Graham Offer

I had a tummy tuck a few years ago by Mr Offer. I decided to have it done as Id had a hysterectomy and my stomach hung over the scar and looked horrible.

The operation I can honestly say was completely painless. I had pain relief of course but never felt anything. The scar was very neat. The care I received from Mr Offer was really good, he is very approachable and nice man. My stomach is lovely and smooth and looks flat.

After years of thinking about a breast reduction, and with the encouragement from my doctor , I finally went ahead , I was so frightened. But it was time to go with it , I was in a lot of pain . I knew who I wanted , and that was Graham Offer . And on November 19th 2015 , it was done . And 8weeks later . Ian the happiest person a ever , I wish that I had it done years ago . Graham offer , I can not thank you enough . You are a very talented skilful surgeon, you are very sincere kind and compassionate., and so are all your staff , thank you all so very very much ,

I wanted the Blepharoplasty as I had hereditary bags and just looked tired all the time. I researched different surgeons and discovered that Mr. Offer at Spire would be a good person as he doesn't go too far. I had the procedure carried out lat week and the stitches taken out today. I am absolutely amazed at how good I look. You can bear see the scars and he was able to slightly lift my cheeks at the same time through the eye. I look 10 years younger already. Though he did say that the best results will be in 3 months or so..... I am very very pleased with the outcome!

I want to share my experience in the hope that it encourages others to take the plunge. MissIndigo has been a terrific source of inspiration and I hope she won't mind me mentioning her.
I will be 50 this year (and no, it's not a mid-life crisis) and I couldn't picture myself being stuck with these for the rest of my days. 20 years from now, maybe, but I'm not waiting to find out!
Naturally I feel nervous, but mostly I keep dreaming of them just a little more perky. (Maybe one pencil instead of five!)
I have put a few pictures on as I think it's important to see the changes to come, and honestly, I knew it was bad, but they look even more droopy in these photos than I'd imagined.
From the age of 14, I always thought I drew the short straw in the boob department as they've always drooped, consequently, I've NEVER gone without a bra, always worn bra sized swimsuits (very expensive too) and generally kept them covered as much as possible. Confidence in the bedroom was nil, unless I could dance around in one of my hammock type bras, which of course was not great for my husband. He, on the other hand sees no reason for this surgery, as he thinks they're great, but he's prepared to support me in my decision.
Right now, I feel incredibly hopeful, for what's to come and would like to extend my thanks to all the girls that have allowed me to peep into their lives and share their journey too.

Well folks, I've just updated some day 10 photos as I know everyone is always interested in the results. I know without a shadow of a doubt how improved they are, there was just a little bit if me that wanted the nipple higher up, but my surgeon has explained that I have to allow for the natural dropping that occurs which forms the tear drop shape. He admits to overpacking the tops (with my own tissue) to allow for this, and tells me that the nipple will point outwards and they will look less false. I also know from all the gazillions of stories I've already pored over that time and patience is essential.
As a matter of interest to the maturer ladies out there, I can tell you that I had a mammogram the Monday before my lift, that showed a mass on the left, followed up with an ultrasound and biopsy on the Wednesday to be given the all clear on Friday Feb 1st. Panic over and surgery went ahead on the 4th Feb as planned. We did have a few nerve wracking days, but so far so good.
I've been having a few pangs of guilt, as I feel like I've deceived a lot of friends and family. I've told very few people as I couldn't stand being judged and talked about etc. So I guess I have to say a big thanks to all the ladies out there who share their ups and downs, I'm so glad to have you to turn to, as I know each and everyone of you understand why we do this.

Hi everyone. Quick update at the 3 month mark. All is well and they are settling exactly as my surgeon said they would, and I've stopped obsessing about my nipple height. I finally understand that I do have a low mammary wall and this is a determining factor in how high the nipple can be placed. The reality is, these are the best they've ever been and I am so glad I had the surgery. Scars are still a little tender and I continue to sleep in a soft support bra and also wear non wired bras in the day, otherwise I do have an awful ache and burning sensation. Other than that, I'm still on cloud nine. Can't hold a single pencil either!

