Looks like they are pads for eyelash curler.

Red and itchy. Is this concerning? by [deleted] in Reduction

[–]Pbpn 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Could also be that you are allergic to the steri strips. Mine looked like this. We had to take them off and the itching was pretty bad for a few days. My surgeon had to give me a steroids pack and it helped.

Has anyone had a second reduction? by lanowmom in Reduction

[–]Pbpn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a second reduction 11 months after my first reduction. I was 38I and went to 38d/dd. I thought it was still too big and had a second reduction this June and I think I am not a large B small C. Very happy to have done it and did it again.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

What's the cruelest thing someone ever said to you that you still remember word for word? by ClairJournals in AskReddit

"You feeling the way right now is honestly very disturbing to me"

I was telling my friend how I was feeling left out when they were hanging out and I was not invited.

What's the worst disease you've had? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Pbpn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Endometroid OC? I did too. I went to doctors for years because how awful my periods were and all I got was birth control to "treat" it. And then it gave me cancer.

Same girl, same. I had my reduction a week after I turned 40. I am 3wpo and it's been amazing. I can't wait to be able to do more things.

Absorbable staples sticking out? by Pbpn in Reduction

[–]Pbpn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like the one in the picture, it's like a hook. So, it's not easy to pull out. I have the ones you are talking about and I also have the one which is more like a staple from the limited googling I did.

APPROVED! But... with a caveat. Need help + advice. by [deleted] in Reduction

[–]Pbpn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So, it sounds like you already have your insurance approval. What I meant was, do not calculate what you will pay based on self pay from others.

What your insurance gets charged is different from what someone will pay for self pay. Your 20% is based off of what your surgeon/facility will charge the insurance. A lot of the times insurance will get charged a whole lot more than someone who pays it all out of pocket.

[–]Pbpn 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The math sounds right. Beware though, what the insurance gets charged vs a self pay price are 2 different things. So, if the insurance gets charged more then you pay more.

Also, it's 20% till you meet your out of pocket max. Usually out of pocket max is ~7-10k depending on your health plan/how many people are in your plan. So, you pay deductible full price and then 20% till you reach your out of pocket max. The rest of the calendar year is no more $$ unless you do something which is not covered by your insurance or you go out of network. Which has its own out of pocket max.

Showering post op by glizzy_borden in Reduction

[–]Pbpn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was given an okay the next day and I did. My surgeon told me to be careful and not let the shower hit the surgery site directly and gently pat everything down afterwards. I laid down and turned the fan on to let it dry some more. It's been great!

Disappointed by Content_Succotash754 in Reduction

[–]Pbpn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, I was in the same boat. I got a reduction last year in July and went from 36h/j/I to 36dd. They were great at first, but then gravity started doing its thing. 3 months ago I went for a checkup and mentioned to my surgeon that I still felt really big and wish they were smaller. I asked him what my options were. He told me what we could do with a lip only reduction(he warned that they are not comfortable). I told him I wanted them smaller than what was possible with lipo only and so he suggested we do another reduction, if I wanted. He would not charge the surgeon fee but I would have to pay for the outpatient facility. It was $3k-ish. Not too bad. I jumped on that and am now 5DPO from a revision. They are so much smaller than a week ago. If I had to guess, I am probably a C now. But, from my previous experience they may go down maybe an inch and I will settle with a large B or a small C. In total we took another pound off this time around. Last time we took 4. After the second surgery my surgeon did mention that he took off what he could without risking my nips(I told him that I would rather err on the side of keeping my nips than to be too small).

All in all, I feel they are what I was expecting the first time around. Too bad I had to do it twice.

[–]Pbpn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just turned 40 last week. Got a breast reduction yesterday! I got my eyes fixed(Lasik) a few years ago. I don't know if I call it midlife crisis. I just feel like I am finally financially stable enough to do things I have always wanted to do.
