Hey ladies. Ok so I’ve been researching ba for a good few years now and have talked it thro with the hubby and have decided that it’s time to have my boobs sorted. I have one breast a cup and one a b cup and it’s doing nothing to help my intimacy with the hubby. I can count on one hand how many times he’s seen me topless in the last 6 years – not good. I’ve looked at lots of company’s that do this procedure and up to now this is the first site I’ve seen where “real women” can talk about there experience which is fantastic. I’m currently a size 14-16 losing weight to be a 12-14 and am 5ft 2 so obviously don’t want boobs to look out of place and too fake.
So I would like to be a d-dd cup ish so was wondering if you could post and tell me your experiences plz. Eg. Size before size after ba. Cc size implants you had to achieve this look and under or overs. An finally if you are happy with your out come or not. Plz also post if you’ve had a bad experience too as all info helps. And any advice you could give would be most appreciated. Thanks ladies xxx
Sorry forgot to add I live in Doncaster xx
I wrote a story hold on til I copy paste it since its SOOOOOOOOOO longggg
A girls used this for her university dissertation:
MYA Experience
Had surgery on the 25th January 2011
Breast Augmentation initially a 34AA (completely flat chested) now around a 34E
BA cost: £3350 470cc MLP CUI implants. Was supposed to get it done in June but managed to get it moved forward to January 25th 2011! Was off for 2 weeks but resumed most normal activities after 1 week.
Friends and Family’s Reaction:
My friends and family’s reactions were brilliant they were all really nice and my dad even loaned me half the money so I could get it done sooner!
My bf bought me La Senza vouchers for my Valentine’s day pressie! So I have £100 to buy new bras with!!! My friends were always nice about it and one of them even came with me to 2 of my consultations with MYA.
Most of my aunts and uncles were all cool about it, so was my Gran.
Parents were really good about it, both supportive but just worried in-case anything went wrong.
EVERYONE knew I wasn’t having it done for the wrong reasons such as vanity, but more for my own self-confidence.
My friends keep wanting to touch them lol. I really hated wearing a bikini on holidays because I had NO boobs, if you look in my album at my hospital BEFORE picture you can see how small I was, only thing I liked about them were my nipples size/shape!
I’m still loving them and am wearing normal bras and managing to wear them all day! Exercising again too!
Why I did it:
I did it because I had NOTHING I hated wearing bikinis, wouldn’t go swimming to the local swimming pools because of how flat my swimming costume made me and I wanted to be more confident. I also think when people in school used to tease me about them calling me “pancakes” and “tiny tits” etc. this would have impacted on my decision….
Theres a lot of media which criticise celebrities about having plastic surgery and being a bad influence on young people but I can safely say I did NOT have surgery because of ANY direct celebrity influences. Maybe the people (both male and female) who put me down about my lack of “boobage” were influenced by the way celebrities look and this had a knock-on effect where they thought they could criticise ME about having less-than-perfect-sized boobs…? I don’t know…..just a theory lol. I certainly didn’t look at celebrities and think I had to change although looking at celebrities who had BA’s helped me choose what look I certainly DIDN’T want and a few who had nice natural-looking “fake” boobs that helped me choose what I DID want to look like afterwards. Maybe my story will make people think twice about what kind of name-calling they go around subjecting people to.
A little “Diary” of events:
3/4 months ago:
Went for my surgery consultation today and have chosen 470cc low profile overs (although they’re CALLED ‘low’ they are actually like moderate….)
It was great, he was so nice and my friend came with me and he was quite happy to banter with us and chat away and seemed like he REALLY cared =] I had said I wanted the smaller profile implants because I didn’t think id suit the high profiles, and it ended up I was right! lol because I’m quite broad I was able to go up to 470cc ‘low’ (moderate) profiles and he even said to me that it would be just about impossible to fit-in larger-based high profile implants (I wanted a larger base! so that suited me fine!)
