I'm currently on Neocutis brand Bio cream which has some patented products related to stem cell and the reviews seem great. This was recommended by my PS and she has lead me wrong BUT I wanted to know what everyone else is using so I can perhaps see what works best for me. Thank you in advance for suggestions

18 days post surgury-stitches out
gisellafJuly 1, 2015
My doctor used disolvable sutures but
I still had some extra stitches sticking out that needed to be removed today. It was painless and super quick. I really just had a little knot like suture under my breast in the center...she wants me to continue the nepsporin for 2 more days and then start the Biocream which she says helps me heal faster and diminishes scars. So far so GREAT! Every day I feel better. I'm back at work and even though I still get stings, zings, and other shooting pains on either breast, it's just nerve regeneration. Knowing that makes the pain more bearable. I'm still dealing with nipple sensitivity so if you know a way to help ease that please let me know.
I am starting to shop around for clothes but I'm noticing that psychologically I'm still not used to my new body. I find my self still looking for clothes I would wear to make me look smaller and all in size L which don't fit me. It's work in progress!

I've heard using nursing pads can help with the nipple sensitivity. I'm glad you are doing so well!

Tape is off. Reality is setting in. I'm now able to see the scars and I'm in the process of making sure I heal correctly, so nothing opens up or gets infected. I'm still wearing post surgery bras and camisole tops( can't believe my girls fit into one of these!). The scars at first are a bit scary. I'm getting used to the fact that they aren't as bad as I thought they'd be. I know this is a process and I also know my breasts will take on a more natural shape with time. I have to rub nepsporin on the scars twice a day and since its summer I have to be careful not to overdo it since I can develop a yeast infection from too much antibiotic ointment. Due to humidity..makes sense to me. So I'm just taking it easy and not going out in the sun for too long. The scars itself aren't too bad considering I had over 950 grams removed. My left breast still looks swollen and the areas where my scars are still hurt sometimes. Like a stinging sensation. Always worried I'm going to bust open! LOL. I'll continue to post as I move along. I'm finding this community very helpful and hope to be of help to others...
