Breast lift updates with pics
I had a lift only yesterday. I also had a scar revision but haven't posted after pics of that - as they are all covered in bandages. I'll update in a few days. I have some befores of my keloid brachio scars though for those who are interested in what a bad scar can look like.
My new boobies look GIANT to me. I know they are swollen...curious how much they will go down (and come closer together). Any advice?
Mine seem farther apart than normal as well, but I am assuning that once they soften up (they are hard andswollen right now) they will 'fall' more naturally and look closer together. I'm hoping that is what happens LOL
Congrats again though! I think they are looking great for one day out!

Mine are pretty hard and swollen too. I tried a bra on to judge cup size - and it was really obvious how far they are apart - I'd have to shove them together to make them fit! lol
Anyway, I know you are an athlete I hammered you with tons of quetions before my LBL and just wanted you to know I'm back doing triathlons, in fact have one Sunday. And will be doing my first century ride in two weeks and then another century at hotter n hell in Texas. Woohoo!!! All of this without that apron clapping for me!!

My belly incisions look almost exactly like yours - except I'm almost healed from necrotic open wound at intersection of horizontal and vertical incisions. My "circle" around BB is red like yours - I'm just 9 weeks post op.
I've been wearing silicone strips 24/7 (except for shower) on brachio incisions and they are looking OK. Arm pit incisions are still "tight" and hurt a little when I stretch. I had a 5# weight limit for the first month, then up to 8# for month two. Now I'm to "ease" my way back to a normal schedule with weight and exercise. I'm going really, really slow. My belly "aches" but I'm sure the open wound has something to do with that. You can click on my name or avitar pic to see progression of my necrotic open wound. I will do before and after pics when wound closes.
As soon as open wound on belly closes (hopefully withing the week - so close). I will wear silicone strips on belly incisions and open wound big scar.
How did you keep silicone strips on your belly?? I'm thinking of putting compression garment back on to hold them on during the day.
Thanks for your input. You are the first person that has incisions that look like mine from fleur de lis. Sorry about the scars on your arms.
