Anindya Lahiri, FRCS (Plast)

I had implant removal and fat transfer to breast (separately) with Dr. lahiri and I couldn’t recommend him enough. He is extremely knowledgable in his field and is so friendly he put me at ease straight away. I was very comfortable in both surgeries and explained everything in detail. I was extremely flat following my implant removal (literally zero breast tissue)but after my fat transfer to breast I now have actual breasts. They are still small and only an A cup but I’m honestly amazed considering the amount of empty tissue I was left with after implant removal. I didn’t have much excess fat for him to use apparently so he was only able to get a small amount which came from my outer thighs only but most of what was put in stayed despite being advised up to 70% might reabsorb so I’m very happy with the results. The shape of my thighs are nicer now too no lumps or bumps! I’ll be booking in for another fat transfer to add to the results as soon as I can. I’ve had other surgeries before but dr lahiri is by far the most friendly and skilled surgeon out of them all.

Mr Lahiri has provided me with excellent treatment from the very first consultation. I had bilateral breast augmentation with fat transfer in February 2020. He put me at ease and his obvious expertise in his field supported me in making the right choice for me. The care and advice I received were truly outstanding. Everything was carried out with the utmost professionalism and compassion. I felt completely involved with all the decisions. The operation itself went completely as planned. The results are even better than I'd hoped for. The size and shape fit completely with my frame and I was surprised at how the look and feel is more natural than I had expected. I completely love my new look. With Mr Lahiri's sound advice the recovery and healing has also been very successful. Mr Lahiri is highly skilled and a very compassionate doctor. He takes pride in his work and really cares about the outcomes for his patients. My life has been transformed and I can't thank Mr Lahiri enough. I would highly recommend Mr Lahiri to anyone thinking about breast surgery.

I had a minor surgery of two keloid removals on both my earlobes. I can’t thank Dr Lahiri enough for how well the surgery went. Everything was explained in detail leaving me with no doubts. I was constantly reassured throughout the surgery and was very much at ease. Thank you Dr Lahiri.

Amazing surgery. Explained everything clearly made me feel really comfortable. The results were better then I expected. I had no pain what so ever and the healing was quick. So glad I did this. Would highly recommend Mr Lahiri for this.

i had an amazing experience with DR Lahiri from my intial consulatation i felt very comfortable and he was very polite and helpful. I had surgery done 5 months ago and i am very happy with the results. I would highly recomend him. 5 star rating. :)

First of all this is the best decision I have made in my life - I had a few consultations and only felt comfortable with Dr Anindya Lahiri at the BMI hospital in Birmingham, United Kingdom. I must also comment on the 10 out of 10 care by the staff nurses at the BMI in Edgbaston.
I did not take this decision lightly. It took me 8 years to pluck up the courage! I've posted this review to 100% recommend my surgeon and to also share my journey with others who may be considering labiaplasty/are in recovery. I had my procedure done 3.5 weeks ago so I understand I'm still very fresh! I would like to ask anyone who's had this procedure whether they remained quite swollen around the perineal area for quite a while? My only query is whether it's likely to go down any more? The skin close to my back passage has felt very itchy!

From the first consultation through to my last check dr Lahiri was fantastic, very professional and he made me feel at ease.

My surgery was a big success, I healed incredibly well, I had very little pain or discomfort and I’m more than happy with the results

Thank you !!

I was kept fully informed throughout the process so I knew what to expect I am very pleased with the results of my surgery and would highly recommend Dr Lahiri. I have had an excellent service from start to finish

Treatment given by Dr Anindya Lahiri, from the initial consultation to the treatment and follow up care is the most professional, caring and reassuring I have ever had. I could not have had anything done better.

Two days before surgery!! I’m 5ft 1, weight 51kg and have a 26-28 inch back which results in a 30B bra. I remember when I first started this journey and I was adamant I was having the smallest possible breast implants. I’d urge anyone reading this that assumes that 225cc is “too big” to reconsider. Personally for me, the rice test was very inaccurate and 225g rice tests seemed ridiculous on my body. However, I was very lucky to meet a surgeon who actually STOCKED small sizers and when trying on 225cc as a proper sizer, they really suited my body.
From research, I think there are more options of sizes in round implants but I’m severely lacking in body fat up top and wanted teardrops. When I saw the difference between a 195cc and a 225cc sizer, there was no doubt in my mind that 225cc was the way to go.
I’ve seen girls with 180cc rounds and they look amazing and not too big so it appears (in my opinion) that rounds look bigger than teardrops as the 195cc teardrops wouldn’t have been worth the surgery.
I’m still incredibly worried that the 225cc will be way too big but something is better than the nothing I have at the moment.
The main reason for starting this blog is because there isn’t much AT ALL out there for girls who want to read about/see examples of smaller implants. I was determined I wanted much smaller than I’m going so join me and see!

Operation done!! My left boob is awesome. My right boob is 10/10 with pain even with morphine and codeine. So strange. As the one boob was hurting so much more than the left, the nurse wanted to check it so I managed to grab a quick picture whilst I was undressed. Obviously just swollen and definitely need to drop but I’m a patient person and that will take weeks/months. Hope you like!! 225cc teardrop over the muscle. According to my surgeon, the nurses said they were jealous when he was doing his final checks so I must look pretty good! What an amazing surgeon!

