Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

2 Months Post/random Thoughts
At 2 months post I’m very happy with my results and my experience. I’m 5’6” 135 and 57 yrs.
I followed my docs instructions to the letter. I did not handle or even look at my new breast often just when I changed dressings.. I had a dry healing method. So didn’t get breasts wet for 6 weeks important to have a hand held shower nozzle when doing that
I have worn a very supportive bra 24 -7 and have followed doctors instructions to the letter. I slept on my back almost upright the first 2 weeks and then at 30 degree angle for at least 6 weeks until I felt no pressure at all when I laid on my side.
I am only lightly massaging the lower scar area on the left side where I have a few firm spots and it is pulling up a bit at the T and using very little vitamin E
I massage once every other day or so. I expect that to relax in the next few months. More work was done on that side so more trauma. I have 6 months to consider any revision but am optimistic that the area pulling up will relax, I will speak with my surgeon about options if it does not settle down.
I am still swollen and that fluctuates depending on food and drink. A low salt/sugar/caffeine/spicy diet is best
I can tell almost immediately after eating or drinking something if I’m going to react to those things. I had soup crackers and plenty of water the first week...then chicken
And eggs kept it simple lots of protein and more water...drank 5-6 bottles in 25 hours.
By week 4 I was back to regular diet. No real issues with constipation after surgery but good to have something incase you do.
The tissue removed under my left arm/under breast/off breast took with it the tissue infected with nerve pain from shingles I had summer of 2017. Doc also removed lymph nodes on left side. I may not ever have had a BR if it weren’t for that horrid nerve pain..or PHN.
So I feel very fortunate that we were able to accomplish that. There was no promise that the surgery could alleviate the nerve pain that laid exactly where my bra sat and ran into and under my left breast. I feel very fortunate.
I’m currently a solid 36C and think I’ll end up a 36B but am happy where I’m at too.
The most remarkable part of my experience is that I have no more pain. This was one of the best decisions of my life. I walk taller, feel proportionate. Grooves on shoulders are easing up too. And PHN gone.
I slept on my back upright for 6 weeks and am wearing good underwire support with underarm support during day now and jog bras with molded support at nite.
I may be getting a stitch coming out, I had one before went to doc office and they removed it for me. Looks like a little bump isn’t painful just irritating.
My best advise when you get home from surgery is to slow down. And before surgery my best advise is to slow down.
Talk to at least 3 doctors before and research the procedure look at many reviews not just worth it reviews so you know the risks involved ie...make certain only one doctor will be involved in your procedure...I have read some bad reviews from people who have 2 completely different boob results done by 2 different doctors :/ so be careful.
The longer you abstain from smoke or drink the better as
Circulation and hydration are CRUCIAL to a good outcome.
Then when it’s done rest a lot, don’t overdo it,don’t lift your arms you just had MAJOR surgery!!! You’ll have better days and worse days, rest on all of those days.
You’ll heal about 10% a month...let that sink in and PROTECT your investment whether insurance covered it or not! Best of luck to you.
