I had this but it’s gone now, I’m 9mpo. I always just assumed it was like bunched up skin, you know like if you sew up a hole in clothing and the fabric isn’t perfectly aligned lol!

Also, if you measured a 30G the BoB way, going on sister sizes which is more like how you’d get measured in marks and Spencer you’d probably be put at about a 32FF / 34F anyway 🙂 x

Hiya.
The boob or bust page believe that all the support comes from the band so needs to be as small as possible so the cups go up. I used to wear a 34b that was too big in the cup for me or a 36a that just ended up being too big all over. My boyfriends mum used to own a lingerie shop so she fitted me at 6 weeks as a 32F or if absolutely necessary get the sister size of a 34e. I had 450cc high profile overs And went from an a/b to a f/e. They did get bigger for me as they healed so I’m sure yours will too x

Could try some baby oil. I used it after I’d waxed my eyebrows to get the excess wax off and worked quite well. Or get some of the after wax lotion they use in salons. Removes sticky bits quite well x

Hiya, my stats are similar to you, I’m 5ft10 and 10.5 stone, I had 450cc HP Overs and went from a small B to an F. I’m sure you will achieve at least a DD

Usually 4.
A 1 week, 2 week and 6 week, then see the surgeon at 12 weeks x

Yeah it was the biggest he offered me, I didn’t even think to ask him for bigger because I knew that he knew best. I’m so happy they I went with 450s. I occasionally think that if I’d gone for 400s instead would they look more natural still, but if i had I’d have gotten major boob greed!

Hi Ashley, I had Dr Traynor for my surgery in October and I had 450cc HP Overs. I’m so pleased with the results and went from a large 34A /32B and I now measure 34E / 32F
Feel free to have a look at the photos on my profile x

Hi, as Courtny said I wouldn’t get too caught up in the cup sizes. I had 450cc which would be roughly 3 cup sizes going from the 125-150cc, however after being measured I’ve gone up byour 4/5 cup sizes so really does depend on your body to begin with. Have you tried doing the rice sizers? Put about 300g rice in tights and tie the ends off and pop them in a sports bra so you get some sort of idea of what you could look like after the surgery.

I had 450cc HP Overs in October with Dr Traynor. Feel free to have a look at the photos on my profile x

Hi Lorna, when I met Dr Traynor he decided that I was going to have Round High Profile Overs as this would give me the best result and I had the option of 400cc, 425cc and 450cc, I only tried on 450cc and 425cc. Most people say to go with the biggest that you are offered.
Not sure how Dr F is in her consultations as I never met her. She may say that a bigger implant or a different profile would suit you better than what you are liking. X

I’m sure after 2 weeks you’d be fine for nails but might want to take slightly longer for waxing due to the force and pressure needed ect, see how you get on anyway x

Chelsea, I’m assuming that he means for an uplift or bigger implants after kids because most peoples sag or drop from breast feeding ect!

Demi, they only look a bit fake when I pull my arms like backwards behind myself as if I’m trying to make my elbows touch, they are quite squishy now and do move a fair bit but I imagine that they’ll still get softer
Xx

I used this website to get a rough idea. http://www.boobydoo.co.uk/bra-size-calculator
It put me as a 34F and when I was measured professionally I came out at a 32F so was really close for me. Make sure that you still get measured professionally, the result should give you a rough idea anyway X

I felt that mine were huge when I had mine done but after the puffiness went down the size feels much better, it’s just like the Nipples are swollen also x

I downloaded an app called reduce photo size on my Samsung, probably a similar name on apple and it tells you how many kb your photo is so can get it under the 51kb easy

Hi Jess, I had Dr Traynor too and he offered me 400,425 and 450 as I told him I wanted to get to a DD from a small 34B. I’m a size 10 but Ive got a wide rib cage and big shoulders and 5ft 10. He said that I shouldn’t have any smaller because there wouldn’t be any point giving me ‘small’ implants (for my size). I’m 9 weeks post op and wearing 32F /34E bras.
It really does depend on what your stats and shape is like now as to what size you will achieve.
My thoughts whilst I was recovering was the cup size doesn’t matter to me because if I ended up as a C or whatever it was still better than what I had before so keep to keep an open mind through the whole process, it seems like you have the same thoughts that I did before, now I’m much more confident in dresses and overall
There was a “pop quiz” type post on here that I saw and at the end of the post the last question was what advice would you give to future patients and almost everyone said go for the biggest size they offer. I suppose that way you can’t feel like you regret not going big enough
X

1 week, 2 weeks, 6 weeks and then 12 weeks you see the surgeon. If there were any issues I’d imagine that you’d need to go more often

Hi Greta, I had 450cc and at about week 2 I did a measurement online and came out at a 34D, and now 8 weeks post op I’m actually wearing 32F / 34E so mine have settled down larger than before. Many of the girls who had overs have said that they do go bigger as they settle

Hi Chelsea, I had 450cc about 8 weeks ago, feel free to take a look on my profile for photos, I started off smaller than you though X

Hi NickI, I had 450cc HP implants with Dr Traynor 7 weeks ago, I used to wear 34B (ish) and I now measure 32F!
I didn’t at any point wish that I’d gone bigger with the implants and I’m glad I didn’t because it’s a pain trying to get bras that size so I’m having to buy 34Es.
My stats aren’t too far off of yours, feel free to look at my photos on my profile.

