One more thing...

Hey it's me again..I am 'crowding' it all into one session because I will be not around for a while. Serious about getting on with my life.
I (and others) have wondered why everyone looks so different after surgery? Some have to use a band or worry about dropping where others look like they dropped 1st day after surgery? Obviously age, skin elasticity, size and profile of implant, lots of lower pole, and chest wall profile all are a factor in this.. but I was wondering if some of it is due to the size of the implant pocket. I for one feel like my pockets were over-sized. That supposedly helps for CC complications. I read about this on this website months ago:

Just a thought...not a fact. I forgot to ask my PS if he over-sized mine.

Links for scar massage..utube
I forgot to post 2 links about scar massage ... sent to me from my niece. (she has experience with scarring..due to a car accident years ago.) Some of it does not apply to breasts..but TT's will definitely benefit.

Additional comments from my niece:
"It is probably best to lay down while massaging instead of sitting up. I
think you'll have easier access to the tissue that way. You might have
to massage with just the opposite hand. I had a mole removed on one breast
and found that to be easiest. I also recommend doing some massage with the
same arm up, like when doing a self breast exam. I feel like there could be
adhesions that would be notable in that position that you wouldn't notice
with your arm down."
Hope this helps .... for anyone struggling with scarring. I do feel some scar protrusions on the vertical..but it does not seem to show.

Hi gals...don't know why my edits say '1 month post'. My surgery was October 3rd.

I am sorry you aren't happy, but I truly think you look great. Happy healing--inside and out.

Thanks Natialian :-))..I feel foolish saying I am not satisfied with the results especially when I look at the preop photos and the fact that I've had no complications. It's not that I am super unhappy..I just don't feel like it was 'worth it'..especially the 10k. I always have 'buyers remorse' over expensive items. lol
