So over the Big Boobs - Martins Ferry, OH

UPDATED FROM fatlp69

Week 5

fatlp69May 5, 2017
I thought the incisions would look better by now, but hey they don't hurt and I know will get better with time. It will all get better with time. The most important part is I have been neck and shoulder pain free since surgery day!! I will now be able to do more at the gym too. With a little more weight loss, hopefully my side boob fat will go away. The 33 lbs I had lost prior to surgery did nothing to decrease my breast size so I'm not worried about losing another 30 lbs and it affecting my breast size any. This was totally worth it. Heck I was in more post-op pain after having my gallbladder removed.

As far as scars, I'm one year post-op and mine were really red until at least 9 months, and some sections are still red. So don't worry!

Wow thanks. I am just surprised at how long healing takes. I am 6 weeks post-op today and still look like this pic.

Hi, do you mind sharing what size bra you wore before and what size you are now? Also, do you know how many grams of tissue he removed?

I cannot remember the exact grams but I had just over 1.5 lbs removed per side. It doesn't sound like much even to me , but my neck and shoulder pain was gone the same day.

Was this done by Dr. Juggenberg?

Is this normal?

fatlp69April 23, 2017
I'm 2 days shy of four weeks. I'm not a smoker or diabetic. The left breast has an area just below the nipple that the dressing sticks to no matter what ointment I use. When I remove the dressing it bleeds. It just doesn't seem to be healing properly. I also have stitches starting to poke thru the incisions in different areas now. Not sure what is up since I had my sutures removed at two weeks. Calling my surgeon tomorrow but just wondered if anyone else has had these issues.

The desolvable stitches poke out i still after two months have a cpl sticking out. It is normal if bothers you use tweezers n gently pull it out if painful leave them alone till the naturally fall out

The stitches they removed were not desolvable

That's pretty much what the doc said. I just wasn't expecting stitches to be poking out. I did have to pull one black stitch out that got missed.

Back to work

Today I went back to work. Felt great until about mid-day then I really got tired. I still took my tired butt to workout after, even if it was a modified workout. Came home sat in the recliner and crashed. Then I was rudely awakened an hour later by a telemarketer. Tomorrow is another day.
