Breast reduction - 100% recommended! I’m so pleased I did it

It’s now been 12 months since my breast reduction operation & I can honestly say that I’m so pleased I did it. My breasts have always been large (34FF) but, since having my kids, they had continued to grow to an enormous 34HH. I’m only 5’3, so looked completely top heavy but - more frustratingly - I was finding it hard to wear anything that fitted my top half. My posture was starting to suffer because my back was getting sore & I felt miserable. I gave myself a year to see if increased exercise would help things - I went to the gym, lost a bit of weight but frustratingly there was no real difference to my bra size. I was getting increasingly down about the whole thing & it was beginning to affect how I felt about my appearance.

I went to Nora Nugent after having researched a variety of different surgeons. I was keen to have a woman surgeon &, upon meeting Nora, I was so glad I did. She was approachable, kind but also so capable - she was very thorough in taking me through every step of the process & was happy to answer every question I had.

I had my surgery at the Nuffield in Tunbridge Wells & I couldn’t have been better looked after. The nurses there were attentive & Nora made a point of visiting me several times both before & after surgery which was hugely reassuring. Since surgery I have seen Nora regularly for check ups, which again has been hugely reassuring.

The surgery went well & I’m now a 34DD - the scars are fading & the overall look is, honestly incredibly natural. However, I would have been happy regardless of the scars - having smaller breasts has been life changing. I can run without it hurting, I can stand up straight, I can wear whatever clothes I want - even a bikini (!) - without feeling self-conscious.
