A stitch was left in...
WORTH IT$6,000
During my 1week post op the nurse was taking out my sutures or stitches. One was left in, which wasnt apparent to me until i got home. It is now bothering me when i go to wash my incisions and put ointment on it. But i'm not so sure if she left it in for a reason, or if its okay to be in there.

Very Happy with my Results
This is my review from the day of my surgery up until my 2 week post-op follow up.
Day of my surgery my nurse, Dr. lane smith, and anesthesiologist Dr. Crowley (spellchek) were all really nice, and i had no nervous feeling. As i entered the operating room and laid on the table thats when my nerves kicked in. Dr. Crowley made me feel more at ease. I was given oxygen, nice music, and elevated my feet with a massaging pillow. Before I knew it, I was out. Which is what i prefer.
I then woke up in recovery and was cold, so she gave me a blanket, then a little after I felt good enough, i wad wheeled out to my transportation. As i arrived home I was still pretty out of it all day. (Overall day of surgery i felt very accommodated)
The next day i went in to get my bandages removed and see my results. Taking in consideration of my swelling and stiffness, I LOVED MY RESULTS. I think he did a really great job helping me pick the size and type
Of implant. (I even got a followup call from Dr. Crowley which is really nice)
My 2 week followup was today! I had my stitches taken out which was painless, but a bit uncomfortable because the de-sensitation in my breast make every touch feel weird. My incision scaring looked way better than i had expected, so i'm also glad for that. Also the nurse went over creams, and how to apply them. So now its my responsibility to care for my scarring. Then Dr. Lane Smith came in to show me my massage techniques and we went over any following questions and concerns i had. (Overall i felt like it was just the normal standard procedure)

The past week -
I have cleaned the house to make sure I have serenity. Also, I just washed all my sheets this evening before my surgery.
I have been taking Arnica montana 30x (starting 5 days prior to my surgery).
Tomorrow- is the day of my surgery. At my 2 week pre-op I filled out paper work then I met with a nurse of Dr. Lane Smith for my prescriptions, final sizing, and to answer any of my questions. I was a bit surprised I wasn't meeting with Dr. Lane Smith to go over what type of incision, under/over muscle choices I had. But I later found out through a friend who has gone to him, that I do that the day of my procedure.
I will be choosing 350cc mentor memory gel (gummy silicone), under the muscle, inframammry fold incision.
I'll update on my 2-3rd post-op day!

Hope your surgery went well! Did you still end up getting the 350 cc silicone implants? Do you have someone helping you the first few days of your recovery?
You might find it helpful to "heal" with some other women who have recently gotten breast augmentation this July, 2014. Check it out when you're feeling well. Looking forward to your next review update. (If you can remember, be sure to include your stats in your update too!)
