I am 3 weeks out from a lbl, breast lift and brachioplasty with Dr. Capella.  The first week was pure hell, 2nd week a little better, and now  I'm feeling more human, just swelling and uncomfortable in the late afternoon. I am incredibly happy and excited about my results!

I wasn't sure if I wanted implants or not, and based on a 200 pound weight loss and what the doctor had to work with I wasn't expecting too much, but I have to admit, I absolutely love my breasts, I still can't believe they're mine, I can't help but look at them every time I walk past the mirror!

I am truly AMAZED at how my body looks now, so I can't even imagine how much happier I will be when all of the swelling goes down!

Was it/Has it been an easy recovery...no, but I feel so incredibly blessed to have been able to have had it done and by someone as talented as Dr. Capella!

Best wishes and good luck on your journey!
