Any girls had a Re-op advice needed!!

I’ve been thinking about this ever since I had my breasts done 3 months ago… Ive been a little disappointed with them and I guess I have my good days and bad days, on a good day I will put on a padded push up bra and think they look ok and to what I want them to be like and I should learn to love them and on a bad day I will stand infront of a mirror in a changing room trying on clothes feeling really disappointed with them as they look crap without a bra! … But the question is, is it worth paying out to have them redone if I don’t like them? Are there more risks associated second time round? Has anyone found recovery more difficult or experienced problems compared to the first time they had them done? And how long did you wait before having them redone? I’ve had 375cc and really want to have them changed to 525cc to take them up a whole cup size… Has anyone increased there’s to a similar size? I was due to see my surgeon next Monday for my check up but cancelled it as I am so confused on what to say or do… As I don’t want to sound ungreatful to him as he did a good job and they have healed well but Its Just not the result or projection I wanted )-: and what if I’m told even if I do pay to have them changed he will not do them to the size I want… Ahh so many questions

Lisa yours look fab! I had exactly same size as you and same surgeon.
At the mo I am on a downer too
Was there a reason you couldn’t go any bigger than 375cc first time round?
I know from feeling my boobs now if I had Gone any bigger there would have been major rippling and I would have been so upset. Have you viewed your pre op post op photos that may did. Have a look at those and it will make you realise how fab your boobs are now x

Hi @amy03 I didn’t even question going bigger than what was offered at the time, all I said was that I wanted to be a full d-dd and thats what I’ve got and even been measured as an f cup but they deff don’t look like size and sitting in certain positions bra has a big gap!! i feel they look soo small on my frame as I’m quite tall… I’ve seen the same size implants I have on a girl on here who is 5ft2 and a size 6 and they look great on her but I feel on my frame they look small… If I could turn back time I wish i would of asked for bigger and how big I could go to if I wanted not that I would want 800cc but I think around 500 would of been a lot better. Sorry you feel a little down too, but for a different reason… Was 375 the max Mr k offered you? X

Hun I had unders on 23/1 and I swear this week my boobs are bigger again this week so I’m well over 3 months now. I was told 6-12 months for the full result as muscles relax etc. I would go and see him and tell him how u feel x

Thanks @fionajsd I’ve rebooked my appointment to see him on the 2nd June… Gives me a bit more time to think about what I want to say or do. My breasts have gone really soft and squidgy now and not much change at all over the past 4 weeks but to me they are deff not getting any bigger, if any thing they haven’t dropped and fluffed, they have dropped and shrunk lol!

Hey hun, sorry you are feeling this way. It is a slow, agonising process waiting for them to change, especially if you’ve had unders. I felt so down about mine at around 6-8 weeks post-op that I didn’t get measured until I was about 12 weeks post-op. The only thing that kept me going was knowing that I now, I at least had some boobs, compared to when I didn’t have any at all (was a tiny 32A cup pre-op, if that)

They do take a long time to get to where you want them to be but I assure you, they will. I started to really love them at the 12 week mark. Am now almost 16 weeks post-op, and in the past couple of days, I’ve noticed they’ve changed a bit more and gotten a little bigger. Like Fiona said, 6-12 months is how long you should wait, to judge how you really feel about them. I’d suggest wait at least a year. If you still feel this way, then discuss your options with your surgeon. I think they look great in your avatar and you’ve got cleavage. We are our own worst critics hun. Give it at least a year.

Hope this was helpful. Good luck and let us know how you get on when you have your consult with the surgeon. xxx

Hya. Am 16 days po. My 3rd boob job. N ave had no pain at all. Much happyer goin bigger. But it can take a long time for them to soften ect. A wud wait bit longer x

Thanks for all the advice, I guess I will have to wait and see what my surgeon says in a couple of weeks… My closest friend thinks I’m crazy and any bigger would make me look top heavy and is worried I’ve become over obsessed with them and comparing them to other girls who have had bigger implants but I can’t help how I feel /-:

This may sound really crazy but I almost wish my recovery was really horrible and painful and something Id never want to go through again which would deter me… But it was a breeze which makes the thought of me having them redone less scary as I know what to expect unless having them redone is a totally different experience lol!

Hope you don’t mind the adds Fiona, sharks and @clairelk

@lisa247 I have my first BA in 2009 abroad in Prague, had 220cc teardrop implants, wanted to go bigger, he told me to come back after children, that wasn’t going to happen, I left it 6 years and decided it’s time to try and push for bigger (without having had children). I’m getting married next year so for me that prompted second BA. I had TWO consultations with two different surgeons, didn’t feel like I trusted the first, second was amazing and really positive and nice.
In the end I went with 400cc UHP (biggest surgeon offered me).
I had typical hating boobs phase after surgery, wished I’d gone bigger STILL. But I’m warming to them. For me I was happy with second BA, particularly because surgeon came in after surgery and told me that one implant had turned and another was capsular!! So for me surgery was a positive and worth the money as I had issues with first BA implants. To be fair they were still achey (particularly my left breast) even 6 years PO.
BUT I still wish I’d gone bigger! I didn’t even push for bigger and wish I had now, but I’m growing to love them and I’m only 3 weeks PO so they are still changing and calming down.
What you need to ask yourself is if you’ll always be chasing bigger. Every girl I’ve spoken to on here seem to go through a phase of not being happy and I definitely did my first week and a half after surgery!
I hope you choose what is best for you and what will make you happy 🙂 xx

Hi hun id definitely give it time before u make a decision
I had my first ba on in 2007 300cc then 8 weeks ago had my 2nd ba 550cc. Even after the 550 I had major boob greed, I wasn’t in love with them at all to start with but patience is definetly the key to see what they look like. Mine have changed so much and I’m a lot happier with them now. It’s horrible when ur not happy though and it’s all u can think about. Lookin at pics on here and comparing urself to others can help but it can also make things worse.xx
