Booked in for revision surgery January 2025

WORTH IT
It’s been so long since I’ve been here - it’s nearly 10 years since I had my first breast implant surgery.
I’ve just booked a revision for January 2025.
This time round there’s no feelings of excitement and anticipation, all I currently feel is anxious and scared!
I’m around the same weight I was when I had my first surgery but 10 years later they just don’t look the same. Gravity is taking effect and I’ve noticed wrinkling of the implants down the sides. They are also starting to pull a little between my cleavage.
If these were the reasons for a revision I probably wouldn’t bother just yet but what’s really playing on my mind is simply that I’m tired of having such big breasts ( in my eyes anyway!) I wear a UK32FF - yes I used to love it but now I’m a little older (52) I’d prefer something a little more subtle.
I’ve attached a photo taken last week for my surgeon to demonstrate how far in front of me they stick out! Ughhh!!
I’m scared because i keep questioning if I’m doing the right thing - what if I wake up and they’re still too big/I don’t like them/I miss them……

Has anyone down sized? All comments appreciated xxxxx

Mr Meleagros is very professional, extremely helpful and explained the whole procedure, pros and cons very carefully. He performed my daughters BA approx 5 months ago and she had a fantastic result. I went ahead with my BA with full confidence in the surgeon and I am so happy with my result too :-)

Hey beautiful lady - I am 10 years post this December, and I have the same feelings as you. What kind of revision has your doctor suggested? I would think that a slightly smaller CC and lower profile will hopefully give you the results you wanted? I was so torn for years that I went too small in the beginning, and I am alsmot feeling like I am finally ok with it, ha ha! I never expected the mind game that this all is. I really hope you are doing well, and will get your 'as perfect as we can get' results. XO

Hi lovely lady, goodness me I remember talking to you nearly 10 years ago, how time has flown! Your last pics look fantastic - really rather what I wish for now!! My surgeon has suggested 350 moderate under the muscle but he’s asked that I see his partner for a 2nd opinion. I loved the look of my implants for many years but as I get older I just feel I need something a little more demure!
If only I could go back a few years and tell myself to stay on the smaller side. Fortunately for you it’s worked in your favour :) Xo

I'm glad you're having another doctor's input.
My implants are Mentor 390cc gummies, high profile projection. I ended up choosing a narrower implant than my breast pocket measurements. I was terrified of going over 400cc.. I didn't quite understand how the cc size didn't equate to volume at the time.

I wish you beautiful and amazing results, can't wait to see the outcome!! Enjoy your Christmas

I saw him yesterday and I already feel a lot less stressed! He’s suggested a lift (eek!) and smaller implants (size will be discussed at my next (4th) appointment) I must say they are being very thorough, I honestly feel like they want to help me achieve something I’ll love.
Tbh I think you were so very wise staying under the 400s….. my surgeon this time round said do you realise how big 445s are…. He put a sample implant on the desk in front of me and I was mortified at the sheer size!! If only I could go back in time and have a word with myself.
Thank you so much for your lovely words, wishing you a wonderful Christmas Xo

Hey! I'm thrilled that you're feeling better about your decision. I'm sure you're going to achieve exactly what you want and need! It's huge that your doctors are being so careful and listening to you. I'm excited for you, XOXO

Hey beautiful, just checking in. I hope your revision is everything you wanted, and that you're recovering well!! XOXO

Hi lovely, you’re so sweet to remember me Xo
I finally had my revision surgery 22 March (they didn’t have enough theatre time with the original January date to do my lift - so I’m currently a mere 4 days post op!
I’d forgotten how nail bitingly tedious this first phase is - the not being able to do anything part! But honestly I’m so glad to be out on the other side. A new era for me with smaller breasts, such a relief!
I hope all is good and lovely with you, isn’t it a joy to finally feel the spring sun again. Wishing you well :) XoXo

