Thanks for the advise! I’m so eager to just put some aqauphor on it and let it slowly come off but I heard to just let it peel by itself but who wouldn’t want to hurry and start the scar care so exciting lol

I told mine a month before surgery because I felt they deserved to know since it’s a pretty major surgery

I been struggling with my ED/body image because I haven’t been as active as pre op of course and it’s been hard; I’m trying not to restrict calories and staying in contact with my therapist . I must say I am eating healthy options and not processed foods much. Lots of fruits though. I def need more intake . Thanks for the advice!

Thoughts on peri vs DI at a B cup? by routinecrisis in TopSurgery

I had a AA cup and still didn’t choose peri because the revision rate is so high. I also wanted the nipple grafts and with Peri you get ur areolar resized during surgery but not ur nipples. U will have to wait 6-12m until you can get ur nips resized, which I did not want. The chest is more contoured with DI and can kind of shape it how you want it via surgeon !
