what are boobs like at 4 weeks post op? please help lol

heya ladies, having op next wednesday and exactly 4 weeeks after im going on holidy to egypt………just want to know if my boobs will look nice at 4 weeks post op? or will they still look fake and swolen?

also ive been told by my surgeon not to wear a bra for 6 weeks (having mr traynor) so will i be ok in a bikini for a week?

thanks girls

Well look for something with a little more support and no wired bikini??? And I was told to cover your scars so they heal better!!!

hi lucy, at 4 weeks they look so much diff hun, they should have dropped quite a bit and feel a little softer. so theyll look fab on ya hols!! xx

I would be worried about infection.. sorry to put a dampner on things. but I was told by my surgeon not to go near a bath for 8 weeks for infection and swimming pools breed germs.. I would stay clear of a swimming pool hun, you will be fine in a supportive bikini though but I would wear my op bra on the night..

Sorry to sound boring.. but would rather that then them get infected and be back at square one

Rcah x

i was also told not to go in the poo, or just dip your feet if you do. im gonna get a bikini for the day then i am still going to wear my sports bra at night i think. i too go to egypt, but on the 26th october, and will be 5 weeks and 5 days post op x

Hiya when i go back to see my surgeon at 6 weeks post op ive got to get the all clear that i can fly, have you checked that you can? x

luna- yea i was thinking that i shudnt waet an underwired bikini but i wont need to anyway coz ill have boobs x x

emily… eeekk cant wait lol, thats the main thing im bothered about that they look nice………. xx

hiya rach, i didnt know this at all about infections, especially the bath situation!, suppose it will be the kiddies pool for me lol, do yoou think id do any harm if i had a couple of quick dips or should i steer clear all together? nightmare im gunna be sweating llol x

hiya claire, im gunna try and take clothes where i dont need a bra because mr traynor doesnt want me wearing a bra for 6 weeks, have you been to egypt before? and do you need jabs etc? x

tasha……on my paper work it says allow 2 weeks after opp for short haul flights and 6 weeks post opp for long haul flights….. and i asked the nurse aswell beofre i booked the holiday. because it said this i didnt think anything of not being able to get in the pool etc coz i assumed when she said icould fly that i cu pretty much do all holiday stuff. i did mention going on holday aswell but she never mentioned that????? confusing x x

ps tasha……..the nurse told me just to wear some of them socks to prevent dvt and blood clots x

I personally woudl stay clear- I would sit at pool side with feet and legs in – But I would not risk it hunny, pools are one of the worst things for infections if not the worst! I would not want you to go back and have infection and something go wrong xx

yea ur propbs right hun, better to be safe than sorry x

i agree with rach, and egypt is aparently the worse for pool hygiene etc. Ive not been before, looking forward to it, but i believe that you either love it or hate it.

i just got back from egypt and it was absolutely amazing!! would definitely recomend it! xx
