Insider Tips: 5 things I wish I knew before a Breast Augmentation

We had the privilege of sitting down with Josephine, a recent breast augmentation patient at Manchester Private hospital, to delve into the five things she wishes she knew before undergoing her transformative journey. Her candid insights and tips offer invaluable guidance to anyone considering the same path

Let’s dive into them shall we!

Size Isn't Everything: 

Josephine confesses her initial obsession with choosing the perfect implant size, only to realize that the difference between options was minuscule. "I spent so long deciding between 275CC and 300CC, it’s like fretting over a teaspoon of sugar," she laughs. This revelation eased her decision-making process and might just do the same for you.

Embrace the Unexpected:

Expectations versus reality—Josephine thought she wanted a natural teardrop shape but found herself enamoured with the initial round, high-profile look post-surgery. "I was surprised by how much I loved it!". Remember, sometimes the best results come when we're open to unexpected outcomes.

Scar Care Matters:

Scarring concerns? Josephine discovered the power of LIPOELASTIC scar gel, a game-changer in her recovery journey. "I wish I knew about it sooner’’ - It's the little discoveries like this that make a big difference in post-op comfort and confidence.

Bra Support is Essential:

From going braless to embracing a whole new bra wardrobe, Josephine learned firsthand the importance of daily bra wear post-surgery. "Investing in supportive bras made all the difference," she advises. Don't underestimate the power of proper support for your new assets.

Body Confidence is Personal:

While Josephine hoped her breast augmentation would boost her body confidence, she acknowledges that true self-love extends beyond physical changes. "It's about embracing yourself holistically," she shares. ‘’I hoped before my operation that it would help me love my figure more than I already did. I am quite curvy, and I felt that new boobs might balance out my hips and I would feel more confident. I feel more confident overall, but of course, it hasn’t changed the way my stomach and hips sit at all!’’.
