Breast reconstruction begins on Wednesday

Hi Chris, Sorry not been online for a little while.  Gee I won't let that happen again, so many things happen in a matter of a few weeks.  Great to hear you recover from your surgery.

I had a double masectomy and tissue expanders inserted.  When then they fill the tissue expanders the first time, I had a kink that was brusing my skin and causing pain.  So they decided that as long as I could take the pain they would keep filling the saline until the kink was out.  Well they did a 150ml on each side in one hit.  When I got up to walk I nearly toppled over not being use to carry the extra weights after being nearly flat chested for a while.  I now have the silicone implants. Which is slightly smaller than what i had filled because I told the doctor I did not want to look like a teenager with boobs right on my chest for my age.  So he stretched the skin more so when the silicones went in, they already droped a little.

Yes to all you girls we will have fairly perky boobs but my plastic surgeon said to me it is a misconception if you think that you boobs won't drop a little, So it is best to wear a bra at times.  He advised that its not only breast tissue that sag but your skin can stretch and lose elasticity as you age therefore your implants/boobs can sag. 

Plus one of the mums at my school had a boob job she then lost heaps of weight and now her boobs have sag quite a bit. 

So if you want to keep perky boobs try to not let the skin stretch.   So I am wearing my sexy bras to keep them looking cute. Ha Ha at least it will cover the scar until i get my new fakes nipples, which apparantly I might get them before Xmas.

Take care