He also measured me and supposedly according to something another like surgeon did or something I have the ‘perfect’ measurements when it comes to breasts when it comes to how far the nipples are from the armpit, breast crease etc. so that was great. He’s also VERY happy to take me as a day-case which is good
Extremely happy with him and although I’m not having my surgery until June, AND HES GOING AWAY IN JUNE FOR 4 WEEKS! but I don’t mind, he said he was leaving to go to like china or something for 4 weeks on like the 10th of June but I was wanting my BA done at the start of June anyways and if anything DOES worry me or goes wrong his collegue Andy Hart would be there to look after me as they both cover for each other when they go on holidays :]
SOOOOO! Basically all-in-all COMPLETELY SATISFIED
2 months ago:
I got it brought forward to JANUARY! WOOP!
1 month ago:
Heyy! Got to Ross Hall hospital in Glasgow at 9.30am, half an hour early, receptionist’s face light up when she saw me come in lol! she was lovely, and I got taken to my room almost straight after arriving EVEN though I was early. My mum and dad were able to stay with me too, and the place was allot like a nice hotel and cleaners EVERYWHERE CLEANING EVERYWHERE! But they ALL stop cleaning like your the queen on something to let you by lol! The lady who took me to my room was lovely. Not long after a nurse came to take my blood pressure and heartbeat and stuff. I was seen by another 2 nurses or so, they were both nice too. Had to give a URINE sample….ewwww…..but that was fine, they give you like a very thick paper bedpan on your toilet seat to do it in, and you press your nurse call button for them to take it away.
I was seen by Ben Chew my surgeon at around 11.30am and he told me I wouldn’t be going in at 12noon because someone else was running late and that I would be taken out at 1pm-ish. When he came in I was ‘slagging’ him because he had they croc shoes on with “Neil’s” written on them LOL! I was like “aww aye, should I hide my purse in case you bump (Scottish slang for steal) that too?” LOL He said they were not the right shoes but he was sure ‘Neil’ had taken his lol. He drew all over me but was VERY precise and proper and double checked everything and noticed my BOOB are perfectly symmetrical but my actual TORSO isn’t! lol so my ribs and back are a bit skewed but only by like 1cm lol.
He left me then 1pm came, and no-one came, BUT at 1.06pm a man and a woman came in my room with a bed and wheeled me downstairs near to where the theatre was. They took me down VERY quickly. I was in my bed next to another guy and another woman at the other side of him, I think they had already had surgery coz they were well and truly conked-out.
Then they wheeled me to the room JUST outside the Theatre room, here I said “I’m shit scared of needles by the way” but when they put the needle in they chatted away to me about stuff and tbh the needle was really quite sore! but only for like 5 seconds and I was probably all tensed up because of my fear of needles lol!
I remember talking to them a little for like 5 minutes and feeling like I had a full bottle of Peach Schnapps again……then I must have conked-out….
I woke up in that room next to theatre where I saw the other conked-out people before.
I kept trying to sit up but the nurses wouldn’t let me, kept telling me to “lie back, lie back, lie back” lol they were very tolerant though, I remember waving to people LOL but can’t remember who…..I think one of them was another conked-out lady who also waved back to me lol. They took me back to my room not long after and on the way up I saw my mum waiting on me in the corridor lol and I said “Whit you doing here?” lol I hadn’t realised how late it was, she was supposed to be back around 3ish coz I was meant to be out at like 2.45pm but I didn’t come out until around 4.30pm. It wasn’t bad, I kept trying to sleep the anaesthetic off but people KEPT coming in to check my blood pressure like every 40 minutes or so, was a pain in the BUM! But had to be done….lol. Then I wanted to try eating my food. I was in a different room to before because my surgery ran on so long and rather than getting a boring bit of toast that I was SUPPOSED to get I ended up with a nice 3 course meal Chose Heinz tomato soup, which wasn’t on the menu but they said they could do it for me if I wanted, cheesy cauliflower and broccoli with potatoes and carrots and some lemon sorbet. Was all very good I HAD to stay until 8.30pm before they’d let me go because Id only woken up at 4.30, they have to keep you in for 4 hours after the anaesthetic starts to wear off.