Lets talk rippling and strange angles

User Avatar

Hi gorgeous BA ladies xxxx
I hope you're all doing well :-) The sun is finally shining in the UK today, whoop!! feeling happy happy happy.
Huge apologies for the lame text across my pictures, I've never considered any of my images "pornworthy" but I don't wish to get proverbially burnt again.
So...... 9 months. I've been asked what my implants look like lying down, leaning over etc, questions of do they move like real breasts or do they look bolted on at all angles.
Mine squidge and flop around plenty when I'm on my side etc - I don't mind that they drop towards my armpits like real breasts when I'm on my back as one of my big fears pre BA was that they'd be firm and look stuck on at all times. Thank goodness that was just a load of nonsense, phew!!!! ;-)
The same pictures nicely demonstrate the complete absence of rippling. I don't know how I've escaped it, my cringeworthy pre BA picture shows how little natural breast tissue I had to cover the implants, yet here I am ripple free. How about you other lovely gals, maybe the newer implants just perform so much better?!
I had the Natrelle Inspira "soft touch" UHP implant - it's supposed to minimalise the chance of rippling, and in my example it sure did.
I'm currently on the hunt for some decent bikinis - any suggestions where to buy "little back + big cup" very gratefully received.blots of you have been travelling recently, where do you get your gorgeous bikinis?
To say I'm having a bit of a mare about it is an understatement!! Pre BA I longed for something to put in cups other than padding, Post op I'm looking for something to make them look smaller round the pool beach etc! I ordered a nice black one from Asos recently all excited that it would fit, looked in the mirror.... My first thought ??
"dear god I can't go out looking like this, I'll take someone's eye out!!!"
(Picture attached) New bigger breasts are not exactly child friendly - My 21 and 18 year old children were completely cool about my Op, but I don't want to be the embarrassing mum on holiday, cringe!!!! It wouldn't be as much of an issue if they were smaller (the children AND the boobs!)
Wishing you beautiful ladies lots of happiness xxxxx

Wanted to add that I do have rippling and though it bothered me at first I'm ok with it now. My dr said we used the best implant available to prevent it but sometimes it's unavoidable. I'm ok with it though since I love everything else about my new boobs and they get better every day! I hope you are doing well! I left RS for a bit but reactivated my account and added some pictures back to my revision review.

Hi girl! I don't suppose that you get on here anymore but I wanted to tell you I had another revision and now have the smooth uhp 650 Soft Touch inspiras! Got them 8 days ago and love them!! My textured inspiras got recalled so I wanted them replaced and upgraded to the Soft Touch! They weren't proved in the USA when I had my last revision so I jut had the Responsive ones. As for rippling, I can already feel it! Oh well, I love how firm they feel!! I hope you are doing well!!

hahaha bikini shopping can be a challenge which i'm on right now. Before I wanted everything with padding and no problem finding it now try to find something with no padding ...a challenge. good luck i'm sure you'll find something appropriate for the pool.

I think triangular shape is probably the way forward = no push up but no nasty tan lines! I hope you're doing well, using this phone app means I miss so many updates - it's a bit frustrating!!

Warning - my Realself pictures are appearing on <i>[RS bleep]</i> sites :-((

Hello beautiful BA ladies [RS bleep]

Unfortunately this is not my usual upbeat bright and breezy update.....

Today a fellow Realselfer took the time to email me following an unsavoury revelation - my Realself review pictures have been found on [RS bleep] sites. Ughhhhh!!!!!!
I guess this was always a risk/threat but I never thought for a minute that it would actually happen. Maybe I was just naive!! :-((

My review has always been purely to help you lovely BA ladies through a stressful, daunting, but very positive experience. It's just a crying shame that there are shady individuals lifting images off this support forum for unsavoury gain.

So the question I now face is .....
Do I remove all my pictures from my review?
Thoughts lovely ladies please - what would you do?
Do I in future only post fully clothed ones such as this pic attached??

Wishing you all lots of happiness xxxx

I'm horrified to read this. I'm so sorry!!

I can't advise you as if it were me my knee jerk reaction would be to delete everything in a panic and never come here again, running and hiding my head in the sand. It's appalling that people can lift photos from sites such as these, where the intention isn't to be titillating but to educate and support others. And in all honesty, RealSelf is useless without pictures. I'd think they'd be proactive to protect their users somehow?

