I couldn’t open my prescription bottles with the pushing down so having a safe space to leave them open was important for me :)

I'm three weeks post-op from double incision. I didnt have drains (thankfully) but i have been advised to wear my binder for a bit longer because of lingering fluid/swelling. And honestly, the whole thing was pretty casual. I didnt really have any big emotions leading up to it or afterwards. My lip did start trembling at my post op checkup but overall, I just feel comfortable and like me for the first time in over a decade. I also have an adhesive allergy so i cant tape my incisions (i was told to if I could, but it isnt a big deal if i cant)

If you or someone you know sews, you can make drain pockets that you can safety pin to the inside of your shirts!

Got mine done years ago keyhole and it was a easy smooth recovery, my only slip up was accidentally scrubbing a towel after a shower on my nip rather than remembering to dab and accidentally messing one of my stitches, so one of my nips is not 100% circular compared to the other. Nothing a cool tattoo can't fix!

Please listen to your surgeons and follow their advice. I felt absolutely fine right after so I just carried on as normal and absolutely ruined my nipples, I’m now having to pay to have them tattooed on. My surgeon was fantastic but being an idiot I didn’t listen to him telling me to slow down and take time to heal. My chest itself looks amazing
