Lump outside left breast was necrosis. Dr said it would work itself out.still there. Still hurting. Overt all pain is gone. So can run or jump without pain. The Dr said that the areola would either heal well on its own, or he would do a in office revision. I am still not pleased with the fact that my breast have lost A LOT of volume, the tops and cleavage are pretty much gone and the left nipple still faces outward. The main motivator for me to have this procedure was to get left breast more volumous to match the right :( I will try to post again after my visit, first week in June.

Considering the same procedure would you recommend it or just go with implants?

I have a follow up apt with my ps tomorrow. My main concerns are constant pain that needs are not helping, a huge lump between my breast and left arm pit, uneven healing/areola not fully attached to breast, left nipple faces outward and right breast still substantially larger than the left.

Up and moving well. Back to normal diet. Upper mobility very limited, as expected. Swelling is getting better, but I still have a long ways to go. I'm icing often to help with swelling. I'm posting my first set of pics bc today is the first day I could hey out of garments on my own.
