7.5 weeks
Almost at the 2 month mark already.
I'm pleased with how the scars are healing, but the left breast is still taking longer to drop. Probably because of the haematoma and the second op within a few hours.
I also had a very small absess in this one, which now appears to have resolved. It was a sore spot that I could feel a hardness underneath, but I managed to deal with it myself and it's settled down.
I'm still wearing the sports bra in the day and no bra at night now, which is lovely as the tenderness is gone now.
The upper pole fullness has significantly reduced as I knew it would, but they are a vast improvement on what I had before.
My left nipple is smore responsive to cold than the left at the moment, but I'm hopeful they'll even out in due course.
I'm using Kelocote scar gel twice a day since 3/4 weeks.
Wish I had taken some before pics now, but didn't want the reminders at the time!!!

Looking great. I'm getting mine done in a month.. And getting stressed about it lol..did you go down size at all. And that M&S bra you have I'm getting that one but did you get the size you were before or after lol xx
May 2, 2016
Thank you. I got the same size - 32E... Which was just as well because there's a lot of swelling initially. I do feel a little smaller now that's all gone down but the bra still fits fine. I've been holding off buying any new bras until 8 weeks. There's the same amount of tissue as there was before but less skin. Good luck with your op X

Thank you, time is flying I'm all paid and ready just waiting lol.. Im going to wait on the M&S bra till after the op so I get a good fit lol.
. Just wondering when or have you been able to sleep or lie on your front?, I'm booked for a spa day 6 weeks later and trying to see if I'll be able to have a back massage lol xx

How exciting! :)
I've not tried as I never lay on my front, but I would say as soon as it's comfortable to do so. You shouldn't be in pain 6 weeks from now so I'm sure it'll be fine. X

Can you recommend Mr McCulley? I'm based in Nottingham and looking for a reduction and lift - I'd been interested in hearing your opinions on the experience.
June 11, 2016
Hi, yes... Based upon my results, I am glad I chose Mr McCulley. The only down side for me was the distance, as I'm not local. However, that was a minor issue. The reputable London surgeons were a lot more expensive and I didn't want to risk it with the well known cheaper alternatives as you hear too many bad stories. Mr McCulley specialises in breast surgery and is one of the best in this country for reconstruction. So I knew I'd be in safe hands. I know my initial pics looked awful because I bruised so badly but they look great now. I'll post a 3 month update pic soon. Good luck with your journey :)

Thank you so much. It's a big deal picking the right surgeon, and it's good to have feedback from someone who has 'been there, done it!'.
I wish you well with your continued recovery. X

You have beautiful breasts! You must be so pleased with the result. I'm having a breast lift with Mr McCulley on 30th august. Initially it was just the lift but now I need a small implant as I have very little filling and my breasts resemble banana skins. Oh the horror! How are you doing now? Are you happy with the result? I've never had firm breasts and its my dream to wear a triangle bikini top instead of the scaffolding I usually wear to keep them up. ( although the desired look isn't always achieved as push up bikini tops create wrinkles and folds my boobs in half) eurgh! Anyway congratulations on having your new boobs. I can't wait for mine.

Hi, thank you very much! Yes I am pleased. Still going well; scars have faded brilliantly and they are nice and soft now. They have dropped a little more now but still waaaaaayyy better than they were before. I couldn't bear to look at them , let alone anyone else see them! Good luck with your op. Which hospital will you be in?
August 1, 2016
Hi this is brilliant news. I'm in the same boat as you were. I don't even go to the toilet in the morning without putting a bra on.....they are awful. I'm having the op done at the woodthorpe hospital.... I will be skipping in with a big smile on my face. I hope I love my new breasts like me you do yours. Where did you have yours done? How long before you were back at work?
August 1, 2016
I was at the Park, but I'm sure it's just as good. I took almost 2 weeks off, which is just as well, because I got flu whilst recovering :(.
I was driving again after a week (cautiously), so you shouldn't be worried.

4 week update
Hi everyone!
Thought I'd post an update to show you how I'm progressing.
They have started to soften and drop now. Left breast is still lagging behind but the nipple puckering has vastly improved.
I started using Kelocote last week and apply that morning and night. I think it's helped a little.
Still wearing my sports bras all the time... even to sleep in as I find it the most comfortable.
Hoping the bruises will be completely gone by next week.
Until the next time... :)
