I never had boobs until I had my first child. Loved breastfeeding... think that's why I did it for so long! LOL
I just adored that full feeling and how feminine I felt for the first time!

Now I just feel that I need to be happy with myself. I just turned 46 and if I don't do it now, I never will.

Had my consultation over a week ago and I have my pre-op appointment tomorrow!!! :)

Surgery booked for Thursday 8th June!!!!!

I'm having 400cc round subglandular Mentor gummy bear micro texture silicone implants. Op to be done with local and sedation!!!!!!!!!

I know I'm droopy and lopsided but I'm OCD about feelings....and I cannot imagine having different weights of implants on each side!!!
I'd also worry myself silly that the wrong size was put in the wrong side!!!!

Initially I thought I wanted the anatomical "teardrop" implants and I just talked about them at my consultation. But as soon as I was walking out of the clinic.... I realised that I actually really wanted the round implants.

I want the fullness!
And it's one less thing to worry about.... if the teardrop implant rotates.... yuk
But there's no change if your round implant rotates!! Yay

I am a little worried about what example I am setting for my 12 YO daughter..... I just told her today!

I am having way too much fun playing with my 400cc rice sizers in different tops!

If I'm this happy with rice sizers I can't imagine the silly grin on my face after Thursday!
4 sleeps!

Well today is the day!
I've been waiting for this day for years. Ever since I decided not to have any more kids!

Had the best nights sleep ever. Unbelievably calm. I'm normally a very nervous person but I'm so sure I'm doing the right thing that I'm totally relaxed.

Although that may change when I'm on the operating table!!! LOL

Hopefully my last tiny boob pics will upload.... I'm in the car atm.

Happy healing to everyone on this BA journey.

Cannot believe how good I feel!
I felt like I could've gone home less than an hour after my procedure.

Seriously, that was an amazing experience. Everyone at Elanic in Bath Street Glasgow was Fantastic, so kind, caring and utterly professional.

I highly recommend BA done with local and sedation.
I feel awesome!

I know it's early. I only got out of surgery at 12.20 and left the surgical centre at 3.30pm.

I'm sitting at home now, hubby is running about after me. Nothing new there!!! LOL
Love that he's so attentive.

Keeping on top of my pain meds. Got hubby to adjust my right surgical bra strap, it just felt that it was pulling my boob too high and the body strap was digging in to my scar. But it's Vetter now.

My wonderful surgeon, Mr David McGill is a genius!
He doesn't use dressings on the scars.... his sutures are covered with glue! So no need to get dressings changed or removed!

He said I can shower as soon as I want!

Hopefully my pics will upload.
Sorry I didn't remove my bra.... I will do pics with no bra as soon as I'm able.

So far I'm absolutely ecstatic with my new boots.
Right nipple feels like it swings between hot and cold.
I might try some ice packs later.

Happy healing everyone!

And if anyone has any questions about having BA without a general....just shout! <3

Pics didn't upload earlier so I took some more and I'll try again!

Still absolutely over the moon with my new boobs. Thanks to this wonderful website I know not to be alarmed at the slight "frankenboob".
I am confident that they will drop and fluff beautifully.

I can't stop smiling!
I can't stop looking at them!

And I can't Thank all the RS contributors enough!

Didn't suffer morning boob because I never got up! LOL
But I did get burning sensation at the side boob. Pleased to report I can still feel both nipples.
Lefty is a bit numb like it's had a shot of novacane but Mr Right is completely normal feeling!

Can hardly see my scars... haven't dared wash yet so it's hard to tell what's pen, what's scar and what's glue!

Feel a bit stiff but it's very early days!
Still happy and still grin like a Cheshire cat when I look down and see my new boobies!
Love them!

I feel amazing!
Incisions still a bit sore and boobs alternate between stiff/ sore to soft and lovely!
They are over muscle but it feels like they have spasms.
Love my new boobs.
Love looking at them and I Love the feel of them.

My PS did an amazing job as I can't even feel or see the implants!

I'm a very happy bunny!

As a point of interest I'm 5'10" 86kg and had Mentor Siltex 400cc silicone (12.5cm round 5.3cm projection) subglandular inframammary incision.

Here are my pics for the end of day 3 post op. I am in love with my boobs.
I've asked the Doctors about drop & fluff as I am over the muscle I am wondering what else I can expect from them!?

I'd be perfectly happy if they just stayed like this from now on! LOL

I am still getting boob spasm now and again but ice packs get rid of it.

I'm not sure either if I have less swelling with over muscle???

Have my post op review with the nurse next Saturday.
I'm so happy with everything!
I'm so lucky.

I wish for everyone to be as happy with their boobs as I am.

All my life I have had a squinted rib cage. I was bullied at school about it. Every time I mentioned it at medical I was told when I "developed breasts" they would hide it.
Sadly that never happened.

