OK check it out. You can compare it to the pic I took last week. The swelling does look better but is still intense. We'll see what the Dr. says. And I do have a lymphatic massage scheduled for Friday but I am not sure that will help the seroma. I am reading conflicting info on if it will help the seroma or the general swelling.

I am happy with my breasts. Even if they end up a full B (pardon the tape residue - I had an allergic reaction to one tape and that area is sensitive so it hurts to scrub).

These are size 5/7 panties so even with the swelling I am in a small panty. That makes me feel good.

You have to be a friend to see and the password is tummytuck.

Hey Leah,

I think your seroma does look a bit better than before.  You do still look like you have lots of swelling. 

Hoping each day gets better for you.

Hang in there!

Leah, thanks to you and all the others who are so willing to share your pics, stories, and experiences. It really helps people like me who are preop ps. I haven't seen your latest photos, but the ones I saw earlier were amazing. Congratulations!

Looking much better Leah, must be relieved.  I currently feel like an umpa lumpa.

You look great...You see a MAJOR difference in your before photo compared to now and when the swelling goes down I am sure it will be awesome.

Leah,

thanks for sharing your pictures.

Compared to the before picture, your body now seems to be of a totally different person.

can't wait to see how you will look like after the three months mark.

I am sure you will look fabulous.

You only need to be a little patient now.  Congrats!