It should be Mr Graham Offer

So I’m less than two weeks away from surgery now...excited more every day aswell as still feeling some nerves. I’m happy with the sizes, currently rocking a deflated barely fill a b cup after feeding my kiddos, don’t really care on the size I end up, just want them to look natural and fuller. I may also need a nipple lift but Mr Offer won’t know til the day.

He’s been great throughout, seen him lots of times pre to double and triple check I’m happy with size, each time he reassures my choice and has given good advice. Pre op all done, buying the supplies for after now and then I’m all set

Before front and side, don’t realise how wonky your boobs are til you start this process! Hopefully the next pics I post will be post op and I can compare the two. Trying to eat really clean and stay hydrated in the build up to the op, determined for a smooth recovery. Any tips on how to help in the first few days post op would be great

Busy getting myself sorted today. I feel excitement but also massive anxiety over the size that they will look huge!! It’s so hard to judge so fingers crossed I’ve made the right choice on the advice of my PS. I’ve been scrawling the site and others looking at before and afters, trying to get a sense but one size on one person looks totally different from another. So I’m stepping away from my phone and will see what tomorrow brings. Pics in my macom bra hopefully to post a lovely comparison in the next few days. Wish me luck!!

So I’m all done, feeling very tight and high but other than that ok. Surgeon used 255...to me now they look absolutely huge so looking forward to them settling a bit and getting rid of the swelling. Also actually looking forward to the macom bra going on to keep them in check a bit. Everything I’ve read on here says how swollen they are at first so keeping that firmly in my head

Updated on 13 Dec 2019:
Adding before and after pics, the bra feels like a safety blanket at the mo so it’s not coming off! Pleased with side view just look wide from the front due to swelling. Keeping up with the pain relief but so far so good and I have quite a good range of movement, much more than I expected to

Updated on 15 Dec 2019:
3 days post op, I’m still feeling really swollen. My boobs feel huge to me still and I’m in the irrational stage of thinking they are never going to get any smaller. They feel ok first thing but then by the afternoon they seem to fill up!! I’ve ditched the macom bra today and gone with a normal sport bra and they feel less restricted. I’m hoping I’m just being impatient and the swelling will go down and I’ll have a lovely result. But at the mo they feel really high, really wide and solid. Fingers crossed for a day 4/5/6 change

Feeling slightly less swollen, 9 days po now and it seems to get significantly better day by day. They still feel big to me but gradually getting used to them. Saw family today who didn’t know I’d had it done and none of them even noticed! That was the aim that I’d look the same or similar in clothes just better naked! Not seeing surgeon til 20th Jan, feels ages away but unless I’m concerned about anything, that’s when I’m booked in. Dressings on for another 7 days or so then should be done. The nipple lift is probably the one that’s last to settle, still feels a bit tender, although I’m pleased to be getting some feeling back in the nips! Whoop!
How did everyone approach exercise? I’ve been going for short walks this week, mainly to keep me from going mad but the lack of movement is really starting to get me down now. When did everyone get back to running, gym, lifting etc. I’m hoping a few more weeks and I’ll be back at least doing lower body. Anyway pics attached of front view, and one side, the other side just looks wrong with the nipple strapped down. They still look like engorged breastfeeding boobs to me, fingers crossed for more reduction of swelling and less veiny! Happy with shape so far, albeit still high and a bit stuck on

I’m having a tough time this last week...just over 3 weeks post. They seemed to be getting better swelling wise but today feel huge again, but mainly on one side. I’m worrying they will end up one bigger than the other. I know everyone has a little asymmetry but at the mo they look like very different boobs. It’s the right one that has the nipple lift that looks bigger, particularly the nipple itself. Sitting lower though than the one without the nipple lift. For the first time since procedure I’ve actually wanted my old boobs back vs my current wonky swollen ones....Wearing the sports bra is doing my head in now, feel uncomfortable 80% of the time. Trying to stay positive but finding it hard. Did everyone else go through this? I feel it necessary to point out I am due on so potentially a bit of swelling going on due to that and generally hormonal. Hoping week 4/5/6 brings a better state of mind and more settling. Everything I read says swelling is mainly gone by week 3, guess I was expecting to feel different than I do

