    Im 22 and feel like everyone my age is getting implants and I have no boobs and feel the same, that I want boobs. Hearing you talk about it so candidly and in retrospect is so refreshing and actually helpful because it’s like future me talking to myself. I need to learn to love myself for how I am and not succumb to the pressures of society. Thank you for saying all this, it has made me feel so much better

      im SO glad you watched this. I feel like if i'd seen something like this when i was your age, i might not have gone through with it. We're so lucky in terms of how far our outlooks as a society have come in terms of body image, but we still have a long way to go. All I would say is, wait a couple of years, and then re-visit! small is just as beautiful :) xxx

      I‘m thirty and I have grown to really love my small boobs! I don‘t have to wear a bra if I don‘t want to and running down stairs never ever hurts. I love that I can wear relatively low cut shirts without it immediately looking overly sexy, but still feel sexy when I want to. And I think they are very sexy and beautiful in their own way. I can wear bralets etc. and most importantly: all boobs and all bodies are beautiful and this is what Mother Nature gave you so treat it well. The risks of implants shouldn‘t be underestimated.

      I've never had boobs and when I recently hit 27 for some reason my boobs have completely changed and grown slightly.. It looks like i've had a boob job and I havent! Because i've never had boobs as i've gotten older as they naturally grow they are so perky and cute. Honestly the older the better the 'no boobs' gets.. just wait it out :)

    I had mine removed last year. I was worried and spent quite some time preparing myself, but I don't regret it one bit and the journey to accepting my new post-op body was actually much easier than I expected. It's all me now and I love me ❤. I also had this period when I felt amazing, like you say I had shed something that no longer served me. Wish you the best in your journey.

    Hi I’m 31 and has my implants when I was 27 so removed at 30! Honestly the best decision I’ve ever made - media is blurring all the young girls mind while in reality implants are not needed - glad you’re sharing to wider range of girls so they’ll see different side of it - also been following you since you were pregnant with Grayson - and had no idea you have them !

    It's really refreshing to hear someone making the decision to remove them. It's wonderful that you are making an informed decision (free from societal pressures) that aligns with your lifestyle and what is right for you. 😊

    Thank you for sharing and this was very helpful, I have implants and have had for 15 years, I’ve also never thankfully never experienced any issues with them, but at the age of 45 now, I am currently looking to replace them just to go to a slightly smaller size, however, I have also considered not replacing and just having them removed altogether. I’m very interested in following your experience, so very much appreciate your openness Hannah, thank you and all the best ❤

  • @LaurenYaxley

    Hey Hannah, what a liberating journey this will be for you. You are such an inspiration. I’m 34 and had implants when I was 18 for the same reasons as you, growing up in the 1990,s was hard for those without a natural full breast.
    I’ve had my implants removed and can hand on heart say there hasn’t been 1 second (ok maybe in the first couple of weeks but not since) that I have regretted my decision. Everything that you have said resonates with me and I really feel that you are making the right decision for YOU.
    You will have low days, I remember I sat in the bath and cried for 5 hours when I got home from the surgery unable to look at myself. I did however then get out, wipe my tears away, created myself a gym routine to improve my chest muscles etc and went bra shopping….and I’ve never looked back.
    I’ve had 2 children, breastfed them both and a removal and love my body for what it has done for me. I still wear a bikini and a vest top without feeling self conscious…just cant do a burpee without my boobs /skin falling out of my bra 😂😂 we win some we loose some lol!
    Good luck girl you’ve got this ❤

    Thank you so much for telling your story. I am 30 years old and have a very small chest and have always been feeling uncomfortable about it, I guess in some way scared to be not feminine enough and it still upsets me when I cannot find a bra, not that I would need one but to feel feminine, almost being angry being denied a certain picture of womanhood. I did not know you had implants and it is so nice to hear that you feel comfortable in your body that you even take them out to be your natural self. I guess it is a journey of self acceptance and stories like yours can really be a part of it. Up to today I notice myself checking unconsciously the breast size of people I look up to or follow as if I would check to see if I fit the standard. What I am trying to say is representation matters and hearing and seeing different perspectives makes me feel less alone, so thank you 🙏

