For women who have either had or are considering a breast reduction/lift, could you tell me what the procedure

Question

consists of, how long recovery time is and if you are glad you had the surgery. My large sagging boobs are agonizing, but I am also terrified of surgery-so feedback would be appreciated. Thanks

Answer 1

It was really cool. Out of all the surgeries I had, not much pain at all. The doctor did the "key-hole" technique where they cut down and around the nipple, remove the excess tissue, then lift everything up and close. It was an almost 6 hr surgery and he removed 9 lbs. I woke up with an IV, a PCA (pain control pump) and a catheter. I had 2 drains, which he took out before I was discharged. It sounds very technical, but it was not bad. I had to stay wrapped with the ace wrap for over 6 weeks. I went back to work on the 3rd week. I felt great. And, after suffering with large, saggy breasts my whole life ( the final size was a 54i before surgery) i was very pleased to be a perky 48B. If you have any questions, feel free to email me. Best of luck to you.

I even have very great breast DD and have interior the previous seen a breast alleviation. even if on no account did get one and that i'm happy i did no longer. do a sprint diagnosis first. You run the prospect of loosing sensation around your nipple section. that may no longer a raffle i could choose for to take. it extremely is extremely helpful to to invest in some o.k. maid bras, somewhat extra costly even if extremely worth it. Nursing won't make your breast dishevelled in case you positioned money into stable, nicely maid, even if costly bras, and positioned on them day and night. of direction turning into clean ones. I nursed 4 infants, my breast are attractive.
