450cc under muscle & still disappointed :(

Hi Guys,

I have sat for hours on end reading through these posts and hoping for some sort of a miracle.

I was roughly a 34b, size 10, and had 450cc unders HP – operation completed at Preston on the 4th November 2020.

I understand that many people say ‘trust the process, trust the processsssss’ – but I am just really saddened by the results atm. Although i appreciate they are a fair size and are an actual handful (lol), they just dont look how i want them to; e.g I NEVER had a cleavage and always wished for one. Getting this op i thought yes great – Cleavage pending and no push up bra’s required to make that happen. However this is not the case :(. Coupled with this, I just dont feel like they are as ‘full’ as they should be.

I know everyone says dont compare your recovery to others but it is just a natural thing you do. You have an image in your head of what you want them to look like and you compare to other people with similar stats and sizes and only dream to have the same outcome.

I’m over 8 weeks PO now and i know they have dropped somewhat but they just dont seem to be looking the same as others. Am i doing something wrong? .. i have followed every piece of advice ive been given from the MYA nurses and my surgeon but still feel like they are not looking as they should.

Ive even considered wearing my breast band across the actual breasts themselves in the hope it will pull them closer together.

Photo 1 is 2 days PO, photo 2 is 1 month PO, photo 3 is 7 weeks PO, photo 4 is 8 weeks PO

Is anyone else in the same position?

Any advice would honestly be so appreciated.

Many thanks x x

Sorry I dont know why the photos havent uploaded … will try again

They look absolutely fantastic to me!

They do say that they can’t guarantee the size or cleavage (well thats what my surgeon told me)

I think sometimes looking at other peoples boobs can make you start doubting your own and plays on your mind but I honestly wouldn’t worry about yours as when i seen these I thought they looked perfect girl x

I think they look fabulous! I’m 4 months post op now and love them more and more each day, I hated mine at first! I honestly think it takes a good few months for them to properly settle in and feel like a real part of you xx

Thanks ever so much D!

I think I am honestly just really disheartened by the lack of fullness in them. Like atm i feel they dont look natural and just look like 2 big balloons stuck on my body as opposed to having that natural drop and then fullness.

I know obviously they do say you have to be patient and drop & fluff happens so differently for so many people but I think maybe I just expected more.

Did you find yours continually changed? X

Ahhh thank you Laura!

What did you hate about them initially? & when did you start to see them changing?

I dont know if im just being blinded by them but aside from maybe the first photo, I dont actually think they look like they have changed even though I am so close to being 2 months post op.

Really hope I begin to love them like you do yours.

Honestly im so happy to hear of people loving theirs x x

I’ve booked my surgery today ! I think you look fantastic but if your unhappy no ones positive comments changes that ! Have you been able to speak to the surgeon or discuss your concerns ? Xx

Oh that is great news! I am beyond excited for you Jessica!! Wishing you all the luck in the world, you will absolutely breeze through it, honestly.

I have run it by both my nurse and my surgeon; to which they tell me to book an appointment 3 months PO and they will review it with me. I dont know if maybe I am just being impatient and having that infamous boob greed but either way I am somewhat dissatisfied and I really wish I wasnt x x

I know how you feel, I had 450cc thought it would be massive. already want 700cc revision x

I’m terrified at the moment I’m 29 I’ve had both my kids and have literally no boobs I’ve spent my 20’s hiding my chest not wearing bikinis and I think my self esteem has suffered massively ! I had my kids young and I’m a science teacher now so I’m hoping it all goes smoothly to not impact on my kids or work ! I have no idea what size to even go fo at the moment so may choices !

Hopefully in 3 months you’ll feel better it’s such a big issue for women my family doesn’t understand but I have supportive friends and my husband is fab xx

Jessica, i know exactly how you feel. I am in a slightly different position as I dont have kids however I completely feel you when you say you have been hiding your chest. It knocks your confidence SO much and its just awful when you’re shopping and would love to buy the low cut top/dress but just know you cant! I just remember how much I used to dread lingerie/bikini shopping & I thought to myself – I just cannot keep going through this, i need to do something about it!

I dont know what you wish to achieve looks/size wise. However now i can look back and say this, I would definitely say go for the biggest CC they recommend and possibly push for higher if possible. Just do so so sooo much research on the socials and get a feel for exactly what you want. You cant go wrong then.

As far as work goes – maybe you could arrange for the operation to coincidence with the school holidays? i personally found a week off was more than sufficient. If anything id of happily gone back after about 3 days! I genuinely felt the recovery was 100x better than I thought it would be. Admittedly you do feel very achy in the sense of your muscles feeling like you have done an intense work out for 24 hours straight, but otherwise as far as ‘pain’ goes, it thought it was minimal.

Thank you, i really hope i start to fall in love with them 😩xx

Hi Isabelle,

I am really so very surprised that you say this cause I am sure I have seen your photos on other forum topics and yours look AMAZINGGGG and look far far better than mine.

What is it you’re disappointed with? Is it literally the size? Xx

I think they look amazing!!

Ahhh thank you! yeah 🙁 I thought they would be bigger, I’ve seen girls with smaller cc which look bigger than mine ! but I suppose its everyones body type too as I’m not petite so wont look huge on me 🙁 I’d definitely love a good 700cc. for the record yours look amazing xx

Thanks ever so much Lisa!

I wish I thought the same as you guys! Haha xx

Isabelle, I feel the same! Similar and even smaller CC look much bigger than mine. I dont even understand why either as they were similar stats to me prior to the procedure 😩.

I just dont understand it, but hoping and praying for some sort of major change in month 3 – although Im not holding my breath whatsoever.

Honestly though, yours do look absolutely fab! And i do remember thinking, gosh i wish mine looked like Isabelles! Xx

Oh bless you, I’m exactly 3 months post op and they havent changed much at all 🙁 as for fluff and drop I think that happened a while ago,, mine are textured so cant really see any difference when that happens but if they stay the way they are now I’ll definitely be going for another op ! it’s strange because my boyfriend says they’re huge while I think I was better off before !

I know we get used to them but we know our bodies dont we and we know what it is we wanted to achieve!!!! Honestly I saw a girl on here with 400 and they looked huge, like dream goals. mine aren’t like that 😭 I’ll try and find a pic of her they were amazing, not what I ended up with 🙁 xx

I hope she doesnt mind because these are my absolute dream boobs but this girl had 400cc and look at them!!!!!!!! trying to tell myself she has a completely different frame to me but I cant help wondering why they look so good 😭😭

mine 😤

Oh my good god Isabelle, i think yours look AMAZING and are exactly how i wished mine looked 😥!!!

But i get it, no matter how much me or others could tell you how good they look, if you’re not happy, you’re just not happy & its such a shame.

That other girls look pretty damn good! God if i had either yours or hers i would be completely over the moon.

I am considering going for op nr 2. Although god only knows when that will be now as I doubt ill even get my 3 month PO which is what my surgeon told me to wait for.

Finngers crossed for the both of us hun! Xx

Isabelle yours look better than the first pic! I know we all have our preferences but honestly I prefer yours. You’ve made me more confident to get a bigger size (going for 425/450 at 5ft 1 and 9 stone) 😊

Sometimes I honestly think he put smaller in mine and just said i had 450cc cos i asked for 500 and he said no 😭 Shauna yours do look fab ! I totally get it though, I expected a massive set,, wanted it for years and have been left feeling like I want more!

Thank you for your kind words,, I’ll always tell people to go as big as they can !! I know its each person’s preference but I wouldnt bother getting anything under 400cc. then again its massive on some people ! so confusing !!!! xxx
