POSTED UNDER Breast Lift with Implants REVIEWS
26 Years Old Undergoing a Breast Lift with Implants and Vaser Lipo. Eek! - Australia
ORIGINAL POST
I've found reading everyone's reviews so insanely...
WORTH IT$14,000
I've found reading everyone's reviews so insanely helpful that I feel I should add to the community and write my own! I haven't seen many reviews from girls my age undergoing both a breast lift with implants and an area of lipo! I should also mention that I have not had any children and don't plan to have any in the future. If my partner and I change our minds we will cross that bridge when we get to it!
A bit of a background info.... I am 5ft10 and currently weigh156.5lbs. I battled with eating disorders during high school and university. At my lightest I weighed 120lbs and at my heaviest I weighed 201lbs. Needless to say constant weight loss and gain has taken a huge toll on my breasts and my behind! Not to mention my self esteem! As I've remained at a steady weight of between 156-163lbs for the past three years I think it's finally time to do something!
My breasts are the typical empty sacs of skin that look like scrunched up paper bags! Zero volume or fullness - just skin! I feel so gross. It's so hard trying to dress to cover up! I hate bikini season, hate buying lingerie and hate dressing up for nights out! My boobs ruin every nice outfit! I am so excited to finally sort these puppies out with a breast lift and implants. The implants I am getting are high profile silicone and I want them over the muscle. My surgeon says I have enough fatty tissue to make this work. I haven't quite decided on a size yet - but I am considering 375 or 400 cc. My surgeon says he will take both in to the surgery and decide when he can see what they look like.
My fluctuating weight has also left me with saddlebags and banana rolls! I am extremely healthy, I exercise regularly and follow a healthy diet. After years of eating disorders I can finally say I love my body minus my boobs and bum. Which are pretty important aspects as a young woman. I don't care about cellulite, stretch marks, blemishes etc but I am desperate for my boobs and my bum to match my age. Nothing I have ever tried even slightly improves the appearance of my behind! You name it I've tried it, squats, lunges, donkey kicks, glute bridges, Hypoxi, body brushing, scrubbing, alpha shape, firming creams, running, cycling, crossfit, insanity.... I could go on! It shows through workout pants, leggings and tight jeans. I never ever wear bikini bottoms without shorts over the top. So as I am going in for my boobs I am also having Vaser liposuction to give me a helping hand! And hopefully get the body I've been dreaming of! Quite literally! I go to bed thinking of my surgery every night! I know that liposuction of the banana roll area can be tricky and difficult to do correctly. I've sought a lot of advice and done a lot of research and my surgeon says as my skin is firm and I am young the procedure should give me the result I expect! My butt is actually really quite firm and I'm totally happy with the size and shape, it's just the weird pockets of fat I've accumulated underneath!
So that's me! All booked in for the 11th of April 2016! I absolutely cannot wait! For anyone who is interested I will post some before and after photos. I have one final consult with my surgeon before the procedure. Eek! xx

How exciting all booked and ready to go! When is your final consult? You should be really proud of yourself for looking after your heath, eating disorders are such a hard thing to battle with. I'm really excited for you and am looking forward to reading your updates x

Thank you! I am feeling the healthiest I've ever been in body and mind so I think it's a good time to go ahead with the surgery. I've been thinking about it for over a year but I wanted to make sure I was definitely stable first! I am super excited I have an actual surgery date :-) I can't stop thinking about it and have a countdown app on my phone haha! I just need to pay my fees and buy my surgical garments. My final consult is on the 21st of March. I'm not sure what to expect?! A final run through of the procedure and some aftercare instructions?! He's already given me so much info but not a great deal on what to do afterwards xx

You and I are very similar! I am 28, no kids, 5'9" tall and have fluctuated in weight over the years and around 150lbs now. I still wear a us 32dd/34d but I lack upper pole fullness and need a lift. I am scheduled for a BL (vertical) with implant and hopefully lipo of flanks (I have to go over fees) on 5/27. We sound the same - healthy with areas of resistance and need a boost in the boob dept! Good luck to you. I'm sure you'll be happy
March 13, 2016
Thank you very much! Good luck to you too! It helps to hear from people in the same situation! I will be posting some after pictures so hopefully they can help. I wasn't going to get the lipo even though I really wanted it but when I mentioned it to my surgeon he said he could do it in the same procedure for an extra $1100aud! There is no way I'd get it that cheap in the future so I'm going for it. Do you know what size implant you're getting? X

Not yet - my preop is in early
May. I know I want moderate profile (not flat and not high) and I don't want to be huge but I want to achieve the look and fill I get in pushup bra. I'm not sure what size I will need for diameter because I have broad shoulders but a narrow ribcage.

Ah fair enough, I am sure your surgeon will be able to tell you and help you decide! I keep worrying about my size! I want to look like I've got big boobs but not stupidly big and disproportionate to my body. Im seeing my surgeon next week for a final consult before my surgery. I've so many questions to ask him. I'm hoping to show him some pictures and ask if the look I want is achievable. X

Goodluck with it all. I m way older just had a vertical lift with 435cc implants 4 days post op. So far so good. You'll look great
March 14, 2016
Thank you so much! It's such a nerve wracking yet totally exciting experience! Yours look really good! You must be thrilled :-) Good luck with the rest of your recovery. X

Hi, who is your surgeon? I am also in Australia and looking for a surgeon. I'll be following your posts. Best of luck :)

Hello! Thank you for your comment! It's coming round soon now but also still seems like so far away?! I am having my surgery with Dr Robert Goldman in Perth. Where are you located? X
March 26, 2016
I'm in Sydney. I have seen a couple of doctors so far but I haven't settled on anyone. It's a big decision and I need to be sure. I hope it goes well for you, I'll be sending well wishes..:)

Loan approved!
My partner and I applied for a personal loan to finance my surgery and have been approved! Just waiting for the funds to appear and then I can pay my surgeon and aneasthetic fees! It's all feeling so real now. Starting to get a little bit anxious!

Do you mind me asking where you got your loan? ☺️
May 4, 2016
Of course not! I just got a personal loan with my partner through our bank. Mac credit turned out to be a massive rip off and my partner refused to let me pay them! So we applied together as the bank wouldn't accept me on my own x

Some more before pics..
My breasts look so sad and sloppy in a bra! I have to literally rearrange them in there. Granted I could definitely squeeze them in to a smaller size but I refuse to spend money on bras with surgery so soon! The bra I am wearing is an Australian 14c, I am not sure what size that translates to. I used to fill it out ever so slightly better but in the last nine months I have lost a bit of weight due to being gluten and dairy intolerant!
