Can someone tell me how was the whole procedure/ surgery of changing implants. My surgery side has a size difference from my healthy one and the ps suggested changing size and shape to get a closer match to the healthy breast. I am worried about the surgery though. Pros and cons?
Second surgery was quite uneventful (no pain or complications). Blesssings
I feel like I wrote this question. I have been weighing whether I am expecting too much and should accept what I have or risk troubles to muscles , nerves, etc on a re-do.
Second surgery is like a drivethru fast food experience. Quick and easy.
I have had 4 reconstruction surgeries. I had a BMX so I anticipated I would have the same size on each side. The exchange surgery only lasted about 90 minutes . It looked great the week after. But then the trouble startd. The radiated side started to tighten and shrunk. So now I have to wear prothestics over my implants to even out the sides. it was a real bummer. I will probably need 2-3 more surgeries to get somewhat even. The exchange and the 2 revision surgeries were done out patient and I was sent home about an hour after waking up.
Understand that also. Had an additional day in hospital due to it. For next surgery, they told me to go over misadventure with anesthesiologist pre surgery. I had everything written down to go thru so not rushed or did not inform them. Asked what they are going to do to prevent it from reoccurring. The surgery and anesthesia went extremely well.