This bra is 34E – not quite the right fit, need a 32F

Hi Hollie, I had 450 HP Overs from a small B and I’m 6 weeks post op and measuring 34F. Feel free to have a look at my photos on my profile x

I took about 10 days off work and I think it was just right for me, everyone at work knew what was going on so knew I had to be on light duties, I’m an assistant at Toni and Guy so usually involves blow drying putting deliveries away and cleaning a lot. It hurt a bit to pump shampoos for the first few days back.
The first 3/4 days I felt really achey and lethargic, on day 2 I went to have my nails done and hair washed and very nearly fell asleep on the nail tech and then again at the back wash! The GA totally wipes you out and you’ll probably spend the majority of the first few days asleep wherever you fall. It’s ideal to get some icepacks, one for each side, keep them on for as long as you can as often as you can.
The things I found most difficult were sitting up by myself, putting my coat on, flushing the toilets with a proper handle (not button ones) and pumping hand soap / shampoos. I couldn’t open the car doors either way, when you’re in the hospital make sure that someone is there with you to open doors when you go to the toilet after your op ect as they are so heavy! My boyfriend had gone to the car when I needed the toilet so I somehow managed to open the door by using my full weight!
By day 4/5, apart from falling asleep a lot my pain was much better, I could sit up by myself and roll over enough to tuck my pillows under my bum in the night.
The cocodamol made me feel sick from day 2 so stopped taking it, paracetamol made me feel sick as well so I switched to ibuprofen and felt fine then, if I woke up in the night I’d take painkillers but I didn’t set any alarms to take them purposefully through the night.

Happy to answer any other questions too 🙂

Hi Tilly, I was slightly tubular and had 450cc HO Overs with Dr Traynor at Preston 5 weeks ago. I was a small 34B (ish) before. Feel free to have a look at my photos, I think they are accessible to members.
I’m bigger than you over all, I’m 5’10” and a size 10 and 10.5 stone

Hi Kelsey,
I had 450cc HP Overs on October 12th with Dr Traynor and started at a Small 34 B / Large A. Not been measured properly yet but I tried on a 36D bra at 2 weeks PO and it was way too small!!
I’ll try and attach a before and after (3wpo) photo

I think the signature bra is 4/5 and that’s most popular, then the ultimate bra is 5/5 which is a bit longer so supposed to be more comfortable. I’ve got one of each and sometimes one feels more comfortable to wear than the other depending on the day and one is clay and the other black so can wear different clothes with them.
Just get your regular band size that you normally wear as the cups are expandable so will fit you ore and post op xx

I had 450cc HP Overs 3 weeks ago with Dr Traynor

I applied stretch mark cream from about day 3 just avoiding the areas where the plasters are. My boyfriend and I went about a week, people vary with how they are feeling, might be worth a try but tell him he has to do everything and not go near them :’)

I had a few white ones pre Op and they haven’t changed or gotten any more as of yet but I’m only 3 weeks post op

Sounds as if they’re going to end up bigger then! Have you done a measurement so far or have you not been tempted yet? X

Brilliant thanks, might see how it feels tonight then and pillow pad to hell!! X

My nurse asked me on my preop appointment and then dr Traynor also confirmed the size on my op day

Photos didn’t want to attach for some reason

I’m exactly the same! So pleased with mineveryone too!! How are you healing?

I had Overs and had 10 days off work after surgery. I’m an assistant at Toni and Guy so lots of blowdrying, shampooing, cleaning and some lifting. I was worried that I’d be going back too soon but had no problems x

When I took my steri strips off there wasn’t any pulling or pain or anything at all, just do it slowly and you’ll be ok, I was nervous to take them off too!

Also, I’m 5ft 10 and a broad size 10 in tops, sometimes have to get a size 12 because of my shoulders!

Hi Catherine, I went from a large 34A / small B and asked for DDs, I had 450cc HP Overs with Dr Traynor 13 days ago, had a rough measure of myself last week and the Internet guessed a 36DD at that time, still got to wait for them to drop and fluff but they’ve started to settle down a bit now x

I had 450cc, high profile Overs x

Hi Kelly, I had 450 HP overs with dr Traynor a week last Wednesday and I’m so pleased with mine, it doesn’t look so much different to me in regular tshirts but I can really tell the difference. I was worried that I’d feel like I looked like Pamela Anderson because they’d look absolutely gigantic but they are a lovely size for me and I don’t think we started at a much different size.
I’m sure that you will start to love them!
They also look completely different without the Macom on xx

They’ve told me to wait another week for a shower, although Im healing perfectly and have no problems?

Hi Stacey, they called me at 10am as I was getting in the car to leave to tell me the nurse was ill and would have to rearrange, I told them there was no way I wasn’t being seen today because we’d already paid for a hire car and we live 70 miles away from the clinic!
I ended up seeing a Vaser nurse instead.
No my stitches feel ok, my dressings had almost completely peeled off yesterday so I had to change them.
When I was there today and had the small plasters underneath taken off I was a bit terrified that it would have pulled because of the dry blood on them but it was only the sticky annoying parts that I felt!

Have you had icepacks on them at all?

Been to see the nurse today as I’m 1 week PO, she said I am healing very well and she was surprised about the lack of bruising.
My insicions are looking super neat (photos are before they were cleaned) and are probably about 3cm long.
Still not allowed to shower unfortunately :'(
Attached are photos from today

I wouldn’t worry about not having the admission time yet, some girls don’t get theirs until 2-3 days before, although I had mine 9 days before my op x

They said 3 days to me. I took them off after a few hours of being home, but I’m usually up every 20 minutes to use the toilet anyways so wasn’t just sat around

I had shellac on my toes still when I had my op, but the stockings covered them anyway, I didn’t have anything on my hands at all

Ah that’s alright then! I wasn’t too worried because my 1st check up is on Wednesday and it’s only been on and off, i did think it could be something to do with the muscle,thanks for your help 🙂
