Having had thought about a breast reduction for many years but always feeling quite nervous, I’d never had an operation or even spent time in hospital so the thought was very daunting. I finally plucked up the courage to have my consultation after researching the right hospital and surgeon for me. As soon as I met my surgeon, Nicola, I was completely put at ease. She is friendly and professional and answers any questions you may have. She went through absolutely everything with me throughout the consultation and afterwards I was confident I wanted to go ahead with the surgery. On the day of my op I felt prepared having spoke to Nicola beforehand. As soon as I woke up from my surgery, I felt immediately happy with the result. I was already put in my post op bra but could tell I was happy with the outcome. The first night after my surgery was uncomfortable due to having to sleep upright however not painful. My recovery was a lot better than expected with no where near as much pain as I had originally anticipated. I have seen Nicola twice since my operation, one at 2 weeks post op to have my dressing checked (only surgical tape which was great as could see the results the following morning after the op) and one at 6 weeks. It’s only been 6 weeks since my surgery and my scars are already fading. I definitely thought my scarring would be much worse so I’m over the moon with my results. My breasts look very natural and are now practically symmetric. Nicola has done exactly what I wanted and I couldn’t be happier or more grateful. It’s made such a difference to my confidence!
