Breast surgery, tummy tuck or both?

Cost is a factor. Yes, I can afford both, but it would be tight, (not depriving children of essentials or even holidays tight, but like, I wouldn't have much left in savings).

I am not happy with my breasts and they have always been one of my better features, so I'm miffed about this.

I've never had a flat tummy, even before dcs. I would love a flat tummy, but it isn't my natural shape iyswim, so my instinct is to prioritise the boobs!

I'm considering reduction or maybe uplift.

Or neither! And work on body confidence, diet and exercise etc (already doing this).

I'd go for the tummy tuck. Big boobs are difficult to dress and impossible!l with a big belly! If you had a flat yummy you'd open up a whole range of clothes that are currently out of bounds.

I'm in the same boat too op, and I'm leaning towards both but it will mean pushing back to allow me to save some more. Which is hard, because I'm really feeling down about my stomach now, my eyes zone in on it whatever I'm wearing and it makes me look bigger than I am, so it's affecting my day to day life.

My boobs are a mess but easier to hide!

Tummy tuck would be my first priority. But my boobs have dropped too, but I wouldn't want them made bigger - just hoiked up. I'm a B/C cup and that's plenty big enough for me.

I'm a 34FF, so it would either be an uplift or reduction, not implants. Sorry, I didn't clarify that in my op.

I do like having bigger boobs as it makes me look as if I have good proportions (ie tummy, although far from flat, doesn't look bigger than boobs iyswim). Maybe I do need to consider both. It's rather a lot of money and I need to lose weight and work on toning up before I go for it, which I am doing.

Consultation is booked though 😬.
