Just looking for some advice from those of you who've had a breast augmentation. I have a consultation next month with a view to getting surgery in around February/March next year - I'm wanting to go for only a small implant and over the muscle as I'm looking for volume and shape rather than a massive size increase.
I've chosen to go with a company who my friend had hers done with last year as she had a really good experience and I know they are trustworthy. The issue I'm having is that although my consultation is in Leeds which is 1 hour away from me, the surgery will be in London. My friend has said she will travel with me and we will stay in a hotel for at least the first couple of days, but that will still mean a 2.5 hour train ride on day 3 or 4 and I'm not sure how feasible that would be?
I know everyone is different - my friend seemed to really struggle with her recovery but I'm not sure if that was due to her never having any sort of surgery before and also having much larger implants and smaller breasts to start with. I've had several surgeries and have usually coped well with general anaesthetic and post-op pain but have obviously never had anything like this before. I noted that they only advise against driving for a week which really surprised me
I also need to take annual leave rather than sick leave with it cosmetic procedure - I'd planned for a week but not sure if this will really be long enough? It would be ten days after surgery including weekends that I'd be due back. I can still work from home at the moment with my laptop on my knee so won't involve raising my arms or anything like that
Any advice would be greatly appreciated - thanks
