Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Reassured it was the right decision for me!
I tried my Christmas party dress on today and feel so comfortable and confident in it. I'm almost certain without the surgery I would not only have felt uncomfortable about my appearance and most likely not even gone to the party! That said, I again commend you ladies who choose to explant- you are fabulous role models!!
Good luck to everyone who is on their own journey- do what is right for you!
No regrets xx

I did it!
I'm not weeks post op and have no regrets. I replaced my implants with round textured 520cc silicone. Thanks again to everyone who supported me and helped me make my decision
Good luck to everyone with however you decide to proceed! X

I've made my decision!
These last 3 months have taken their toll on me mentally. I have spent hours searching through this site, looking at Google and observing, poking and prodding my boobs. All the while looking after a 6 year old and a now 10mth old. I'm exhausted and can't think about it any longer!
I've made my decision and I fear that most of you ladies will likely disagree however I believe it is the right one for me. I appreciate everyone who has taken the time to comment and offer their support as it has helped me to make my decision based on a balanced view (not just a surgeon's).
I have decided to go ahead with replacement rather than removal. I have my 2nd consultation with my private surgeon on Friday and will likely book my surgery for the end of October.
Not to justify my decision but more to explain why, for anyone else in my situation who is undecided (and not to sway either way) I want to share my reasoning:
1. Until I finished breastfeeding my 2nd child, I had no problems with my boobs. I liked my boobs!!
2. I have not suffered any ill health, autoimmune symptoms, back aches, breathing difficulties etc...
3. Before I had my BA I felt p'd off every time I looked in the mirror, felt self conscious about my body when being intimate and frustrated every time I went clothes shopping. All this and my breasts were only small! Not sagging. Not covered in stretch marks. Not looking wobbly with excess skin. I don't think that I can deal with the daily impact it will have on my mood (as shallow and dramatic as that sounds)
I commend the ladies who have had the confidence to explant- if I didn't have children then MAYBE I would have had the explant and taken a wait and see approach. BUT for my current situation I don't feel that I can go under GA twice and rely on family and friends for 2 lots of recovery when I am 80% sure that I'd want the implants putting back in anyway.
I wish everyone good luck with their journeys and will continue to keep an eye on this forum as I know nothing (especially implants) lasts forever and in 10yrs time maybe I won't be so vain! But for now I think I will kick off a new review in the implant revision forum if anyone wants to see how things work out for me.
Best wishes x
