So this is my first review and im not sure what to write but would love to share my experience with others...i had a breast reduction, lift and reposition 2 days ago due to severe back issues, neck issues and shoulder issues and a severe sag of 9cm due to the weight! At 20 years old my beasts were a size 12G and after losing 10kg they stayed the same size i decided to take some more drastic measures to correct my medical issues.

I knew i could get my surgery covered by the government if i was willing to wait on a ten mile long list and have no choice in which surgeon i would have my surgery with. I was not a fan of this option so decided to go privately, paying for the whole procedure out of pocket as i had no private health cover...i can honestly say it was the BEST decision!!! they look fantastic and i havn't had to deal with any pain! I asked the surgeon if i could go down to a c cup so i still have room to grow when my partner and i decide to have kids and we think he may have got it spot on...

i went in for day surgery on tuesday 26th March at 8am and was out within a few hours and they released me into my partners care overnight at 4pm, i went beck the following morning for a dressing change, have my drain removed and prep to go home for 2 weeks when ill fly back to get some stitches out, so far ive had small amounts of bleeding through my stitches and they have been itchy as all hell but the director of nursing said that was normal and just to take it easy :) IN the end 680gms was taken out of my left breast while 630gms was taken out of my right

Thank you, I feel absolutely fantastic...its day 5 now and no pain what so ever (completely surprised by that). thrilled with the results and cannot stop looking at the new me! only downfall are the stitches, they are itchy as anything, especially when there is a bit more warmth...Only 5 more days and they get taken out...cannot wait lol

Nice:)  So glad to hear this.  I do remember the itching and it about made me crazy.  As soon as the stitches are out, and holes closed up start the massage with either the Bio Oil or Palmer's Vitamin E Oil.

I have Bio Oil in my cupboard and asked my surgeon about it at my initial consult cause i love that stuff it makes your skin sooo soft lol but he said they will be supplying me with rosehip oil to use (never used this) and to give that a try

Im Now 10 days post op and could not be happier with the results....my surgeon has done a fantastic day, today i flew to the city and got my stitches and staples out, about the most painful part so far and it absolutely killed, especially at the T-junctions but afterwards it was the biggest relief i felt fantastic! im loving my new size and they are healing up beautifully, my scars are not pukkered or anything, if i rub my finger from one section to the other you cant even feel the scars, it blends perfectly! BEST PART OF TODAY THOUGH...BEING ABLE TO SHOWER AGAIN! was fantastic lol!

Final say so far....I LOVE MY NEW BOOBS!! lol

My nipples were super sensitive for about 6 weeks. They have calmed down now but I told my ps they should have come with a disclaimer warning. I found that if I placed the palm of my hand on them and pressed they would quiet down. Of course this is not always socially acceptable ha ha.
