Try not to worry, if something does seem not right just give your clinic a quick call!

As soon as I lay down on the theatre bed, a lady started asking me about my holidays I had planned. I can’t remember if I even finished what I was saying, I can’t remember a feeling of drifting off in the slightest, my next memory was waking up in recovery, thinking I can’t belie…[Read more]

I had breast reduction with The Hospital Group and my price was a few thousand cheaper than some MYA patients! As long as you look into whichever surgeon you end up with you should be fine wherever you choose!

M&S, Asda, Boux avenue, Ann summers, Debenhams, ASOS have a really good fuller bust range lingerie and swimwear!

I’m 4 and a half weeks post op, I had a breast reduction, was GG now wearing DD!!! and can come out of my macom bra at 2 months post op, but I’ve just bought two wireless bras fro…[Read more]

I was 4 weeks post op yesterday, I had breast reduction, I lost sensation in both nipples, have just now started to get back a bit of feeling when I touch my left nipple, but still not my right just yet! Also the lower half of both breasts is numb! It’s completely normal, and a long process I imagine, our nerves need time to reconnect after s…[Read more]

The macom bras are fine I think, the surgeon said it was perfect! It’s weird getting used to being in it constantly, I normally would sleep with…[Read more]

It’s going pretty good, I’ve had no dressings on for about 1 week now so can actually see my new boobs and I’m so happy! I did have a little bit of oozing in the first week but I called up my nurse and got that sorted, can see some of my stitches poking out which they said is also fine. Im back at work…[Read more]

My nurse told me to buy probiotic like yakult, you know those little yoghurt drinks, help with the immune system and constipation!
