I know the struggle... back pain, shoulder pains, tension, struggling with finding the right bra size, the marks on your shoulders caused by bra straps, heyyyyy it's just a lot😭 running after a bus or taxi and they just come out and you have to constantly put them in place every 30 seconds.

[@lettyk_m]

Thank you❤️

[@arymhansie]

Wonderful, I hope to see after pics, I am planning on having one but am afraid of the pain factor!

[@lettyk_m]

It’s wasn’t painful at all, and this is coming from a person who is also scared of pain😊

[@arymhansie]

@@lettyk_m That's wonderful and gives me hope! How many weeks did it take you to recover, bend or do chores in the house? Thanks for replying.

[@lettyk_m]

I was able to do chores without heavy lifting and reaching for high places within 4 days

[@arymhansie]

@@lettyk_m Brilliant! I really appreciate your replies, take care.

[@doudoumthembu7277]

Discovery also rejected mine. I was on a plan where I was paying 4k a month for 7 years and they still rejected

[@prudencemthembu4476]

Ive done my consultation. My surgery is due on the 8th of January 2025. Im scared but i wanna do it....The consultation covered a lot of possible complications of the surgery. I left the doctor's room very sad😢

[@afiks-s-6078]

Hi Letty, congratulations babe, any update on scar healing? My sister is looking for a doctor but she's worried about the scars. Other surgeons use stitches that heal better than others. What's your intake on the scar healing with your doctor.

[@EllenBapela]

Oh wow "I felt lighter" ❤❤❤🎉 I am so happy for you Babe!!!!!!!!

[@lettyk_m]

Thank you babe❤

[@musawenkosinjengele5590]

How do you search doctors under that can be covered by Discover?

[@musawenkosinjengele5590]

I am under Discovery Anglovaal and I live in Cape town as well and really interested but I want a doctor that is under Discovery. So please assist on how do you search

[@Princess_Letso]

[@EdwardDaka-c6i]

[@aminahassan3588]

[@thatomoledi6384]

Hey hun, did you get the 4 injections on your spine and what was the experience like?

[@lettyk_m]

Hey hun, no I didn’t get those

[@love2journeywithjackie391]

Please share the brand of the zip front bras that you purchased.

[@lettyk_m]

I bought them in takealot

[@papie2100]

How long did it take before you could walk around and do things for yourself like showering etc. post op?

[@lettyk_m]

I could walk immediately after surgery. But I had limited movement on my upper body. I was able to shower, make my bed and wash dishes after a week.

[@ZinhleSibiya20]

Hi❤️ How long did it take to do your surgery from the time it was approved/confirmed?
A week /day/month?

[@lettyk_m]

Well I scheduled my surgery first while I worked on the approval. I was determined to have with or without medical aid assistance but I got approved 3 days before my surgery.

[@stargirlstarboy2168]

Awesome dear. ❤️

[@MondayVictoria-r4e]

Hey please how can i reach out to you?

[@lettyk_m]

You can use tiktok or instagram DMs. @lettyk_m

[@tebellolebusa5746]

I recently reduced my a week ago. Am really having stiff muscles and they also numb.

[@Lokicool228]

How are you feeling now Tebello

[@lettyk_m]

Hi Tebello, how are you feeling now? Did it get better?

[@tebellolebusa5746]

I actually had to go back for second surgery because I had an infection. That was my worst nightmare. However I am recovering pretty well right now. Though I still experience some stiffness on the other breast. I think the swelling will go down in due time.

[@lettyk_m]

@@tebellolebusa5746 I am glad you are recovering well ❤️‍🩹

[@SamukelisiweMbanjwa]

Can i ask after how long on ya side were u able to bath ya self and make food etc

[@mondz_mondi3322]

Hi love, how long was the process if I may ask? From booking to ops

[@lettyk_m]

Hi, it was about a 2 months, but I had to upgrade my medical aid and also consider Doctor’s availability.

[@nalikhuleni5006]

Do they use a catheter during the operation?

[@lettyk_m]

Nope they didn’t use it with me. Though I am not sure if that’s the case with everyone

[@lisaofficial3791]

How much

[@lettyk_m]

Check from 8:30, that’s where I mention the costs estimated without medical aid, then with medical aid co-payment

[@Nanga_N]

Plug with your Dr's details please sis
