Plastic Surgery - Would You Have It?

[Earlybird]

I know several people who have had discreet cosmetic surgery procedures (not Jordan style!), and they look great. They are not particularly vain people either. Each had their own reasons - breast/tummy work after childbirth/nursing, and one woman who had liposuction and an eyelift after her divorce. These women viewed it as personal maintenance and something that was done to make them feel better about their physical appearance. They now look "fresher", and all are happy with the results. No regrets.

Would you have it done, and if so, what would you do?

I meant ?????

That means im happy and NO-ONE is going to have the satisfaction of winding me up tonight.

no wind ups at all just the way I feel about this

If I ever start to look like my mother, then I'm in there for a full facelift! Or perhaps a face graft - you know, get someone else's face grafted onto mine? Penelope Cruz. 'Course I'd have to murder her first......!

thanks nightowl, then we can both be daft/vain together. I must admit having had a full range of boob sizes form 34c pre-baby to 34E while breast feeding to now 32A ( don't laugh too loud) I think i was happiest with them at around C cup size, not too big to be a pain and still small enought to get nice lingerie. whlist we are on the subject how does everyone feel about maternity underwear? Big unsexy bras and knickers, yucky. Do manufacturers out there think that pregnant women are not aloud to wear sexy or provocative underwear, what is it hey youare pregnant not sexy, well I for one felt extrememly sexy when I was pregnant and was really peeved that getting decent underwear was a complete pain wheeesh gripe over.

I never wore maternity underwear. Cant stand maternity bras... yuck. its hard enough for me to get nice underwear anyway without having to resort to those nasties! (i was very naughty and wore underwired bras all the way through)

I did go for the horrid bras, but only so i could look back and think bloody hell did I have boobs that big!! I avoided materniy knickers like the plague, i just bought ordinary cotton ones and wore them below the bump. What about the suggestio of wearing those horribke paper ones when you come out of hospital. Like excuse me I have just gone through god know how much pain etc (advocate natural birth, though I did question this idea mid labour, rather forceably according to DH, I actually told the nurse to get me some f*ing pain relief!, she did not)so i am damn sure I want the comfort of proper knickers thank you not some paper crap that feel like sandpaper rubbing on my now rather tender nether regions.

The thought of paper knickers fills me with horror i must admit!

i haven't come accross many mums complaining about saggy breasts after having their babies. i'm sure it's a common issue but nobody talks about it and i never feel like discussing this with anyone i know. i breastfed my daughter for 1 year and my breasts look really bad now. it upsets me a lot because i used to have perfect breasts and could always wear a t-shirt without a bra and go topless on the beach (they were not too big, but i'm slim and they looked great because they were so firm and wouldn't move much) whereas now, they are empty, very low and look awful.plus strech marks on them. even if i wear pretty undewear, when i take it off they're still there. can't stand it. so i might have some sort of surgery, more like a lift than a breast enlargment, but am afraid of surgeries so i won't do it for a while. but i've heard of something called Beautytek, which is a firming treatment for breasts (and other areas) and it works by delivering electrical impulses to specific accupuncture poits and makes your body re-energize itself leading to a firmer and lifted chest. I haven't researched the subject yet, so am not sure of the accuracy of the above info, but does anybody else know or have had this treatment? I might start a thread on breasts after pregnancy...

thanks branster, that is exactly what happended to mine and to top it all they shrank. I was a nice size 10 34c bust which was nice and frim and pert as i did plenty weights and exercise. now they are just empty lifeless flabby amd 32a fried egg size, i would have them lifted and back to a c cup. I was lucky that i could wear vest tops and no bra ( i hate the strappy look. Thats the thing about breast feeding though great fro baby, great for weight loss not so great for the boobs though.

ooop excuse the spelling mistakes in last post

id be interested in anything to lift mine!

Not read the post at all - definately lypo and botox!
