6 week (almost) postop visit yesterday...Round 2 scheduled!
Well, all is good. He (my surgeon and man crush
) is happy. He did notice the laxity that has shown up above my belly button as well as a little dog ear on my hip. But we will address those later with a small revision.
Still does not want anything on the incisions in terms of creams, lotions or potions. They look pretty good really. He said maybe later I can start Mederma or silicone. So far...my scar therapy consists of a daily shower.
Most importantly, Breast lift (no implant) and brachio have been scheduled for December 14!
It (mastopexy) may be a whopper of an incision as he says my breast tissue is very wide.
It's true...they literally start under my arm. I grab all that tissue and pull it into the cups of my bra.
But I trust him implicitly.
And, if my brachio incision can be as thin and pink as my Fleur de Lis is right now...I will be happy!
So onward...the journey continues!
