I really don't think this sucker is going to move without some help.
I'm using heat, trying to massage it down, and taking the muscle relaxers when able. I cannot take them three times a day or I would be a zombie!
Hoping to get this fixed because I really like my right breast.

Hi, I'm just starting my journey after 100 pound loss. July 26 I'll get breasts and TT. Your before breasts look like mine, and I was wondering if there is any progress since you last posted?

So did that breast ever drop or did you need a revision? With the periareolar (donut) lift, how come he didn't make them (areola) smaller? Sometimes those lifts stretch over time and make your areola larger than before. It's caused by the pressure of implants on the areola incisions. Love to have an update if possible. Is that your dominant side? They usually take longer to drop. I hope all is well, take care.

Monday I went to see my surgeon because I am concerned about my left breast showing no progress. She agreed that it's not moving much. She doesn't think I have capsular contracture, so I'm happy about that.

Because I am still too fresh, we are doing conservative treatment right now. I'm massaging, using heating pad, and taking muscle relaxer that she prescribed. Hopefully, it will drop. I also have some scar tissue where my crease incision is, which she felt might be preventing it from dropping.

Worst case scenario is in a couple months, she may have to go in and move the implant down into the pocket. I feel better because that will be a local procedure with sedation (no general anesthesia). I won't have to miss work or be as restricted as my original surgery.

Either way, at least there is a plan. It's kind of funny though, because I was always so worried about having a complication because of the arm lift I never really worried about my BA!

I will take some pics next week and we can see if I made any progress. Thanks to you ladies for your kind words and prayers :)

I know how frustrating it is when they don't drop at the same time. My right was the problem child but around 3 months it finally behaved. It's great that your PS has a back up plan just in case. ;)

Thanks. I'm praying it drops, but really I don't see a change. At least I know it won't be a major procedure to fix.

Otherwise, I like the right one!

So, I had email these to my PS office. She was in surgery today, but she wants to see me. She was going to see me today, but I can't get up there until Monday.

Now I'm doubly worried because I don't think she would want to see unless something is wrong? I did not speak to her, just the gal that makes appointments.

I hope all goes well for you. You're in my thoughts and prayers!
I have my first post op tomorrow (3/21). Not happy as he could only accommodate 400/425cc and I wanted much bigger... Ah, well. Maybe in about a year and a half I try again...
Good luck with your recovery!! And keep positive; it's all fixable - this or that way!! :-)
