AIBU to consider a boob job after my boobs have given up the ghost…?

Have they given up the ghost due to children and breastfeeding? If so give them a bit of a chance.
They do come back it might take a few years, but they do come back

Mine were quite empty post babies and I assumed they'd stay that way, but 10 years on (and a bit of weight gain) and they're not anymore!

Same but I’m 36! Best thing I’ve ever done for myself. 😍

Wow, that's some makeover! Did you have that all done in one surgery? I hope the recovery continues to go well.

I recently had an uplift for similar reasons (no implants) and I feel so much better. Sometimes I feel bad that I have 'wasted money' (and could have shopped around for a cheaper surgeon) but I already am seeing the benefits and wished I had done it earlier.

If I was you, I'd time a surgery for after Christmas so by the time the nice weather rolls round you are fully recovered!

Go for it. I’m 56 and 5 weeks post op mommy makeover. I has breast implants, an extended tummy tuck and liposuction. Best decision ever!

Oh, I know how you feel! It took a couple of years for mine to fill out a bit again, but also for me to get comfortable with the change to them, having felt quite unhappy for a while. But I'm perfectly happy now. They don't bother me at all, and while they're different to what they were pre-baby, I actually really like how they look/feel.

So personally I'd advise not rushing into it (if it's all new-ish), although it seems like pp have given some good advice if you do decide to go ahead 🙂 Whatever you go with, I hope you feel happy about yourself at the end of it!

ETA: Whoops, I see you say it's been a few years since you had your youngest, so it's not new-ish!!

Just put enough money aside for multiple surgeries in your lifetime in that case then.

I had mine lifted and small implant 10 years ago, I love them
mine were always a horrible shape and I had always hated them, I did it 💯 for me, not for meb
i used an NHS surgeon who also had a private clinic at the Spire

A standard general anesthetic on a fit and healthy person is safer than a trip on the motorway.

You're not being unreasonable. If you can comfortably afford it and you're fit and healthy for the surgery, do your research and book a consultation with a reputable surgeon. Go in with an open mind, obviously you should feel listened to and not pressured in any way.

How long is it since you had your child and lost the weight? If it's fairly soon, i might suggest waiting a year or two at least to see how things settle, you may get some fullness back. Even if you do regain some shape, you may still want the surgery of course, but you'll have a better idea of what the end result will look like bc your body will have 'settled'. Pregnancy is a HUGE thing to go through and it takes much longer than we think for our bodies to recover fully. Also, make sure you're not restricing your diet too much and getting plenty of healthy fats from things like fish, nuts and avocado.

I had my third just before i was 40, it took 3 years for my boobs to fill out from a couple of sad, loose bags (i was very seriously thinking about fat transfer surgery), but now they are almost back to how they were - not perfect, but i don't want surgery anymore.

My surgeon, does NHS work too and seems to have an excellent reputation as I did loads of research, also said only replace if a problem develops and if not leave well alone.

Do it.Make sure your surgeon on registered under BAAPS and ideally does nhs work too.
I used Mr Morritt at Claremont Hospital and he was amazing.

I’d say go for it. I had one done when I was 42, so not spring chicken. I’m 52 now and I still get such a rush oh happiness when I look at them, after longing for having it done for as long as I can remember. Don’t listen to horror stories, it’s the same as birth stories, some don’t go to plan and end in death, but the mayority have happy endings. Good luck! And my surgeon said they won’t need replacing , only if problems arise.

I was told the same, also had the lifetime guarantee documents and I had to have them replaced. Very naughty of any surgeon to say that but I didn't know any better at the time. They physically don't last a lifetime unfortunately due to CC, bottoming out, rupture, pocket deformity, implant recalls etc lots of reasons. This should be clearly explained but some surgeons don't incase it puts women off.

I would go for the fat transfer. No implant illness then

You only need to have them replaced if they rupture or you’re unhappy with them.

Fat grafting is expensive and doesn’t have a great success rate. My surgeon said I could do this as, where I’ve lost 4 stone, I don’t have much breast tissue left to cover the implants. However, he said it would add around 2.5K to the cost of surgery and only 50% of the grafted fat actually stays in place/takes. The other half is wasted. He suggested I see how I get on and it’s something I can come back to.

I mean I literally have them and was told very clearly that you no longer need to replace them - in fact I have the lifetime guarantee documents still for the implants themselves so....

If you genuinely want it, can afford it, and will feel better about yourself as a result then go for it.

I had mine done over 12 years ago and still love them and think they look great. Research a good surgeon in the UK, my surgeon wouldn't do anything too big for my frame. I had over the muscle, I BF after having them done but theyre still so perky, it honestly gives me a little 😁 when I see them every morning.

Obvs BI illness is a worry, and you need them redone. The only thing is there is no more front sleeping again haha

Why would vanity be stronger than a surgical procedure where you could die? Each to their own but I just don’t understand it at all.
would you feel the need to cut your breasts and fill them with stuff if you lived alone on a desert island?

Im due to get my breast implants in 3 weeks. I have talked myself in and out of it for so long ! I am having one last consultation next week to be 100 percent sure and im also going to ask about fat transfer if it would be a better/safer option for me . Im petrified of going under.
