Your Post-operative Appointments
Post-operative Appointments are for the surgeon to gauge your progress and assess any further needs you may have to improve your results or experience and for you to share your thoughts, express concerns or simply gush with happiness about your outcome. Here are some tips you may find useful to help you prepare for these appointments and get you through them. Hopefully you will have determined the cost issues of future post-operative check ups. It is best to discuss this beforehand than be surprised with additional costs. Some surgeons do not charge for post-operative appointments for up to 6 months, others up until a year, and others, free post-operative check ups forever.
Prepare your thoughts and go over any concerns or comments you'd like to make known about the below issues:

Don't be afraid to discuss any concerns you may have or any dissatisfaction you may be feeling. Just be sure that you knew that you are still healing and will continue to heal for several months before you can judge your outcome. Some complications or undesirable attributes can be seen within a few days or weeks whereas some may take a few months. Please see our BreastReduction4You.com Message Board for support from real reduction patients who have had or are presently experiencing similar feelings.
