    Hi Samantha, I had my BA yesterday and it is complelty fine. They literally let me hold a mask to my face. Which had oxygen in at first and then they put the general anaesthetic into the line in your arm and they asked me to take a big deep breath and before you know it your getting woken up with new boobies. Nothing to worry about at all, I think it’s a nice experience going under if I’m honest haha xx

    thanks for replying!!

    never had to have any kind of op before so just the thought of not being in control of going to sleep scares the hell out of me!! did u feel like you had been asleep a while or just a nap? was u in theatre long? how is the pain? what size did u go? sorry for all the questions!!
    congrats on ur new boobs!!

    No worries!
    Well it feels like you’ve been in and out in a minute but think it’s lasts just over an hour or something. They give you loads of pain relief while your asleep so you are a bit groggy and spaced out when you come round. Pain is bareable, just feels heavy and a lot of pressure at the minute. I had 430cc ultra high profile partials, that was from a 32A xx

    Iv been under a few times now, (not all cosmetic though) and i may be alone here but i quite like the feeling of being put to sleep. And its like you’ve only been asleep a second and then you’re waking up again! And when you come round its just like feeling tired. Once you’ve done it you wont know what all the worry was about xxxx and i was in op for about an hour .. And there was no lain when i woke up! Sorry i know you didnt ask me ha i was expecting like excruciating pain aswell! Xxx

    Hi Samantha gosh I know how you feel and I’ve never had an op before neither so I was the same! The only thing that terrified me besides being cut was having no control over staying awake and that light headed feeling knowing you’re drifting and nothing you can do about it lol but honestly it only lasts around an hour and when you wake up…it doesn’t even feel like that long ago. The anaesthetist I had was good he distracted me and kept my mind off of it but also kept informing of what he was doing. He popped the oxygen mask on and took a deep breathe and I saw him putting the anaesthetic into my arm and I just started to see double and konked out. Last thing I remember before konking out I just kept telling myself to relax And told the anaesthetist man I’m seeing double lol and he said don’t worry relax you’ll be going to sleep let yourself relax or something. Then I woke up asking when I’m going to have my op and the nurse told me I’ve had it lol. Felt quite drowsy and sleepy after I kept falling asleep lol.

    I cant remember feeling like that. I was expecting the worse though. So maybe go in expecting hell and you’ll be pleasantly surprised lol. I live about an hour away from the Preston hospital. My wonderful mum took me and waited and drove me back the same day. The pillow came in handy for the seatbelt ! Xx

    When I had the ga they said they were putting it in and It felt like I had pins and needles in my left arm and then I woke up about 2 hours later. Didn’t feel a thing woke up very confused and apparently I was asking where I was etc and I felt really dizzy after woods. I was really nervous having the ga but I was absolutely fine there’s nothing to worry about

    hiya! i was SO terrified of being put to sleep. i hate the idea of anesthetic and needles etc so i was a nightmare! they let me use gas before they put the canula in me to go to sleep which saved me so much anxiety.. with that it’s just a gas mask over your face, you breathe normally, it makes you feel a bit dizzy and lightheaded then bam.. you wake up and it’s all done 🙂
    pain wise i never had any pain.. just discomfort and tightness similar to if i’d overdone it at the gym across my chest and arms when i moved. sitting still was completely comfortable to me and by day 5 i was up and about at uni again. i know everyone is different, but i was worrying and expecting the absolute worst, and (touch wood as i’m only 2 weeks PO) – everything went great! if you have any other questions feel free to message me, because i was so scared about being put to sleep! xx

    Hey hun, I just had it put through the cannula, they gave me something to calm me down first as I’ve suffered from anxiety in the past… I didn’t feel anything in my arm I was out of it straight away.. When I woke up I just remmeber asking where the food was at and staring at my boobs haha, i was pretty much straight back to normal after the ga but it does vary from person to person. Everyone at the clinic was amazing as well really put your mind at rest on the day! 🙂 xx
