Hi Ladies
After all my moaning and groaning over the weekend about my surgeon, its turns out I have one of the best breast surgeons
I just couldnt understand why at 3pm were my boobs in less pain that they would be when I am pre menstrual, so it was time to find out…
Apparently, my surgeon uses a technique which I can not able to remember now, but he basically takes double the time on each patient that a normal surgeon would. This incurs less rough handling internally and is much slower and more gentle which is why despite me having no pain relief since 11am this morning, I am not that sore, although I was given all the pain relief tablets, anti biotic, etc but I dont feel sore enough to need pain relief
There are no drains applied due to the procedure (my favour part of all, hated them last time).
No support bra’s are needed, unless the patient wants to wear it at their own choice.
Disolvable stitches inside and out.
No tap or being bandaged up like a mummy.
Just waterproof tape over the scars which he will remove in 7 days himself.
Can shower as normal from tomorrow. (Just no baths)
And last but not least….he requires that arms ARE to be lifted up over head every hour starting immediately.
You would not believe how good I feel.
I thought earlier it was just because I had a BA before so most of the painful work was already done but my surgeon had to remove the capcular that formed around my old implants which would not be that simple and remove that scar tissue that formed after my last BA.
Before I left I got myself up, got dressed with a top over my head, went out to the girls at the reception and sat down and had a laugh with them for awhile while I was waiting on my BF to come pick me up.
The 2 other girls were up and about and finding it strange how relatively good they felt at that point. I said we all must be out of our minds on morphene and don’t realise it but its 8 hours on since I have had anything and apart from just the scars which are wounds at the end of the day, I dont have pain
My BF came to collect me with V pillows in the car and practically expecting to be carrying me out the door (something my parents had to do back in 2003), but I came out down the stairs which he stood waiting for me to come out through the elevator!! hee hee
Got home and went straight to the wardrope to try on the bikini’s and low cut tops and OMG I am so delighted.
I definately recommend the “extra” high projection, over the high.
One of the other girls got the high and when we were comparing b o o b i e s and there is abit of difference it would appear.
No wonder my surgeon would not go any bigger than 485 Xtra High round outers.
The implants he used are Silimed Polyurethane foam coated which I chose in my consultation as they hold their shape very well and dont give rippling and lower chances of CC and I have my lifetime guarantee’s here in my hand.
Although back in 2003 I paid extra for Mentor implants..1,000k extra because they had cohensive gel and wouldn’t spill out if they ruptured and they were the top one’s at the time, so in the next few years something else will be and I often wonder with a guarantee if they will only change the implants for the very same size?? As if I wouldn’t go bigger if I had stretched out more!!!!
Anyway ladies, I am just waiting on my BF to come back from getting a takeaway and will get him to take a few after photos and I have my before and afters to put up for you to see.
Just another thing my surgeon has me doing is wearing the unflattering stocking I wore in surgery for the next 3 days if possible. Something I didnt realise could help if you get bloating apparently.
I am off to the South of France tomorrow afternoon. My BF organised it for us and told me on the way to the hospital this morning. He didn’t think there would be any problem in recovering over there than here but I didn’t think I would be going anywhere based on my serious painful experience with my first BA.
Said it to my surgeon and he said the flying is fine as it is only an hour and a bit away and as there are no drains or bleeding with his technique I am not anymore at risk from DVT. Some go to eastern europe for BA’s and travel back the next day in a **** of alot of pain, whereas im fine…. but will see what tomorrow brings!
Well ladies, that is my novel story in full… thank you all for every single bit of advise, comments, friendships and just having someone to come speak with as none of my friends have boobjobs so only my BF and my mum know about this one, so it was great to have you all to ask questions and drive mad with my huge messages.
I promise I will stick to a paragraph from now on!!
Photo’s to follow later this evening xxxxx
