Hi everyone ?
I’m 12 days post op at the minute.
I am 5ft 4 and weigh around 9stone.
My boobs haven’t dropped yet which I’m not to worried about. I have been told to wear the band for 4 weeks non stop. I had a nipple lift which I am a tad worried about. My nipple on one side looks like it is slightly pulled to one side. How both nipples should point forward one of mine is slightly pointing inwards. I can’t see this changing, which is worrying.
I also only have 1 week left off work and I can’t see myself being ok to go back. I’ve read some of these and people are straight back to work. I got a sick not for 3 weeks and I honestly don’t think I’m ready to go back. My pain is around a 4 out of 10 at the minute but I’m not able to lift anything up. X
Hi I’m hoping to have the same procedure as you in October of this year. Do you think it might be the swelling that is causing the nipple to look at funny angle? Would love to hear more about your recovery. Who was your surgeon?
Hi amy,
I didn’t go with mya in the end I booked in at transform. I wasn’t happy at the consultation with Mya.
My nipple is still facing more to one side but has improved since I last wrote on here. So yes possibly could be swelling.
My left side of my body is completely back to normal for lifting or moving around but my right side I still feel like I’m just a week into it. Which is hard work as I am right handed. I was due to go back to work tomorrow but I have got another 2 weeks off. So altogether I will have had 5 weeks off. My job involves a lot of lifting this is why I am unable to go back, but if I had an office job I would be perfectly fine for going back. It will be 3 weeks post op tomorrow. I am still feeling sick some days. I am comfortable sleeping at night which is good, but in the day I am still very tired. The pains are still there but it’s more like a dull ache now. I have read in here that some people are on nights out the week after !!! God I wish I would of been able to recover like that. My boobs are sooooo sensitive, my bra or top touching them or my nipple is an awful feeling at the moment, I’ve heard some people get silicone nipple pads to stop anything rubbing against them so I may invest in some of them!!
Im still a tad swelled around my sides so I am wearing a 34DD at the minute. I have a 30E that fits my cup size perfect but a tad to tight around my back so hopefully that should fit me soon when the swelling goes down.
Are you booked in with Mya? Xx
Hi how are u getting on? I’ve had mine done now. Really pleased so far I’m one week post op. X
Hi,
I’m 15 weeks post op now. They are loads better. I am back at the gym doing my normal things work is ok with lifting to. I have been on holiday so I made sure I had factor 50 on my nipple scars and made sure they was covered up, I was convinced the sun was going to get through my tops!!
I get all different types of little pains and tingly sensations that last for a few seconds my surgeon said this is normal and to expect this for a while. I have been rubbing cream or scar oils on my scars 5/6 times a week the odd night I forget but I seem to be on the ball with it. I thought I’d nip on here just to see if any one has had sharp pains in there scars mainly underneath because I have been getting them all day. Could just be the healing process. I think mine are still high yet and will drop more soon.
How are u getting on?
Any pains or anything u find works for u?
I find I need to sleep in a crop top or something to just keep them in place , not stuck to me like a sports bra but just so they are where they should be if that makes sense !! Xx
Hi Thea your results look absolutely amazing,, I’ve wanted mine done since I had my daughter 8 years ago I’ve been soo close a few times but I’m terrified off the recovery and keep thinking what happens if something goes wrong 🙁 with needing lift aswell,, it’s the implants going under the muscle aswell sounds like the recovery will be horrendous:( ,was wondering how long did u need off work all together? And was the recovery as bad as you thought? Xxx
Hi Thea
Your boobs look amazing by the way!!
Mi am due to have surgery in 13 days I’m having a BA and nipple lift – in regards to the nipple lift was it uncomfortable?? Im worried that post BA will be uncomfortable never mind added extra pain with the nipple lift x
Hey! Your boobs look great! Do you have any before photos? I’m due for a nipple lift and possible 400cc implant in 4 weeks and I’m trying to find people with similar before pics! Thanks!
