So it's been about a month since my breast lift! Still very happy. I was concerned around 11 days because the at T junction was healing a little slow, but followed up with my surgeon and he wasn't too concerned. He had me put some tape to reenforce the surrounding areas. At about 2 weeks post op, I had a stitch spitting through and he just left it and trimmed it around the one month mark. Things are healing up nicely. I went back to work at 8 days post op (I do hair) and felt I was in decent shape just moving slower than usual. I am not able to start wearing an underwire bra but havent found one that does sit on top of my incision on the sides so just wearing it for a short while. Started walking at the gym this week and ps says I can step it up a little by next week and so on

It's been a week since my breast lift surgery and all is going well. The first day I was mainly groggy and stayed on top of the pain meds. I have two small children 3 and 1 and they stayed at my mil house overnight, while I was home with my husband. He was home with my all weekend and I was back taking care of them by myself by Monday. I had an hour or so of relief each day from a friend or my mil, while my husband was at work. Pain has been minimal, I just mainly tire easily. I am back to work tomorrow! Here's a photo of 1 week out. I still wear either a surgical bra (like a sports bra bought from amazon) or a sports bra 24/7, mainly because it keeps me supported and comfortable throughout the day. I feel like it helps with the pain. It's not too tight, but comfortable. The steri strips have started to come off and my boobs are now a little softer. The swelling is going down as well. Dr says not to wear a bra with a wire for 1 month. Being that they are very perky now I don't think you can tell I'm not wearing a wired bra! Forgot to add I am 5'4, 135lbs
