1 month post

One month and 2 days post op. I am happy with my girls!'

WORTH IT$3,837
I am currently using bio oil on my breast 2x a day until I get the ok from the doctor to start silicone sheets. However, I must say I am pleased with my results and the minimal scarring thus far. The only issues I currently have is
1. No nipple sensation
2. Unable to sleep on my stomach(it just doesn't feel comfortable yet)

I just had mine done 2 days ago and worried about the scaring.. What are you using
Currently the only thing I'm using is bio oil
Ok is that working good for you?
And how long after getting the lift done did you start to use the bio oil?
So far it's been great. You can barely see the scar
That's great to hear!! I got a breast lift and smart lip and so happy I got it done. You look great and your posts prepared me for the lift. Thank you so much for sharing and responding to my questions.
Your welcome brandy!!how is your recovery coming along
Its coming along pretty good. Just ready for these stiches to dissolve. I'm ready to sleep on my stomach again lol.. Yours look great!!! They did an awesome job on them!!! How are you feeling?
You're looking wonderful. I love the perfect areola he created. I will look into Bio oil (did Nardini recommend it?) I still can't sleep on my stomach and I'm 6 months post - if I do I wake with a soreness in my arms and upper body that takes some time to go away, but I was told in due time I'll be able to. Apropos nipple sensation, it is hit or miss (in my opinion). I was a girl who didn't get stimulated from nipple fondling, but now enjoy the new erotic sensation. I do hope you get the feeling back in the coming months.
Thank you. Dr. Nardini dos an awesome job, I love my new breast. However I too, have a hard time sleeping on my stomach. I wake up with soreness in mummy breast that I usually have to massage away. It's been uncomfortable for me and I feel like I can't get s good nights sleep. Hopefully in time this will improve. Also, still no nipple sensation! I'm patiently waiting!! I have another post op next week. Can't wait to read up on more of your recovery and progress!!
Beautiful
your breasts are beautiful. I am super worried about getting a breast lift with no Implant(bc im a dd, a d when Im thinner) bc I want that upper pole fullness. U definitely have that. How are they coming along? Have you regained your nipple sensation?
Do you still not have any nipple sensation?!
Very little but not the same as before

Post op visit

No more tape! I have 2 small openings where the sutures were. Currently applying bacitracin to incision site. Minimal scarring, looks like it will probably heal nicely. I go back to see the dr in 4 weeks. Than we will discuss a possible tummy tuck with lipo to complete my look and totally give me back the confidence that I need!!

Hi glad to hear you are feeling better. Has the sensation returned any yet in the nipple area? Im afraid of that also.
Unfortunately no. I still don't have any sensation and I'm praying it comes back. My nipples still get erect every now and than.. So I know some of those nerves are working! My doctor said in due time it shall return. I got my fingers crossed.
Thank you so much for updating. Yess thats def a good sign! Im happy for you. and over all its still worth it Im going to go head and do it girl. Will be in March its to close to Christmas now to try and do it. So new year new me lol tired of being self conscious abt my breasts you know.
I definitely know how you feel! Getting my breast done has definitely boosted my confidence a lot. For the first time ever I wore a deep v neck dress and my breast were sitting very pretty!!! I killed the outfit
Yessss!!! I know thats right. I cannot wait. All I do is look at the reviews and pics like im obsessed lol
Congratulations! The doctor did a great job. Regarding the feeling coming back some people do get it back gradually but everyone is different. I'm 9 months post and I would say I'm around 80% but hoping to get my normal sensation to 100%...good luck with everything:)
Thank you so much!! 9 months sound long but I'll be patient!! Still got my fingers crossed!
hey girlie,
Glad to see everything is going well. That tape you have on. Is that still surgical tape Or is it that scar minimizing tape? What have you been doing for that btw
It's still surgical tape. I had a small opening so the dr decided to keep it on until my next visit which is next week. I have purchased some silicone strips for scar therapy. I brought scar away. They actually sell it at target. I'll post some reviews on it once I start using it
