If you're not happy with your result? I'm nearly 3 months post op and although my breasts are loads better than the empty flaps of skin I had pre ba......they're still not what i wanted.
The size, shape and position are not what I expected and its so depressing to finally have boobs but still not like them.
If I had a reop am I liable to pay all costs again?

You would have to pay out all over again, a re-op is usually more than a 1st BA too. I would hang in there.. it takes up to a year to see the final result x

i think it depends hun. what exactly is wrong? If you just 'don't like' them then you probably would have to pay... if there is actually something wrong like they are different sizes or sitting too high etc then you may be covered for a reop. The best thing to do would to book an appt with your surgeon to go over everything, and ensure he writes all of your worries down. At 3 months it's likely he'll just say "oh wait until 6 months" BUT you will still get an idea of where you stand xx

Hi what newboobz said is what i have been recently told. I wouldnt be allowed a reop (free)because i didnt like them due to wishing i had gone bigger etc but if there is a problem then you should see if you can meet your surgeon again!
Hope you feel better,

3 months is still early post op, give it time because you can see amazing changes all the way up until 12 months. Where do you stand. .. 571992make sure you tell James everything you don't like, and get him to say if/what can done and if it is covered as a re op or not xxx

I will speak to James about it but I'm sure he'll tell me to give it time. To be honest they looked better when they were swollen! At least they were in the right place then. ....seems like they're really low now and my nipples are too high. Im just sick of them and it gets me down thinking that I've spent this money and im no happier.
Hope all you girlies are enjoying your newbies x

Aw hun, it is still very early days, you do still have healing to do. I know it's easy to look at the other girls avi's and think they are all done with healing at 3 months, and for a few they may be, but everyone healing is different and it can take some of us longer than others to see the desired result. My healing took over 6 months and it was a very frustrating time.
I would make james aware of your concerns at your post op consultations but at the moment I wouldn't judge your boobs so harshly, they still have time to change and healing to do.

Sorry just read the part where you said that your boobs were low and your nipples were high. I would actually make an appointment with your surgeon to have a look, it may be bottoming out of the implants (nothing dangerous dont worry) or it could still be healing. You would need a re op to correct bottoming out. Best speak to your surgeon and see what he says.

Dove Im beginning to dislike my boobies too. I know Im only a month PO but I sometimes think their just not big enough? I feel horrid in my clothes and not one top looks remotely nice. I think the sports bras are partly to blame for my not liking them, I just HATE my sports bra massively.

Good luck with it, ive had a right barny with James and mybreast about mine. There's a cup size difference and the nipples are in different directions and different heights, boobs are different heights.

Like u say they are better than they were but u feel the same, wish I'd made different choices pre op!!

However in answer to ur question I think u got little chance if reop, James won't comment on mine in writing and I'm too **naughty word** off to go and see him and mybreast practically laughed when I told them why I was unhappy. I give up, I thought about saving for another op but im not wasting that amount of cash again, I'm going travelling in Jan instead, with my wonky boobs lol

Loclo wearing a sports bra isnt going to give you an idea as to how they'll look in tops as its not the same as a bra, once you've been given the all clear for wires you will see them look much better! I've been so unhappy with mine that although I was given the go ahead for wires at 6 weeks I didn't actually buy a bra or get measured until yesterday at nearly 3 months post op!
Also you'll still see some changes hun, at 6/7 weeks mine softened and weren't so stuck on and hard, they dropped more and ut really changed the look of them.
Keep your chin up hun you just got to give it a little more time.
Have you tried a bra on yet? X

Nope I emailed him pics a few weeks ago and he said they look excellent, I'd live with his decision to put different profiles in my boobs if the size different wasn't so noticeable. I can't wear cupped bras, either they are too small on left and physically hurt me or if I go bigger it doesn't fit the right boob.

I was under the assumption if u had breast surgery it wouldn't leave u unable to wear a bra but I stand corrected - fuming

this is the size difference, i can fit my hand in the difference between them if i go up a size but the left fits perfect. i dont think thats acceptable - in any instance im forced to wear soft support vests. wasnt what i gave them 5k of my hard earned money for!!!

Oh hun that's crap! Book an appointment with James, he can't give an opinion just from looking at a picture.
I've tried to find a bra everywhere but my nipples are too high so the cup wont cover tyem! I should not have to keep tucking my nipples back into the bra, a bigger cup is just too big and gapes.
I'm going to tell him im not happy, I also don't feel like the skin has been filled fully so tye profile of boobs are not really there at the top, its just skin and then bam....some lumps by my belly! x

Dove it sounds to me like you have bottomed out xx This can be caused by two things;
1. Over dissection of the pockets - Surgeon error
2. Heavy implants over time - Large implants

1 is more likely if this has happened soon after surgery and you should NOT be paying for corrective surgery xx I had 2 ops paid for by Transform to correct this x

What you are describing if often referred to by surgeons as 'setting sun' i.e. areola that is clearly visible beyond the material of the bra x

I would encourage you and anyone else for that matter to fight for what you have paid for regarding your result xx When I say that, if you are merely unhappy with the size, you are probably not going to get very far, however, if there are other issues that you are unhappy with then you should be going back and complaining and fighting to get the matter put right at no expense to yourself xx

You are not surgeons or experts, they are the ones with all the skills, therefore if the result is not up to standard then they should be putting it right xx

If you bought and paid a lot of money for anything else and ended up unhappy with it you would complain would you not?? xx A BA is not different xx

There are lots of people like me on here that have fought against these companies and are more than happy to offer advice on how you go about this xx feel free to PM me or ask for advice on the forum regarding complaining xx

One thing you should not do is give up xx I have even known girls in the past to have a reop for size alone at a massively reduced cost to them so it is worth persevering xx :ok:
