[Closed] Boob jobs

😆

I can't believe nobody has said it yet.

I suspect this thread obviously needs pictures.

I think you'll find some good advice on the (sadly renamed with an extra A) [url= http://baaps.org.uk/ ]BAAPS[/url] site

From very very limited experience.

They didn't feel right in the hand.

Mine are fine.

Is it a self-esteem issue?

Probably, she just needs a lift.

Is it a self-esteem issue?

I think so. She's not one of these needy, insecure, body haters. It's just this one thing. She'd like to be able to wear certain clothes, dresses, bikinis etc.. and she feels like she can't so she covers up all the time.

Fair enough but would say that there's a huge choice of under-pinnings these days so perhaps getting properly measured and fitted for these could help. Is she becoming slightly obsessive about this?

If she's doing it for the right reasons then it might just make her happier.
I'm not a fan either though. No jiggling, which is their most interesting feature.

This gets good reports:

There's nothing to measure. Or under pin.

Oh no, I've said too much.

I Had a girlfriend a few years ago who had sort of the opposite issue, she had a particularly ample bosom, and was adamant she wanted a reduction...

It did affect her in as much as having a constantly bad back, having to buy pricey Bra's engineered to carry the load (seriously), not really being able to get into various sports or activities where where they got in the way, plus she tended to view most of the attention she got from blokes as pretty negative... Cos it was TBF.

Might just be worth pointing out the various downsides of being a "well endowed" woman to your friend OP... But let her decide after that.

Only she can decide, just support her with whatever decision she makes.

Find a suegeon by recommendation, go and visit a few and ask for examples of his/her work, they will have a book of photos at the least. Ask around for local recommendations from anyone you know locally who has had it done, or any doctors you know.

The results are very good these days and it's sometimes very difficult to tell (especially if it's been done well).

Bear in mind that this may not be a single procedure as the implants change over time/occasionallly late complications arise and redo/rejig is necessary.

Where are you based, and you may get some local reccomendations....

...just support her...

Just point out that there have been some seriously sexy women (if that's the right word) with little to no bust, like Nicole Kidman.

Maybe could explore other ways of building self-esteem - maybe the gym or something similar to re-proportion her figure?

Couldn't ever get involved with someone who's not comfy with themselves, any kind of non medical cosmetic surgery is the biggest turn off

Yes, the wife had hers done about 10 years ago at the transitions clinic in Wood Green London. These were the PIP ones that had the issues. Hers ruptured so she had them replaced and so far they are fine.
It makes a huge difference to her psychologically as she was not happy before. There are no visible scars to speak of and they feel great imo. It has made a big difference to how she feels when she's out and we no longer have the I can't wear anything issue. I can't speak for any of the other clinics but the Transform were ok. Its not cheap really... I think we paid about 4 grand which I cringed at the time but all those years on it seems like money well spent. My best mates wife had hers done at about the same time and she has had no issues that we know of and is very pleased.

I know a few people who have had them done, if they are done well it's hard to tell if they have been done, but they're not without their drawbacks.

Four grand? You could buy a bike for that...etc.

My ex wanted them at one point, my feeling was that it would be better learning to love what you've got, as once you have them done there will just be something else wrong to be unhappy/self conscious about

She got rid of me instead 😆 - though to be fair she's never had them done and chatting about it since she reckons I was right after all.

I've known a few ladies who've done such. As an end users, it doesn't float my boat particularly but it seems to be that the smaller the enhancement, the better the result. From virtually nothing to a bit of something is better than from a bit of something to too much of something.

Can relate. Sick of taping this thing to my leg.

[can of worms] it's OK for you guys, you're not under the pressure that some women can be. Perfect body equals perfect life as does perfect hair etc etc. It's self-esteem that needs to be worked on, ideally at home but definitely in school. Everybody is good at something but many never work out what that is.

That's a seriously saggy manboob, you should get lipo 😛

I understand why the person involved wants it but I'm trying not to pick a side.

Slap in the middle?

I feel ashamed to be a bloke when I see this stuff...only reason women have boob jobs is because of the incessant bombardment of a western pressure for women to look 'nice' for men. Jeez, it makes me sad....

