:thumbup:
i agree - natural is best, big or small.
However, if Deb feels she needs a bit of "lift" or wanted a reduction for health reasons then I could understand.
We're told to accept what we're given and like it but it's not always that simple is it?
I don't lose sleep over any of my physical imperfections but it doesn't mean i wouldn't change them if i could.
I'm in the natural camp too but if Debs is unhappy with her size then no amount of persuasion will veer her from changing them.
Get all the info you can ( google is your best friend :thumbup: ) research carefully the clinic you're thinking of using and think long and hard before going into it.
Remember, Jordan is only top of the sexy charts with teeange boys and Nuts readers confused
Natural always look better..whatever their size
whereas plastic look like plastic yuk!
Debs, I have to admit to looking into this also and so far, the only thing that has stopped it happening thus far is - am i being selfish spending a decent amount of money on myself, rather than on my children?
Having said that, I have spoken to a few friends that decided to go ahead with an 'enlargement' through Bupa. Ive researched this private company and with confirmation from before mentioned friends, they seem to be my most likely candidates. From the consultaions beforehand, through surgery, then the very long aftercare they provide.
Easy to find info on the net, including practices near yourselves and background info on each surgeon/consultant.
As long as your happy with your decision Debs, go for it!

Debs, I've not had a boob job but Mrs Kiss had an implant for reconstructive purposes due to breast cancer.
Obviously I was concerned about her health so I researched the subject to the nth degree.
I'm not a specialist or doctor but my own personal advice would be just to be aware of the potentialrisks.
Of course having the general anaesthetic carries a risk, there is the risk of infection, also the possibility of contracture where scar tissue forms around the implant and gets tighter until it goes hard and the implant has to be removed/replaced.
Even the newer implants won't last a lifetime so having to have them replaced further down the line is very likely. Also the chance that the implant could mask any changes in breast tissue on a mammogram.
If you do choose to go ahead ask to see photos of your surgeon’s work – good AND bad. Any reputable surgeon should be happy to do so, and should also be able to give you their percentage rate regards to successful and unsuccessful operations.
I am not against breast implants; I just feel that the media portrays them as a quick and easy solution to low self-esteem. There are many genuine reasons as to why some people require breast enlargement/reduction/reconstruction and the risks far outweigh the potential benefits.

Mrs G...
When last we met I personally could see nothing wrong with your breasts :rascal:
But.....
If someone is unhappy with their appearance for whatever reasons then they have to consider alterations..
Low self esteem can be a very damaging ilness and can have drastic consequences if untreated or ignored..
My sis-in-law recently had breast enlargement as she felt very unhappy with her appearence and after some discomfort and pain post op she is now a much happier person so it can and does work....
Just choose who verycarefully
...
Mallock mate , not wishing to open a can of worms - but having any kind of cosmetic surgery as a treatment for self esteem issues is at best temporary and at worst going to magnify the problem . If the issue is really about self esteem then I would definately say work on the self esteem first and not consider any surgery until it was sorted .

Obviously you have never been in the same position then dunno
It wasnt a choice made lightly and she is far more outgoing and feels better all round now so I say it was sucsesfull..
I'm in full agreement with you Mallock (I've not worked out the quote thingy yet). A friend of mine had a breast enlargement a couple of years ago and she's a different girl - it's great seeing her confident, outgoing and secure in herself. It wasn't an easy decision for her to make but she has no regrets.

No i havent been Mallock , and I didnt mean to comment directly on your sis in law as i dont know her , but the key word in your comment was "recently" perhaps we should both reserve judgement on the success of a breast augmentation as a cure for self esteem issues until a while longer after the event . As I suggested as far as self esteem goes quick fix usually means quick relapse . I dont personally have experience of having a breast operation , but have had plenty of contact with low self esteem .
I truly hope that I am wrong in her case and that new breasts totally alter her inner self image - although if they do perhaps it points to a deeper issue altogether .
Peace
I would have to say in the natural camp, I realise self esteem has entered the arena and tha will be the contributing factor. Smaller size does not mean a smaller person/personality we are naturally born the way we are for a reason if every one was the same it would be boring.
How people look at you matters but how you look at yourself matters even more. At the age of 9yr i got something called Bells Palsy its a facial thing and looks similar to having a stroke, it's something that normally goes after about 3 months in my case i have now had it for 30yrs.
I could have had plastic surgery to put it right(to a degree but not complete), but decided against it and over the years it has defined who I'AM its got considerabley better and most people wont notice it but I do especially in pictures and when tired. But its me and I will never change it.
Having said that you have to do what you feel is right for you.
Even when it all goes well - too often people forget that a boob job is not like a puppy:
- They are not for life.
And yet in some ways they are:
- The life-span is far less than yours (or at least should be).
- Sooner or later there will be a mess to sort out.
Whatever you pay for now - you will have to pay for again in the future or pay to have them taken out (which leaves you even smaller than at the start).
Each time you have it done the risk increases - due to advanced age, scaring, tissue damage, etc...

