Had 425cc silicone moderate plus mentor implants a year ago with a full lift . Going in for revision on March 23,15. Using Strattice . Do not want to change size . I understand after having four kids my muscles can't hold up a larger implant and at 5'4 , 125 pounds I'm already a 34DDD . Hopefully this gives me a larger look anyways by pushing them back up and into place ! I can't find a swim suit or bra to fit without the nipple coming out the top of it ! First surgery was a nightmare .

It was nightmare due to a hematoma I got and had to go back into surgery . It would have happened with any Dr. I had no idea a lift was so painful . It was worse than my hysterectomy and having four kids out together ! I got a second opinion before going back to original Dr for help and the second Dr said my Dr did a great job !

Oh wow. Sorry about the hematoma. Hope all turned out well with that. Yes, lifts are painful, and you need to be careful to not lift anything heavy or raise your arms above your head. Like I said earlier, stay on top of the pain and you should feel pretty comfy. Glad the second doctor liked your doctor's work! I'm so happy for you! Rest easy...

Good luck, Beachsun. Please keep us updated. On the 17th I had a revision as well. So far all is going well. Are you down-sizing or going with the same size?

Glad all turned out well for you. I'm still high, too, and hope to stay high. I'll bet you cannot wait to see them unwrapped. Please continue taking care of yourself and stay on top of the pain so you aren't in any discomfort. When you are able, update and let us know how well you like your new breasts! Happy healing!

Why did you have bruising on your abdomen?

August 25, 2015
That is a good question! I even asked that ! I had a hematoma during my first surgery and was taken back a second time . All I can think is the blood puddled onto that side during my second surgery!