  • @miriamtalbot8257

    I relate so much to younger you! I’ve struggled for years with feeling self conscious about being flat chested and used to get teased by both guys and girls in high school for it. I almost got implants 5 years ago or so whilst in the military but then became pregnant and was unable to get them. I now am living a more holistic lifestyle and have decided I no longer want to take the risk of having a foreign object in my body. Although I still struggle with being flat it’s so refreshing to hear that more women are starting to realize that we aren’t defined by our looks. Thank you so much for making this video! Sending hugs and wishing you the best as you go forward on this journey! ❤️

Now I couldn’t care less about the size of my breasts! The other week my daughter said ‘I hope I have tiny boobies like you when I grow up!’ 😁🥰

    So lovely to hear about your story, you have such a gentle way of expressing yourself and I am glad you are happy with your decision both when you got them and now that you are taking them out. I totally get the pressure of feeling less womanly, I am now in my 50's and was always really insecure about my small chest. I am petrified of needles and medical stuff so was never brave enough to do anything about it. I am really glad I didn't now I also care so much less about how others view me. Also bonus menopause effect, my boobs went up a cup size all on their own, lol.

    You’re a beautiful woman, Hannah. It’s a shame that beauty standards affect us in the way they do, but I understand what you said about the era you grew up in (I’m 40). I’ve found I care far less about my body as I’ve got older. It’s quite liberating. I was so insecure about myself at 16, 18, 21…and yet, I see now, I looked quite lovely really! Youth is wasted on the young!

    Thanks for sharing what a great insight, I’ve been following your videos since your pregnancy aswell and they helped me a lot 😊. I am also flat chested and growing up in the 90s I definitely remember that time where there was certain type of look of women that was plastered everywhere. I felt very out of places and always felt that I couldn’t compare and my insecurities was quite a low. But as time has gone on and having a child. I too can resonate what you are feeling about change and feeling more natural. I think that’s the beauty of coming of age… although sometimes I still wish I had a little bit bigger boobs especially when I have to wear certain types of clothing. I have made peace with it. And there are other more important things in my life that I like to focus more rather than the way I look. Being healthy and looking after my self is one of them. Hope it all goes well for you xx

    Thank you you or sharing. I had the opposite issue. I’m naturally large chested, i think i was a double d/e by college. At school i used to bind my chest (i saw it in the movie ‘Now and Then’ with Christina Ricci… or i’d borrow my sister’s size 6/8 sports crop tops to wear under my uniform. I don’t have the courage or finances for a reduction so have had to learn to try to accept them. My mum recently had a mastectomy due to breast cancer and it’s really made me realise a lot. I’ve always been a grateful person but i’m learning, even now at 38, to have even more gratitude. Thank you for sharing. We all face such different insecurities and struggles.

I have always been self conscious of my boobs because my body type looks like I’m supposed to have them and don’t lol. Ive considered it, but I never have had the money ha. But this does help remind me it’s not all that matters. If it makes you feel good that’s amazing!! And if you want them out, that’s amazing too!

    I can relate so much when you spoke about the insecurity of being small chested, growing up in a society that makes you feel not enough, unless you had a flat stomach and a good 'rack'. I would wish for bigger boobs so much over the years, only to realise boobs keep growing until your mid 20s!! I was flat chested until i turned around 24, still not huge but they suit my frame. It's crazy to think people have such invasive surgeries before their body has even finished growing fully. So refreshing to hear you love your body as you age, a real breath of fresh air in todays world

      Thank you- i think it's hard to fight the pressure to look in your 20s forever. I think I have a different outlook when it comes to aging, I think it's a privilege and all i care about is taking the best care of myself that i can!

