gutted just found stretch marks :(

im prone to strech marks anyway and got loads when i had my son, but just found some new ones 11 days post opp, anyone else experienced stretch marks after ba xx

Noooooooooooooo!!!!!! Get the bio oil out babe!!! I’ve been lucky so far, already had some stretchmarks after my daughter, but no sign of any yet – fingers crossed xxx

thanx tweetie im so gutted, feeling like i might ave gone a little too big too, feeling sorry for myself xx

aww nikki dont worry about it hunni. ur lovely face and figure will make up for a few strech marks on your boobs xx

I’m really annoyed, did everything right, moisturised for months pre op and started using bio oil and cocoa butter on tops of my boobs post op and at 8 weeks post op, had 2 appear on each breast, I’m now 3 months post op and dont think any more have appeared. Are you using bio oil and stuff? I’m hoping mine start fading soon xxx

hi girls, i’m nearly 3 weeks post op and i have one on each breast, i’ve been rubbing bioil into them day and night and they seem to be fading. I’m prone to them aswell i have’nt even had any kids and i have some faded ones on my hips and even a few very light ones on my bum! x

Nikki, Chin up darlin’ they will fade in time, just crack open the bio oil!! Ive been using it since day 2,…naughty naughty, but if it works I will be over the moon!!!

Why do you think you’ve gone too big?!

x

thanx sandy kutri im using jojoba oil ive always sworn by the stuff, i used it on my c section scar and previous streth marks and it faded them loads, plus it dont block pores like bio oil, i really hope they fade i already had some there anyway but didnt want anymore xx

i got them so i am expecting more the second time around! they will fade! xx

khanni its horrible aint it tweetie they look ugly i was looking at them and they just look stuck on, really hope they look better once they’ve dropped, really thinking id gone smaller xx

Awwww Nikki – its just a case of post op blues I am sure!- already had one or two of those!!!!! Your a gym babe, do lots of chest and shoulders, hopefully that should create some more mucsle around it so they wont look stuck on as you call it. My thinking is that more muscle will give it a rounder more natural look,…just a thought?!

nikki i know how you feel, i know when i do decide to have a baby my belly will be ruined I’m almost 3 weeks post op now and the first few weeks are the most testing so it will get better i promise. You had unders didnt you? with having quite a big implant on your small frame it will take longer for the boobs to drop and settle, they’ll start looking more natural once the muscle softens. x

i hope so, im having a moment of regret hope it goes everyone else is so happy with thier new boobs yet mine are getting me down xx

thanx khanni i had overs and they look so big on my small frame, my bf dont like them at the moment either wish id gone smaller now, opposite of the dreaded boob greed xx

how far post op are you? i had overs too i’m three weeks post op on weds and all my visible swellings gone now. my right boob is still higher than my left so they are uneven but fingers crossed that’ll sort itself out. you had 460’s right? they say your boobs carry on changing for three months. i bet by the 6 week mark they will look alot more natural x

im only 11 days post opp, but im so impatient all i see is these big fake stuck on shiny globes, ive always wanted massive boobs now ive got them i regret it cant belive how shitty im feeling gutted xx

aww babe the first few weeks are the worst, i could’nt even look at mine the first week and a half as my nipples looked so huge and ugly and my boobs were all wonky. and because i could’nt have a proper shower i had a few red spots on my chest, i looked a right state! but now i feel much better. AND YOU WILL TOO! like you said your a small girl and you’ve had these two bags of silcone sqeezed into your chest. it’s a big trauma for your body to be dealing with and 11 days is nothing, im impatient too but times will make them look so much better. looking at your pics they dont look like they’ve dropped yet. i say dont look at them if they are getting you down. i did that and it helped. that way when you do have a good look maybe once every 5 days, you’ll see that they are getting better xhugsx

thanx for the advice khanni really hope i grow to love them, them looking natural just seems so far away, think ill just keep them covered up like you said and try not to look at them, never thought they make me feel like this, ive seen yours too and they look so natural and they’ve dropped already xx

they’re still uneven but the dr did tell me as i had a bigger implant in my right boob it will take longer to catch up. like you i’m impatient so i try my best not to look at them still i had c cups to start with and 345/385 implants so the impact on my body was’nt as drastic, that’s probably why they droped quicker. i do love that they look natural. the bigger implant is still higher up, so the bigger the implant the longer they take to drop. it might seem like they will never look natural but it’s proper early right now they will change so much once your skin stretch’s. try using coco butter aswell as the jojoba oil hunn, it really helped mine drop. i just rubbed it into the tops and sides of my boobs. for now, just enjoy how big they look in clothes and keep don’t look at them too much. it’ll stop you from thinking about them so much xx

is it just normal coco butter or is there specific make, mine are uneven too the left one is bigger and thats the one with the most stretch marks the right seems to be healing quicker too. i struggle to look at them anyway, thought i was the only one, it really takes some getting used to dont it xx

Nikki i too hated mine and 4 years on i love them! please don’t beat yourself up! it takes about a year to settle and look 100% normal. You need to accept that you had surgery and that this is the out come but IT ONLY GETS BETTER!

my boobs where:

High

shiney

tight

spotty

oily

sore

swollen

etc

It all passes! I promise. they drop, swelling lessens, go back to matte, spots etc clear up pain goes, scars heal and you get happier! Chin up girl! Been there, done that, now im happy! its a journey. remember that! xxxxx

thanx maxine, how long did it take before they started looking normal, what were your pre and post opp stats, i cant beleive how i feel about something ive always wanted for over 10 years, think the stretch mark started me off lol xx

it sure does hunn! its a big change but you’ll get use to them. i use palmers coco butter. the one for stretch marks. you can get it from boots or superdrug for 3.50 ish and it lasts ages. heres sumat to cheer you up

just remember if you had’nt got this boob job you would have always wanted it, you’ll grow to love your new boobs!

xx

I was 5″5 130lbs 32AA and was a 32D after, 6 months on a32DD now measuring a 32E!!!

this time around im 5″5 still 140 😮 32E hoping for 32F or bigger?!?!

