Revision Required

J

I haven't updated this in quite some time as life just got so crazy busy and I was enjoying my boobies. Although I am happy with my result I will be having a revision next year to try and correct the left implant. My surgeon said its possible the left pocket wasn't made low enough so the implant is stuck up quite high under my muscle. It feels uncomfortable at times. I am so happy with the right and am hoping it wont take much to get leftie to look similar. My surgeon said the revision wont be any where near as painful as the first surgery and there will be NO cost. This is why I chose my surgeon !! I knew if anything wasn't "right" he would really look after me so for that I am grateful. I'm nervous about the surgery and the possibility of complications but I will try and stay positive. Its just another thing I can get through so I can enjoy my gorgeous boobies, body and feeling more womanly. I know some people say a surgery like this doesn't change your life but I disagree. It has totally changed my life and I am so glad I had it done even though I need to have a 2nd surgery MUCH earlier than expected. Sending a hug and kiss to those who need a revision. I think it can be quite emotionally draining ! Hope everyone is enjoying there new assets. If anyone is in a similar situation and needs some support I'm more than happy to chat !! :)

I'm glad that you are getting everything fixed. I wish that my doctor was more caring about his patients. ..once he has his money all he wants me to do is go away :( several docs have confirmed that one of my implants is off centre and dr. Richardson thinks that I should put up with it...shame on him!!

Oh hun that's such a shame. Are you in Melbourne ? Maybe you could get another opinion ? Are you unhappy with your result or is it not very noticeable ? X

One week post op appointment today

Today I'll be going to the one week post opp appointment. I cant wait to be fitted for a proper sports bra (I've only been wearing a comfort one) and it will also be good to see the size of the incisions and have them cleaned. I'm pretty sure Craig is also going to show me how to massage, I really hope this isnt too painful.

I had a scare the other night ... I was trying to get comfy in bed and asked my boyfriend to put a pillow on my right side. He hitched it up and my arm was pushed back way too far ! It felt like a muscle was being torn off the bone, and the only thing I could do was cry .... it was like a cry I have never had before I was howling and couldnt talk ! I was pretty upset, I thought id damaged my boobies but there was so swelling or bruising so I'm hoping I just pulled a nerve or muscle. The right has been pretty sore compared to lefty especially since that incident so I will make sure I mention it to Craig today.

The implants are also still sitting really high which is kinda freaking me out, its like what if they get stuck and never drop !! but I'm sure the massage will help the girls head down !!

I definitely dont feel like I could go back to work today but maybe Im just being a sook !! I havent attempted driving yet, I will also ask Craig about this.

Anyways I will write an update and post more pics soon

Hi there, I just got my breast augmentation surgery done with craig 2 days ago and am a bit concerned about how high they are sitting and the swelling. Have yours dropped down a lot? How long did it take for them to start settling? Would you be able to post/send me some photos? Thank you I really appreciate it. Kind regards :)

Getting better every day !

Made it to day 5 and I'm really surprised at the recovery ! Maybe I have a high pain tolerance but ladies if your getting your breast aug done soon try not to stress its really not painful just uncomfortable ! Its important to stay on top of the pain. Every time I took my pills I would write it down then set an alarm 4 - 6 hours later so I never let myself get too uncomfortable.

I had a bit of a cry last night .. mostly because I'm healing without my boyfriend here and when he does visit I cant hug him properly so I'm really missing him atm. Also the implants (you can see in the photos) are sitting really high and kinda under my arm pit. I was expecting them to sit high but not this high and not this so square ! I am trying to stay relaxed and have faith they will drop and look gorgeous eventually.

Another thing I feel a bit crappy about is weight gain but I know that once I can I will get back into the gym and healthy eating !! All in good time.

If anyone has any questions please dont hesitate to ask I'd be happy to help

Goodluck to the girls who have surgery coming up and hope everyone is having a good recovery !
