worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
Hi lady's I have been offered a choice of 6months capsular protection or 3yrs for an extra £200, i have phoned other company's and they have offered a longer period of time for 5 yrs, when I researched on line its shows that capsular can happen in 5 to 10 years time I'm so worried now because the hospital will not cover me and I cant have them replaced as I just don't have that extra income has this happend to anyone? pls help
Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
You will need new implants about every 10 years sometimes sooner. It's not a one off op. The best thing to do is keep a boobie fund, as no where will cover you for cc for very long. Plus if you read the small print they will only cover cc for grade 4 and 5 which is very bad cases.
Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
That sounds strange to me that you have pay extra, I don't have to and I'm going with the same company and surgeon, maybe you could speak with them again about it, unfortunately you are not going to no if you are going to get cc so its hard to judge.

Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
Misf makes a good point - they don't cover the types of CC most girls on here have had- they cover the ones that are REALLY bad - grades 4 and 5 - I doubt most of us would want to live with hard, painful, distorted boobies of grade 2 or 3 and so would have to pay for the re-op.

Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
omg girls if that's the case I'm really considering not going threw with it :( welshvicci 123 may I ask how much they have quoted you ?
Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
You will always need a re op one day and these are slightly more because they charge to remove the old implants.
Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
I need to play the lotto then coz I seriously would not be able to afford to do this again unless it was in 20 to 30 years time :( I was hoping that it would last that long. do you know any lady's that have ha them in that long with no trouble?
Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
There may be some that do. But you would be taking a big risk that they would last that long.
Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
You know what I THINK I'M not going to bother with it I've really got cold feet now :( this is to much strain on my brain and pocket I have never sweated so much in thinking about the size, complications the risks and the financial side of it all I want to cry why is it so hard to have your dream breast's :(misf1 wrote:There may be some that do.

Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
It's too bad you feel that way hun, I mean I stressed it for 10 years and now I've never been happier in my WHOLE LIFE.
But I got a healh credit card and plan to pay it off and then have it available for the re-op.
It's your decision though hun.

Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
Hi angel your health credit plan does it cover cc and is it like an insurance if so what are they called? and may I ask how much? I feel better knowing I can insure them as I was told there is no such thing.alexandra33 wrote:It's too bad you feel that way hun, I mean I stressed it for 10 years and now I've never been happier in my WHOLE LIFE.

Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
are u uk hun cause ali is in america we don't have them cards here and i may be wrong but i don't think it's insurance as ali has to pay it all back and pay for a future re-op!! its the equivalent to us in the uk getting finance xx

Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
For me I had done TONS of research and when I met the doctor, it just clicked. I was nervous, but knew I'd want to do it "now or never"!
Yes, it's like a regular credit card, but you can only use it for healthcare purposes, and I'll have to pay it all back. The good part of it is it's interest free for 1 year so if I can pay it off quickly, I'm getting a deal!
I don't think there's any insurance for a BA though....

Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
Hey diva...I would say reasearch and faith in surgeon contributes to calmness. I'm pre op but have researched a lot and realise I may have complications requiring a reop and that a re op will be required anyway in the long run so I'm ok with that aspect, but the complications part it the bit that bothers me...I feel like I'm on a roller coaster, sometimes I'm scared and other times im ok about it but I have throughly researched my surgeon and I know if I am going to do it she is the best surgeon for me x
Oh yeh also, bmi do a finance type credit card thing but I have not researched into that so can't say much more about it x

Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
hun you'll never ever be able to insure a ba thats why u have a list of things that may go wrong and at somepoint you'd need them changed either way so insurance companies won't insure them. i saw went ps went with that ps but i have friends who have had him and i did a lot of research online before i paid out any money. you'll know if its right i'm not worried about paying 20 times for boobs cause there totally worth missing out on stuff for xx

Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
I have looked into insurance for a boob job and I honestly think there is no such thing here in the UK. BMI (another surgery/clinic) offer a BMI card if you go through them. Its like a credit card but only for using it on any healthcare things within there company. They offer an interest free period, sometimes its 6months sometimes its 12. I think it then goes up to 9.9% APR. It doesnt have an expiry date or a date that you have to pay if off by. But obviously if you was to get it and managed to pay it off, if you needed to have a re-op you would be able to put it on the card again.

Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
Hun you will never get insured for a ba, as its something that will need to be changed withing 15-20 years, and yes there are complictions but thats thr risk you take when making the decision to have a ba.
If you are truely worried about the complications and your unsure I would maybe think about it a bit harder hun, becuase once its done its done.

Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
HI hun. THey say 1 in 10 women will get cc. And It's less common with unders. I have been worrying about complications too, and I'm far from rich. I have a loan through lloyds. But at the end of the day, I've wanted this for years. And I know it can change how I feel about myself, my life and my relationship with my husband. Everything comes with risks sweet, but if we don't take risks, we wouldn't do anything in life. Be positive. It's far more likely ur surgery will be successful and you'll be happy.

It's probably 10 years till you'll need to change ur implants, cross that bridge when you come to It, anything can happen in 10 years! Miles away. ..

Re: worried that 3yrs cover is not enough for capsular
Amy- totally agree with you!..everything we do has risks, going out everyday is a risk, its just one those things. You have to weigh up the pros and cons, and in my personel opinion the pros outweigh the cons.
