sorry guys, no pics yet. I'm not allowed to take the badages off for five days. Which seems a bit weird. Anyway. I went in for my SECOND revision(third surgery), this morning at ten am. I went to a random doctor initially, which was a big mistake. Moobville times ten, jacked up areola, lots of fat leftover and scar tissue. Luckily I regained some brain power and chose the amazing Dr.Medalie to fix the issues. He did the purse-string procedure. which is basically an incision around the entire areola, removing skin, heavy lipo to clean up the large amount of scar tissue and fat underneath, and then pulling it tight and sewing it back to the also revised areolas. I was only under local anesthetic today, so I didn't have any pain, but I was wide awake the whole time. Exciting. It didnt freak me out in the least, in fact I was happy to hear him tell me what he was doing to my chest bit by bit. Dr. Medalie has a killer sense of humor, very experienced and a complete perfectionist. Consider this an impeccable review.
Also. cheaper than most surgeons. Especially because I decided against general anesthesia. That took off several grand.
Pics coming soon-
oh, did i mention i have no pain whatsoever?!
