Girl we are coming along....I'm feeling better about it as well...I look at my before pics and I'm like he had his work cut out for him lol...I'm gonna see what exercising can do as well before I decide to do a rd 2 which would be Liposculpture. What type of garment are you wearing I think I'm gonna order a smaller size so I can get more compression.
What did you get to your boobs
I got a breast augmentation , no implants...
Just a lift ?
Yes.. No implants!! I was a 34 DD pre-lift. My ps said if I wanted to go bigger then get implants if not get a lift. I did not want to go bigger, he said a lift will correct my saggyness while maintaining my DD size.. Although I feel like I'm Smaller I'm still happy with the size.
Hot Momma! You look fabulous! Don't feet about the healing woes; just drink water, exercise, and rest!
To all smokers, don't smoke cigs for a while. It will jack up the healing process 4 real. The superficial infections will heal if cares for properly.
Also, our bodies ar like the earth, created to repair itself! The repair process ain't so purdy, but it gets better and becomes like new!!!
I had the infected drain site, hard bulges, oosing center of my incision, sutures poking through my skin along the incision and more, etc. I still swell a bit along my incision, but honestly I feel like King Kong on top of the ESB! Fit to climb a mountain, but now in a crop-top and tights , lmao!
