Breast reduction and breast lift a week ago



Recommended Posts

So so happy with my decision to have a breast reduction (in one breast) and breast lift in both! Thought I would have to have implants to correct my poor sagging drooping breasts, but I found out that I could go this other route instead.

I am one week post op and my breasts (although still taped a bit and a little bruised) are beautiful!

I finally have 25 year old breasts (even though I'm 59!). If you're interested in more information, I wrote a new post on my blog www.queenofcrop.com

No pain for the most part.....and I am so happy not to have my old breasts......

Thanks for sharing this - checked out the new post on your blog and wow!

I had large breasts even when I wasn't overweight. I had said that when I lost weight I would get a reduction and lift, even seen a surgeon. But post sleeve, I couldn't contemplate more surgery and thought I would just have to live with saggy boobs.

However, even three weeks out from the sleeve, I can see already that that's not going to be an option. But I didn't know anyone who'd done this post sleeve. Then up you pop!

So thank you, thank you, thank you for the inspiration. You look great and sound so happy with life. That'll do for me :-))))

hi omg!! i love the "new breasts" i know they are a replica but that is just the look i want! i am new to my journey (6 weeks) but I was a lightweight!! my bmi was 34. I have lost 26lbs and already my breasts are looking so sad and droopy so I know once I get to goal they will need uplifting!!!

did you have surgery in amsterdam and was it expensive? I am british but live in the US and the prices here vary from state to state. so Im very interested! I have subscribed to your blog so will love hearing how things are going!

congratulations!!!

@ Ainsworth: Thanks for the compliments....the cost was so reasonable to me....it was 4800 Euro which is about $6200 USD. That included one night in a private hospital with excellent care, consultations and follow up. So worth it. Good luck on your journey and congratulations on your weight loss so far!

I'm scheduled for a breastlift next month along with a LBL, can you tell me your size before/after? I'm wondering if I have enough to work with.

Queen of Crop, thank you so much for sharing! Congrats on your successful surgery! I just scheduled my breast lift/reduction surgery for July 1st and am super excited. I'm currently wearing a size 40DD bra, and the girls hang down nearly to my navel, and it's just a sad, ugly sight. I hope my surgeon does as good a job as yours! He is highly rated and his before & after pics were really encouraging, and he really put me as ease during the consult, so I'm hoping for a great result. :)

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
