After reconstruction/implants question
I had my exchange surgery March 23.
So I’m almost two months out. I have very little body fat so couldn’t do Diep flap. However, the plastic surgeon I had did liposuction on the insides of my thighs (which didn’t have much fat) and a little on the hips. My thighs were excruciatingly painful for a month. And blackened with bruises.. I was unaware of how severe this would be. But the biggest disappointment right now is the implants have ripples in them. The placement is nice and symmetry, but the fat that was harvested from my legs, and put around the breast implants to fill in, etc, must have dissolved or spread out because all of the fullness has dissipated and the ripples in the implants are just all too present. Is this just something most women have to expect who don’t have much body fat that have this surgery?
I’m not sure if I’m setting my expectations too high or?