6 weeks today, feeling better and better by the day. Everything feels like it’s settling nicely and scars are looking good. Had my check with PS, he’s happy with everything. Got the ‘ok’ to start running again which I’m made up about, a few more weeks til I can go for it on upper body but I’ll take my win on the run!
And I can wear normal bras....which leads me to being in bra hell! After the supportive post op bra, everything just feels funny. I can wear under wire if I want to. Size wise I’ve ranged from 32E (WTF) to 34D depending on where I shop. I seem to have bra consignments being delivered to my house daily
Where is the best in the UK?

Updated on 30 Jan 2020:
So I got my pics today from PS....sent via mail vs email so this is a screen shot. Wowzers I forgot how much volume I didn’t have, so pleased with the results, feel like I’m loving them more every day

Updated on 11 Feb 2020:
Loving them more every day, scaring is improving and things deffo feel more normal if that makes sense
The side with the nipple lift looks better and once that scar fades I think they will be great
Started back doing some light upper body stuff which feels fine. I teach Pilates so have been gradually getting myself back into it for a few weeks but only just incorporated upper body. Still find a full stretch a bit uncomfortable but can support my own body now which I’m pleased about. Running is no problem and my lower body is on point with al the attention!!

Just had my six month check a couple of months late due to covid but could not be happier. Implants are settling really well and my scarring is fading nicely. I’ve had amazing care from Mr Offer and his team throughout and can highly recommend. He listened to what I wanted and I got it, a very natural but fuller look. All the worry I had before the op feels odd now but I took my time and wanted to be sure which I’d definitely recommend. Loving the girls

Well after 5 years of thinking about this I have finally decided to go for it and do something for me. I have never really had much in the way if boobs but I have lost most of my volume in the past 2 years. Had several consultations with mr offer and feel very safe in his hands. As I want a more natural lower falling breast I will be going for a natrelle 420cc moderate profile full projection shaped implant. Surgery scheduled on 7th April. Scared but excited. Just really hope the result is what I want ????.

As per many of you lovely ladies I have found this site a life saver. I have spent many hours pouring over before and after pictures and reading review after review. Therefore I have decided to do my own review. I have found that there are limited reviews on here in the UK too so hope that helps someone in the UK like me.

I have lost much of my very limited volume in the past few years. I was never particularly blessed with big boobies so the loss of what little I had has affected me. In the past year I have had multiple cysts aspirated; every time this led to my breasts looking more and more hollow and uneven.

Had my consultations with Mr Offer in February where we discussed options and settled in shaped implant at 420cc with moderate + projection.

To be honest I have gone around in circles trying to decide if this will give me the result I want. Im drawn between wanting a natural result that suits my body shape to total booby greed. My pre op is on 30th March and surgery scheduled 7th April. Nervous and excited!!!

Well who thought this would come around so soon. My surgery will be undertaken at the Nuffield Hospital in Leicester. Had the pre op and every thing was fine but I must say i started to realise i was being a bit optimistic with my recovery times. So I got home and made a plan of things to do and get and prepared my son and partner for the post op period. I'm really starting question my decision on implant type and size and so have asked if Mr Offer could see me again before m planned surgery next week. Luckily he has fit in a session with me on Monday to go through our choices again. He's being very patient and understanding.

As per my last post I had started to get nervous that my choice of implant wasn't going to deliver the results I wanted. Mr Offer has kindly squeezed me into his clinic 4 days pre op. We went through the whole sizing experience again with mr Offer explaining why he thinks shaped will actually give me the results I want. He explained about why this would give me bearing n mind my body shape, projection of my rib cage etc. We ended up back where we started at 420cc shaped m+ profile. But I feel very confident this is right now. Mr Offer will try a 470cc in the table and see if I Can accommodate the larger implant but he will only do this if it looks right. Also he will only undertake the nipple lift if required. I'm so nervous now. Mainly about being out of action for a few days and the pain afterwards. I need to remember that they will be high and pointy and not to stress to much!!!!

