UPDATE: 1 year post op. Breast lift, no implants, Galaflex mesh

Hard to believe it has already been one year. This procedure quickly became a distant memory. I haven't updated in 8 months but thought I should show the community how things look after one year. I'm still happy with my results. There was a time that I was considering a fat transfer to the upper pole for fullness. I really don't feel it's necessary. I loved the upper pole fullness right out of surgery and I always knew things would settle. The only way to maintain that upper fullness is with implants. I didn't want those at my age and have to worry about another surgery for them when I'm in my 60's. I have the upper fullness when I wear a bra and since I almost always wear one it's not an issue for me.

I think the Galaflex did its job. I really haven't had any sagging in my breast. I still don't have a crease. Wonder if I'll ever get one? It works for me cause I hate the under boob sweat anyway.

The updated photos were taken today at the end of the day. This is the worse my scars look. They get more noticeable after my workout and running around all day. They are barely noticeable in the morning and I'm hopeful they will continue to blend in as the scars mature more.

4 months post op. Feeling great! Scars continue to fade and soften. Finally able to comfortably wear an underwire bra. Shape has continued to change and improve. I've lost a little bit of upper fullness as things have settled. I was kind of expecting that. Still not sure if I'm going to want fat grafting there or not. The scaffold seems to be doing its job. The distance from collarbone to nipple and distance from nipple to cease is the exact same as right after surgery...no sagging:).

Tomorrow marks 10 weeks since breast lift. Not much in the way of changes but I thought it was time for an update. Healing has gone well. Didn't spit any stitches or have any wound healing issues or incisions opening up. My scars are healing nicely. The scars at the fold are in the "angry" stage. They are more red and raised than the other scars. I've been using silicone gel on them. My breasts have softened and settled a bit. They feel and look natural. I think I've lost some upper fullness but still looks good to me. So far not sure if I'm going to want a fat transfer to the upper pole or not. Even though things have softened and settled the distance from my collarbone to nipple and distance from nipple to crease has remained the same since surgery. The measurements on both breasts are exactly the same too:) I may need a minor revision in the future. It seems I have some extra tissue/skin on the left breast by the fold. That was the breast that was reduced a bit so maybe it will go away as things settle? I'm pleased with the surgery and glad I had it done. Totally worth it!
