7 Months After Surgery
WORTH IT$5,300
I am finally posting an update. It is now 7 months after surgery and I am very happy with my results. My right breast seems a little smaller than my left but it hasnt totally dropped yet. I had less breast tissue and that breast was smaller so Dr. Gibby put about 5 cc's more saline in so she told me it would take longer to drop. I go for a follow up I think in April or May. This was the best decision I have ever made. !!

Sorry it’s been a while since my last update.
It’s been over 1 week since my 2nd post op visit and it went really well.
I was given pushing up massages to do now so I am doing both up and together twice a day, but I also do them at my desk at work if I can. The more the better she said. Also, I am now able to sleep pretty comfortably on my sides which helps push them together so that’s a plus.
I have gained weight and I know some of it is from the implants themselves but the 2 weeks after my surgery I ate like a pig! I got the ok to start doing low impact workout and walked last night which felt great! My husband is going to get me an elliptical so I can start really working out and I am so excited about it.
I am posting a picture that I took last night. I think they look great and my husband loves them too!! Big plus!!
My incisions look really good and I am now on my second set of gel strips so they last a long time and really help the scaring. I still have big bumps under there but that should eventually go away.
I still have to be careful doing certain things with my arms like pushing or pulling like when cleaning dishes or the house etc. But I feel great and am really happy I did this.. now just lose a few pounds!
Until Next Time!!

They look great! Can I ask why you chose her over her husband Dr. Rohrich? Or was he even an option for you?

Sorry for late reply! I didn't really have any interest in a male dr. I felt that a woman would know more about what I really wanted vs what the male dr thought I should get. It may not be that way for everyone but that seemed to be my experience when I went for consultations.

That makes sense to me. So you loved her, liked her a lot? Things you didn't like? I see them both (her and her husband same day) on February 3rd.

That is awesome!!! They are a great group of ladies! Love Gloria!
I should be going for my next follow up in the next month or so! Can't believe it has been almost 7 months!
Congrats!!

Were you in a lot of pain when you came out of anesthesia?
February 13, 2014
No.. I was very sleepy but later that day I was able to get up and walk to the couch, bathroom etc. I made sure that I took my pain meds when necessary and as directed. There was a lot of pain, mostly when I would move or sleep which lasted for several weeks. At one point I worried that I may have made the wrong decision between the pain and the way they were so big and swollen. After 1 week, I tried to clean the kitchen counters and NO....
This was the best decision I have ever made!!! Any surgery is going to have pain so that is normal. You wont regret it!

Thanks. :) I'm ok with having the pain, definitely worth it, just worried about a shock waking up from anesthesia and BAM pain!

Today I feel great! Almost back to my 100% self. My pain is virtually gone. I do have some sharp pains in my left breast when it moves a certain way. I was able to actually sleep flat last night and even some on my side!!! Yay! My incision sites are almost not even noticeable (have kept on the silastic gel strips. They are awesome! My sites are still tender and hard but know that will go away in time.
I still feel muscle twinges when I use my arms a certain way but no pain.
I am pushing them together everyday, several times a day with no issues and they can almost touch each other. Should get new massages to do next follow up which is Tuesday.
My breasts have home down a lot as far as swelling and they don't look so odd shaped anymore!! Love them! Will post updated pics soon!
