Before and after pics....ARMS! (post yours!)
It's going well thanks. The arms frustrate me a bit, I will probably feel a bit better once the scars fade a bit. Makes me sad that I don't feel comfortable in short sleeves. Skin, scars, all the same in a way. They look good though. No golf ball elbows, he did a great job, The scars are pretty thin though very visable at the elbows : / (they wrap around a bit too far for my liking)
Breasts are good. When I sleep on my side though, then move in the am, I get a large amount of pain, implant under the muscle maybe? I see my surgeon for follow up tomorrow so will ask about that. Breasts look great; I wish the implants would drop though. I feel football player like lol.

The scars can take awhile to fade. Massaging them with an polysporin ointment or vitamin e oil can really help. I don't really think the topical application makes that much difference but the massaging does. My scars can be seen at the elbow also but if I didn't show people I don't think they would really notice. We are much more critical of ourselves than other people.
My breasts did the same thing when I slept on my side. The pocket is trying to make scar tissue and if you massage them also it tends to ease some of that discomfort. Mine dropped by about 5 qweeks out and I had to have help with one of the tight elastic bands worn at night to get them down. I hated that band. It was so uncomfortable. Even after they drop and you notice the change they will continue to gradually change over time and even drop a bit more. In the beginning you think they will never look normal but they will. It sounds like you got great results. I'm happy for you. Hang in there!!
