Three weeks ago I had a breast reduction surgery...

WORTH IT
Three weeks ago I had a breast reduction surgery and a lift. If I knew how happy I would be with the results and how great I was going to feel, I would have done it years ago. My breasts were excessively large and gravity had pulled them down making them seem even larger. I was so unhappy with my appearance. Even though I am fairly thin & have a small frame, I always looked fat like a big balloon. Breasts are not made of muscle & when they are belly button warmers, I looked fat. Shopping for clothes was a nightmare. Clothes that fit my bust were oversized everywhere else. Now I can finally shop for tops and dresses that fit my entire body not just my chest. I always avoided button up tops like the plague. No matter how much tape or how many pin I used, they always gap. Clothes for large breasted women are overpriced and pretty lingerie is impossible to find. Even though I am the age of a granny, I did not want to wear “granny” bras. Like most women, I wanted pretty lingerie. My ugly bras cost around $100, and sports bras were even more expensive. The last and most important reason I wanted this surgery is to get relief from the constant back and neck pain. I lived through physical therapy and chiropractic treatments for years that helped for short periods, but the pain always returned. I had my surgery 21 days ago, and I couldn’t be happier. The surgery was so easy, and I never felt much pain. Even though Dr. Walding gave me pain meds, I never really needed them. Also I never needed any help. Of course, my husband drove me home from surgery, and he measured and emptied my drains the first day, but after that I took care of them. The dreaded drains were not bad at all just more of a nuisance. I drove myself to my first post op appointment and even went shopping a couple of times while I had them. Dr. Walding removed them after a week. I had read that removing
the drains was painful, but Dr. Walding assured me it wouldn’t hurt, and, as always, he was right. I thought it would take weeks or months before I would be happy with my new breasts, but I was happy from the first day after surgery. And they get better every week. I am back to business as usual with my only restriction not to lift anything heavy. Last week I started going back to gym, but for now I am only walking on the treadmill. Before surgery I walked 5 miles a day, and I’m back up to that distance just not as fast as before surgery. I plan to take it easy until the doctor tells me I am all healed. I will probably start some light leg exercises soon but just nothing with my upper body yet. I am so pleased with everything about my surgery. Of course, the reason I am so happy is because I did my homework and choose the right plastic surgeon Dr. Walding.

Hi! If you don't mind me asking, where and what type of injections have you gotten from him? I noticed he was an expert injector. I'm nervous about getting it done so any info would be appreciated. Thank u

I've had many injections from Dr Walding. I've tried several drs. in Dothan and my former hometown, Destin, Fl. Dr. Walding is the best! Ive had Botox, Juvederm & Sculptra. The fillers are a little painful but nothing bad. And they use a numbing cream on your face. He's going to do an abdominalplasty & use the fat from stomach to do fat graphs on face. This is supposed to be permanent unlike Botox or Juvederm. Also I have never had a bruise from Dr. Walding. The first time I got injections I looked like I had been in a fight for 4 or 5 days. You can't go wrong with Dr. Walding. He's great.
Good luck.
Wow what a nice job, you look wonderful. You seem to have bounced back so quickly without issues. I am happy for you and than you for sharing your journey with us.
