I’m lay here with a million thoughts running through my head. Am I doing the right thing? How horrendous will recovery be? Will I be fit enough to return to work in time? Will my scar be low and neat enough? .......you get the idea. I haven’t even packed for the hospital yet and it’s too late now, I will have to blunder through it in the morning. I’m feeling miserable as this inner fight I’m having about the pros and cons of this surgery is driving me insane! I should be sleeping and getting rest so I’m better prepared for what’s ahead. I suppose all of the above is just normal pre nerves. I’m posting some before pics and will add to this review as I go along. Updated on 14 Jun 2019: So It’s the day after my surgery and I have managed to stand up and get washed and go to the toilet. It was exhausting and I had to have a sit down wash at the sink. I haven’t been able to see my scar or belly button yet but can see a huge difference already. The drains are awkward and annoying. I am going to have these removed tomorrow and there is hardly anything in them a this time . The surgeon and the hospital staff have been amazing and making sure I am as comfortable as possible. Updated on 19 Jun 2019: Went to the hospital for check up on how everything is healing. It’s the first time I have seen my scar and new belly button! The nurse was pleased with how fast my scar is healing. I’m so pleased with Mr Liew’s work he has taken great care of me. My scar and belly button are so thin and neat! Totally exceeded my expectations. Updated on 23 Jun 2019: Update on post op pics. I have ordered a post op girdle that I highly recommend. Updated on 23 Jun 2019: Ok so I’m 10 days post op and I feel good today. Im no longer taking any pain medication and I finished my antibiotic course yesterday. On my post op check up the nurse was surprised at how quickly I am healing. I have been taking the following supplements to support my recovery: Collagen 1,2&3 with vitamin C Arnica Bromelain Turmeric Antihistamine (to stop itching) I’ve just compared some side photos to see progress and considering I’m still really swollen there is a huge difference from the muscle repair. It’s one of the things I first noticed is how much better I feel from the muscle repair alone.

I had 300cc implants with Mr Liew on the 2nd of May, I’m now 6w PO and love the results. Can hardly see the scars and very natural looking. Wished I’d of done it sooner! The Care was fantastic by him and Fairfield and I would definitely recommend!!

I've recently had my open rhinoplasty surgery with Mr Se Hwang Liew and want to say not only my surgeon but all the staff from the start have made me feel so comfortable. I'm only 11 days post op but I would highly recommend this surgeon and hospital to anyone.

Had 275cc overs in April 2018, best thing I ever did. I was obviously a bit nervous but had a very good surgeon and was very well looked after in a private hospital which I stayed overnight in. Took 10 days off work , and was fully recovered in that time. Back in the gym at 3 weeks , can’t believe my recovery went so well , but I’m fit and healthy and look after myself . 6 months later and scars have disappeared.

I had a breast reduction and up lift at St Helens, what can I say..This surgeon is amazing he explained everything to me showed me pictures and canr and seen me before I went into theatre and ofcourse being nervous this made me feel at ease. The after care and staff following the surgery was outstanding. I am extremely happy with the outcome of my procedure and in the short time sincee having this done it has already made a massive differnence to me life, i would highly recommend this hospital and surgeon to anyone considering any type of cosmetic surgery, thank you to look Mr liew and all his staff who looked after me. I am a happy women!!

I had a scar and mole removal done by Dr Liew. I had to get the mole done 3 times as it kept coming back. I don't think the CO2 laser is very effective especially on Asian skin. The scar is gradually disappearing which is good, but the laser has left me with a small dint where I had the mole done for the third time. The mole has not returned, but I am hoping the Dermatix gel will flatten the dint and leave the skin looking level. I have booked to see Dr Liew next month, so let's see what he says.

I am three weeks post op TT and BL pain has been OK a bit sore at the moment not much swelling. Starting to sleep flatter still wearing binder through the day. I do swell a little towards the end of the day if I have been busy. Scars seem to be healing well. Back to see Mr Leiw next week so far so good. Love my new belly button. Spire nurses were fab I thought it would be more painful haven't taken pain relief for over a week. I do get sore towards the end of the day but a shower and some aromatherapy oils help. So far really happy it will be better when I dont have to wear the binder.