All that's happened is that the breast I did manage to grow on that side was pushed off to the side!

This was particularly pronounced when my breasts got real droopy after breastfeeding.

I'm so happy that my new boobs have managed to disguise this malformation.
But this is the reason why no matter how big my boobs are.... they will never come completely together and the nipples won't face front and centre!

Feels like I've really turned a corner! It's only been a week but I feel awesome.

I sat in a lovely Epsom salt bath then hubby showered me down and washed my hair.

I have scar prevention tape but to be honest there is still too much surgical glue on my scars. I thought it might come off in the bath!!

Got my post op appointment on Saturday - maybe they'll have something to help remove it.

No pain killers needed now and thank goodness I can move my bowel now!

Absolutely love my new boobs. All my clothes look amazing on me now.... even in my surgical bras! LOL

I think I have a very good result especially given my twisted rib cage and droopy boobs!

I can lift my arms up and there is absolutely no separation of implant and boob.
And I love the slope, I think for round implants they look quite real and they still have to soften!

They definitely feel like me!

So it was my post op appointment today. Once again, everyone at Elanic Glasgow has been Fantastic. I cannot recommend Elanic highly enough.

Had some pics done and my lovely nurse had some Great advice especially for going on my holiday and looking after my new boobs!

She even thinks they are looking great!!! Which makes me sooooo happy

I can't really believe that it's only been 9 days!

I've made a wee collage so hopefully it will upload 1st time.

Oh yeah and I checked out my Implant ID card and I have High Profiles!!!
I Love them.

Happy Healing everyone [RS bleep]

Gorgeous sunny day today and I got my new boobs out for their first taste of summer!

Lovely and soft already. They move like real boobs and even fall to the side when I'm flat on my back.

I always wanted a natural look.

I'm not even 2 weeks post op but already feel Fantastic

34F OMG
Cannot believe how much I love my boobs! And boy I never thought I'd ever say those words!

Wonderfully soft, they move very naturally and push together beautifully.

Every woman deserves to be this happy with their body!

Best thing I've ever done!

We that's me and my puppies on holiday! No, seriously I brought my 3 doggies!!! LOL

All joking aside, I am loving sunbathing with my new boobs!
Open air of course!
I have heard that sunshine and scars don't mix but to be honest my scars look great!
I have 2 C-section scars that got sunlight early on and they are almost invisible!
Maybe I just have good skin!

I am rubbing Vitamin E oil with 4 drops of Frankincense essential oil into my scars. Vitamin E oil on my breasts and nipples.

They are really soft and utterly natural looking. Haven't hit the beach yet but for the first time ever.... I'm not frightened ?

Wishing everyone a super Hot Sexy Summer!

That had to be the fastest 6 weeks of my life! Back to real life.... and the typical Scottish weather! :(

Looking at joining a different Health Club... one with a gym this time (not just the saunas and steam rooms) LOL

Feel more at ease to wear tight clothes and to lose weight. Weird right... but I was scared to lose weight in case I lost what little breast volume I had!!!

Worry no more! Health kick here I come!

Breasts just feel like they're mine! Really soft and bouncy. I am going to look after these girlies... good support at all times (well when I'm not sunbathing topless that is LOL)

Anyway... all being well my pics will upload.

Hope everyone is healing well and feeling super sexy with your new bodies!

Love to all [RS bleep]

Just had my 3 month check up with my lovely PS.
He is as happy as I am with my results! I love my BA and I cannot recommend Mr David McGill at Elanic in Bath Street Glasgow Highly enough!
He offered to see me again in 6 months... but to be honest, I can't see a reason why!
I know they are always there for me should I need them.
I also have the enhanced warranty with Mentor and my PS.
A small price to pay for complete piece of mind!
I wish everyone such a smooth and happy journey as I have had!
Life is too short & precious to waste it not being happy with ourselves!
Go for it!

Having seen a good review for this surgeon has only compelled me to write this review and warn anyone that might be thinking of using him to not. I had my BA done with Dr McGill when he worked for Transform in Glasgow. He ill advised me on the right size of implant for me and what I wanted results wise that I ended up having to go for a revision 8 months later. After my first surgery I was left with and still am to this day with large, ragged red scars that are 8cm in length. They are not in the correct position and are clearly visible from all angles whether I’m standing or lying down. There is no way to correct these scars and I am left feeling less confident than before my surgery. In the last 6 months my implants have also started to separate from my muscle and after going back to transform I have been told that it is because the pocket which my implant lies is not of the correct size for the implant and it is in fact ‘bottoming’ out. This surgeon has no clue what he is doing please do not get any kind of surgery with him. Given that he has worked in 3 of the major cosmetic clinics in Glasgow alone is a clear indication that he has botched up more than my surgery.