    My story is almost identical to yours! At 35 I too have enjoyed them but if I could choose again I would have not had them. I never show them, I wanted them for the shape in clothes and actually liked my natural boobs if undressed. The shape could have easily been replicated with padding in my least confident years but we live a learn. Now a happy girl mum I worry about that conversation ahead 😬 it’s purely a financial restraint stopping me remove. If it was free I would do it in a heartbeat. Thanks for sharing, validated my experience and thoughts ❤️

    Hi Hannah (and Stef), I'm catching up on your videos, I put a bit of youtube on hold since having my second baby.. this video has made me tear up. My sister passed away during an operation for breast augmentation (her second one) she was only 21. She would do these sneaky plastic surgery operations without telling everyone. She was so insecure even though she was the most beautiful woman to my eyes. She was bullied in school, and heavily mistreated by an ex boyfriend. Even though everything had been going so well for her with a loving boyfriend, a great job and a support system, we still lost her to this horrible insecurity that stemmed from so deep inside of her. I know that had she grown up a bit more, she would have realised it. I really hope this mindset has changed nowadays, I see some positive changes happening with all the self love and self care movement, but then social media scares me as a lot of people are hiding behind filters and plastic surgery. I am not saying I have not thought a thousand times about changing every aspect of my body, but I have two girls now and I am being so careful in how I speak about my body and I really hope I can teach them to love themselves. Anyway, I have been following you since the beginning, since your tutorials. So glad you are still here :)

    I'm a 32A, and considered so many times whether to get implants over the years. I'm 43 now, and never got them. These days, I rarely wear a bra, and never wear padding or underwires. My partner loves my boobs, I've found underwear shops that have my size (for when I do want to wear bras), and I'm glad I never got implants put it. I've listened to so many sessions with therapist Marisa Peer on how to love yourself, and these days, I'm in a much better place. :) Thank you for sharing your story. X

Hearing you speak so positively and frankly about your body and how you feel about it now is so refreshing and I’m sure it’ll help so many in similar situations. Would you say this surgeon spoke more about the psychological effects of taking them out versus the surgeon who put them in? x

    To be honest, I would've never guessed you had them...probably bc as you mentioned they weren't large implants. I never obsessed about breast size myself. I was too focused on the fact that I had no arse and had chicken legs to care about my boob size. I was VERY skinny when I was young and grew 6" in 1 year and looked like a tall gangly creature. So, in other words, all girls/women seem to obsess over some body part or another. Im proud that you want to go back to being your natural self. Thanks for sharing. :)

    I wasn’t going to post this but have decided to as this topic is so important to talk about. I had a mastectomy two years ago and decided when I got diagnosed with breast cancer for the second time to have a mastectomy but not to have reconstructive surgery. I have also never worn a prosthetic either. My breasts do not define me as a women so I went back to surgeon last summer and ask to have the other breast removed. I am now waiting for a date for my operation and I can’t wait to feel complete and be a flaty. I know emotionally it might take time for me to come to terms with my new body but it took a good year to come to terms with living with one breast. I know I have made the right decision foe me and can’t wait to complete the jigsaw for me. Swimming and wearing clothes will be so much easier for me xxxx

    This is SO interesting to me, I thought this video was going to be about how you got implants! I'm so interested because I have always had a veeerrrry small chest, always hated it and it affected my confidence massively. I am 37 now and have had three children. Now that I am not pregnant or breastfeeding anymore, I am very thin and my breasts disappeared even more😪So I've now been thinking seriously about getting breast implants, just the smallest size possible. I don't want big breasts, I just want *breasts* you know? I struggle writing this but objectively I know I am pretty attractive, but the absolute ironing board that is my abdomen from collar bones to hip bones really takes away my confidence. I feel a bit of shape will help. Currently I am using small prosthetic breasts inside my bra lol! I am so interested to see how you feel after getting them out.
    I also did the "I must, I must, I must increase my bust", every night!!! haha. Thanks for this perspective, really interesting to see it! ❤
