Im 34 mother if 4. From the age of 12 I had 34dd boobs then by the time I was 18 36ff! Of course every time I had a baby they wiuld balloon to 36j! Iv hated my breast my whole life. Now thanks to breastfeeding they're worse than ever coupled with 3 stone weight loss over last 5 years ive got the skin if a ff and the filling of an a!!


Im not greedy I just want a lovely handful of dds that dont need a fish slice to put in my bra or having to keep pushing them back in when they slither out!!
Im booked in with vera satankova at bbc direct. The closer it gets the more nervous I am especially funnily enough about post op and the recovery as im normally runninf after a 18 month old as well as 3 teenagers!
Will keep you posted
Anyone with any experience with this please would be lovely to hear from you x x x

Well 2 weeks op tomorrow and outer...

Well 2 weeks op tomorrow and outer strapping/bandage all came off in the shower. Have left the strips over the stitches on didnt wanna touch them just yet. To br honest am really scared to take them off incase it shows any gayping or problems with stitches!! Thats just me being anxious mind as no signs atall of anything untoward going on so far!! Will buy antiseptic spray tomorrow to spray on as advised to prevent any probs.
Cant wait til all healed properly and the fun can really begin!! Lol! Not sure how many months itl take ...hopefully not too long! ! Will update pics tomorrow x x

4weeks post op
Right boob is higher maybe 3 cm and looks squarer than the left.
Vera has told me its fine and the left one will slowly follow suit and be the same as the right. its hard to see in the photo its higher cos its flatter than the left.
Scars have healed amazingly
am very very happy with the left so hope right one hurries up and catches up with the left boogie!!xx

Sorry i meant ..left one is good the RIGHt one is...

Sorry i meant ..left one is good the RIGHt one is higher flatter n squarish!!

Am getti g really worried. My right breast is...

Am getti g really worried. My right breast is higher square in shape and flat compared to the one on the left.its also quite empty at the bottom. The left one is petfectly rounded heavy at the bottom with a lovelt shape. Im almost 5 weeks post op. Does anyone have any experience with this?? Theyre both quite softish now so am reluctant to think its swelling. Will the implant 'drop' into place??im confused cos i thought they were placed where they should be?? if so why is left one fine??help........x

Hi sorry haven't been in touch been a busy month...

Hi sorry haven't been in touch been a busy month and baby dropped my phone but am back daaaaarrlings!!:-)
I am now 7 weeks post op and am back to normal activities hooray!! I don't have any pain and all my scars have healed brilliantly. I have noticed however the scar line on my right side comes out at least 2" further than my left and so is noticeable from the side where as the left is very short and can't be seen.
My right breast is still very high and squarish and the lower part of the breast is empty and droops as the implant is too high up :-(
I have raised my concerns to Vera who tells me when I left the clinic they were both full at lower breast but when I've checked photos from clinic there is clearly a difference in breast at that early stage. She tells me nt to worry as is still early days and I should wait at least 6 months as breast are still changing. Is this just a fob off?? Anyone have any experience on this? I have googled and lots of ladies saying there's was the same and at 12 months all was fine but on some others the dropping never happened :-(
All a waiting game I suppose. On the up side my left breast is perfect in every way!lol!
Am still wearing the surgical bra and band as instructed but am soooo bored of it now!

Great review?

How you doing hun?..xx

wonder if we needed a revision we could go back?..i feel really annoyed that she didnt cut on my origional BA scars...coz the breast tissue wants to naturally fall to there and the anchor is quite a way above it...on the whole they dont look too bad considering what i had..and the nip..vera said she used a template but they are completely different!!!...im massaging too...does all your boobs feel lumpy and is there any bruising still...one of mine still is a tad bruised nearly 6 weeks on.xx
  • Reply
Hiya my right one is still bruised a tad. No not lumpy but then iv had implants. I would measure them ur self then send her measurements she surely can't argue with that! I asked about massag she told me absolutely not to but maybe again that's cos iv got implants. X x

Hey love....so good to hear your update...mine is tge exact same...she has cut a good quater inch above my origional BA scars so my anchor is not in my fold...and it bloody anoying as hell!!!...and ive got one nip bigger than other which is very noticable.xx

How u doing love?.xx

Hey love, how you doing? i got a response to my email (took about 2 days, is that about right). Vera thinks looking at my pics i might have scar retraction in the fold, she suggested i start with pushing my fingers in to it for 10 secs 3 times various times a day....eeeek!!!!...that sounds a bit scary to me and it feels far to early, im worried id split my incisions..the square boob still feels rock hard under the skin like there is lots of bruise, hardness under there..im not getting too depressed yet about it...i know there is still lots of healing to be done..Vera said there is no way my nips can be different sizes as they are very specific in the opperating theater...i am sure they are different sizes, ill give it a few more months before i make my final decision. Have you emailed them again? xxx

