Hello! I'm about 4 months out from having surgery...
What can I do NOW to help ease the pain of saggy skin/breasts?
(and any other advice is welcme too!)
I'm 5'2, 252lbs currently. 28 years old (29 by the time surgery is done) and I have a 3 year old. I do have stretch marks from having a kiddo, but nothing outrageous. Overall genetically, stretch marks are minimal in my family. I also apply cocobutter lotion everyday like a crazy woman!
I'm hoping those two things are in my favor, altho I know that loose skin is most likely going to happen. I wear a 38G bra, I'm hoping that my boobs get smaller just not longer. LMAO! I am preparing for eventually needing a boob job and tummy tuck but I'd prefer to avoid them if possible! So any advice is appreciate