I have a consultation with Mr Liew through MyBreast at St Helens clinic. Currently very small chested - wear a 34B in some bras and 34A in others! I'm looking to go to a full C cup maybe a D - I'll have to try on a few sizes I guess! I'm wanting to go for a natural look, and just generally feel more confident when it comes to clothing/underwear/swimwear! I live in jumpers 4 sizes too big all year round at the minute! It's something I have been considering since about 18 however have always just pushed it to the side and prayed I was a late developer!!! I think it's time to take the plunge! I work in a very active job that often means I end up in some rough and tumble situations - I'm hoping this doesn't massively affect having the implants, although I am expecting to have to work from the office for maybe a month or so. Has anyone else had a similar situation? Also having had no children yet, but hoping to in the next 4/5 years, has anyone experienced any major differences in their implants or breastfeeding? My other half doesn't think I need the implants but it's supportive of whatever I choose to do, although I think he is getting bored of my constant talking about it! I am hoping to throw all these questions at Mr Liew next week but would love to hear from some women that are in or have been in the same situation? Thanks! Lois x Updated on 24 Feb 2017: I have found this site so helpful! I have finally gone ahead and booked in for my surgery on 9th March!!! I will be having my surgery at Fairfield Independent Hospital in St Helens. I'm nervous and excited at the same time. I'm currently a 34B at most and am just looking forward to feeling a lot more confident in myself. I have shown Mr Liew photographs of the type of look I am hoping for. I am wanting to be a full C cup small D cup. mr Liew said I would be best suited with 360cc in my initial consultation, although I only tried on 330cc which I liked. I am a bit worried about going too big. But I think I need to trust Mr Liew as he is the professional and is of the opinion the size will be in proportion with my body. I will upload some wish pics and also some before pics! I have booked the first week off work and then will be returning on light duties (I have quite an active job) for 5 weeks before returning to full duties. Updated on 3 Mar 2017: A few before photos of what I'm currently working with! Got my pre op booked for 07/03 - last minute! Only 6 days now. Excited/nervous! Updated on 7 Mar 2017: Had my pre op this afternoon. Took my Nan with me who agreed that everyone at Fairfield is so nice and it's a really comfortable place. Everything is good to go for Thursday now! I'm nervous/excited but more excited. I just hope that I am pleased with the results. The nurse said today that Mr Liew is excellent and everyone is always really pleased with their results. I've got a night shift tonight and then another tomorrow before my op which is afternoon theatre on Thursday. Being admitted in at 12:30!!!!! Updated on 9 Mar 2017: It's time! I've just been all marked up by Mr Liew! I'm sooooo nervous now - is it too late to back out? Haha. I think I am more excited. I just hope they aren't too big. See you on the other side! By bye little boobies Updated on 9 Mar 2017: I did it!!!! I'm feeling over the moon but very tired. I'm not in a massive amount of pain just discomfort and feeling quite tight. I can see the skin between my boobs is pulling so I'm hoping that settles as the swelling goes down. Mr Liew has just been back in to see me and said that everything went