I kept asking when I could go home and my mum sat with me for the 4 hours I had to wait, her and my dad had gone out for some food and went to Silverburn while I was in hospital and had that fish-eating-your-dead-skin-on-your-feet SPA TREATMENT!!! JEALOUS!!! But they bought me some sweets and food when they were out because I wasn’t the biggest fan of toast and flora and that’s all I thought I was getting, but when I ended up with a 3 course meal so my mum ate the food she got me lol! I was able to go to the toilet myself which was good and was able to get myself dressed for leaving although putting pants or trousers on is a bit risky!!! lol I have to hold onto a wall and reach down to my feet rather than bend over to do it lol.
After a while the tiniest nurse you ever seen came and saw me for my final blood pressure and stuff and took me in a chair to the front door to be picked up by my mum. I walked down fine and the car journey home was fine apart from the fact I just wanted to SLEEP!
When I got home: I have 1 HUGE pillow, 4 others and then my V-shaped pillow, the only way I could sleep was to sleep propped-up AND tilted to one side a bit whilst cuddling two more pillows lol. I woke up about every 2-3 hours and I made sure I swapped the side I was tilted to just so I don’t end up with lop-sided boobs lol!
Everything else is ok though, I can eat, pour a drink and drink on my own without a straw or anything can put zippy tops on but my mum had to help me put my black strappy top on because I couldn’t get it over my head but can pull it down myself.
Iv had some more painkillers and antibiotics this morning, did it myself, and been to the toilet, myself lol just not eaten yet….and only JUST realised while writing THIS that I REALLY SHOULD have eaten b4 my pills :S WOOPS!
I’m sitting in the biggest bra I have which is my 36DD (which is the same as like a 34EE) I’m hoping I’ll end up being a 34E after a couple of months, what do you guys think I’ll be? I think they’ll stretch and get a LITTLE bigger or stretch and stay the same size, I doubt they’ll end-up smaller…..I do realise they’ll probably go through a process of swelling going down so getting smaller, then settling so maybe a tiny bit bigger? then fluff a little so get a LITTLE bigger again?
I hope I’m a 34E!!!!
All in all I COULD NOT fault Ross Hall they were great, they even do their own BA’s for a package price of £4100 if you were to go with them and not MYA they’re part of the BMI group. My surgery was only £3350 though because of a voucher I had and day-case was cheaper….They were nearly gonna keep me in overnight….and I was like NO!! When can I go?!?!?!?!? lol MY bed is soooo much comfier and its quieter here too and no-one to check your blood pressure every hour during the night lol!
EVERYONE knew I wasn’t having it done for the wrong reasons such as vanity, but more for my own self-confidence.
Im a year post op now btw so this is a little dated….where it says like 1 month ago and 3/4 months ago is more like 11 months ago and 8/9 months ago now
Iv jus posted my story on here hun it’s titled finally my story 7th jan with pics xx
hi mrswilla1981, welcome to the site, I live down in Essex and yes really my name is Sharon – no laughing! anyway I too have researched for many years, same as you have finally plucked up courage and hubby says whatever makes you happy- teenagers dying of embarrassment. Am 36small b when I lose weight a horrid a, 5’3″ and 10 1/2 stone. Surgeon has suggested 460/525 over muscle and after reading girls comments am plumping for 525 although was sure I was going for 460! initial consultation they just talk about price, hospitals local to you,surgeons available and date for you to meet them and you get to see product, you can arrange to see as many surgeons as you like in your area, some people wait till they find one they bond with, but I was keen to get the job done asap, and am in on 24 Jan, have you done the rice test? with that I got to DD, so hope they will be similar. Good luck with your choice, have added you if you want to see sad before pics, will upload afters when done. This site is amazing I am on it every day and all have been very supportive and there have been a few negatives so you can see that sometimes hiccups happen. ‘boobie bible’ is a must and one that will match you up for anyone having surgery at same time/place as you. there is also a healing diary, which I will bump up to the top for you so you can see exactly how they change after a few months. x
Hi hun, i had my op Wednesday with Mr Gary Traynor through the Manchester clinic. Ive Wanted a BA since I was younger after 2 kids finally decided to go through with it! I started my booby journey September. I researched surgeons rather than company’s and came across my Surgeon who works for MYA, I spoke to girls who had had their BA with him and saw lots of before and after pics. I saw 2 surgeons both fantastic but decided to go with Mr Traynor. I wanted the natural look and perfect scars both of which he is recommended for!
