Default home from hospital

Hi everyone,
not long got in from hospital.Had an overnight stay, as apart from having a
new nipple, dog ears taken away and lipo I also had a small implant put in
my 'old' saggy breast.I'm a little swollen everywhere so its had to judge
how its all turned out,however inplant looks suttle and not 'at attention'
as it were.
Will keep you all posted.
Good to be home and over the anesthetic !
Kathleen

Glad to hear all that - but I'm a bit worried that you were dog-eared :-)

Off to Aberdeen in the morning

When I has my surgery I had a perfect incision line except the two ends
where sticking up looking like dog ears, that is where they harvested the
tissue for my nipple, it was pretty impressive. Alex

Hello Alex,
well, to my knowledge,the surgoen did a 'origami' type incision on my
reconstructed breast to create the nipple, mmm !
I am having no discomfort on that side, however the implant side is a tad
sore.
Bye the way, hello to you Pami, my e mail has changed, will post the new one
to ya !

It is good to hear from someone that has been thru the surgery you have.
I am going to have my breast removed, a tummy tuck and my breast rebuilt
at the same time and some work on my other one to make it smaller and
give it some lift. They will use the skin from my abdomen for my new
breast and use the muscle and tissue in the breast. They said I will
have a much better figure when they are done. I have not found out when
the surgery is yet. The surgeon and the plastic surgeon have to get
their time set up and then call me. I am a double D so I want them
smaller. I didn't know you could have a nipple put on. They just told
me I would not have one.

I hope everything goes well for you.

The same operation they did to me ten years ago. I was also very large
breasted and was reduced to a b-c cup. I would ask about the nipple since it
is a finishing touch.
