I'm not a small girl but I've always had a small chest.
Surgery always seemed so extreme, especially considering my proportions would be better if I'd lose weight. But after 10 years of considering it and brushing it off, plenty of weight loss and weight gain, various fitness injuries and physio or rehab sessions, I've decided that my size doesn't factor into it, because no matter my weight, I'm just not happy with my boobs.

They're small - I have boobs, but they're definitely small - uneven, and 'drooping'.
The shape is definitely my biggest complaint and I'm so excited to be fuller and rounder!
I also notice this diagonal slope outwards in my cleavage - like my crease doesn't actually drop; it's quite high and it just kind of curves out.
Hopefully this makes sense when you look at photos.

I'm looking for more volume, better symmetry and a balance in my proportions.
I've had my initial consultation, a nurse's consultation and today(!) I finally get to see my surgeon, Dr Solomos (at Harley Medical Group in London), to make some decisions on size and shape.

My mom's not thrilled with it, but she's coming to London (from Canada) to help me out in Aug.
It just took a few talks. "I never wanted fake boobs. I don't want fake boobs. I'd love to be natural. But I don't want my boobs either. I just want to be comfortable with my chest.'
It took *me* a long time to be comfortable with the idea of surgery/implants, so I knew she'd be upset. Now though, a few months after I decided officially, I'm SO excited. I honestly can't wait.

I'll try to keep pictures and developments updated.
Especially because the majority of reviews I've found have been for girls who are quite thin or very in-shape and I feel like I represent the minority - girls who gain weight, everywhere but their chests. Hopefully that helps someone in their own journey or in their decisions, whether or not they pursue surgery.

I see this procedure as mostly corrective, so I'm trying to be realistic in my expectations, but I can't wait to feel like they aren't so sad looking. This post will be updated later today with my surgeon's input!

Thanks for sharing your story. I know our decisions are made with our love ones in mind - that's just our womanly nature. We have to try and remember that we are doing this for US and if you like it ok - if you don't like it ok. :)

I'm super excited, too. I hope all goes well with your surgery. I look forward to seeing your updates.

I've just had my consultation.
We had to shuffle my dates, as Dr Solomos would like me to get a small lift - which I am definitely interested in, but had been advised against in a consultation with a different surgeon.
It made perfect sense for me though, if he can make it work, without the lollipop scar, as it will mean a fuller chest, much less droop and ONLY a scar around the nipple!

Anyways. I took some before pictures, and I'll update with after pictures from Aug 23rd, onwards

I'm definitely nervous, but more excited than anything.
A little scared about who might clock it at work (especially considering I work in a primary school), so hopefully there isn't too much judgement there.
That being said, I've done my research and I know I trust my surgeon, so I'm just going to have faith in the process. I'm prepared for them to be gross for 1-3 months... healing, fluffling & dropping all take time! Hope yours goes well! Good luck x
