How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Can't believe it's almost been 2 weeks
So I guess I could say this is my 2 week review.
So far so good! My right side has given me a little more pain then my left but I think this is the side that has dropped and fluffed a little faster than the other.
I had my one week post op and Doctor said the results looked great. The scars were a little dry due to the allergic reaction I had to the medical tape and so moisturize those a lot constantly. I have been using coconut oil but may start using frankensise as well.
I tried to be a good mom yesterday and took my three kids sledding.
Wasn't planning on actually sledding but my 2 year old really wanted to go down the big slide so I took him down. All went wel until I tried to get up and pulled my already sore pec muscle.
Called the doc about the pain and he told me i most likely just strained the already banged up muscle and to really be careful. Okay okay okay.... I'll listen better. It's hard to be a mom and patient. Anyways here is an updated pic.

Massive Itchiness!
Thursday (2 days ago) I started to get really itchy at the site of the pain catheter. I looked at the pain ball and noticed that it was pretty much empty. I called the office and asked for my removal to be that day since it was
Bothering my so badly. The nurses who removed it were so surprised to see how raw and red my skin was from the irritation. They told me to keep and eye on it and if it got worse to call back.
Later that day, I was still itching like a crazy woman and noticed on the left side that a huge blister had formed.
I called the doctor and they put me on a high dose steroid medication to help with the reaction. The combination of the steroid, muscle relaxer, and pain pill helped keep my mind off the itching until mid afternoon when i was beginning to question the surgery in the first place.
I placed another call to my doctor who said at this point there isn't much they can do besides wait for the heavy steroid to start working (1-2 days) but be did say I could take off the steri-strips. I was super nervous about taking them off so close to surgery but if they gave me a tiny bit of relief it would be worth it.
So off they came.
EEEk. Where those suckers red and raw. I felt so bad for my girls and the look on my husbands face
Was pity. You could tell he felt bad for me too! After the shower and another round of meds I feel much much better. I'm going to continue my cocktail of medicine until it all runs out and hopefully this nasty reaction will go away too! I'm uploading a couple of pictures. Can anyone tell me if my breasts will fluff out more
And come together more (drop) or are they in their rightful place?
Thanks

Boobs or just large pecs?
I'm a little frustrated right now. First of all they lionlike huge smushed boobs with no cleavage and not much projection.
I am not lifting anything heavy like my 2 year old but doing dishes and putting things high up.
I also heard some noises coming from the right implant. I read that it's normal but I just don't want to end up on Botched ;).

The entire office made me super confortabke and the nurse was the one who agreed that a lift would be in my best interest. No need to have another surgery that could be done at the same time as the implants.