7th April.........wow it's finally arrived. Scheduled to arrive at hospital at 12:00. No food or drink after 6:00 so got up at 5:00 to have some eggs and juice to eat. Made myself busy doing chores to stop the nerves. Still by the time I was admitted I was sooooooo thirsty.

Admission was smooth and everyone u dealt with at Nuffield was fantastic. Very in control but reassuring. My OH dropped me there as he had to work but my 15yo son stayed with me to ease my nerves which he certainly did by taking the mickey out if me!!! Lol

Took me down at 15:00. All was smooth and I was very calm. When I came around I was frantically shivering and needed a hugger blanket. This soon got to work.

Pain was manageable but felt sickly especially when given the iv antibiotic. This was managed with anti sickness meds. Tried to get sleep but to behind not sure I got any. In sure it will get better.

Well I did it. Really pleased with result so Dari know they need to d&f so am being patient. Ended up with 420cc. Mr Offer tried 470cc but he said one side couldn't take the size and would have looked misshaped. I trust he made the right call for the best result. A bit dissapointed but respect he would go for what looks best. I'd rather that than main about a misshaped breast. He's done an awesome job for few days op. Will post some pics tomorrow. Pain had even difficult but I followed all instructions to the letter. Have found sleeping upright is the only option and have found sleeping overall really hard. Starting to get wetter today though. Also purchased a heat pad firmly back today. Is working wonders on back pain. I'll post pics tomorrow. Not been wearing bra as PS said ok not to. Have ordered a Macom bra. Hope it arrives soon.

Here are a few pic. Some taken while I was changing my dressings. My prescribed meds have run out so using over the counter meds and boy don't I notice a difference.

It's strange but although I'm pleased with the result so far I feel quite down. I think it's the combination of not much sleep, discomfort and being at home alone so much. Like most of you my life is normally quite the opposite and I struggle to fit everything in. I have decelerated to 0 mile an hour and feel quite isolated.

Pain the right breast is minimal but the pain in the left breast is way stronger. I can't see anything of concern so assume it's the muscles and nerves coming to terms with the implant. My scars looked good under the dressing. Going back to the hospital on Friday for a wound check so I will ask any questions about pain management etc then.

Most of all The two things I miss most are I want to:
1. Give my son and partner proper big strong hugs
2. Lay in a normal bed on my side
3. Play with my two labradoodles properly. They are like two coiled springs right now.

Wow what a few weeks. Thought I'd post an update and progress pic. It's been a roller coaster. Whilst my healing has been good I have struggled with pain. Not so much boobs but my back and bowels!! Sleeping on my back has caused havoc with my back. Purchased a electric heat pad from Argos about 4 days in and that helped enormously. Still use it to sleep in 2 weeks po.

Ended up realising what an adverse affect codine has on my body and got very very badly constipated; as in 10 days not going constipated!!! Pain was horrendous and finally when I did manage to go I got serious anal fissures. Oh my word!!! Wish I'd known in advance so for anyone out there that may feel this is happening or are prone to this id recommend daily lactuose and eating foods that soften stools and drink lots of water. Not the greatest of topics but wow I wish I'd known as it really made me feel unwell.

My dressings were removed after a weeks and the nurse said my scars were healing really well.

I'm two weeks po now and I think things are settling. Swelling lasted a week to 9 days but that has now gone and things are looking slightly less high and pointy. I'm really pleased with the results so far. Mr Offer has done a great job. I had a few questions that I emailed to him and got a quick response too.

I'm still bloated around the belly area but I guess this will go as I resume a normal routine. Frustrating as many of my trousers are too tight to wear comfortably.

Anyway a few update pic from past few weeks
