Today marks 6 weeks post op. I have had a lot of trouble with my right breast and am struggling a little. I have yet to go bra shopping as my left and right breasts are varying cup sizes still, my swelling and deep right side bruising has left me uneven and slightly frustrated. My headaches , back pain, and neck pain are fantastic and for this reason I know this was the right decision.
I will continue to update as I go.

Hey all, so I went back to the PS last Monday right side is still very bruised she removed a little more fluid but thinks that my tissue is very bruised and will slowly heal and decrease in swelling. She kept me on Tylenol. I finally asked her how much tissue I had removed so it was 645 grams on my right and 662 grams on my left I am so very pleased with my PS and her office team. I will try to post new pictures later

Sorry you are having so much trouble with the bruising, did you have any lipo? The overall shape is lovely and in the end you will get a wonderful result.

I did have lipo on my sides but it's weird that just the one side has the severe trauma. Thank you

I think it will be difficult for me to have such severe bruising and not freak out! When I first saw you greenish nipple it was really shocking and i thought wow is that maybe dieing skin?? I think you must have a very good surgeon and if she tells you everything will be fine, sure it will! You are good in not overreacting and staying calm! Best wishes for your healing, your new boobies are already in a fantastic shape :)

I work in the medical field In an ortho office that does many surgeries and am kinda used to these things although it was different being me a little. I am slowly starting to heal and the bruising is almost gone. My PS was amazing and supportive. Thanks for your nice comments

Im glad you have a good relationship with your ps. I haven't found out exactly how much was removed from each breast but i know a total of 7.5 pounds were removed. I look forward to hearing great results !!

My PS told my hubby removal weight post surgery but he wasn't really worried about that at the time. I only had about 3 lbs removed and that seems like a huge amount I can't imagine 7 lbs. my 3 lbs feels like a 20 lbs weight was removed! How exciting for you and how much that must have helped your shoulders and back wow congratulations!

Soooo had my first follow up today. On Saturday I noticed that my right side was a little warm and more sore than normal . When I seen my PS today she aspirated about 180 cc's of fluid from my right side and put me back on antibitiotics. I really bruised a lot and had more trauma to that side. She did a great job and was very informative. I was taken off all pain killers but Tylenol . I am hoping this helps the swelling, and relieves the pressure other than that they are beautiful.
