Thigh Lift/Thighplasty and Arm Lift/Brachioplasty

I had the drain removed on my left breast yesterday but returned today because of two spots that seemed see through. My PS informed me that the bacteria from the infection dissolves tissue and we needed to act quickly before we ended up with another implant exposure. Today he cut a section from my rib/stomach and flipped it up to cover the thinned area. I’m so tired of the healing.... feeling depressed and discouraged, even though I know it will eventually heal. I am stressing and having major anxiety with the fear of ending up having to remove the implant and having to heal it for months with only one implant. Hoping for the best at this point....

This is progression of when my PS sutured closed the exposed implant on my left breast and closed the superficial opening on right breast. I ended up with an infection in my left breast three weeks after exposure was sutured.

May 9th (4weeks post op) I ended up with an exposed implant on my left breast and had a continuing medium size superficial opening on my right breast, which needed to be sutured closed. The exposed opening was fairly small at about 1/3”. It’s been 3.5 weeks since then and I still have the sutures in, which are incredibly annoying, uncomfortable and obnoxious, but the tissue has been healing nicely, just slowly. Everything was on the up and up, looking great..... but then while visiting Texas, I woke up on Memorial Day for our early morning flight to notice the whole lower section of my left breast to be red, hot, and swollen. I know what that means..... infection. Right when I thought everything was going good too.
No pain, just redness, hot and swollen and noticeably harder than my right side. Now my left breast is the side that was found to have a ruptured mentor silicone implant, removed, cleaned and replaced with a new implant on April 9th. Then small opening with implant exposure on May 9..... so the fact I ended up with an infection is somewhat expected.
I contacted my surgeon and he called me in an antibiotic prescription had me come into the office the next morning, by then of course now pain is accompanying the other symptoms.... plus now the left breast is noticeably larger than the right. When I go to see him, the redness has subsided after 4 doses of oral antibiotic, but the pain is getting more annoying, even affecting my left arm. He has me take an extra dose of my antibiotic and says to check in in four hours. When I checked in and told him no changes, except the redness had returned, he scheduled me to come in next morning to have a drain put in. When he inserts the drain, we’re both happy to see a clear liquid, no gross yellow/green pus, and he informs me that this is the best bet to try and save the implant and hopefully not have to go in and replace it and clean out the whole pocket.
I’ve had the drain for three days now, and I’m over it.... but I know it’s necessary. Hopefully it can be removed on Monday, along with the remaining sutures.
I’m just tired of the issues.... I know it will heal, but it’s getting old.
Will update soon!
