Breast Reduction Healing: When Recovery Feels Slow


If your healing feels slow, you’re not doing it wrong. After breast reduction surgery, it’s normal to have days when you feel strong and others when you feel like nothing is changing. But healing doesn’t happen in straight lines — it happens in spirals, pauses, and quiet moments where your body is doing unseen work.


This post is part of my From the Vault series, revisiting the earliest pieces of my breast reduction journey and sharing them again for anyone who may have missed them. It’s a gentle reminder to trust the pace of your process, even when it feels slower than you hoped. You’re not behind — you’re becoming.

Hi, I'm Shelley Beyer.

I’ve been through breast reduction surgery myself, and I’m here to support other women on that same path—before surgery, after surgery, and in the everyday healing that comes after.

​

I believe in reducing inflammation through a carnivore way of eating, preparing the body with intention, and creating space for the emotional, physical, and spiritual recovery this journey invites.

 

If you're navigating your own transformation, I’m so glad you're here.
