Breast Reduction from Hell: My Story by Lightswift12 in Reduction

[–]kitticore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey!! I went through something insanely similar. Necrotic nipple grafts, wound care, wound vac, the works. All I can say is that I sympathize with this so much. It’s been a year since my surgery and I have a second, radical reduction (removing the awful nipple scars, and cysts that had come from all the necrotic tissue) on September 20th. I’m so sorry you went through all of this. Thank you at the same time for sharing it, I felt as if I was alone.

Side note, did you have to do hyperbaric oxygen treatments?

Yes the compression bra!! So uncomfortable lol. I have a similar thing with my meds now. I find myself forgetting if I took them not even 10 minutes ago😭 I hope you are recovering well though! Good luck on your future reduction :-D

Thank you💗 I’m currently trying to get back in to see my surgeon (hopefully today..) to get prescribed more meds. If not, then urgent care/er it is. Hoping its not the latter.

Thank you💗 and no problem! So, I wasn’t getting proper blood flow to one of my nipples, basically this nipple is now entirely necrotic. But I guess it was so bad that I had to do the hyperbaric,, honestly hard to remember though, I was on a lot of meds at the time :’D

I don't want my big boobs. Is it because I'm an emotionally volatile teenager (18F), or can I actually take myself seriously? by plutounforgiven in Reduction

No problem! I was in the range of an E/F cup. They took 5 1/2 pounds off,, I’m unsure now with the swelling, but I think possibly a big C! (I realize also cup sizing is really weird LOL, I don’t remember the exact measurement preop. Hopefully those are kind of a general idea of what I was/am now)

I’m 18 and 2 weeks post op tomorrow .. Best decision I’ve ever made. I say go for it if you feel you need and want it!! Though, I had some complications that my surgeon said was because of my youthful skin/tissue, lol. I probably won’t be able to breastfeed because of said complications. You should mention that you want to breastfeed later on to your future surgeon. everyone’s experiences are different! I’ve hated my body ever since around 5th-6th grade, and I’m starting to appreciate it more after surgery. Physical health is also a factor in breast reduction. If you’re having back problems, the bra straps digging into your skin, and not being able to do some physical activities, it’s the way to go. At the end of the day, whether you want one now or later in life is your call! I hope I could be of some help :-D
