BOTCHED- I Do Not Recommend
I underwent a mummy makeover in 2023, which included a tummy tuck, breast reduction and lift, and fat transfer to my hip dips.
Before surgery, I made it very clear that reducing my breast size significantly was one of my main priorities. I started as an H cup and specifically requested to be reduced to a large C or small D cup.
When I woke up from surgery, I immediately felt that my breasts were still far too large. However, my concerns were dismissed and I was repeatedly told that the size was due to swelling and that I needed to wait at least a year to see the final result.
Twelve months later, I raised concerns that I was still extremely large, had developed a noticeable deformity in my hip from the fat transfer procedure, and was unhappy with the overall outcome. While my scars are quite severe, I understand that scar formation can vary from person to person and I do not place blame on the surgeon for that. My main concerns were that the breast reduction had clearly not achieved the size I requested, my breasts were noticeably different sizes, and I was left with an obvious hip deformity.
I was told my concerns would be discussed with Dr Yunus and that someone would get back to me. Despite multiple attempts to follow up, I received no meaningful response.
Two years after surgery, I contacted the clinic again and finally received a response. Instead of addressing the outcome of the original surgery, I was told I would need to pay the full cost of further surgery, which was actually more expensive than my original procedure.
As things stand, I remain an H cup despite undergoing a breast reduction. In my opinion, the surgery has left me with breasts that are asymmetrical, misshapen, and far from the size that was agreed upon before the procedure. Combined with the hip deformity, I am deeply disappointed with both the surgical outcome and the lack of aftercare and support when I raised legitimate concerns.
I would strongly encourage anyone considering treatment to carefully research all options and ensure they fully understand the clinic's approach to revisions and post-operative care before proceeding.
