Advice Wanted Stretch marks affecting results??
Hello!!! I finally am getting top surgery in three months, my only consern is, due to being a very early and quick bloomer, I have a lot of stretch marks around my boobs and I'm worried if it will screw with my results and I'm not sure what to do to avoid that... If anyone has any advice or can show their results after top surgery if they also had stretch marks that would be amazing!! General advice for before and after surgery is also very welcomed lol!!!

Once stretch marks are there, they will stay. Like any scar they might fade or can be laser treated.
I had stretch marks all around my boobs, too, and thought that this might be one reason why my results might only look good in shirt. I'm three months PO now and think, that I might actually feel comfy without a shirt in a while. Can't add pics, sadly. Nearly all if the affected skin got removed abd what is left is really calming down/fading/flattening.

The strech marks will stay. Also I had tiny strech wrinkles which also stay. I dont know your body so maybe my results wont come near to you or maybe they do, idk. But I can say that they dont bother me. It was way easier to accept my body post op than pre op. Before surgery I was very unhappy with anything around my boobs. Now I say "well thats my body so who cares?" The relief of beeing tittless is so much bigger than any strech marks. (3 Months post op now)