It’s been a very tough journey so I wanted to use this space to be honest with people about how tough BA can be. I recently left some comments on MYA Space and was told not to be negative on the forums by admin staff so I feel a lot of people go into this thinking everything will be great! This is not the case.
Day 1 post op: I ended up with something really rare called Neurapaxia which meant my nerves were severely damaged in my right breast. This was so painful I couldn’t breathe. I think hospital staff thought I was being a baby about the pain and it wasn’t until the consultant saw me the next morning that we realised something was severely wrong. I was then heavily sick from the painkillers which caused a haematoma in my right breast too and I was told I might need to go back down for surgery. Cue huge pain attack. I was finally discharged once I was put on the right painkillers and it was established there was no longer any bleeding. However, I decided to put a hot water bottle on my breast for the pain and burnt it!!!! Please don’t do this ladies. I was just so desperate I didn’t know what else to do - 5 weeks post op and I’ve still got scabs and blisters from this.
The neurapaxia is slowly going away. BUT the tightness, the pain, the inability to sleep properly, the inability to move your arms (regardless of neurapaxia) is something which is never discussed. I still have pain 5 weeks post op, can’t sleep properly, they’re sore all the time and hard so buying clothes isn’t easy.
I’d also recommend having the surgery done in winter due to the Macom bra. Now the weather is getting better, I could do without wearing it but they’re sore if you go without it for longer than an hour - I’m not used to the “weight” on my chest.
The size and shape are incredible. My surgeon is amazing and I’d never fail to recommend him - I’ve also had a rhinoplasty with him and he’s jut amazing. BUT please don’t take BA lightly, it’s a painful, life changing procedure which takes a long time to heal. Once you start talking to girls who are also post op, you realise you’re not alone with the pain and the inability to move and the sleeplessness and the tightness. It’s a big op. Make sure you’re prepared!!
I also have pics of my scars and blisters and other such healing pics before 5 weeks if anyone wants to DM to see them. I just haven’t been able to write till now as it’s been such a long, hard journey that I didn’t want to comment until I was feeling better.
Loves xxxx

The first picture is hours after the op, second picture is two weeks and third picture in the skirt is today. I feel these comparisons show how much they’ve dropped and swelling reduced. I’m still in nerve pain, I can’t deny that. But the shape makes me more hopeful that the nerve pain will go! 225cc teardrop over the muscle, 6 weeks post op after drop and (some) fluff.

They’re starting to look and feel like real boobs. They’re still quite hard which I’m surprised about but they’re juggling around when I walk which is great. I still don’t like sleeping without my Macom bra on, to be honest, I don’t like wearing anything besides my Macom bra. I’d guess that was because I was so flat chested to start with that I’m not used to weight, anything moving down there or feeling like I’m struggling to turn over or get comfortable in bed. I need to wean myself off my Macom!
Another random unexpected issue which has occurred this week is that my internal dissolvable stitches have started to dissolve which has caused a reaction and some bleeding/oozing at the incision site. Nothing serious or concerning but actually a lot of girls get this around the 2-3 month mark which I’d never heard of before.
My scars are still very red despite using Kelo-Cote gel and Scar Away strips. They’re very obvious at the moment. Still lack of sensation too, wouldn’t go as far to say numbness but lack of sensation. Thought my partner and I would be fully enjoying them by now but recovery continues... Onwards and upwards!!

So my pain has completely gone as far as I’m aware - I’m back to full activities! My scars are fading nicely but the burn scar is still pretty visible. They’ve dropped and fluffed and I’m completely satisfied with the outcome. I could clearly have gone bigger but feel these suit my body. I had 225cc teardrop over the muscle and I’m now a 32D in bra size! I still feel uncomfortable not wearing my Macom bra as they feel heavy after a period of time but I keep getting told I’ll get used to this. I just feel so much more confident in my body and I’m trying on clothes I’d never have considered in the past. It’s so worth it! Don’t hesitate if you’re thinking about it. I’ve had nose and boobs done now and can’t believe I ever hesitated, the results are amazing!!! Can’t recommend Mr Lahiri enough!!

So the boobs are nicely settled. 225cc mentor implants in teardrop over the muscle. Can’t thank my surgeon enough, he gave me EXACTLY what I asked for and didn’t push for more cc unlike other surgeons and I’m thrilled with the results. They’re absolutely perfect for my frame. Scarring doesn’t sit in the crease but I went so small I don’t really have a crease so that’s just how it is. I’d urge any woman thinking of going smaller to listen to their instincts and not let surgeons tell them they need higher. I’ve had zero “boob envy” regarding size since I had mine done. They’re so light and fluffy and jiggle like normal boobs now. I love my Macom bra so im still wearing it most days and every night. Just makes me feel secure and as though I’m looking after them. Trust the process - take it from someone who had THE worst start to BA (see other reviews) that you can be happy eventually!

Still quite weird feeling, quite numb and having discussed it with other women, this is completely normal but something no one ever discusses. They’re almost numb but also sensitive so it’s a weird sensation when your partner touches them. A friend of mine has had hers for 10 years and she reports the same thing. Just something to be aware of! Other than that, the look of them is incredible!
