    Ladies

    wonder if you can help, had the bandages removed on tuesday and have quite a lot of bruising to the right boob so it is very swollen still

    does anyone know how long until the swelling will go, cos at the moment this one is slightly bigger than the left! and im panicking slightly

    hun, it’ll take a good couple of weeks for the swelling to go down….your boobs have been pushed and pulled about that much, getting the implants squeezed in thru such a tiny incision, its not just all the healing on the outside….its whats going on in the INSIDE as well. i had an uplift and re-aug on mon, and mine are still like flippin balloons lol!! i’ve been getting my sister to take pics every other day, and that way i can see the swelling going down gradually….just take things easy, and dnt try to do too much too soon xxx

    hi Kyliex, i had quite bad bruising under my right boob which lasted a good 2/3 weeks, and also at 4 weeks post op my right boob was noticeably bigger than my left, but they evened up a couple of weeks later. I think it was because my left boob dropped slightly before my right one. I’m sure you have nothing to worry about, as you are only 13 days post op. Your boobs will change so much in the next few weeks / months, and can soften and drop at different times. I am now 8 months post op and think mine have now settled down. x

    No problem hun, when is your check up with your surgeon? I had mine at 7 weeks and was happy to be told by Mr Adamo that everything was as it should be!
    Happy healing, and try not to worry to much at the moment and enjoy your new boobies :-) xx
