What is fluffing

Can someone please explain to me what fluffing is. lol

Also how do I go about viewing some of your piccies. There are quite a few of you ladies on here that measured the same as me before their op and now they are measuring what I'd like to be after my op.

Hi hun
When you initially have the breast augmentation the implants can sit quite high on your chest no matter whether you have overs/partials or full under the muscle placement. They are very firm during this time. Over the weeks and months the skin stretches and the muscle relaxes (if partial or under placement) the implants drop into a more natural looking position and the breast softens for a more natural feel. During the course of these changes which can seem to happen overnight or over a few days on some occasions where they seem to be high one day and the next one or both implants seem to change all of a sudden. The changes can result in fluffing also known as a sudden increase in bra size, one day your bra fits perfect the next it's uncomfortable of leaving read marks over the cups. It can take a year or so to see the full and final result of a BA. So sometimes they don't seem to change for a few months and you think they are done, then your bra becomes tight and you've fluffed up another size.

As for pics when you have been a member for over 2 weeks and have a post count of over 30 people will share pics with you, as per the rules for newbies you can see here [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
so just join in, ask as many questions as you like and when the girls have got to know you a bit they will prob share with you if you reply to one of their threads about photos etc

Fluffing to me means you boobs are dropping and settling into place.

Although alot of people think fluffing occurs more in girls with unders than overs as it takes longer for the muscles to allow the implants to drop into place, therefore meaning your boobs are bigger.

I personally had overs and my boobs have def fluffed and I put it down to the skin relaxing (it was very tight for the first few months) and the implant dropping into place.

I hope I made some sense there as thats what fluffing means to me. xx

Thanks girls, just trying to get my head around all the terminology etc.

Hello and welcome.

Don't worry hun, you're not going to end up with huge boobs. They will just settle and relax looking more natural over the coming months. We always end up measuring bigger but they don't look as big as they measure......does that make sense??

I didn't tell anyone about my ba and no-one has noticed, the only way they would know is if they saw me naked.

Thanks Alfie,
I'm really happy with what I'm seeing so far, but tucked away in a sports bra, it's kinda difficult to tell. This site is fab, it's answering all the questions that keep popping into my head and so reassuring to hear from others with first hand experience.

this should be it :/ x

I thought this ^^^^^^ was really helpful and clear xx

Now I'm confused lol.

So once they have fluffed/dropped you measure a different size?!

Is this overs or unders or both? x

both will be really high at first and both placements can fluff after settling into a more natural position.
