Dr Silverman, in ottawa did a great job, very calm, patient and professional. I'm a 51 year old 130 pound, 5"3, mother of one, never breast feed. I'm currently a 36C and just wanted a lift. This is my first day post op, still sore, swelling gone down a bit. Bandages still on and wearing a bra. Have a appointment to see him Friday for a check up on how they look. Will provide photo's soon.

Thanks for sharing your journey. I'm sure the other members of this community will be interested in seeing your post-op photos. What type of lift did you get?

Went to Dr Silverman office and they removed my bandages they said nipples pink and really not overly bruised. Still wearing some tap around the stitches and can now take a shower. Third day post op and feel good still a little tender, but can sleep a lot better, just a small amount of pain on the sides.

Was this a full anchor lift or Lolli pop lift? We have similar stats and I'm debating on small implant to inflate breast. Did PS advise not to do implant? Thank you thank you. Hope to see some post pictures when you get around to it.

I believe it was a lolli pop lift, but he did remove some, because I quit smoking and of course gained weight, wear, yes my breast, so he removed some, not sure what size, I will be still swollen after 6 days. Hope this helps. No implants, just a light and tuk. Didn't won't to get implants and remove them in ten year or so..Plus implants were to big on me..

They already look so great. I am really hopeful you can continue to post your story and pics several months up. Your journey gives me such hope! Was the surgery 3-4 hours?

Did you need an IV in your hand? I am a wreck about needles. Did childbirth 3 times with no intervention and at home bc medical equipment scares me. I had a serious surgery when I was 10 from dog bite and needed 2 blood transfusions...
December 3, 2015
That's horriable about the dog bite, sorry to hear that. Yes I did, they put it on the top of my hand, I think if your considering a breast lift, you'll be ok this time with the needle. I just love my boobies, now, it's well worth the needle, put yourself somewhere else when they put the needle in. Like a beach! Don't worry, wasn't that bad! Good luck

Thank you. I appreciate your kind words. I am following your story. Your boobs look great. I have 3 kids ages 8-3. I feel like my boobs can be thrown over each shoulder and when I lay down they disappear into the sides of the bed. I am curious if your boobs will stay on your chest when you lay down.

OHHH Ya, believe me these girl 's don't move, lying down, standing on my head! This is my 8 day post op and they feel much better today. Will updated with photo..Tomorrow. I will be going to get the stitches out of the line down from the loli pop. Will let u know, what that was like as well. Do it Heather, it;s make you feel sooo much happier and less self confident of them... I would absolutely do it again...
December 3, 2015
You're RAD! Thank you. Thank you. I will start meeting with PS in Summer 2016!!!

1 week post op

Liz64155
This past week, been laying low, today I did alot of stuff, driving, grocery bags, a little cleaning around the house. And tonight I'm sore in the left side underneath my breast and kinda on my ribs.. Not sure if is because I did all that today. Nipples look good and pink, swelling on right breast has gone down more then the left.
Oh Yes I thought I added my picture after the post op, but it looks like I put the same picture in. Will updated sorry, about that.

How are you feeling now? Are you happy with the way they look after a year? I'm in the Ottawa area too and looking to have a breast lift (possibly with implant) as well.