Yes me...lol...but without the implants...its all very distressing. Still waiting for a response to my email but i imagine to be told its all normal. You look lovely in the pics though...i can see one is sat a tad higher nut not massively noticable!!...have you got a band..that might put em into place. One of my implants was sat higher...it never corrected unfortunately but mine werent unders and i know unders do drop. does your scar on the square boob look like its pulling into your chest...what looks like its making it square?...my lefty is perfect too.xx

Hey Julie, its day 20 today, i just took off my tapes in the shower and im freaking out. Nipples look different sizes and one looks like it has just been stuck on (like a 3d nipple). It also looks like ive been cut twice down my vertical (although on closer inspectiion i think thats just the stitches pulling in. The thing i am struggling to accept is the square boob at the bottom which looks like by boob is being sucked in by the stitches or something...i am a bit worried...did you freak out at first?.xx
  • Reply
Hey hun. I did freak when i first took my tapes off and had the same feelings about my nipples they looked superimposed on and thought they were in different positions but now my scars have healed they look petfect and as my breast are settling down theyre shifting more evenly in position. I too have that squarish shape to my right one aswell asit being higher but vera says this will all change over the next few months . Dont panic altho i do admittedly every single day!!lol!! if xx
  • Reply
Do you think? i do hope so...dont know if i could work with a sucked in boob..:(...ive emailed the BBC support email with all my pics..i was supposed to send them Thursday anyway to see what she says...i do hope they even out. Did you get the whole tiny flaps of skin on the outside of the nipple lifting up when you tried to removed the tape...i didnt like that at all....made me want to pass out in the shower...i am hoping it adheres down and no skin falling off drama's. xx
  • Reply
Yeah i know what u mean like its been stuck on in the middle with sticky back plastic!! My nips were the same but have healed really nicely x x x
  • Reply
Lovely!!..they look very pretty...and whats going on with your midrift?...how the hell you get a tummy like that with an 18month old..you sure u didnt get a cheeky tummy tuck while there...lol...im well jel
  • Reply
my right boob is doing the exact same thing...squaring at the bottom...funny that one is so much more bruised and hard in places...thats why i asked abput massage..to loosen bruising etc!!..ill give it more time..i bought spray todau for when i get courage to take the tapes off!!...have u any feeling in your nips?...any tenderness arpund incisions still?...if this square boob goes ill be dead chuffed with the result!!.xx
  • Reply
Hey hun no pain around incisions any more but not much if any feeling in nips!! though i think it is improving..i close my eyes n touch them with someat so i can see if its feeling inmy nips i can feel rather than my finger if u catch my drift!!lol!! I did same as u with codeine as painkillers from clinic werent so strong. Codeine n glass of wine at bedtime did the trick!!:-) Theyre itching like mad today and the skins really dry on them but think thats good means theyre healing. My midrift is positively bulging since the op sitting around all day stuffing myself silly...dont think iv ever eaten so much! Its serious diet time.....will start maybe next week lol!!! Hope alls good with you x x x
  • Reply
Yes mine are itching like mad and all flakey!!...everytime i take my bra off im all flakey and horrible. Did your scars on the anchor look a bit grusome to start off with? i know when stitches are first pulled tight they can make the skin look all twisted and distorted until they disolve etc and then the skin flattens..did you have this look too?. I think im going to brave taking the tape off on day 20, which will be Tuesday, im dying to see whats going on and also im sure it must be getting a bit mankey under there. Will i be ok not to put anything back on them once the tape is removed or do i need to go and buy new stuff. Can i just let them be once the tapes off or is that not recommended?. Did Vera say when you can give them a good rub? with oil/moisturiser etc? Yes i identify with the midrift bulging!!...im starting tomorrow, i dont want to be a fat bird with small t***s...lol...not a good look at all...need to get the torso matching the top half which i think looks pretty damn fit...thanks Vera, so far so good. xxx

Hi hun mine are pretty flat but scars are wider at cross over of anchor. They r very neat tho. I took mine off around days 14-18. No need then ti recover nust leave them be. I only put on anticeptic spray. Vera said no massaging but can moisturise the dry skin. I wiped my scars carefully wirh antiseptic spray on muslin just to get rid of manky bits!! Yeah i love mine too cant wait til i can wear proper bras etc n really have a play!!lol!!xx
  • Reply
Ive got this tiny tiny little bit at the end of the scar that looks slightly open..like it has not knitted together tightly like the rest...hope it heals and doesnt get infected...:(....did yours heal perfectly everywhere?...did you have odd places where you thought...oooo im not sure about that bit. If i need to ask a question would it be that eu support email that i would use...xx
  • Reply
Yes mine was like that on the ends and once tapes off and air got to em they healed nicely. The ends are like that cos its where the drains were. I also panicked were tge scabs were slightly bigger or lumpy cos was paranoid it was stitches that hadnt dissolved! I just wiped em gently with antiseptic wash. They heal so quickly once tapes are off x x yes eu support is the one to use xx its soooo worrying i know im paranoid about my right one being square n high!!left one is sooo perfe t want right one to be perfect RIGHT NOW!!lol! X x
