4.5 weeks...and post Punta Cana holiday

Hi friends. Well to recap, I am an RN, went back to work after 1 week (still had drains in) and that was dumb. May 3-10 I went to Punta Cana on holiday with instructions.....relax, heal, nothing with arms and take it easy. Well, I can tell you salt water helps. Swelling came down, I took it easy, lazy on the beach. I had lipo to inner thighs and waist and even those areas reduced in swelling. I wore my garments overnight and still a bra. It was nice to wear a bikini and have perky boobies instead of having them on my abdomen. My incisions are so smooth, no puckers, no openings, so darn gorgeous. My PS is a God. Next thing I need is the back fat done. lol.

20 days Post Op.

Hi all, Went to se my handsome and talented PS, Dr. Derek Ford. Whom I highly recommend. I have the best boobies ever. So happy. No puckering at all, the finest work. I still wear a no underwire bra, I feel comfortable in a firm Victoria Secret Sports Bra. Love that thing. I do wear the Marena bra from time to time, but it is just not comfy for me. I sleep in the VS sports bra and stuff socks in my cleavage still as when I move to the side and the girls move, it makes me sore. I did start with Stratderma a scar crème last night. No jogging until 8 week mark. I still swell especially as I am a RN, and working makes me sore. Its hard to slow down. I do "air" my breasts usually at night. I have nipple reaction, but little sensation as of yet. I would advise anyone reading this, to follow what your PS advises. I have seen a lot of bad suggestions on here......that can lead to untoward complications. Remember, your PS had been schooled for many many years. They know best for you, your body, skin type and any pre-existing conditions. Be safe. Heading to Punta Cana tomorrow for a rest. Sun, Salt water, and surf. Be wise and Safe and God Bless all. oxo

13 days post op.....thanks for the advice Peediewife

Yes. Yes. Yes. Swelling down today. Thank the Lord above...honestly. I was a miserable hunk of fluid yesterday. I took advice and had a few martinis last night. (lol) Slept topless......girls gotta get air (thanks to peediewife's advice)and feel much better today. My lipo areas are much better also. Still in a garment from waist to thighs. breast bruising way better also. I love how shirts are baggy !!!!