well. I went with 360cc over the muscle. There was the option for 390cc but the sizers I tried were 360 and I didn't want to be any bigger! I'm excited now just to see the girls start to d&f. Staying in at Fairfield overnight then back home tomorrow. Feeling shattered already so hopefully sleep won't be too much of a problem! Updated on 10 Mar 2017: Back home and all snuggled up with my monkey. Propped on on my two pillows and a 12ft maternity pillow to stop me rolling over in the night. I'm a side sleeper. We are currently renovating our house (hence the disgusting walls and mess) so I'm going to be staying with my nan for the next few days. So so tired so hoping to catch a few zzzzz's. Pain wise I'm feeling pretty good, I haven't had any painkillers since I left hospital this morning. Only moment that caused me to nearly pass out with pain was when my other half forgot I'd had surgery and whilst holding my hand started swing it!!!! Followed by an OMG I'm so sorry but which meant slamming me into his chest! Bless him. Back at the hospital Wednesday for my post op appointment. Updated on 11 Mar 2017: Woke up this morning in not much pain at all just a dull ache and a bit tight. Popped a couple of paracetamol and my antibiotics and feeling okay. My only issue was I didn't sleep great. I was propped up on all my pillows which didn't help - but I kept on waking up with the achiest heels??! It was agony! I've taken off my surgical stockings this morning and I'm going to give myself a wash down with a flannel as I can't shower til Wednesday and feel grim already!!! Last night I think I went through all the emotions. I went from thinking I hadn't gone big enough to wondering if I should have even done it at all. Forgot all that nonsense this morning though! Feeling good and can't wait to see them start to change!!! Updated on 11 Mar 2017: I am obsessing over the littlest things, even though I know that they are things that I won't know until they have settled!! I'm like are they too far apart are they to small are they too big etc. I need to CHILL. But meanwhile I snapped a pic pulling down the compression bra which is actually starting to hurt a bit now! Got to keep it on til Wednesday though when I go back for my post op. Updated on 13 Mar 2017: So my hair was so majorly greasy it was disgusting so I just got my other half to help me and washed it in the shower. I was super careful and tried not to let any water get on them but unfortunately they got a little bit wet, and the way I was positioned I feel like I may have over done it a little bit :( I've changed bra into a dry one but just hoping this won't affect things! Two days til my post op.... Updated on 17 Mar 2017: I had my post op on Wednesday and Mr Liew said everything seems to be healing well. He said to get fitted with a normal bra by the time I come back for my next appointment on 5th April. He said I also didn't have to continue wearing my support bra if I didn't want to but I spent damn near £80 on them so I'm gonna be wearing them until they can be worn no more!! My incision is bleeding a little bit - I don't think I am overdoing it massively but maybe I am doing just a bit too much! I just get so bored not being able to do much but I wouldn't want to scupper my results. Added some photos. Just waiting for these girlies to drop on down!!! Updated on 4 Apr 2017: I'm so in love with my new boobies!!! I feel like they have dropped loads and softened up quite a bit! Although I hope they still have lots of softening to do! Got my 1 month PO with Mr Liew tomorrow

