I am having overs but I am worried because of my training I workout a lot 2/3 times a day and I am constantly losing bodyfat and gaining lean mass so I’m really worried about rippling post-op. Is it very noticeable if you get it? Can you ask for unders or if your told overs that’s it? Xxx
Promise this will be my last worry hehe x
hey Reg7…I had unders and I’m afraid I have rippling, there’s no guarantee with either sugar..x
Ok babe thanks, is it very noticable? I spose there’s no getting around it maybe I should have waited until I got my body to where I want it before having my BA but then I’m not gonna stop training so I guess its something ill have to live with. Hopefully new boobies with the rippling will still be better than my old boobs anyway xxx
You have less chance of rippling with unders as the muscle provides a smooth appearance across the top of the implant. If you do get rippling with unders, its more likely to be underneath your boob or at the outer sides where it is less noticable. x
That’s what I thought hun. I wasn’t given the choice though. I said to mr singh I was worried about training and that I’d rather have unders and he said an implant of that size won’t go under it goes over. I’m having 525s and I know girls who have had 525 unders so I’m a bit confused why he said that xx
Yeh I’ve also heard of ppl having 525 unders (I had 460’s). I also train a lot, the only downside is the recovery time..and exercises that isolate the chest muscles..the strange ‘pulling’ sensation you get when working the muscle makes me stop at a certain point, so I have lost some strength in my chest. However, given the choice I prefer having nice, feminine, big boobs now
Yeahh I think nice new boobies even with rippling will still be better. But I think I might bring this up with mr singh again xx
What are better overs or unders? Xx
Some girls might have had 525 unders, but maybe ur body can’t, especcially if u train a lot ur muscle will b strong which makes it harder I think. I’m having 380 overs and mr t said if I went under I cud probs only have 260s!! Because of my anatomy, and my muscle strongs. Aint nothing u can do about that!
If your worried bwt rippling sounds like the only option u have is to go smaller , as unders doesn’t seem an option for u, like me.
Xx
Oh ok yeahh I see that makes sense thankyou hunnie xx
Yeah I couldn’t hav unders cos of my chest muscles being too developed, even on my op day Mr adamo was shaking his head in disbelief at them lol
Lol maybe that’s why I have to have overs then. Thanks girls I was a bit confused xx
you should definatly mention to your surgeon what ideal body weightyou are aiming for. i have little body fat (well, pre-op i did…no training, im getting the wobbles lol)… had a BMI of 20 beofre op and could not have overs and the biggest size i could have was 340 unders because otherwise i’d get rippling. my surgeon said there still maybe a risk of rippling under my boob but as long as i don’t drop below 8 1/2 stone, i should be ok… but that is something they cant guarentee and something you are not covered for.
i couldn’t have overs because i had very little breast tissue.
make sure you air every little concern you have before have your BA. good luck hun. you must be very excited! xx
Rippling really isnt a big deal reg I have it because I have very little body fat due to my excess training bmi of 17 maybe lower ,I cant see mine but I can occastionally feel it, it makes no impact on the appearance of my boobs and doesnt bother me in the slightest, its really not a big deal xx
Aww thanks nikki, yeahh I’ve seen your pics and they are fab you can’t see it at all. Did you have overs or unders hun? Xx
def mention it, cos we are all so different. i would have thought i would have been like you charlotte (my bmi is/was 18.7 and i weigh 8 st) i am thinking it must be because ive had 3 kids that my breast tissue is stretchable lol! but at the end of the day i guess it comes down to believing ur surgeon knows whats best for you, he has seen all sorts of shapes, sizes and types of breast and body!!
i am sure you will be more than happy when you come round from your op on wed :-)xx
joanne pmsl at stretch breast tissue!! i breast fed 2 kids and my tissue broke up so i needed under the muscle.
At your consultation girls did your surgeon examine your breasts a lot? Coz I seemed to just lay down on the table/bed thing he felt my boobs for few seconds and that was it. But I guess they are experts now at knowing if you have enough breast tissue for overs or not just by looking?xx
lol, maybe it was cos i gave up too soon after starting that it just got left behind ahahah!
these surgeons have seen and hadled thousands of boobs (lucky men lol)… they know what they see. i stood infront of the surgeon for 2 min. he prodded, poked and measured distance between my nipples and said “only under. 340 is size you can go or smaller”. lol. kazzazi is a man of few words.x
few words but great boobs 
(p.s love ur boobie cake pic charlotte)
*blush thanks Joanne.xx
they look alot better now
I had different opinions from different surgeons. One offered unders and one offered overs. One said they’d decide on the day. I think they base it on how much breast tissue you have. Ultimately I had overs and I’m very haPpy! I go to the gym -well sometimes:-) and it hasn’t affected me so far. My sister in law had unders ten years ago and she is very sporty she has been ok her boobs are still pert and smooth and round. She had Huge implants put under the muscle as she had no breast tissue !!!!!!
