Re-Op Buddies

My areola and nipples are not central xx So lots of boob underneath xx

They look very strange and out of proportion and have done since I had them done xx I waited for a year for everything to heal properly, as instructed and when I went back for my year check spoke to PS about it and they tried to charge me for a second lift xx I complained at that point and they agreed reop and here I am xx

Bricking it that either A. there will be no difference or B. they will look worse!!

GULP......5 days to go

Oh Kay you must be nervous. I can't imagine waking up and not being happy with the results :-( You'll be fine hun and it will be such a relief once it's all sorted out. xxxx

Well, I suppose when I woke up I was fine as was all bandaged xx when those were removed I wasn't unhappy totally as there was an improvement obviously xx In saying that though I wasn't totally happy either xx

The feelings of unhappiness just never faded or went away xx So I really, really hope that this time it's different xx

I am so disorganised this time round it's unbelievable hahaha xx I haven't bought or even thought about anything yet xx I don't think I'm going to either haha xx I have no idea what sort of size I will be this time so am just gonna go along with my sports bras I already have (range of sizes) and see what happens hahaha x

I wonder if this time round I will be less swollen as not having an implant fitted.....? I hope I don't get all strapped up again.......I hated that sticky strapping stuff they used last time xx

I don't know what to expect this time, I'm with a different surgeon completely and I am having my pre op consultation in April so I'll have a billion questions.

I felt much love from my August buds and just thought it might be nice for us girls who are facing a re-op to be able to chat to eachother and support others in the same position without scaring the newbies in the normal buddies threads.

I'm having a re-op because my 310g implants aren't wide enough for my frame. My boobs stop a cm or so before the end of the outside of my chest it kind of looks like someone elses boobs have been put on my chest but they don't quite fit lol. My surgeon has agreed to the re-op and I am booked in for the 19th April.

Hiya summer looking forward to chatting to you hun xx

Hey getting my re-op on 19th of April too!!! Where are you getting yours doen? Imangine if we were at same hospital! I'm at Oaklands Manchester. x

I am going to be at the Chaucer in Canterbury.

x

Hiya Jay hope you are well huni, no we aren't going to be at the same hopspital I went with THG. But same day though! 4 weeks tomorrow to be precise! Are you nervous this time? I'm a bit giddy about it to be honest I just can't wait for them to be sorted out ready for my hols in July. xx

Ah well at least we will be going through same thing...at same time. I'm looking forward to it as I just want them sorted and to be able to move on! Just checked and getting the Allergan Inspira range which has a lifetime guarentee! Pleased about that! x

Thats what I've got hun and they feel great I have no problem with the implants themselves and am getting the same ones again just wider this time.

Its a pain having to go through the surgery again but at least we are getting our problems sorted. The only thing I'm not looking forward to is the post op bloating lol I went ages last time, I think I will ask them to mix some senokot in with my op drugs lol xx

Is it the extra full projection? I got offered them and wanted to go for them but the PS said the words "can have an artificial look" and my Mum was like "Jay why be greedy? Stick to the full projection!" It was quite funny and since my implants are going from a 340/380cc up to a 450cc I thought best not to push my luck with her! Even though i've paid for them...she's been stressed by the whole me needing a re-op!

I bloated too hun! Am getting senna for after next time. I swear it was awful! x

I have the extra full projection hun so do alot of the girls who went with THG I think they use them as standard in the Natrelles. I don't think they look anymore fake than any other implants I've seen, to be honest I only think implants look overly fake if they are too big for you if anything the extra full projection are less round so don't have as much of a stuck on look its just a way of getting more cc's in with a smaller width implant they just stick out a bit more at the front.

I reckon I should have had the moderate profile though I could have done with more width. From the side my boobs look massive in clothes but from the front they are just lacking.

I'm going to have to have a word about the size he wants to use in my re-op though cos I don't think the 400's are going to cut it they are only 7.5mm wider than the ones I have got not and one of the surgeons on here said to be careful because it prob won't make that much difference! xx

Maybe ask for a moderate profile cos when nurse showed me them they were wider if that makes sense and not as sticky out. Which is what you want. Ah you've got me wanting extra high now! Lol!

Just think hon this time in 4 weeks we'll have had our ops! I'll be drinking sweet tea like its going out of fashion! x

Yes hun thats right when I was showed the cui's in mod profile they were wider than the extra full projection. I like the projection I've got though I guess I just want it all lol.

Ditto with the sweet tea lol, I can't wait til my op my OH thinks I'm mad! I keep telling him I'm not a wierdo its not the surgery I'm looking forward to its the new boobs again well the right boobs to be precise lol. Not looking forward to the sports bras though mind you my surgeon only had me in them for 4 weeks last time.

What size do you think 450 will take you to? xx

Well we better get what makes us happy! Lol!

Ah...I like the recovery as I spend time at home watching movies etc. Drinking sweet tea! Lol.

I think I better contact PS and find out what size bra to buy! x

I'm home xx

All went well xx I'm strapped up good and proper and feel fine xx

I can't really see anything cos of the strapping but they must have done something as I was in there and hour and a half!!!

Will keep you all posted xx

Congrats Kay glad your ok hun x

Thanks YR xx I'm glad it's all over and done xx

I've just had a tooth out :-( I sobbed like a baby all the way through it and still can't stop crying. I'd rather have a BA at least you get something nice at the end of it!!!

Rest well hun x

Aw bless ya xx Hope you are okay xx My OH had one out about a month ago, bless him, the dentist really struggled to get it out and he had to have stitches in his mouth and everything!! :pale:

Like you say at least with a BA you get something nice xx

yes they struggled with mine today :-( I'll be ok

Oh poor you YR xx I know he was in agony for a couple of days xx They must have gone at his for a good couple of hours xx He said it was just his whole jaw that was sore xx They never even gave him pain killers for it!! xx

I am a wuss with anything like that xx I've never even had a filling haha xx the last time I had teeth out, many many years ago I was given a GA at the dentist, that's how long ago it was hahaha xx I would have to go to hospital now for anything teeth related xx

Oh your poor husband. I must say the injection they gave me was very painful :-( I cried through the whole procedure...not just little tears but bloody sobs

you're lucky not having much dental work.

How are you feeling after BA? remind me again why you needed a reop? Are you in pain?

It must have been bad for him too, he is normally very stoic but even he said he thought that they had broken his jaw

I know I'm lucky xx I would be so scared if I had to have a filling I think I would cry!! xx

I'm feeling okay thanks xx not as bad as first time round xx I had a revision of my lift, to centralise the nipple/areola due to the lower pole being fuller than the upper and them just looking odd xx from what I can gather they have given me a second lift basically xx fingers crossed it has worked and they have made them look nicer xx

Lol how funny that you're scared of a filling but ok with boob jobs

I hope you're pleased with the results :-)

ps filings are ok...it's just the tooth pulling. I kept thinking about Mad Frankie Fraser who used to pull teeth as a form of torture (you might be too young to know about him).

Hahaha, I wish I was too young but sadly I know exactly who you are talking about hahahahaha xx

I hope I'm pleased too xx
