Explant b4 hols

kittymeow · 05-20-2009, 02:31 AM

Hello this may seem like a very silly question but I dont know what to do! I am having my implants taken out in June and not having them replaced for 3 months as I'm going a little smaller with an uplift. Im going on holiday in August which means I will have very saggy boobs for hols (my boobs were tuberous and breastfed before I had implants) I have grade 3 ptosis my surgeon has said. I have ordered surgical tape as Im going to attempt to hold my boobs in place under my clothes and bikini! This probably sounds silly ! What I was wondering was if I replace the tape every day would it withstand small dips in the pool, sea etc? And does it sound like a ridiculous idea? I got the idea from a girl who had put sellotape above her boobs under a strapless top to make them firmer on a night out! Thankyou for your time

You win the award for the most original question of 2009 thus far! I would try 1 inch surgical silk tape- this might do the trick but I have never tried it myself!