I would say it took around 6 months for them to feel like they where mine! Getting that sports bra off tho after 6 weeks really helps tho! I felt just the same as you. fat depressed angry upset sad all at once it was horrible. you do get over it i promise! xx

haha khanni that did make me smile, and i will def try the coco butter thanx again for the advice, i love this forum everyones so supportive xx

your welcome hunn, hang in there and keep us posted! xx

thats maxine im measuring a 32e at the momment but they look even bigger than that to me and i was a 32a/aa too, i really hope i start to love them soon coz i hate feeling so shitty xx

mine you i had 310cc and 330cc plus 10 pounds worth of weight gain and 4 years on you! you had far bigger implants! and you are taller and weigh ALOT less! lol xx

nikki i would die for your figure u look great its early days all these girls post op know what there talking about when its my turn i’ll be turning to u for support you’ll be fine slow things down give your body time to heal thank god for this forum im living in the gym at mo got 3 weeks to op and the thoughts of not going post op kills me think it does more for my head than my body take care xx

Aw Nikki, have been reading these messages.. you poor thing you sound so down about it all bless you….. hope you start feeling better about it all soon…..x

your right ritam this forum is def a god send im feeling bit better already. thank you all for all your positive words its really help, post opp blues really got a hold of me lol, thank you riggers too in 6 weeks time ill be looking back on tonight and laughing cause i know im being dull xx

Nikki it’s early days and I think u said you were tall I can’t remember so you can carry off the implants better then a shorter girl. I’m also prone to streckmarks my tummys covered after my first daughter, Nikki How did u get such a flat stomach after c section, I thought it wasn’t possible lol?

ye im 5ft 9 so i am quite tall,think im just having post opp blues, i seen stretch marks then it just made me feel really shitty my moods are changing daily though, i still have a lumpy bit at the bottom of my tummy where the scar is, dont think you can see it in the pics its def there though coz i hate it, other than that i tend to be a bit of a health excercise freak lol and do lots of sit ups lol xx

Big hugs…. I’m trying to keep mine at bay at the mo, def try the palmers cocoa butter, tesco, boots sell it but don’t smother as you will end up with spots which I’m at battle with!

It will soon pass seems you are a day or two behind me,spend a day doing nothing to allow your body to rest (difficult). Promise you will feel better in a couple of days. Try on your fav top to give you a boost and you will realize how amazing you look xxx

thanx louise i was fine till i found that stretch mark it just sent me spiraling downwards i was on a mega downer feeling a bit better now thoughxx

Nikki, been there too – post op blues suck hard!!! I had one of them last week, regretting ever putting these globes into my body, boobs sore and uncomfy, feeling generally poo etc etc. But take a total rest day if possible,(Difficult with kids around!) and do something that will cheer you up (in my case, retail therapy).

It will pass, but its still early days for us both, It will get better and soon – summer is here and we can proudly wear tops knowing that we have the boobs to fill them. Im gonna attempt another light cardio session this morning, I found that really helped my moods last week, just a bit of light sweating (also to get rid of some sexual frustration,…too much info!!!!)lol

Hope today is a better day for you sweetie

xxx

lmao tweetie you always make me laugh, sexual frustration ha ha i got rid of mine the weekend lol,im feeling a lot better this morning a sleep always does me the world of good when im an emotional mess lol, still cant believe how black and white i thought having boobs were, i didnt think it would be such an emotional journey of love hate ha ha, glad to here your doing some cardio this morning,njoy , i ran my son to school this mroning not a a good idea at all, my breast bone was killing lol, thanx again for your positive words xxx

Nikki did you have any stretch marks before your op? I have quite a few faint ones on the top of my boobs already and i’m really worried they’re going to grow when the implants are put in

I’ve had mixed reviews though, some people think they’ll get better and others think worse…. By the way i think they look great, really lovely shape and size xx

I know – its more emotional than I ever thought, but on the whole, I am just having ‘up days’ – the down days are few and far between!!!!

Glad I can bring a smile to your face hun x Most jealous of your weekend, no such joy for me, all the joys of single motherhood here and nothing shining on the horizon at the moment for a better outlook either. Damnit!!! lol

Yeah, running probably not such a brill idea in hindsight eh? Bet it seemed like a good idea at the time,…

xxx

suzyp ye i did have some faint ones before from pregnancy and they have got worse im gutted but i guess its the sacrifice i made boobs for stretch marks i just hope they fade.

tweetie i reckon them big bangers of yours will be getting loads of attention your way and hopefully you find a nice decent man to release your frustration lol. its so reassuring to know that other people are having love hate days too it makes dealing with it so much easier, i love this forum xx

Hope your having a much better day today chick. S anyway – just came across this site, quite useful!!!

I’m 21 days post op from uplift and i’m not sure which stretch marks are pre-op and which if any are post-op. I’m 5’6″/5’7″. I’ve got post op blues too, dont particularly like my boobs, ok they are a big improvement on before but thats not difficult lol, i’d hoped and expected them to be bigger and they just look awful to me (i try not to look at them too often), i cant put my left arm straight up – not sure if i’ve pulled something or if its normal but its all tight down my left side and its really getting me down how limited i am with kids especially youngest and my moods are all over the place, one minute i can be happy and next crying. x

Morning Nikki, hope you are feeling a bit better today hunni. It is still really early days for you, and they will change as they drop and soften. Once you get pass the 6/8 weeks and start wearing normal bras again, they look SO much better and more normal looking. Big hug for now, chin up hunni x
