A boob job for sure, at present my boobs are scared, really scared, I lay down and they run and hide under my armpits. pre-baby a happy perky, firm 34b, post baby and post breastfeeding, I'm lucky if I get a 32a bra to stay put.
That's the only thing, all of the other scars on my body remind me of where I've been in my life, I'd just prefer to hold on to them.

The only thing I've ever really wanted done was to fix my teeth. I have a huge overbite that can only be fully corrected by breaking my jaw and re-aligning it (I've already had braces). THEN I'd have to have plastic surgery to fix my chin because it would be jutting out too far. And that would just get me back to looking like ME! Only I could eat corn on the cob!!
edit: and after reading stuff like what cali posted ^^^ I don't ever want to have kids!

For some reason, my boobs went right back to where they were pre-kids....it doesn't happen to every woman that they 'deflate'. I've been 34c-36c since I was 13 and the only real difference at this point in life is they aren't quite as close to my chin. LOL

Whew! But what a crap shoot, you know NG? Though it would be interesting to know from the TFP ladies who have had kids, what percentage went back and what percentage didn't. I'll have to search and see if that's already been discussed.

If I had the money right now, I'd go for cosmetic dentistry, removal of some moles, laser eye surgery, and something to fix the frown lines between my eyes. Other than those, I think I can work the rest into shape and be quite happy.
Sure, there are some who go overboard, some who feel it's succumbing to societal pressures, or esteem problems, but overall, it's a personal choice. You're the one who lives in your skin, so you should be the one to decide how you'd like to live in that skin. |

It's funny the ones who answered they have no need for it...I wonder it they will feel the same at 40 after breastfeeding a couple of kidlets? Maybe they'll be the lucky ones whose breasts bounced right back.
Mine didn't....and I'm seriously thinking of a breast lift (not implants 'cos I'm happy with their size in general) and a bit of lipo on my tummy and thighs. I've just emailed for the quote tonight....

I don't think i'd ever do it. The only place i'd consider it it my breasts, but that would only be to lift them and make them just a tad bigger...ideally i wouldn't want anyone to know they were fake unless i told them/let them feel. Like most women I have some places that I don't particularly like, but they are my own and make me special

I'm seriously looking to get a breast enlargement now. I sent emails out to a few docs around Salt Lake. I also wonder if they do any financing or if I would have to get my own. So yeah, I'm totally ready to go under the knife.

I want to have surgery on my saggy eyelids. It's hereditary. My father and my aunt had the same problem. I remember when my aunt had surgery on her eyelids. We all thought she was nuts to go to such extremes. Oh well, time does tell..........grant that I may not criticize my aunt until I have lived with her eyelids.......

Ok guys, I need a little support I'm going in for a breat agumentation on November 12th. I'm going to go from an A cup to a C cup. I'm kinda nervous, mostly because of my nipple rings. They have to come out for the surgery and I'm afraid that they'll close up during the two hour procedure. I'm going to call the doc tomorrow and see if I can keep them in if they were plastic. Any advice about the whole thing would be appreciated
So about the procedure: Going from an A to a C He's going in though the nipple to minimize scarring I'm going to be "sedated" but not "put under" because it's about $500 cheaper

Never had boob job, but the sedation is a good choice - coming out of full anesthetic is horrid... follow their instructions on eating/drinking before the surgery to the letter.. .Seriously...
Congrationlations on your decision, You have my full support on this decision. If it makes you happy and makes you feel better about yourself, then you do what you gotta do - -just remember you are beautiful no matter what. I wouldn't worry so much about your nipple rings - if you wanted to you could have them redone later - once you've healed... Good luck!

Thanks for the support Maleficent (and congrats ) I talked to my doc about the nipple rings, and he said that there cannot be anything in my nipples because of measuring and stuff, so I went to talk to my peircer and he said that most women experience a change in the angle of the peircing after surgury so it would be best to just let them heal and get them re peirced.

I have been considering getting plastic surgery tummy tuck and/or lypo, but it would be for me because I am not totally happy with my body right now. It wouldnt be my first option, but I workout almost everyday and not much has changed so it may be an alternative.

A few words from one who has taken the plunge.
After pregnancy I was left with a a tummy that I thought was hideous. My ex husband said it didn't bother him but it bothered the hell out of me. This troubled me even more after we divorced especially as I piled on some weight for a while. After dithering for a year I put myself on a diet and fitness regime and regained my normal weight and some improved tone but I was still very inhibited by my saggy tum so I saw my doctor who found me a good local cosmetic surgeon . Having decided to go ahead I trotted off to the bank to arrange a loan. The look on the young (male) account managers face made me smile. When I told him what it was for....he blushed crimson, gulped and then processed the arrangement with some haste. Three years on and I have never had any regrets. My old confidence is back and I am able to enjoy being naked again. Make no mistake there is a subtantial scar but it has faded considerably and I would do it again without doubt. As for getting the cosmetic surgery bug it's true I have toyed with the idea of having my face lifted but I probably won't...it's not that bad and is ageing 'normally' unlike my tummy which looked like it belonged to a ninety year old. |

Well, the breast lift would be around AU$8k, so dunno about that one. Reckon I'll go for a little lipo around the tummy and thighs. I'll let you know how it goes.

I actually just had a breast reduction 6 weeks ago. I am 5'4" at 120 lbs and I was sporting 34DDDs before. I had neck surgery 5 yrs ago and other spine abnormalities so my doc helped me get the proceedure approved and paid for by my insurance provider. I am now wearing a 34C sports bra and it's almost hard to believe I can wear a tank top or swimsuit without maximum support. My breathing is better and I can already tell a difference in the strain on my neck & shoulders. It has been semi difficult in the pain deptartment but it gets better everyday. I would do it over again in a second.
I would also consider having a tummy tuck and a brow lift in the future. The main thing is that I would be doing this for "me". It matters what "I" see when I look in the mirror but if someone is content without plastic surgery then that is even better. My hats off to you.

It is very interesting to read this thread and see/read what people think allegedly annonyously. I must say from being on a plastic surgery rotation for three months as part of my surgical rotation I was, and still am, stunned by plastic surgery. It is addictive.
it must attract that sort of person I guess, but no one has just one thing done. First the eyes, then the nose, chin, face, then redo the nose etc. Liposuction is even more amazing and barbaric to do. And all the tissue that can be removed is equivalent to two litres of tissue. And almost all of it is on a cash for service basis. Now I must temper this with all the good work plactics guys do with hands, autoaccidents, cleft palates etc. that is miraculous. Bottom line, once you start it is hard to stop. |

I'd have tummy work. I'm extremely self consiouc about my stomach since I had my son. My breasts went back to normal but even after losing most of my baby weight, my tummy still looks horrible. Other than that I'm pretty happy with myself. And hello, StormBerlin, from a fellow SLC'er!!!
