Breast Augmentation

After having my 2nd Child my breasts have gone so far South I dont even like my husband looking at them. I had a consultation to get a price ect. I was just wondering if there are any other moms out there that have already had the procedure done, if it was worth the pain and money to go thru with it. I am done having kids for good so I am ready to get my body back to a more attractive state for my own self esteem.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Well I went to 2 different Dr's I was told I need a Masteopexy "Lift" before augmentation because they sag to much after losing all my baby weight so I cant afford that 10,000 procedue anytime soon. Guess I will invest in some really good push up bras!

I talked to a surgeon about breast implants andit something I think i'm going to try. I was told if you did still want to have kids or changed your mind about having more later, that the best way to go would be getting the implants under the muscle. They said they will stay in good shape and you won't have to worry about them looking abnormal after a pregnancy. But like others said make sure you use all the resources available to you. Check the doctor's refrences and make sure he is the right doctor for you.

I know how you feel, I too seem to have lost what used to be my best asset. And the only reason I have not had them done is because I am not quite done having my kids yet. I am axiouse to see what kind of responses you get!! I know A lot of people who have had them done and are VERY happy with the results.

Good luck

Hi, My name is M.. While I have not had any surgery, my best friend did. After her 2nd child she decided that she wanted a breast lift - no implants. She nursed both her children (which are 2 years apart) and hated the shape her breasts were in. She was a little bigger than DD and she was concerned about the size being too big, so she opted to just have the lift and some liposuction just around the armpits. I am completely jealous! Her "new" breasts look PHENOMENAL!!!!! Since she doesn't have implants, they are still completely natural, just higher and perkier than they were before, but still a full C. She says it was completely worth it and wouldn't hesitate to do it again. I am now very seriously contemplating doing it. My suggestion is that you ask around and make sure you get a couple of opinions from different doctors. If you're comfortable with the doctor, then it'll make your decision easier. Good Luck!!!

Hi S....I had mine done quite some time ago, but my reasons were that being almost 5'9 and having a small A cup chest, I felt like a little boy. My advice to you is to really do the research. And just because someone you know went to a specific doctor and hers look great, doesnt mean yours will come out the same way. When you go in for a consult, make sure your doctor takes his time in thoroughly answering ALL of your questions, and you dont feel like your being rushed. Also, opt to get the implants under the muscle because it will lesson the chance of rippling (seeing the wrinkles of the bag under the skin) And take your time in the healing process, I couldnt move my arms for a month, not even able to squeeze a water bottle when I was thirsty. Yes, it was painful, and when I started to feel "antsy' I went to take a shower and thought I could get my arms up to wash my hair, only to cause a hematoma (bleeding) in the left one, had to go back to the doctor the next day, and had to have another surgery to drain the blood that was pooled up in the pocket of my left implant. NOT fun- but I dont regret my decision at all, not a bit! It turned out okay and I was fine, but just take it easy afterward, and do your research first. Best of luck to you!

I had mine done after nursing 2 kids for 1 year each. It was wonderful! I recommend researching doctor's in your area. Go for consultations with more than one. I was so uncomfortable with my "saggy boobs" and now I feel very comfortable in a bihini again! Good luck to you!

Hi S.,
I had a lift and augmentation done in March and I love it! The pain was minimal, I also had a tummy tuck done and that pain was really minimal too! I had a bit of lipo done on my outer thighs...that's where the pain was, it was awful! I'm so much happier now that my breasts don't hang low and I'm very happy with my silicone implants! Any ??'s, let me know!!!
