Great results! Do you mind me asking how many cc's of fat were placed in each breast?

I'm not sure the doc told me he took about 500 cc's from my thighs so I guess he distributed that between them both.

Glad it went well! No I wasn't given anything and when I asked, Mr Mallucci suggested I wear some spanx which I happened to have at home. I'd suggest a girdle or something like that to help the swelling on your tummy. I had the lipo on my legs but I also got pretty bloated around the tummy after surgery anyway so for you it will be a double whammy.?

Hey,, just seeing how you are doing? I'm like just over 2 weeks post op now and trying to speed up my recovery with the heal gel! I'm using it so quickly because keep slapping it on so need to go back and get some more, I've only been using it 4 days and I've used 1/4 at least!! Did you have any stitches poking out? I have a few poking out but only by a a millimeter or so and don't know what to do with them!? Was going to go back and see nurse and just check if she can do anything for me. Did you have these or did they pluck any other stitches out of you? I had s few tweezers out in my second post op appt. hope you are healing well now, how are they looking? How much volume of fat has stayed? I'm hoping mine stay like this now but I guess we won't know for a few months hey?! Would love to hear your updates! Xx

Wow. They look fantastic! I hope you healed nicely and are happy with the end result. I'm 21 and have breasts like your before photos, only they are completely different sizes too! Really inspiring, once I can afford it I hope to have boobs like your post op ones!

So after my little scare I got hold of the clinic spoke with my dressing nurse and she reassured me that the problem was being caused by a stitch not dissolving. Anyway it started to heal over fine but then another area on the same nipple started doing the same thing, so I spoke to my ps's secretary and she got me an appointment to see Mr Malluci very quickly. At the appointment he told me that this sort of thing was normal and that sometimes the dissolvable stitches take a long time to dissolve and can cause this sort if irritation. He said there's nothing that can be done unless the end of the stitch actually pokes out of the skin, then you would pull it out. He was very pleased with how I'm healing and told me I'm doing well and not to worry. I came away feeling reassured and calm, and sure enough everything healed up on its own after a week or two. My scars under the breast have turned pink and firm and are a bit raised in places but he also told me that was normal and to expect them to get worse before they get better. I have a follow up with him in about 4 months time. My breast are still tender and I can't sleep in my front yet, but tomorrow I plan to start back at the gum with some low impact excercises. The areas above the breast where the fat transfer was done are slowly softening up and have gone a bit lumpy to the touch but it's not visible and I guess that's just part of the process of the fat settling..or being re absorbed. Anyway here's some pictures of what I look like today.

Bit of a scare

So today is exactly one month post op and tonight I've had a bit of a scare...I've had a bit of redness a scabbing on my right breast for a while now that I thought was healing. A few days ago it started oozing a little so I had been putting antiseptic cream on it and placed a steri strip over the area. Anyway tonight as I was doing my evening routine of massaging in my scar gel I noticed that it was oozing from the steri strip - I took off the strip and the scab came off with it leaving an open wound about half a centimeter in diameter. It's right at the edge of my nipple. I cleaned up the area with some antiseptic solution and as I did noticed something hard inside the wound. I figured it must be a stitch so I got out the tweezers a pulled and out came a stitch with a big blob at the end which looked like a large knot. These are supposed to be dissolvable stitches but this one clearly hadn't dissolved. I'm hoping that that's what caused the oozing etc and that now it's gone it will heal up. I called the out of hours number for the clinic and got my doctors secretary. She was very nice and gave me the number of the dressing nurse but unfortunately her phone went to voicemail. I left a message so we'll see if she calls back tomorrow as it's quite late now. Feeling a bit scared but my boyfriend as always was great at reassuring me. Hopefully by tomorrow things will be on the mend :(
