Tubular, uplift, implant, freaking out a tad Started by: Poppy

Hey hun! Try not to worry Dr Fiumara is amazing I had her in early Dec for a ba with mini uplift which involved cutting and lifting my nipples. I’m 12 weeks post op and really pleased with my results.
I had 325 mod plus unders and stayed overnight at the Fitzroy.

I too was concerned about scarring but Dr Fiumara is a real perfectionist and her incisions are tiny and very neat – she is renowned for her very neat stitch work and achieving the natural look ask any of the Mya staff.

I have started to use a silicone gel that Dr Fiumara reccomended by kelo cote to help bring down the pink colour and lighten it too. Which gets really good reviews online.

Feel free to add me if you want to see my journey. You have made an excellent choice in surgeon so try not to worry much you’re in great hands

Here’s a before/after I took last week hope that helps!

Hey hun thank you so much really appreciate ur compliments. Pre op I was a 30c and 12wks later I’m a 28FF. Don’t worry at all about other getting unders there are many reasons including how much tissue you have, ur age, thickness of ur skin and if you work out a lot!

The fact ur having overs means u have a good amount of tissue ans ur skin is suitable too! Overs take less time to heal so 7 days should be fine. Having extra things like an uplift means ur under for longer but I didn’t have any pain on my nipples they felt numb and one is still slightly less reactive than the other. I had quit my job a few and finished the weekend before my op so at that point so didn’t have to rush back to work and recovered over Xmas and into the new year. I started driving about 3/4 wks after the op and it felt awkward when I reversed and changed gears.

Some women see several surgeons but I had practically stalked all of Lindas work and career and knew I wanted her to do my proceedure even when she dropped the uplift “bombshell”. Like u I was worried about scarring and some of my so called mates at the time were scaring me and making me feel silly for booking it.

I did lots of research and just ignored them! My true mates have been really supportive and really impressed by how they’re healing. It’s honestly the best thing I’ve done and I’m so glad u had the mini uplift too as I think it made a lot of difference to my final outcome. I only realised looking back on my pre op boobs how low they were and they would have been much lower had I not lifted them. Fxx

Hi Polly,
I’m so glad I saw your post as I’m in the exact same position as you! I’m having 275cc and 350cc overs due to assymetry, I’m also slightly tubular and having a mini lift (modified mastopexy) with Dr Fiumara.
I was hoping for unders as I also want a really natural look but she said overs would be best due to the asymmetry etc.
I’m booked in for 24th April so I’ll add you and let you know what to expect etc! Xx

C an you tell me for Uplift do you lose all feeling in your nipples? I am borderline and scared too have uplift as i do scar easily. I had it in my head though that an uplift would leave a vertical scar too, is that not the case? I know this sounds daft but what will be where your nipple was previously? Is this skin taken off?

Thanks @fran i had the appointment last week and was told i don’t need an uplift which is great. Probably will do further down the line though so its good to know.x