I have no personal experience of close female friends having or wanting enhancement, or, for that matter, reduction, but I do see it as very much a personal matter, which can make a big difference to a woman's self-esteem.
Women with small boobs can be just as sexy as those with larger ones, Keira Knightly being a particular example, and I belong to the 'small but perfectly formed' school of thought, however, I remember watching a programme about this, and there was one girl who was desperately unhappy with her figure, her boobs were very droopy and flat, but after having implants she was transformed, her bust wasn't huge, but she could wear nice clothes without needing expensive support bras, and to see her face after the wraps came off was very, if you'll excuse the pun, uplifting!
I'd give her all the support she needs, (s****), and let her do whatever she feels she needs to do.
They're her boobs, after all. 😀

Oh no, I'm going to rant...

What's even worse is this oppression of women has been so ingrained, the vast majority of men and women have internalised it as the norm... And cannot even see how shocking society treats people to make them want to pay for surgery because they're not 'right'...

Sorry, rant over. Going for a ride.. Beautiful out there eh...

Had a little liaison with a young lady who'd had them done - seemed fine to me if a little on the firm side.

A very close friend of mine had hers done about 10 years ago, and she has been very happy with the result - she described her boobs as like small droopy poached eggs. Unfortunately I haven't seen them in the flesh, but she looks great in dresses she once wasn't able to wear.

I've a few friends that have had them done. Some are good and some are not my kind of thing; too artificial.

One friend lost sensation in the nipples. That sounds like WAY TOO MUCH OF A RISK to me.

As above, if she wants them and understands all surgery carries real risk, go for it. It's her body, no-one else's.

I close friend of mine had hers "done" a few years ago, she wanted an enlargement and some reshaping - I don't know the exact details, but she's got really into the gym bunny thing and lost a little of the weight she had to lose and tonned up which left her bust "like a beagles ears".

The op went perfectly but she got a slight infection afterwards which meant a few more weeks off work than planned.

She was delighted with the results, but took some convincing and explanation of basic physics that she'd 'got heavier' and got 'gained weight' during her time away from her beloved box gym. She tried to get back down to her pre-op weight at first...

No, I never saw, touched or smelt them - but the reaction of our female friends who did was mixed, some thought they looked odd on her slight frame, some said they looked great - but none thought they looked real, but that wasn't her goal. Once things settled down she was happy with them.

We get loads of removed implants at work, they are either gritty, hard or oozing with the stickiest substance I've ever encountered. All the ones we see are those that have ruptured or reacted to the breast adipose tissue.
I'd advise against it if it weren't for the fact it helps keep me in a job

This is quite a bizarre thread, as is to be expected!

In danger of making a sensible post, but it's not simply a people being viewed as 'not right' and oppression etc etc. I guess it's fairly easy to reach that conclusion, what with the internet seeming to play more on a picture of a person, BUT..

..it's a lot more than that, to the women in question normally, and goes a lot deeper than someone with a C cup wanting to go to a DD because "big tits are great".

It's a confidence thing, borne from any number of issues, including peers, tiny tiny boobs (as perceived) or simple 'saggy' (it's funny for blokes; can't imagine it's so funny for women) - self-confidence is the most important thing to anyone's well-being.

If advancements in surgery mean there's a £4k solution for that, then it's difficult to argue against that choice.

Anyhow, enough of that sensibility.

Here is a picture of a pair of implants. Found them at work beside the rifle scope

What's the corpse in a bodybag all about ? 😯

Same place as the implants and scope.

It's not real 🙄

All those point you make bearnecessitues...I.e. Reasons for...where do you think they come from... the insecurities etc? They come from a society that objetivies women and paints a portrait of the 'normal' woman..splashed across media and film. Here's an example..fat men is kind of exceptable on TV/film. How many fat women can you think of who are famous? Considering we're supposed to be an obese nation isn't it odd to.not see obese women on TV? It's all a part of culture that portarays thinsgs a certain way.

And I'd one doesn't 'fit in' they feel abnormal.

So any of the complex reasons are borne out of this. You cannot separate the individual from society or culture, we are society... So if thats our norms that's how we behave and see reality...

You're picking out one reason, one which may have legs, probably does TBH.

I'm just saying that's not always the case, and whatever the case, right or wrong, if it gives someone self-confidence for the few years we have as Zombie-maggots, I can't see a problem.

Feel free to tackle the larger issues, but not sure you, or anyone can. In the meantime, let people live a life that makes them happy, whatever that may mean.

Hey bear necessities - I wasn't trying to pick on your points (if it felt like that) just using them for a platform for myself i guess.

I do tackle the larger issues in many ways - maybe I shouldn't rant so heavily on these forums though - most people just want it to be light hearted...

Not men in general. Stop stereotyping us.

If a woman is getting implants to please men, it is because she is doing it to please that section of men who like big breasts, not all of us.
