driving after arm lift

Wow fantastic, I thought I'd be 3 weeks at least! But Marnie, don't you hesitate to call me. We want you healing up well.

thanks Bev... and back at ya when you have yours :)  I will be good for driving for sure by then :)

Marnie, how are you doing?   Are you happy with the work Dr. N. did?  Did you have implants.  Bev has got me thinking about the BL combined with the arms.  Up until this week, I wasn't planning on it, but now I'm starting to wonder.  I go see Dr. Silverman on Easter Monday.  I'll be following Bev's progress closely.  So tell me how you're doing.
Thanks

When you go for your consult and try the implants on, I bet you will be sold too lol. It's such a small difference (in price) if you are already getting the lift done.

I took Marnie to her first post-op appointment with Nodwell. I got to see the incisions and he talked to me about what was done. He wasn't sure what SIlverman did different. I didn;t ask Silverman about how much lipo he does on arms so you may want to ask, just to know. Marnie has so much range of motion for the length of the incisions, I was surprised when I saw them.

 I will ask him about that.  I'll let you know what he says.  I had talked to him once before about the lift and he cuts from bottom to nipple, then around the nipple - like a lollipop.  I think when I asked Nodwell he said he would do the smile (to follow the crease of the breast) which I think is nicer.  Anyway, will keep you posted.
Thanks

I am doing well thanks.. My worst complaint is the swelling but you will get that with whatever surgery right.

I had my breast lift with auto aug with no implants last May and that healed up perfectly.  I still have a full C small D.... so I didn't need implants....  I LOVE dr Nodwell... but seeing Bev I say Silverman rocks too :) 

with regards to implants... go with your gut... if you think your going to be left with no breasts then you may want to consider it.  I mean I always had big breasts... when I was pre op I had triple D's... so to go down to nothing would have been devastating... Heck now I think my girls are small... but really they are a great size. :) 

I would say of all my surgeries the breast lift was probably the easiest part.  The arms don't hurt mu*****isions get a little achy and if I bend my arm to far it hurts... and the swelling is annoying but... ya know... I think my hernia repair/tummy tuck was the most painful for me... but then there was MAJOR work required for the hernia and it was like a 9 hour surgery... so that will take the cake for me.

Good luck with your decision.. Bev is gonna rock it and you will want it for sure. :) 

 Thanks for the advice.  I can hardly wait for my consult.  I'll keep you posted.  Glad to hear that you're doing so well.
