So, things are going well. I've taken to wearing underwire bras again. Haven't found a good size yet. The bra in this picture is a 32ddd with an expander so the wire doesn't hurt. If I try to wear a 36d the bra is too lose, but the cup fits. A 34d is too small in the cup and a 34dd is too big in the cup. No doubt I just need to find the right brand.

Scars are fading as expected. The one on the underside of my right breast feels thicker. I am hoping this changes over time. I have a follow up appointment with Dr Obaid next month and should be posting another update after that.

I had my annual mammogram and it came out fine. Didn't feel any more uncomfortable than I had remembered. My regular Ob/Gyn appointment got moved as my doctor had to do an emergency procedure so I don't get to tell you what she thinks yet. I'll try and remember to include that in my update next month.

6 week photos and update

NewSmallerMe
Here are my six week photos. My husband took them last Friday. My appointment was not until Monday, so I had planned to do the update then. However, I got a little lazy.

So, the pink outfit is what I wear while letting the scar cream dry a little. Otherwise it tends to stick to my clothes. It is called a duster or housecoat and my grandma used to wear them all the time. I wish I had bought one to wear the day of the procedure.

I think my scars are healing up nicely. The big one on my right Breast had finally stopped oozing. The morning of my appointment, a new opening appeared right at the nipple and was oozing. Dr. Obaid removed another suture from that spot and it sealed up the next day. I did not get a picture of that.

Dr Obaid wants me to follow up in 4 months. If my right breast scar has not gotten smaller he says I may need a revision.

You did a super job visually documenting your experience. Your results look fantastic, front and back. Thank you for sharing this.

Thanks, I know I wished I could see more healing pictures before deciding. I hope this helps others out. Hopefully, I will post another set of pictures when the scars fade and flatten so that people can have an idea of how long that takes.

Also, I could not find any pictures of what the scar looks like after dehiscence. So, I'm really hoping I remember to post a picture of how that is doing later on. Perhaps when Dr. Obaid decides if I need a revision.

How are things going?

Things are going well. I have some 6 week photos that I need to post with an update. I've just been lazy. The right breast opening finally closed up, and then the morning of my six week follow another spot opened up right below the nipple where it meets the line going down. Dr. Obaid took another suture out of that spot and it seems to have closed back up. He wants to see me in 4 months. If the right side scar doesn't get smaller, he said I might need a revision.
