Breast lift aged 54. Scar revision previous surgery.
I was referred to Ian Holten for breast reduction due to persistent rash under my breasts after 40kg weight loss. At my first consultation he suggested a lift rather than reduction as I was happy with the size but not the sag. He also suggested small fat grafts to compensate for age related upper pole volume loss. I had 50ml and 60ml transferred from my abdomen. I’d had a belt lipectomy and thigh reduction in the past with another surgeon. As I result I had unsightly scarring
After monitoring RS for months I finally had my BA performed yesterday So far so good 240cc - over muscle - saline I was stuck with sizing choice of 240cc or 260cc - I went with the smaller of the two as my aim was a natural look Slight swelling - however I have a feeling I will be very happy with my choice Updated on 5 Nov 2016: Feeling good.

Mr Holten performed an eyelift (Blepharoplasty) on me 14 months ago as well as fat grafting to my face. Since that time I have had watery eyes - one a lot worse than the other as well as puffiness underneath the eyes which was never there before. Prior to the surgery I asked if the fat grafting would help with the lines around my mouth. I was simply told "yes". As it turns out the only fat grafting that lasted is in my cheeks. I don't know if that has anything to do with the puffiness.
I am not happy with my tummy tuck, I was slim before my surgery so Ian didn't not have to deal with much excess skin. I feel as though he rushed my surgery, and didn't pull enough skin down. I have bulges and zero shape. I did address this with Ian early on, I found him to be aggressive and gas light me with that it was my body genetics for why I still have clumps of fat and loose skin. Anyway Ian refused to do a revision and the way he treated me Im done, Im looking at revision