Ok maybe try to look on the bright side now that the damage is done; staying pragmatic, you look so smoking hot that [RS bleep] sites are using you?! I don't know, I'm sorry, I don't think this is an easy one to figure out at all. I wonder how much those sites are getting paid to use your perfect body for their gains. :(

Big hugs to you! You're one of the most supportive people on here and to see you going through this is horrid and unfair.

I think it depends on how you feel about it. Me personally, I don't think it would bother me. But if it bothers you then do whatever YOU are comfortable with :)

I've thought long and hard, slept on it, and yes it does bother me, but what bothers me more is removing my images from here - my review would then be so less helpful. Ughh

Luckily I've never included my face in any of the pics, I just can't understand Why any of them would be [RS bleep] worthy as they are so anonymous, crazy!!
Thank you so very much for your support, it means a lot :-)

I'm so sorry love! Stinking pervs ruin everything! I would be more ok as long as my face and or other identifying things weren't included. I'm sorry again

April 27, 2016
Thank you for your support Hun, means a lot to me - luckily I have never included my face so my husband is not annoyed either, phew! I'll just be more cautious what I post in future, even if I removed my images now they're still floating around elsewhere.
April 26, 2016
I'm really sorry to he'd this as you've been a huge help to me. I'm always very cautious of posting online because unfortunately a bunch of sickos do exist in this world. If your face isn't in them then that's at least good. The thing is, deleting them from realself won't delete them off their servers or off of whomever's PC copied them to the other sites. So they could and most likely will still be floating around on the Internet. I hate to be the bearer of this type of news. I work in IT so I am always inclined to share what I know. My advise would be to make sure your face is always cropped from now on. Ultimately the choice is yours whether or not to take down your review. Whatever makes you feel comfortable is what is best. Just wanted you to know how helpful your review has been to me and how thankful I am for your posts! Good luck with your decision dear. And again I'm sorry you had to deal with this :(
(Actually on another note... It seems like lately a lot of fake users have been created using photos of well known RS members.... What is wrong with ppl, no life seriously)

DreamingOFCs I know hackers know all ways to get images but can't Real Self but a picture as un-clickable and un-saveable. ? I know my photography page has it,,,, Why didn't they think of this already. And to use others images, like in a "wish boobs" situation they must ask the poster for permission and have it sent through a private pm?
User Avatar
April 27, 2016
Thank you so much dreamingofCs - your warm words are of great comfort - knowing that my review is useful to you lovely ladies makes the downside easier to bear. There certainly are plenty of sickos out there - I was just naive enough to hope it wouldn't happen to me. My pics aren't just on my review, like you mention they are on unknown servers and on other lovely RS ladies reviews, deleting my pics now is I guess like locking the stable door once the horse has bolted.
As for the fake users, were what?? Seriously some people with a lot of time on their hands!!! ;-)
Realself would be pretty pointless without images, I'll just be very mindful of future postings - luckily my face wasn't in any of them (seriously I don't think any of them are [RS bleep] worthy anyway, crazy!!)
Thanks once again beautiful :-))

April 27, 2016
I'm wondering hautemama3, even if the images were unsaveable, a simple screen shot would still capture the image? All very frustrating, Realself would be pointless without pictures :-/
User Avatar
April 26, 2016
OOOOOHHH NOOOOOO, WHAT JERKS! I'm so sad to hear this. I don't think you should remove the photos, because to me it's like the bad guys win! Then everyone would remove their photos and that's what makes this site so great. I think you should notify Real Self and demand them to screen members better, or have them place a lock on member's photo's so that they are un-saveable. Does that make sense. I know their are ways to do it, but it's up to the company to change their software or whatever it's called. You're my inspiration and I'd be sad if you weren't here. I know this can be worked out for the majority of goodness, and maybe we should all notify the company and pressure them about our privacy and safety. HUGS

Thank you so much for your support Hautemama3 - it makes the downsides so much easier to bear! I think I've just got to be really careful exactly what i post - I really didn't think any of my images were [RS bleep] worthy but it takes all sorts hey! It rather serves as a lesson to all of us here - unfortunate, as we are a support network, but we must be careful. You are so lovely, and thank you again :-)
