Have any of you had a small revision to TT in office? My right side above my incision bulges and he is going to do local, remove, and sew me back up. Have any of you had this done in office??

My left side still looks puffy but my PS and I both think it may be swelling. But if it doesn't look any better when I am 6 months post TT he said he will do the same that you described...minor revision in his office.

My doctor had talked about some touch up lipo being done during an office visit so I would imagine some small procedures could be done there as well.  I am having some laser work done and that will be done in the office as well.

I did. I wasn't too bad. The worst part was getting numb.

How was recovery? I woke up from my initial surgery in so much pain I refuse to do that again!

Did you like the outcome?

Thank you!

I was able to return to life as usual the next day.  I had a 6" part of my incision redone...it was kind if concave...so he pulled down some skin from above. 

I tolerated the pain fairly well both times.  With the in office revision I just took Advil.  I plan to actually have another revision to that spot when I get my back done later this year. That part of my incision is much higher than the other side and it drives me bananas!

Mell: sounds like a dog-ear if it is puckered.
I have I my breast lift and mine hurt especially the left side.
I'm scheduled as Day Surgery local anesthetic (one side only) for 22/10/13.
I too am nervous about it and the pain of after. I actually thought of taking a Valium on my way to the hospital to be more calm for the procedure.
When are you scheduled? Please update.

Thank you all. I am not scheduled until January, he said it takes around 6 months to see the actual results and it we would have a much better turn out. I dont have dog ears the incision is just gathered a bit and I have a hang over. I had a Anchor cut TT but it is the entire right side that needs to be redone. 

I am just worried, I have small children, work and home life are busy this last surgery recover just killed me. I am glad to hear the recover is quicker and the pain is less. 

I will keep the board posted after surgery

I am more than a year after my breast lift and my dog ears hurt.
I had pre-op in July for my October apptmt.
