I stumbled across Realself recently when beginning the process of researching having surgery in Thailand. I have found one review particularly helpful ( 35 year old mother of 2 Thailand wanting to get "the girls" put back where they belong) and have just been asked by the Community Manager to begin my own blog and I thought - why not, if everyone shares information then it will make it much easier to make informed decisions about this life changing journey.

I have only just begun the journey and have a long way to go yet. I have started with a number of enquiries with medical holiday companies and also contacting surgeons directly. I am still waiting for some replies and as such cannot make any comparisons yet, although I have started a spreadsheet of all the information. When this is complete I will be more than happy to post it.

Welcome Vixta. Thank you starting your review and sharing your journey. I found this site to be so helpful not only in the planning stages but also as I recuperate. The support from this community has been invaluable to me and I hope you will find it helpful as well. I can't help with Thailand questions but I had a breast lift 6 weeks ago. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Thank you Newmeaug13. The more I read the more nerve racking it seems to be, there are some horrible experiences posted on here but there are also a lot of positive outcomes. If I had a choice I wouldn't get implants but sadly I really don't think I have enough breast tissue to avoid them. I will certainly ask you anything I need help with as the question list fills up!

I felt the same and would have preferred to not have implants but I just didn't have enough tissue to have a good result.

A bit bewildered....

So the quotes are coming in.

I have two from Companies that are not dissimilar in price. One Company wants you to book your accommodation and flights with them (Surgeon not researched yet by me) and the other states you are free to book your own flights and accommodation (Surgeon Dr Pitchit, recommended by a friend)

I have one Doctor direct just reply (recommended by a another friend) and he has said that because I asked to be a D cup in size I will have to go twice, once for the lift and then return a year later when the scars are fully healed for implants! I don't really want to do that, perhaps I should go a bit smaller?

My concern is that so many ladies on here state they wish they had gone larger. Now I'm confused as I really appreciate the fact that the surgeon cares enough to suggest the gap and not risk the healing not going so well.

I did forward pictures to all of those quoting. I'll upload a before now as well so you can see where I'm starting from (uneven in size and very saggy)

Your thoughts would be appreciated....

I haven't made any progress this week, the reply from the Doctor who wants to do two Ops hasn't replied and the two independent Doctors clinics haven't replied at all which doesn't give me much confidence.

Perhaps I am better going with one of the two companies.

I had a call from Kerrie from Medi Makeovers and she sounded lovely and sent me a revised hotel option but their price is still around $400 dearer than Destination beauty. She warned me off them as they are Bangkok based but I have read good and bad reviews about both Companies and money is money hence going to Thailand in the first place!

Decisions decisions! Need to book soon as it seems bookings are made about 6 months in advance......