...as mine are big enough as it is!!
:twisted: :wanker: :rascal:
I'm a man of very few words wink
A couple of years ago I nearly had mine done, I'd found a surgeon, had a consultation and booked an appointment. Then my current boyfriend talked me out of it. He pointed out to me that whilst my boobs weren't that big, at least they were pert and that maybe the time to have them done would be better left until later in life if they actually needed some work doing (although he may have had a slightly biased view as if I remember right I'd talked him into paying for them lol).
My reasons for having them done didn't have anything to do with self esteem, quite simply I just wanted bigger boobs, and as I like to get what I want I went for it. Now it's something that isn't a priority for me but you never know I still might decide to have them done.
I do think though that may people who have cosmetic surgery do it for the wrong reasons and may actually need other types of help rather than surgery, although as Mallock has said it does help some people with low self esteem etc.
I've considered it, I am still considering it, I've never been happy with mine and it does get very waring when the media is full of images of women with huge boobs. What puts me off is the fact that they don't last for ever, they'll need replacing, there's too much risk for me. Low self esteme is cripling at times and people who don't have it have now idea of how debilitating it can be. But there's more to a person than a pair of boobs, real or fake, so a friend of mine keeps telling me.

There is indeed and he/she is so right. But on the body/self esteem note, it's funny how our perceptions of ourselves differ greatly from how others perceive us isn't it? dunno We have yet to say hello in person but I saw you at Bristol and you are not just beautiful but are gorgeously shaped and totally in proportion kiss
And an excellent personality to boot ( she even likes prawns!! :shock: ) :kiss: H-x

I have had implants and uplift, my reasons were simply that I wanted bigger boobs, I went to a few consultations and found a surgeon I was happy with, I was quite ok with my boobs and was a bit shocked when they all said I needed an uplift and It took a while to come round to the idea, the surgery was painful as I had implants under the chest muscle and the recovery was longer than was suggested, also the scars were bigger than I expected but I am now healing well and they are dropping more into a nice shape rather than the stuck on look that I first had, it wasnt really what I expected it be even though I did loads of research but in the end It turned out right, I am still very shy as to showing them in the flesh due to the scars but am sure they will fade as time goes on, my confidence has grown in my daily life because of the surgery, I would just advise anyone to think long and hard and make sure you do lots of research before comititing to surgery but there again I dont think anyone really takes it lightlyxx

i agree... however, if you are not content with things and its getting you down then do what you feel best suits you, but proceed with caution.
I had augmentation 14 years ago. I had never really developed in the breast department and had very nice nipples but nothing to sit them on. I was deeply affected by lack of confidence and would wear huge tee shirts on the beach and just about anywhere else I could get away with.
I was an NHS patient after a wait of around 4 years. I had saline implants as the silicone was considered at that time as not as safe as previously thought. I remember being a little disappointed that the implants were not bigger when the surgeon showed them to me, but was assured that because I am only 5ft 2 and was at that time only weighing about 7 stone they were the right size for me.
They were put in via incisions under each arm and the subsequent scars have caused no problems and healed very quickly. My self confidence went through the roof as a result of the op and I have never looked back. I had one child before the implants and have had and breastfed 2 children since with no problems.
I found a small lump in one of my breasts last year and during the investigations (mammogram and scan) the lump was found to be fatty tissue and they took the opportunity to show me the implants and tell me that they were still perfect even after 13 years. I had been worrying so this was very welcome news.
They look normal, they feel normal and they are not sagging for obvious reasons which is a bonus. The only slight draw back I can think of for the whole procedure was that I had a little nerve damage to one of my nipples, but strangely enough the other nipple seems to make up for the loss of sensation in it's partner :twisted: (anyone who's interested. It's the left one :P )
So... for me it was a success and something that I might do again if ever I am in the right financial position.
