    15 Days post op

    Had my second post op today to look at my nipple lift. This time I had a different nurse and I’m a little upset as to how it went.
    When she was taking my steri strips off my areolas she wasn’t wearing gloves and picked at the corners with her finger nails and pulled them off as though I was having a wax! I saw some of the dried blood/scabs pull off and my incisions started bleeding, she also took off my inframammary fold steri strips. I hadn’t been in any pain until now my incisions have started to sting.
    The nurse put gloves on after that but I am sure that removing my steri strips for the first time wasn’t the correct thing to do without gloves especially when she said she would have to put dressings on another week including over my inframammary fold which the nurse who I saw before told me I didn’t need them and I already hadn’t wore them for a week.
    So now I have dressings on that are bigger than what I had on after surgery and the holes that the nurse cut in the dressings for my nipples is so big that it goes around the outside of my areola incisions and blood has been able to get through onto my bra surely that defeats the point of having dressings on?
    I’m also starting to feel as the swelling looks like it has gone I wish that Mario had given me the implant size I had asked for or at least a little bigger, I still think they look a little too small for my frame 🙁
    Hopefully things will be better next week.
