Rachel Recchiais updating fans on her recovery after getting breast reduction surgery.
The Bachelorettestar, 27, shared a videoshowing the process from prep to recovery, and replied to fans asking how she was doing following the procedure, which took place on Mar. 7.
“I am doing well thank you so much 🤍🤍🤍,” Recchia told one fan. She also replied to another fan asking how she was feeling that she was “doing better than I thought I would.”
The video then cut to Recchia doing her skincare routine in the mirror and showing off her outfit for the surgery: black sweatpants and a matching black hoodie. She also showed clips of the drive to the office, her in a hospital gown dancing in the mirror and a shot smiling with her doctor.
The next few scenes appear to be post-operation, as she showed herself back in her black hoodie with her arms crossed on her chest. White bandages could be seen underneath the top of her sweatshirt. In the final shot, she showed herself ringing a bell signaling Parisi to help her out.