Hi, I am a 34 year old mummy to 3 boys. 4 year old twins and a 5 year old. I am hapilly married to my high school sweetheart for nearly 7 years. Having my pregnancies so close together plus the additional weight and strain of carrying twins has taken a huge toll on my tummy and breasts. Although i am not happy with the way i look both dressed and undressed my main reason for surgery is for health reasons. I have suffered for a long time with lower back pain, neck pain, painful bra strap grooves and bad posture. I have been to physiotherapy for years and have tried many different therapies but nothing has worked. In two days time I will be having a full tt with muscle repair and a breast reduction from a 34k to hopefully a d/dd. I am excited yet extremely nervous and scared!!!!!!!! At times I am happy I am doing something for me and something that will greatly improve my health ( added bonus of looking better) other times I feel so selfish to be spending so much money on myself. I am 5'2 and weigh 181lbs (12'13) over the past year I have lost just over two stones. I have been on RS everyday reading all of the reviews and they have been a huge blessing. It's taken weeks for me to post something but with the encouragement of my hubby I have taken the plunge. Next step will be posting some before pictures...... Hopefully my review will be helpful to somebody else : ) Updated on 16 Mar 2014: Thank you ladies for all of your supportive messages! Sorry it has taken me so long to update but I just couldn't be motivated mentally to do it if I am honest I just wanted to do absolutely nothing following my return home after surgery. Here goes-: Day of surgery - 1 day post op I arrived at the hospital at 7.30am and was taken down to theatre at 9.30. Before surgery I had my blood pressure and temperature checked. I was then measured for some stockings and met the doctor who would be doing my anaesthetic. He was lovely and I felt a bit better after meeting him. Finally I was measured by my surgeon and had a few before pictures taken. Surgery took 4 hours and I was back in recovery at 1.30pm. The first thing I remember was being sick twice and being told by a nurse that it had taken a while for anyone to be able to wake me up. I woke up at 6.30pm!!! I drifted in and out of sleep for the rest of saturday and the same the following day. Everytime I woke it wasn't for more than 10-15 mins but I felt fine and was aware of the nurses checking on me. Day 2 post op I was alot more awake and was able to get up and use the toilet, wash at the sink and sit out of bed in the chair for a little while. I didn't have any pain as I had a pain pump with morphine but moving or doing anything on my own was just impossible. The nurses were fantastic and helped me so much. Later on that evening I had more checks including making sure my dressings were ok and I was discharged. The ride home was fine but I did struggle to get upstairs once home. That evening I just took paracetamol before bed and managed fine. I slept in bed propped up with pillows but it was an uncomfortable night. My boys slept out that night as we weren't sure how the first night was going to go. Day 3- Day 5 My boys were back home on day 3!! My next few days consisted of sitting propoed up on the sofa all day and sleeping propped up in bed at night time. Sleeping has got better and by the morning of day 4 I was off all meds. I started my period on day 3 which wasn't due for a few weeks so it was inconvenient to say the least when you can't do much for yourself and can't shower! I had a BM on day 4 and it was fine. I was given lactolouse to use on day 4 If I hadn't been but didn't need to. My appetite is coming back slowly from day 5. My boys have been fab and so has my husband with taking responsibility over everything and seems to be coping so far but next week will be hard as he had to go back to work. Day 6 Today I finally was able to get out of the house as I had a nurses appointment to change my dressings. I had a little peak for the first time and am happy with everything although my boobs look smaller than I expected. The nurse said everything is healing great. She advised me to try and straighten up a little everyday as I am still pretty hunched over. Day 7 I am able to get on and off the sofa on my own. I can get out of bed on my own but I can't get into bed yet. Day 8 Feeling a lot more like me today. I can go up and down stairs slowly on my own and am nearly standing straight. Although I do naturally tend to pull back down to a hunched position if I walk to far. I am moving at a faster pace too : ) I forgot to mention that I had my boob drains out on day 1 and my TT drains out on day 2. It was ok felt a little weird but not really painful just one tube hurt as the last of it was pulled out but lasted two seconds. The children slept at my sisters last night so that my hubby could get on top of the chores in preparation for next week. Lets see what next week brings, a day feels like a year ha ha. I have my mother in law helping my husband with the school and nursery run next week. Hopefully I can drive and walk a little way by the following week so I can take that back over. My twins only do 1-4 at nursery the days I don't work so it means leaving the house several times a day for all the drop offs and pickups. I will post pics soon!! I do think I have a highish pain threshold though I had my twins naturally 20 mins apart and didn't think it was too painful. Updated on 16 Mar 2014: Updated on 19 Mar 2014: I have just got back from my 1st post op consultation with my surgeon ( day 6 post op had nurse appointment to change my dressings) Everything is healing well and i got my first peak at my new body! I am happy with everything but I think the boobs are going to take some getting use to they seem so small and boxy. I am not missing the weight of my old boobs though! ! The surgeon said my boobs will drop and get a rounder shape as they settle down. I got the all clear to finally shower! I am walking 90% straight. ..I was told I can try to sleep a little flatter than I have been. I just can't believe that is my body in the mirror! ! I have some infection cream for under my boobs where the healing is a little slower and a little dressing to put on after I shower. I don't have an infection but I think its good to use to prevent any set backs. I am due back in a week. Told to continue resting with no heavy lifting : ) Updated on 19 Mar 2014: Forgot to add I am really happy with my TT scar its very low : )
