BA with UPLIFT

by jodies651 25th February 2011, 2:48 pm

Hi I am new to the forum, so glad to have found it.
I was looking for some advice on Breast Implanst with Uplift, I am 4 days post op and was wondering if anyone could advice me on when the swelling will begin to subside. I have implants over my muscle. Thank you

Hi hun, I didn't have an uplift, but I did have a BA (overs) I found most of my swelling had gone by 2 weeks post op, and it was all gone by 4 weeks, but everyone is different, I think it can take about 3-4 weeks

Thank you so much. Once I can remove my sports bra and bandages I will be able to have a pic of my new best friends as my pic also dance

Cant tell you how happy I am to have found a site with such friendly and helpful people

Oh, did you have dissolvable stitches, I dont and I am getting mine removed in 10 days and was wondering if this is the painful part? xxx

I didn't have dissolvable stitches and I had to have mine removed at 13 days post op, it wasn't painful, and it was very quick. I really wouldn't worry.
This is a fab forum and very addictive.

Its fab to have found it, you can keep in touch with pre op, post op and even keep each other updated in years to come. I am new to it so not really sure how everything works but I am sure I will soon get to know it.

Thank you for answering my questions, it is so good to know other peoples thoughts and now no need to worry for next 10 days about stitches

:good:
