Breast Augmentation with or without Uplift? Started by: Catherine

    Hi, this is the first time I have posted on here. I have spoken to a few girls and you have all been very helpful – thank you. I have thought about a BA and TT for years now. I’m 31 and had twin daughters when I was 19 so my tummy has always bothered me and no matter how flat it is, and how many sit ups I do, nothing can get rid of that extra skin. :-/ I saw a surgeon a couple of years ago now about having my boobs done – I can’t remember his name but he was through Transform and I wasn’t very impressed. I was in about 15 minutes and he said straight away i’d need an uplift. Today I went privately to see a surgeon who did my friend’s breast augmentation with uplift and he was great. I was with him about an hour an half and I feel reassured about the tummy tuck but i’m still having doubts about the boob job. He didn’t mention me needing an uplift so after a while I told him that the other surgeon had said I’d need one and he said he didn’t think I needed one. He was suggesting a shaped implant (looks fuller at the top, sorry i’m rubbish with the technical names!) and said this would give the impression of a lift. He reckons that my nipples would only be lifted by about 1.5 to 2cm and didn’t feel it was worth it. Also said obviously a lift involves more scarring and is more costly/ harder to recover from. In one way I think, i’m sure if he thought I needed a lift he’d tell me as he’d get more money but on the other hand I don’t want to spend all this money to then feel they aren’t right? I’m just concerned that the implants will drag my boobs down further? Has anyone else been torn between having a uplift and just a normal BA?

    I had a BA without lift . I had big implants 615 cc very happy with the look . I will add you so you can see. Such a change, I think everyone one who has a BA has to sleep in support bras , I’m oftern wearing mine during the day evern tho I done have too .yes they are heavy , Eventualy gravity will take over for us all , you have to weigh up the pros and cons . 🙂 x

    Thanks hun, yeah add me that’d be great. I know I should probably just take his advice but when it’s this sort of money involved I will probably worry about it right up until the day lol.

    Feel free to add me, I had a full uplift with 340cc. I saw 2 surgeons, 1 suggested bigger implants & the other suggested an uplift with smaller implants. The surgeon who suggest the uplift explained that as I have damaged skin with lots of stretch marks that unless I had the uplift I’d need them doing within a year as the weight wud sag them again. That seemed to make the most sense to me so went with the uplift. I’d have preferred them to b bigger but as was costing so much wanted a result that was going to last. It’s a weighing up game tho, I ummed and ahhed for a week! x
