6 weeks plastics post op

Aug 01, 2009

I am officially excused from the binder 24/7, but find myself needing it for swelling reasons.  I found some at Kohl's that I think might be just enough support without the intrusiveness of the post surgical unitard binder I have been using.  My incisions all look excellent.  The TT and thigh lift are coming along nicely.  I don't like the weird sensatins I get when my skin is toouched though or how my tummy is numb.  The belly button is a little odd too since I always had a bottomless button and now it is more normal.  As for the breasts...they still haven't dropped completely and I am getting very worried.  I have worn the binder and massaged then this whole time.  They look fine in clothes, but naked they are still too high making them look a little odd.  Dr. Tjelmeland said he doesn't think it will be a problem, but if they haven't settled in my September he will have to go in and move them himself.  He says it does not require general anesthesia and is a 2 day recovery, but AGGGGGHHH!!!! I am so tired of being cut on.  I am really disappointed in how the breasts are coming along.  I was hoping for zero complications.  I need to just be greatful that I am healing well and feeling better!  I am blessed to have come this far!
