Feeling like Frankenstein these days

  • 27 May 2017
  • 26 days post
So it's a little after 4 weeks since I had my procedure and I must say I am still happy with the smaller boobs however I still get sharp pains here and there and I was a bit taken back when we removed the bandages earlier this week. I looked at myself when I returned home and felt like Frankenstein. When I reviewed other pics, I assumed I too would be further Along approaching the 1month mark. My nurse said healing takes time. I knew that, but the scars are very painful to touch and my nipples are super sensitive.
If i brush against something, I get a very sharp pain. I am looking forward to happy healing.



Still sore

I'm still pretty sore but hanging on there. I decided to stop taking the prescribed pain meds because they were giving me a shortness of breath. The breast are taking shape and I think I'll be a full d. I'm still swollen from the Vader lipo so I can't really see result just yet. Keeping fingers crossed.

So the bruising has begun

Hi, I am 3 days after surgery and I'm feeling very pleased. There are periods when I have sharp pain in my breast and stomach but nothing that would cause me to be too concerned. I do noticed that my nipples are very very sensitive. More sensitive that they have ever been. I'm looking forward to see how the body and breast shapes out.

Dr. Rowe is extremely patient and super knowledgeable. He's met with me 3x so far in an effort to answer all of my questions. I appreciate his honesty and him being candid in regards to my expectations of the breast reduction and liposuction. As mentioned, I have very loose skin (pics will come soon) and he feels aggressive lipo (which I suggested)will leave me with heaps of sagging skin. With that said, I am moving forward with Vaser lipo and a breast reduction. Looking forward to keeping you updated. In regards to his staff, they are very friendly and move really fast. (Almost too fast. ) I went in for a consultation and had a surgery date on the books a weeks later. (Just the date, not actual surgery!) what I really like is that I can reach his office at any time. I have sent emails to the office manager as very odd hours and Heard back within the day. I appreciate that level of attention that was missing from a few other surgeons I've visited. I'll excited to keep you posted on my experience.
