Peeling?

Hi girls,
So I’m nearly 3 weeks post op and I’ve noticed the skin on my boobs is going dry and I’m peeling, and in between my boobs too.
Anyone else had this? Xx

Yes you just need to get some moisturiser on them avoiding the incisions I used vitamin E oil from Holland and Barrett but also used a good quality moisturiser on them too it’s judt cuz they’re constantly covered that’s all xxx

Ok thank you ???? I have put on some moisturiser and will continue to do so each day. How long ago was your op? Xx

Sorry for the ??? That was a smiley face x

Yes I had this too. Totally normal I used to enjoy picking it off… I’m a minger hahaha. Just keep moisturising and exfoliating babe xx

@abo will do … and if it makes you feel better I picked it all off too haha! What post op bras did you wear? I’m using Macom and I’ve got them in a band size 34 (usually a 32 but could be borderline sometimes), and I’ve just brought another one on a 32, and my left boob has been tingling pretty much non stop since having it on. I do feel more supported in the 32, but worried incase I’m squishing them together too much?! Xxx

Hi @sophie so glad I have seen your post. I was starting to think it was just mine this was happening to because I hadn’t seen anyone else mention it before xx

This is happening to me and I’m 3WPO. I’m also noticing some stretch marks under the peeling so am using lots of bio oil and moisturiser. Must have something to do with stretching of the skin etc xx

@steph @sian I hadn’t seen it mentioned before either so I was worried it was just happening to me haha! I used moisturiser on the dry bits and then bi oil everywhere else (apart frozen the incisions). Gonna do this morning and evening from now I think. How are you both recovering?? Xxx

Ahh i thought i was just gross. My skin also rolls off when i rub it in the shower. Its been doing it for about 8days now and im 4 weeks po x

I got a small in the Macom so a size 32 (usually a 30 back) it kept them well supported xxx

Totally normal Hun I use to slightly exfoliate my boobs to get rid of if with out going near my scars then I use to put loads of coconut oil on I know they tell u not to fill 6 weeks but mine use to drive me crazy as it was so Ichy where the skin was peeling xxx

Happening to me too! It’s so gross but I’m using bio oil and coconut oil!xx

@sophiex26x I’m 9 months post op now xx

So glad I started this post now 🙂
As it looks like it happens to a lot of us girls and I haven’t ever seen it mentioned on here before.
It’s a lot better today so obviously just needed some TLC! When does drop&fluff happen with overs? So impatient haha xx
