My surgeon has suggested that I get a boob lift and implants. I not sure if I should get the implants. What is everyone opinion on this?

Kate - how do you compare surgeries from a pain and recovery perspective?

I met with the ps two weeks ago. I'm waiting to hear if insurance will cover mine. I lost 87lbs and went from a 36j/k to a 32HH - so smaller to be sure but I'm still all boobs.

It depends what outcome you want. What size are you now, what size do you want to be?

Both have been fine. I have some necrosis but the hospital have been great and are dealing with it at the moment. I had quite a lot done at once, that and my age meant that I didn't bounch back as easy as if I were in my 20's.

All the surgeons seem to think I would only be happy with implants I did not want the hassle or the expense of having to replace them every 6 to 10 years. Mine have been reconstructed I went from an F to a B or C cup. Find a PS that listens to you.

This is what I'm afraid of, still being big after a loss. I am a 40H (although I'm sure I could go higher since my bras are a bit snug now). I'd love to be a C or D. Had enough of ginormous boobs.

Same here. Once I met with the surgeon I am so ready to just do this. Ideally I'd be finished and recovery by the first part of April. My insurance usually takes about three weeks for approval. I sure hope I can get it done.

I was told that if you're happy with the size you are when wearing a bra (boobs all propped up) then you only need a lift (they rearrange your own tissue), if you think they are too small in a bra... then you need implants.


My time is NOW!

How long after you reach goal do you have to wait to get your boobs done? I'm currently a 42i and cannot wait to have these puppies done. Some plastic surgeons did a presentation about post-WLS procedures at a support group and they said something about patients having to stabilize at goal for a while (a year? I can't recall what they said). It seemed like you first needed to prove that you wouldn't gain the weight back
