    Hi ladies,

    I’m 22 days post op today. I went back to the London clinic yesterday (3wpo) thinking that my bandages were coming off. But instead I have got a suspected infection, so I had new bandages put on and a 10 day course of antibiotics given to me.

    I’m a little bit down about it to be honest as I thought I was nearly through the worst of the healing period but it is what it is and I’m just happy it was caught early.

    My question is how long did everyone take to heal? I still feel like I have loads of healing to do. Even after 3 weeks. ☹️

    Thanks

    Hi Josie, who was your surgeon? Sounds painful I am booked for uplift and implants in 2 weeks. How has your recovery been other than the infection?

    I’m 9 days post op, my surgeon was Mr Mileto, I had uplift with 300cc hp unders. The first 4 days was very painful, my chest just felt supper tight, it even hurt to breath. I was also told to wear a breast band which put added pressure on. Day 5 was a turning point, since then I’ve been able to go for works and make myself a cuppa coffee, lol. I love my right boob but the left is sitting higher and the nipple lower, everyone keeps telling me it’s normal and to be patient but it’s so hard not to think they will be worse then before I started this journey. I also had the Pico dressing which becomes annoying having to carry the battery packs around, hopefully it will all be worth it in the end.
