'I'm glad I got it done but wish it didn't mess with my own self-opinion.'
to share their cosmetic procedure stories. Here are some of the thought-provoking responses we received."I had a bilateral breast reduction , and it was the best decision! My mom had had one at 40, so it was always in the back of my mind that one day I might as well. I had it done at 35, and it’s made such a positive impact on my life. I went from a G cup to a C, and my back doesn’t hurt, it’s easier to shop for clothes, and my posture has improved.
"My advice would be to: 1) Take the time to really listen to your surgeon – learn the potential risks and what having the surgery could mean for your future , 2) Only ever do it for yourself, and do it in your own time and on your terms, and 3) People on forums and even people you know might go on about ‘boob greed’ and advise anyone who asks to go for the biggest implant offered. This is not the best decision for every person.
"While I’m thrilled with the outcome , there was a week where I thought my vanity had cost me my ability to speak, read to my future children, and sing in the car. … That wasn’t easy to come to terms with, and I would have to think quite a bit before having more work done.""I had a breast reduction two months ago. I went from an I cup to somewhere around a C/D cup. I had thought about getting one for a few years but finally decided to go forward with it.
"I never liked having boobs and very much wanted that surgery for a long time, but I felt off because this part of me was gone. I was not expecting phantom boob sensations, but that’s what I got. The recovery was humbling, though. I’ve always had body image issues, but seeing myself all bruised and bloated after surgery forced me to look at things differently, and I’ve been a little kinder to myself ever since. Overall, it was a great experience. I feel more like myself than I ever have.
