Hi,

Yesterday I went and had a consultation for a breast uplift and later on today I am meeting with the surgeon who will go through the actual surgery, results and recovery in more detail.

I like to hear REAL experiences! After a huge weight gain and even bigger weight loss thrown in with pregnancy and months of breast feeding lets just say my 'twins' are looking a bit sad :'( In terms of size I went from a nice perky 32DD/E then ballooned to a 36H and now settled in at a droopy 32F/G. I dont think I want implants, I just want them putting back where they belong!

Is there anybody on here who has had this procedure? If so how was it for you?

(Sorry for the TMI)

    I had the exact same issue when I gained weight and hated looking at myself. I had an uplift and, quite honestly, it was one of the best things I have done. They look natural - not right up at my chin - but back where they should be

    It was a bit painful afterwards, although I have had lipo-sculpture on the bottoms of my legs and that was WAY worse!

    There are a couple of downsides - there are scars and a slight loss of sensation to the nipple but they are a small price to pay as I feel so comfortable now

    Hope this helps :)

    Cool for you! I'm assuming you will be reduced as well? Enjoy the freedom from flopping!
