Thank you! Sometimes I think so too! It definitely changes. I'm thinking it's a tethered scar/scar tissue adherence so I'm hoping it'll be as simple as massaging it free or having the doctor release it. It looks not so nice but it also kinda pulls when I raise my arm. It affects my range of motion a bit - like a slight bit. It did before my explant too - it's just my explant filled out the crease (a bit) more.

Only 8 days post op so it's early days yet! I think we had our op on the same day..

Thank you so much! I feel so good! I will definitely keep sharing - I stalked these boards and all those who explanted before me for a long time before finally making my explant appointment. Gotta give back ;)

HAHAHA!! Too funny!

And yummers on that pumpkin soup! I have taken collagen, just for general connective tissue support. Now interested to research about helping healing along.

Yay! I know it'll be so worth it! When is your date?

Right after I win the lotto.

I had local anesthetic and no capsule removal - so no drains. I felt great after surgery. I drove myself home and went out to sushi. I can't imagine you'd need care that night but I would suggest having someone drive you home and eat in that night. The next day I was exhausted. I didn't need any hemp with anything but I was glad I had the weekend to rest. I went to work Monday. I don't go back to see him till next week for stitches. If I had drains I know there would be more post op visits.

Thank you so much! I'm feeling good!!

So, so nice! I can't believe I waited so long!

I think it's the lighting on the crease, lol! But I am happy with the healing progress for sure. The crease feels like a pulling inside so I'm guessing it's some sort of scar adhesion or something - in my medical opinion! HAHA!

Thank you! I feel great for 5 days! Actually there's no discomfort at all except for the weird pulling feeling where the crease is - especially when I raise my arm.

I know I felt that two, it takes awhile, after I healed awhile when I felt my incisions were healed enough I would massage. I think tissue has either been stitch to put the muscles back, I'm not sure but whatever it is it feels like scar tissue trying to form, the massaging has helped mine not feel so tight.

Ask your PS about ultrasound therapy for scarring. This is being done now for CC. I just had a ultrasound breast screening and I could swear that the breast they went over twice feels a bit less tight. I know that Dr. Barnett (Sarasota), an explantation specialist, does it in her practice. I'm sure it is indicated for all types of surgical healing. (Something for down the road if scarring is an issue.)

Thanks for the info. I'll give my PS a call. I think the biggest issue is the connection with the muscle dent. The scarring will need to be addressed since I think it might become painful. I had done so much damage to my breasts with 11 surgeries that I am just relieved they are out. It's a nice feeling to be free! Thanks for sharing. God Bless.

Thanks for the info. I have been massaging. I hope it works. It's tough when you are wearing a heart monitor 24/7 because you can't get any creams near the electrodes. If you do , the electrodes will not stick. It's a real drag. I pray you're right. Thanks for sharing. God Bless.