I was recommended 4 sizes and with help from my surgeon decided on 385cc I was a 34C pre op and wanted to look a full DD after! I am soooo happy with the results so far! The op only took 55 mins from me being put to sleep to waking back up! Got myself in such a state days before worrying about it all but there was no need at all everything went smoothly and was in and out of hospital in 6 hours.
In regards to the company I think there a few things that could be improved, maybe a bit more contact? I paid my deposit and heard nothing from them again,maybe just a few courtesy calls would be nice so you don’t get the feeling you’ve just been forgot about! I did find out my PC had been of sick so maybe this was why i never heard from anyone? Would i recommend MYA to others? Yes but I did have a consultation elsewhere but this was a surgeons private clinic and the customer service there outshone the service i received from MYA by far. But In the end I knew I wanted Mr Traynor so had to go through MYA! I think you receive more 1 on 1 care and service when you book through a surgeons private clinic than went you go through a big company like MYA! The good thing with MYA is they have this forum where you can read the good and bad reviews were as other company’s dont!
I can’t really comment on the aftercare side as I’ve only just had my op, however I did post a comment when I was 2days post op on the forum saying I didn’t feel well, within an hour one of the nurses had rang me to make sure i was ok. I was reassured how I was feeling was normal and to change my painkillers after doing that I felt so much better!
I’ve added some pics feel free to add me and take a look! Hope this helps and good luck on your journey to new boobies = )) xx
Wow amazing stories. Amazing women. Thankyou sooo much for your replies and kindness. It’s fantastic to find somewhere where you’re not ridiculed for wanting to improve your confidence(among other things) I’m leaning towards mr kazzazi at the min as he’s also on park hills books too by the looks of things and have seen he’s amazing at what he does. Thanks again ladies and hope u don’t mind me adding u all xxx
25th November 2011, Fitzroy Hospital, London
Day Case
Pre Op…34A small B
525 Overs
Mr Singh
5 ft 6 ( and a half)!!!!
10 st 6
Size 10/12
From Derbyshire
Age 32!!
Post Op…….36E/F…depending on shop and style!!!
Hellllloooooo my lovelies!
First of all……Sorry…it’s gonna be a long one……I want to be as detailed,accurate and as thorough as possible!!
Right then…..here goes!!
Up and at it at 0400 this morning after showering, washing/ straightening hair and leaving Derbyshire with my partner at 0500!!
Arrived at Clipstone Car Park, Clipstone Mews, London W1W 6BB at 0730! 24 hours £33…bargain however we only paid £28 as we were there less than 9 hours but I’ll come to that later!!!
My admission should have been 0930 (day case) as told by a MYA nurse last Wednesday. Myself and partner walked to hospital from car park….approx 8 minute walk to be told they had me on the list for 0730 admission as Mr.Singh likes all his patients there at one time as he then allocates his theatre space accordingly..I only knew this as I apologised for being soooooo early! We got to hospital at 0755 as I faffed around in the car park…typical me!!! I then filled out administration forms and my partner a visitors badge.
I was shown to my room (10) 1st floor at 0800 by Margaret (staff nurse) and shown around etc! TV, bed, call buttons, en suite….with shower. My gown and sexy paper knicks were ready and waiting on the bed along with a dressing gown….it was then that the nerves kicked in biiiiiiiiig time! Also girls….I would take your OWN dressing gown as the hospital one proper smells of surgery! It freaked me out! Within seconds of Margaret leaving another AMAZING staff nurse called MARIA who was my personal nurse for the day arrived with more paperwork and I then did a Urine test to check pregnancy!! NEGATIVE! I then had my blood pressure, pulse and oxygen levels checked…….happy n healthy girly!
Seconds later I met my anaesthesist DENISE……AMAZING!….who discussed the GA and other general questions and filled out yet MORE paperwork!
