    Finally booked my surgery!

    My story, from being 15 years old, my boobs have played on my mind everyday, consciously and sub consciously.

    When I was 19 I got in a relationship with a man 10 years older than me who knocked my confidence down and I booked a boob job with a different clinic.

    6 weeks pre op I was terrified, I’ve always been a worrier and everyday I thought of something to put me off. So I cancelled it and broke up with him. But I believe everything happens for a reason as 2 years later they were exposed for using PIP implants! Lucky escape!

    The years have passed, I’m 26 in 6 weeks (2 weeks before my surgery) and not a day goes by still when I don’t think about it. It doesn’t always upset me, it’s just there, like a weight on my shoulders. All the outfits I’ve had to leave at the shop because I can’t go bra less, all the bikinis I’ve wanted but they weren’t padded, all the underwear sets I’ve never owned….at 25 and a woman who’s been in love (and out again :D), I’ve NEVER owned a matching underwear set, let alone a lace bra and I think that’s really sad.

    So I’ve took the plunge, along with my friend who’s booked in 2 weeks after me so were on thus journey together, dr kazazzi, and over Christmas.

    And after all the worry over the years and everything I’ve over thought about, capsular contracture, infection, ripples, what do I do at 80, what if I can’t afford to pay again in 15 years…the list goes on….I FINALLY feel content and so excited. And seeing how it’s changed all your lives is making me so emotional.

    It’s not about having big boobs for me, it’s about being comfortable and not waking up every morning looking in the mirror and thinking eurgh! I’m happy with everything else in my life and on my body and I’m finally saying bye to the weight on my shoulders. Or weight on once the twins are attached 😀

    If I’m honest, the only thing I’m scared about is the needle :,( absolutely petrified of them, so any advice would be gratefully received.

    Thank you for sharing your stories with someone who this means so much too!

    Go you for finally doing what you’ve always wanted!!
    I’m the same as you in being absolutely terrified, especially of needles! The nurse at my pre-op told me if you tell the nurses in the hospital they can give you calming medication! Hope that helps a bit! It made me feel better after she told me that!

    Thank you all.

    Sorry Aimee and dawn your posts came through while my last post was loading.

    Aimee I wear a very padded 32c but I wore a 34a when I was younger. Even when I gain or lost weight, they don’t change. But literally have nothing. I’ll add some pics to my profile soon now we’ve connected.

    Thank you dawn that’s really good to know. So happy you had such a good experience. Xx

    Life is extremely short! Jump in with both feet and go for it. Nothing can be worse than years of looking at aspects of your body and being sad when it’s so easy to fix xx

    Love this, it’s so honest and probably puts into words how a lot of us are feeling. I can’t wait to be able to wear amazing clothes too and finally feel like a woman. It’s really silly but I know it’s my boobs that are holding me back – I feel like a teenage girl still even though I’m not. I’m having my op just after my 26th birthday in 4 weeks :). Do you have a boobie Instagram Hun? Xx

    @nwhite I know exactly how you feel and have felt exactly the same throughout my life, and at 33 I have waited long enough! I got 450cc/400 put in a B/C cup 3 weeks ago and I am an E! I can’t believe it!
    The whole experience from beginning to now has been perfect. The anticipation, the pre-op, the surgery itself and watching them change and get better every day has been amazing.
    The day of the surgery was the best, I love the MYA hospital and the nurses are so lovely. Don’t worry about the needles that is the least of your worries,. You have so much adrenaline and anxiousness that I don’t even remember the needle (just don’t look at it!)
    Wish you all the best and if you need any advice please ask. Good luck xx

    This is exactly how I feel. I have been unhappy with my 30a chest since I can remember. My younger sister has lovely big boobs and I always remember thinking how unfair it was. I hate myself in underwear, bikinis, dresses. I look at my body and like what I see apart from my awful out of proportion boobs. I have curvy hips and bum and just look so bottom heavy despite only being a size 6.

    I am tired of disliking myself and totally ready to change and love myself! Just starting my journey in researching surgeons and I absolutely can’t wait to take the plunge! I have requested you a a friend Nicola as I would love to follow your journey! X

    It’s so lovely to read a story so similar to mine! I had my surgery 7 days ago at the ripe young age of 36! I turned 37 the next day…..what a birthday gift to myself!

    Being so flat chested had occupied my mind every day for over 20 years and I finally decided to stop wasting energy each day and have the op. After 6 months of research I finally had it done last Saturday. And although the recovery IS painful and at the moment I’m feeling a tad down I have to remind myself why I have gone through this!!
