Dr. Wooten and her staff have made my breast augmentation journey beyond incredible! It took me over two months to decide on a surgeon. Once I read about Dr. Wooten's credentials (one of Pittsburgh's top surgeons) and saw her work she became my number 1 option. I inquired about a consultation and got a response from Andrea within a couple of days. Andrea is Dr. Wooten's patient coordinator and answered every question and concern I had. I scheduled my consultation about 3 months out and my surgery 6 months after my consultation. She called me the day before to remind me of my appointment and again the morning of to make sure I didn't need directions to the office. Talk about service! Once I arrived at the office I walked into the waiting room which is superbly clean yet welcoming. I was able to complete the usual new patient paperwork online prior to the appointment along with being mailed the papers. Less than five minutes later I was called into the back! Andrea walked me and by best friend that I brought along into the back where she gave me a clean silky top to change into while I waited for the dr. Not too long after (maybe 10 min max) Dr. Wooten came in along with Andrea. He presence could light up a room. She introduced herself and gave me a quick rundown about herself and procedure. She also asked about me. She wanted to know why I wanted to have the surgery and what my expectations were. It was at that moment I knew she was EXACTLY what I wanted in a doctor! I believe that there should be a personal connection between doctor and patient, after all she is cutting me open. I was more than a dollar sign. I had been researching for over a year so I was pretty sure about what I wanted and the risks involved. I tried on sizers and after deciding on a size the doc went over everything again and bid me good day. I left and went into Andrea's office. We scheduled surgery, spoke about payment options, and brought in the nurse to talk about meds (I was somewhat of a special case). Fast forward a few months. I decided I wanted to change implant size. Dr. Wooten had me come into the office to be sure it was a good decision. Surgery day was amazing. Dr. Wooten came in to mark me up and assure me that everything was going to come out great. In the OR there was nice calming music playing next thing I know I was in recovery. She came in to check on me to make sure everything was fine. I saw her along with her nurse Dee during my post op visit. Sorry for the long rant but it's impossible to epress how awesome my experience was! If you are considering plastic surgery, I assure you that Beleza will far exceed your expectations!

Lots has happened!

Hey Ladies! Sorry for the long space between posts. I have been able to sleep comfortably on my stomach since about 2 weeks. I was cleared for cardio at 2 weeks post op. That day I did a mile run. It felt a little weird starting out but otherwise I felt great during. I did some squats, sprints, and sit ups after the run. I think adding the sprints was too much too soon. That night I had major muscle spasms. I took some of the muscle relaxers my PS prescribed. I took another week of before I ran again. I did the same workout afterwards and had no side effects. I started doing yoga that same week. I started out with slow flow which felt great. At 4 weeks I started heated power yoga along with a few Crossfit WODS that don't involve heavy weights. Pushups felt fine.

Today I'm about 5 weeks and tried jumping jacks. Felt like I'm not quite ready for jumping.

The only issue I've had so far during healing is boobie blues. The first c few weeks were really hard mentally. I've loved my boobs since day one! The problem was more like a depression. A big part of it was not being able to workout. My body is also very sensitive hormonally. I had serious mood swings until about 3 or 4 weeks post op. I would also fatigue really quickly. I had to keep reminding myself that we all heal differently. I was fortunate to be able to sleep when I was tired. I made sure to get out and do things so I didn't have time to dwell on being sad.

If I forgot anything please ask!

I'll post progression pics later ????

10 Days post-op

Sorry it's been a little longer in between posts than I wanted it to be. Anyhow let's get to it. Since the last update I am able to sleep comfortably on my side. That happened around day 9. They are softer and squishier now that my muscles are starting to relax. I had my post op visit at a week post-op. Everything went great! They wanted to remove my steristrips but I wanted to leave them on a little longer (just to make myself more comfortable). They took the old ones off and gave me fresh ones. Dr. Wooten said I can start cardio at 2 weeks and begin lifting again at 6 weeks. I'm dying over here without being able to work out. I still fatigue fairly easy so working out should be interesting. I'm still not regular with my bowel movements yet. Could be in part of my horrible eating habits since surgery. My nipples are still sensitive. I was able to put my nipple ring back in which was quite a task since it had begin closing up. Although I could have probably have put it back in after surgery, I wanted to wait until I was somewhat healed to lower my risk of infection. I was sure to wash my hands and clean the jewelry off with alcohol before I put it back in.
I'm still stretching and massaging with coco butter everyday.

Wow, you are recovering at a rapid pace! I couldn't sleep on my side for such a long time. I suppose in part, due to the long period between follow up visits. I was too afraid to try, lol. You look beautiful! I'm so happy for you that you could start sleeping on your side so quickly. That is my favorite way to sleep, too. I'm glad you are feeling so well. Please take it day by day returning to your normal workout schedule. Listen to your body. When I was released to no restrictions regarding exercise and weightlifting, I was surprised at how long it took me to get up to full speed. Push ups and tricep dips took the longest time. If I am honest, it still feels a little weird doing tricep dips. It doesn't hurt, but just feels a little weird. Please enjoy shopping for new bras and bathing suits. It's so much more fun with beautiful, full boobs, to fill them out with. :-)
Thanks hun! I'm cleared to start cardio on Thursday (2 weeks). They're still pretty firm so I don't think there will be that much bouncing. Are you comfortable doing pushups now? How long did it take you to get back to normal? I'm so excited to start shopping for bras but I'm gonna wait until they've dropped and fluffed until I start buying expensive stuff.
