Hi there,
I am preparing for my right expander to be put back in and then both left and right expander will start expanding

SO....my question is what should I expect for pain when they are in the process of expansion. soreness, pain, achiness? so sorry for all the questions. Just feeling alittle anxious.

My experience with the xpanders was smooth until my body rejected both with in a month of after they had been filed to about the size I wanted. I had them replaced and all went well. It is strange watching your skin grow its just like blowing up a balloon. There was only mild pain that Tylenol can take care of. Good luck and hang in there.
