Wow looking great! Pretty much perfect, imo. Just curious do you plan on doing any kind of scar therapy? Also do you mind sharing what size implants you have. Please excuse if I missed that information below. I believe you mentioned below that your implants were also over the muscle. I have “overs” also. There seem to be very few of us around here with overs. Talk later :-)

I have no idea what size implants I had in and can’t lay my hands on the paperwork. My bra size was a 32f after the first surgery and is now a 34dd after the uplift. With regards to scar therapy I am massaging daily with bio oil at the moment at the surgeons recommendation

If you want to know the size your surgeon should have it in his medical records. It’s usually mentioned in the operative report. Each implant usually has a manufacture warranty and a serial number so it’s important to have that information. Good luck. :-)

5 week the change (last one!!!! Yay!) I’m counting the days till next Thursday when I see my ps to be signed off ???? then I can wear nice underwear and tops again...so excited!! Excuse the redness around scars on these pics- it always itches a bit when I pull the tapes off and I can’t resist a little scratch!

Looking great! I want to suggest using some kind of lubricant (i.e. soap/water or medical adhesive remover wipes) when removing your tape. It’s best to avoid irritating your incisions. Not to mention your skin may still be numb and you may not feel the discomfort until after the fact. Good luck.

I first tried removing them after showering but found when they were wet they became more sticky- at the end of a week they are peeling anyway and come off very easily dry.

That’s good to hear. The only reason I suggested it is because you mentioned the itching when you removed your tape, which could be a sign of irritation. I also understand what you’re saying about them getting sticky when wet. I’ve found medical adhesive remover wipes more effective then soap and water for removing sticky tapes and adhesives. I even use them to clean the sticky adhesive that gathers along the edge of my embrace scar strips. Good luck. :-)
