More removed than I thought...

A quick update that the removal was over 2.5 lbs, in recovery they told me about 1.2 and that’s what I posted here. Apparently, I didn’t realize it was per breast at the time because of all the drugs! I had a spitting stitch at the bottom of my left breast which I cut and emailed the doctor about, it’s all healed up now but surprised me this far out from surgery. Apparently, it is super common until the stitches dissolve. Still in a 32ddd (us) size. Wear Lovely had some gorgeous and comfy busty bralets (size 1) I’ve been wearing in the no underwire healing phase. November is my 6 min follow up , so I’ll post an update then. I do plan to discuss my final size being bigger than I wanted.

2 month post op

Definitely on the other side of healing! Able to run again, in a bra that cost $25 at target. My current bra size is 32ddd, but the 34dd sports bra style at target has a tight enough band to fit and support well. Bigger than I hoped but swelling is still going down. Incisions are fully closed and the doctor mentioned a couple spots that might need touch up. I started scar treatment after my appointment. Doctor recommended Embrace scar therapy at $450. I checked their website and they had buy one get one 50% off, so just ordered directly. It required watching a video and my husbands help to get them on, and I’ll do this for 60 days. Need to get scar away silicon sheets for the drain hole scars. Worth every single penny paid!

Full Reveal 3 week update

Second follow up today and all is healing well. The tape around my aureolas was removed and a few surface stitches removed. Apparently they dissolve, but can take 6 months and some were ready to be removed. The ones removed seemed to have healing areas that were more irritated, so it looks a little red in the pictures. I am cleared for lifting my little chunky monkey baby!! Still wear the bra with guaze to keep my incision sites dry (it’s hot in Texas this time of year and boob sweat doesn’t go away with this procedure unfortunately!). I am noticing the swelling reduce some, the original post op bra size is a little loose especially around my rib cage, but the next size down is a bit tight for the boobage. Hoping this continues to go fairly smoothly!
