Hello fellow jbi gals. I am 2 wks post op with a ba/bl full anchor and my incisions arent completely closed yet they are mostly closed except for the vertical incision is still seeping a little I noticed its only really after I take a shower im thinking its because it gets wet and opens alittle again not much very little at my 1wk appt plastic surgeon said its normal to seep alittle so not to worry but geez im tired of wearing this gauze cause i dont want to stain my sports bra. Guess im just venting sorry im just impatient want to have nice looking boobies already

I had a BL, but with a crescent lift. My incisions were sealed good with only a couple scabs by 3 weeks. All scabs gone and definitely closed by week 4 - 4.5.

However, my sutures were internal - and although all looks good on the outside I was told I could pop stitches, and most women do so in week 5 when they think all is good...

Congrats on the new girls!

First I want to start by saying congrats on the new addition, do you know if you have internal stitches? If not it may take a little longer. I didn’t have a lift, just a regular breast augmentation, my scabs all came off 3-4weeks… my best friend had a full lift and she was pretty much normal, at 4 weeks… just take it easy…

Thanks for your replys I have all internal stitches I noticed today that some of the scabs are coming off so I must be on the right track. Like I said im so impatient lol. They are more sore when I use the strap cause it pushes down on my boobies putting pressure on the incisions I feels so good when I take it off. All in all I love my new boobies.

Aww!!! Well than yes you are defintiely on the right track. Just remember that even when the outsides are healed, the insides are still closing, and you can still pop stitches. Im glad you are loving your boobies. Arent they fabulous

And dont worry about the impatient thing, I bet it would SO hard to find one girl post-op on this site that wasnt impatient at one time or another!
