Breast Surgery Complications
How long to complete recovery after a breast reduction?

I am considering a breast reduction. I want to know what to expect and what complications others have experienced.

I was off work for two weeks, then gradually worked his way back to the fully operational after a month. That could take a shower 24 hours after surgery, but some PS want, you can expect some days ... different PS have different methods. I just put back into the shower and let the water run over my incisions and sterile strips. Telfa Pads CVS / Rite Aid. They are nonstick mats you can put into the incision, but flee. I loved my incisions were made at least two months to close completely (not as bathing or swimming until the incisions are closed 10.000% otherwise you will get a serious infection!). My swelling down after a few months (although it may take up to a year to get its size final). My feeling is back after three months (but may take longer than a year to regain a sense). Scars take about a year away, as if whites did not put them in the sun or finally turns red. Use Mederma and ScarGuard and are nearly invisible (like mine!). Montana also has a "Arnica" I bought on Amazon site. It helped me with my bruising and swelling. You must sleep on your back for a while at least until the closure of incisions. It's a pain in the butt, but I bought a wedge pillow and helped tons. He knew that a fraction of a few stitches (looks like a grain of rice). You do not shoot the clips and, finally, dissolve or fall. Your incisions may crust. DO NOT pull the scabs. If you do not come off easily, a clip from the cortex, which is free and let the party still connected your chest out on his own. I had a small part of a crust, I stopped the next day I had this place open and disgusting that I had to deal with solutions. It took one or two months to heal. So do not pull the scabs off! Listen to your doctor. Any questions, ask the PS first. I found that the PS have different different methods. Like when to shower, when you travel, to do normal activities, how to treat open spots so I have tons more information for you, but what are the basics. This site helped me out tons before and after my surgery.
