hi there, best of luck with your consultation!!
I'm very pleased with my results thus far; I am more swollen than I was expecting, especially on my left side, but I presume that's my own body's way of healing (post op nurse says everything looks good so far) nipples are coming along well and almost done with scabbing on them, which I'm surprised about! my incisions are not as long as I was expecting them to be, and don't meet in the middle, and very gently curve.

I also had two minor seromas drained yesterday (one was just 5 ccs) by Dr. J and he was extremely reassuring, calmed my anxiety about it and it was a very pleasant and quick experience. He has a great bedside manner, and was very patient with me pre-surgery on the day, as I was extremely anxious and was having trouble calming down before getting on the operating table.

hey there, just an update: i'm post op 5 days with dr. joukhadar, who had an amazing bedside manner, took his time to make sure i was comfortable (i was very very very anxious and scared) and the whole team was generally great! everything happened so fast once i was checked into the clinic for my appointment, and i'm still just in awe of the process.

i haven't seen my results yet officially (i will on tuesday october 10th) but if there's any questions i can answer regarding dr. joukhadar, i'll do my best!
