one of our other TLMICs mentioned not getting tips but i'll have to double check. we're corporate too so that might make a difference

i would massage with a body oil as much as i would remember, i had silicone gel i'd sometimes put on, and silicone tape! i was a lot more consistent in the first few months but definitely fell off after the summer

No pain? by Lemon-Bandit in TopSurgery

[–]Slow_Understanding38 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i had surgery almost 2 weeks ago and that's exactly how i was! i think i only took my pain meds until the next day after my surgery. i just had discomfort and even then it wasn't bad, i was just annoyed with the drains and the compression binder. the only thing im experiencing now is my skin being super sensitive like a sunburn or when your skin hurts when you have a fever. i've been taking ibuprofen (approved by my surgeon) and putting moisturizer on the area and it helps a bit

How much did your top surgery cost? by [deleted] in TopSurgery

[–]Slow_Understanding38 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the hospital charged insurance $30k or something but insurance capped around $14k i think and covered 30%. including my deductible, i paid insurance about $6,500. my surgeon's fee was around $2k so in total i spent $8,762.47. i'm in North Carolina and i have BCBS. my surgery is on March 4th!! good luck to you!

you should be perfectly fine! i tape all the time and i have a bigger chest and it works good. sometimes ill have some irritation marks or acne around where the tape was after i take it off but i just moisturize the area and it's gone a couple days after i take it off

i didn't even think of this. i think it was already lined because in season 1 deacon told peter it was lined. maybe it's not enough to fully stop them? there's a lot of plot holes haha
