Correction BA in April (2012) with larger implants
Today I scheduled my 2nd surgery for April 13th. They will be fixing the problems from the 1st surgery that was done in May 2011 and putting in larger implants (now 500-ish, going to 800cc.) As time gets closer, I can't help but to think of how scared I am because of the problems I got the first time (I am using different doctors) and that the new doctor is going to do the incision at the areola and I had it in armpit last time (obviously wasn't a sucess though!)
Is it painful when done through the areola? I have no idea what to expect. Anyone want to share?
Thank you!

Hi, good luck for the operation I hope you will be pleased with the results this time. What is bothering you, the shape or the size? It must have been very painful to do it from the armpit and it takes longer to heal, but usually you get very natural results if done properly. I think from the areola will be less painful, especially since you will have corrective surgery (which is said to be less painful than the first time).

Thanks ladies! I feel better hearing that it should be less painful. I am excited to get what I what I hoped for in the beginning.
xaxa: I am getting boobies fixed due to implant pockets not formed correctly. One side is flat and dented on half of the boob, the other is being squeezed so hard it is projecting too far forward; I am lop-sided. So getting that fixed.

Hello Spicysunshine
I had a revision op for pocket problem last Tuesday - its feeling so much better already - Ive had the pocket lowered slightly and had the inner and outer scars revised too. Its difficult to say if its as perfect as the other one yet because theres still lots of swelling but Im very hopefull.
Just wanted to say its defiately easier the second time - cant say about having an areola incision tho cos mine was in the crease too.
I really wanted it done that way origionally but my PS didnt do that way. I think you'll get a great look that way (from the pics Ive seen on the net anyway). Have the scars under your arms healed well?

Re: Correction BA in April (2012) with larger implants
Hello! I just had my revision done Tuesday. I had 330cc saline and now I have 460 cc silicone round smooth high profile. I will be honest with you (everyone is different) but this time I'm hurting way worse that my 1st BA. Maybe because they are bigger?? And I am completley swollen EVERYWHERE. Not just my boobs. I have to be back to see the PS in the morning so he can un wrap me and check everything out. I haven't even seen them yet! ANd I'm rather nervous too. lol I had the revision done due to rippling. My 1st BA was 8 years ago..I'm sooooo nervous to see them!!

lots of luck for the morning! Am sure all will be perfect. Pain could be due to bigger but i also think after 8 years its like starting fresh cos your bod will have been so used to the other implants its become like part of you. I am the least patient person in the world but we both know thats the answer hon, a little time to heal.

Re: Correction BA in April (2012) with larger implants
Oh!! Don't be scared. I mean I guess it's "bareable" pain..I also feel like everytime I stand up they are going to fall right off. lol It actually feels better when I sit up rather than try and lay back even slightly. My doc also only prescribed me SIX hydrocodones. My Husband got more than that when he got his tooth taken out! lol SO now Im just taking ibuprophen. And he has this wrap on me so tight, I feel like THAT is making it hurt more than what it would if I didn't have it on.

Re: Correction BA in April (2012) with larger implants
UPDATE on mine. I went today to get unwrapped. I pretty much found out WHY I have been in so much pain the second go round. I wasn't stitched. I was STAPLED this time. I was so incoherient when he came in recovery to talk He didnt fully explain what happened. As I have gotten older I lost more breast tissue along the way since I had my first. He was really worried about it so I got staples. BUT, he "unveiled" them babies today and they are sooooooo prettttyyy! ALl of the swelling has went down already! And I'm only 4 days PO. Insisions are not draining. I have ZERO bruising and they are already getting soft! I was soooo worried! For nothing. Damn, I wish I joined this forum sooner. lol Becuase everything I heard here was pretty much what he said lol.
