I chose Dr. Pettigrew in Savannah to do my procedure. I have a few friends that used him as well, and they had beautiful results. I have wanted this done for long time. Between birth control, weight fluctuation and 2 pregnancies and 2 breast fed children, they are now saggy and delated. I had surgery yesterday. The staff was amazing. Made me very comfortable. They walked me back to the operating room, put me on the table, and I was out in about 2 minutes. I was a three hour surgery. When I woke up I was feeling really good. Got nauseated for a minute on the way home, and other thank that I could hardly hold my eyes up. He did not put drains in, and I have a little bit of blood on my beautiful bra that they game it! Today is day 2 and I feel pretty good. Been staying on top of my pain pills and valium. It is more soar than pain. Dr. Pettigrew is very serious about walking every 2 hours for the firs day. I did that all night last night, and I think it really helped with stiffness as well. He told me to take deep breaths while I was doing my walking and deep breaths today as well. I am going to try and upload before pictures and then one of today. I do not get the dressing changed until my post op appointment on Monday. No showering, no deoderant, or anything until I am cleared! Just for reference, I was a 32 DDD before surgery. I told him that I wanted to make them higher and tighter but did not want to go any bigger. Will update on current size when swelling went down.

2 weeks post op

I am a little over two weeks post op. The surgery went really well. I came out of anesthesia fine. I was off work for a week and went back after 10 days after surgery. I am absolutely in love with my boobs. Before my surgery I didn't even like for my husband to see my boobs. He loved them before but loves them even more now. The healing has been interesting. I am naturally a little anxious and worry a lot, so every little pain and tinge makes me worry something is wrong. I have started scarguard and it is amazing. Seems to be working already and I've only been on it for a week. I feel like the post op bra my doctor gave me doesn't give much support. I don't know if my breast dropped really fast, or if they will drop some more, but I love them just like this and hope they don't change much more. I get some burning sensations, and a pulling sensation around the scar underneath my breast but I think this is all normal for where I am in the healing process. I can't wait to get into a normal bra and regular sports bra. Still have to sleep on my back.

How was the healing process? Do you retain the same amount of sensitivity? Are they settling in?