10 Mins later my boobie God Mr.Singh came in all suited n booted! He did his artistry, 525s written on left breast and asked me a few MORE questions, any concerns and the actual procedure! He immediately put my mind at (slight) ease….he then said he ”had a bit of LIPO to do then it’s your turn”! He gave me a reassuring arm around my shoulder and said ”I’ll give you a good set”!…and off he went! OMG OMG OMG….This was IT!!….I became all sweaty. nervous, apprehensive and had a few little shakes! I got on top of my bed all dressed up and tried to relax! Gemma23 (my boobie buddy)….who I’ve been keeping in touch with…came in to see me and we chatted for ages as she was in much later than me!! I said goodbye to her went to the loo and MARIA came in and said ”Mr.Singh is ready for you Helen!!” This was 0950. I said my goodbyes to my partner, got my dressing gown and slippers on, tied my hair up and and off I went in the lift up to the 2nd floor with my arm squeezing Marias! I was shaking with nerves from head to toe but kept taking deep breaths to calm myself down!
I got in the anaesthetic room and was greeted by another anaesthetist Chris and lay on the bed with Maria by my side holding my hand! I was wired up to monitors and my right leg wouldn’t stop shaking. I was sooooo nervous but not uncontrollable…..I kept thinking ”come on H, be brave”!! The theatre entrance door was immediately infront of me (with no windows)…thank God… which kept opening but I just turned my head so I didn’t see! The canula was then inserted (not at all painful……..tiny scratch that lasts 2 seconds) but it wasn’t in correctly so needed to be removed and a new one inserted! 2nd time lucky! Mr.Singh came to see me before I was put to sleepy and he gave me lots of reassurance!! He is such a wonderful man!!! I looked at the clock it was 1010. I was chatting to Chris, Denise and Maria as my GA was given……Denise said ”you will go a bit drowsy Helen” and I remember saying ”I’ve got pins and needles in my head, will I go to sleep soon?”
The next thing I knew I was on a trolley being wheeled into the lift and back to my room with a theatre nurse and Maria taking me. I got in my room and was transferred to my bed where my fella was waiting for me! It was 1135! He had been to Maccy D’s! Lucky boy! I sat up in bed feeling absolutely fine!! No pain at all! I had sips of water to begin with to see if I vomited……I was fine…. I then had a throat sweet as my mouth was sooooo dry! I chatted away to my fella and rang my mum n mates. I then had my long awaited cup of tea!! It tasted like the best cuppa ever! I spent the next 3 and a half hours being monitored, having my BP and pulse rate checked and enjoying my lunch! jacket spud with prawn mayo, fruit salad and OJ!! I was able to get myself out of bed unaided from the 1st moment with Maria by my side initially!!!!…..not in the loo though lol!!!!!!
I was apparently given Morphine for pain when in theatre but had no pain killers whatsoever after I was back in my room!! I felt sooo well and no pain!
Mr.Singh came to see me and discharged me at 1500 saying he was more than happy with my progress and surgery went well and as planned!!
We then left and walked back to the car!!!! Fresh air was great!!! Can’t stop touching my boobies at this point!!Got home at 2000 after a short coffee stop!!
Im now writing this waiting for a curry with a vest top on staring constantly at my twins! My oh my, oh my days….they are feeling tight tonight!!! Not so much painful but more like a big ache!!
I’ve just taken my prescribed anti imflammatories, antibiotics and painkillers!! Mr.Singh says I MUST take these for 5 days! Painkillers as long as I like! I’m not going to bother wearing my sports bra until Tuesday as Mr.Singh said I can remove the strapping myself with a warm hair dryer to release the stickiness!!!!!
I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE my new twins and Mr Singh is my knight in shining armour!!! MYA have been fab from start to finish and I have thoroughly enjoyed my day!! It went so so quickly so savour every moment my lovelies!
To all those pre op girlies….honestly you will all be fine and just keep thinking new boobies!!!! You’re doing this for you and your happiness and when it’s all over you will be a different woman!!
Tomorrow I’ll probably be feeling rubbishy so touch wood it’s all plain sailing!!
I would do it all again tomorrow if I had the chance, but with less nerves and I feel sooooo happy and proud of myself and I cant wait to go bra shopping and treat myself!!
Soooo sorry for the essay girls but I used to love reading these boobie stories when I was pre op and now I’m in THE BOOBIE CLUB!
Thanks girls for all the lovely messages, kind words and thoughts….I’ll PM you all back tomorrow!!
Happy reading!
