5 weeks post Revision Capsulorrhaphy Surgery for Lateral Displacement - Pittsburgh, PA

I wanted to update everyone. Everything healed very nicely with the revision. All the sutures kept everything in place. No side boob and no drooping. They are nice and soft and look very natural. My scars are almost completely gone although the area at the incision is very sensitive. My nipples are just NOW starting to get feeling again and nerve regeneration but it's happening. I would highly recommend a revision to anyone who isn't happy. Also, my boobs used to look gigantic because they were so far apart (I have a fairly narrow frame) and now with them staying put in the front I look 5 lbs thinner just because they don't stick way out on top. I have been training for a marathon and have zero issues running with them too which makes me happy..

I thought it would be nice to post a 7 month update and some photos. For the most part things look really good. A lot of sensation is starting to come back although my incision area is very TENDER still. It's been one area that actually hurts and doesn't seem to be healing as fast as before. The scar is also very dark and isn't healing with nearly the speed my original surgery did. I find this to be really odd. Anyway, overall things look good as you can see. One nipple is still off to the side a little bit but nothing worth doing surgery over and if I massage things it pulls back towards the middle. I did very little massaging which is probably why I'm still high but I am almost 43 and gravity will pull everything down so I'll just let it happen naturally. I do love that things are now nicely in place and I don't feel so huge because of the side boob!

Well 5 weeks post surgery and things continue to heal. I can sleep on my side now without pain - I really don't have any "pain" period. I'm just very careful not to lift any heavy object and to be careful putting my arms above my head etc. My scars are still a little ruddy as you run your fingers over them but they are healing. I bought BIO-OIL and have begun using that which I really like. The surgery has definitely created some nice cleavage and the breasts now sit on the "front" of my chest vs all that side boob and big gap in the middle. My only concern is the lax nipple skin area. It was not this way prior to the surgery and it sort of "hangs" a little bit on the right breast. I"m not sure what would have happened to cause that. I'm guessing they have some type of issue during surgery because of the incision being so far to my "side" of the breast and the way they sutured it maybe affected it. It's not bothering me enough to get it "fixed" anytime soon but does make things less symmetrical. Check out the 5 week post op photos.
