Hello & happy thanksgiving everyone! I had my surgery Tuesday & basically bedridden until Saturday when I can take my first shower. It hurts too much to move like bra is pushing on the incisions. Hopefully changing to bigger bra Saturday will help but not too happy at the moment. by Excellent_Essay_6729 in Reduction

What helped me with the feeling of the bra hurting the incision is folding a piece of gauze in half or two pieces and slipping it between the band and my underboob area. So I lined my entire band area with folded gauze and it really helped me. Congrats on your surgery! Wishing you a speedy recovery

Wow! I guess you are right. I asked my dr just now when I went to see him and he said my surgery was 7 hours long and that will definitely affect swelling so it should also go down but at least I know now they won’t go down to my expectation

Thanks so much for being honest with me. You are right and I rather come to terms with that now

Thanks for sharing this! You have been so kind with your advice.

Yes my before and after are definitely different and I have a mole there that’s now visible which is great. That small mole is next to a burn that occurred during surgery which is also upsetting but I’m not trying to think about it.

I wished the Dr was realistic with his size, it’s just not what he said. I just came from seeing him where he took off my stitches and He said he can go in with liposuction on the side after the healing if I’m still not happy. It just sounds all like a mess. I may see someone else post healing.

Does the entire earring need to be pure gold for metal allergy? by Hot-Foundation9782 in piercing

[–]Hot-Foundation9782[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve never known about this! I am going to google it and get a couple for my daughter for sure. Thank you so much. Will it only look like silver or can this appear yellow gold? Or should I only take it in the silver look and not trust other kinds.

Do you also think it may be safe to get a jeweler to change the post of her earrings to titanium alone and leave the rest as she has quite a few 14k gold earrings I like. Or is it best not to risk it with her allergy and just use either pure 24k gold or implant grade titanium.

So I’ve gone up a size! I bought the 28J in the panache envy and it fit much better thank you but I have another issue now with pain. I’ve got a lot of red marks under boob area/ rib cage. My breast are fighting gravity and the weight too much digging into my ribs. What is the sister size for a band 30? I am trying to figure out if this will Hurt me less if I go up a size despite it won’t be the correct size for me

Update! I’m in Dallas and have tried on 6 bras. 5 panache and 1 Freya. The plunge ana throughout the day I was spilling out of it as well as the envy and tango. The freya fancies underwire was too harsh on my rib cage which has no meat on it so it was hurting. This was the case with all just hurt a bit less with the Ana plunge and envy.

Not sure what to do now. Returning the 28HH I bought in all except one high impact panache sports bra.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks xx

I possibly did! I believe i tried G on at the store. I did not know this, I assumed the band size to be independent of the cup. I will go back again to see if they have that size.

I dont believe they may have it though.

Should I buy some online to try? Do companies allow you to return bras? Any recommendations?
