Healing but a ways to go yet

I have an appt with my PS on the 13th. I started making a list of my new founded questions for him along with expressing my disappointments with my Mommy Makeover (in my case Grammy Makevrr :). I have read other PS advise here with waiting for scars to nature before revisions. Some suggesting 6 -8 months others a year. Any advise from experience would be appreciated. I will feel better getting a second opinion next week and seeing what my PS advises as well.

Your body can do amazing things and you will get there. The surgery is just the beginning of the journey and the healing is a constant process. When I look at my boobs, I'm know that mine are not perfect (only 4-weeks post) but I also know there is healing going on deep beneath the tissue and it takes time for everything to start to look normal. I also know that my body can reject the procedure at any time. Keep your thoughts positive and know that while you aren't happy with your results now, they can do remarkable work to repair the scarring. I'm an older patient too and I take a lot of vitamins especially vit. C and drink tons of water with lime/lemon juices as its promotes healing and tissue damage. I know it's hard to keep a positive mental attitude, I went through a little funk a few a few weeks ago but it does get better.My ps advised me that 6-12 months is the norm for the final results and revisions.

I decided to make an appointment with another Local PS for a second opinion for the revisions I will receive. The PS I am scheduled with is one of the 6 PS's that a had a consult with before choosing. I was really struggling with the decision. I went with the PS that I received a better price with.

Thanks for sharing, this is educational. I'm so sorry for you that you went thru such a trying experience. I think you looked great before, and you look great now. :) Your man is a keeper if he lets you know how beautiful you are now :)

I am still healing and from this updated photo you can see how much work still needs to be done. I have decided to get a second opinion to assure that should hold on to faith that my PS is going sll he can. I will need scar revisions on breast and abdomin for old scar (I believe not much if anything was done there like it was suppose to be) . My PS said he could revisit that and do more there when I go for my Breast augmentation surgery. On the third surgery he will insert implants and remove scars he also plans to march up size of my nipples as well . I really appreciate & need continued prayers that this will all be corrected and put behind me and get back to feeling good . I know it's a long stretch but hopefully I will change my "not worth" it to "worth it" and be happy with the final results. So far I am very disappointed that this all happened but trying to stay positive.
