I decided to post my progress on here because so many lovely ladies have allowed me to see their results so I know what to expect! Long awaited breast reduction- 21 year old with large, sagging breasts, back and neck pain, irritation underneath, trapping them underneath me if I sleep braless... All the fun stuff! I've decided to have the surgery young because I want to enjoy my life without being constantly sore and self conscious- it's now or never. It's been a long road to get to this point and I'm so happy the day is nearly here- I'm counting down the hours! Booked with Mr Chew through Transform for first thing on Tuesday 8th August. No anxiety, just excitement! After pictures to follow :) wish me luck! x

Good luck to you. I had BR done last week and I am old enough to be your mother! I went from 34 DDD or E to 34 C. I am wearing a special compression garment. I will see my surgeon in a few days for post-op visit#1.

Thank you so much! Hope you are healing well and not in too much pain :) haha you may be old enough to be my mum but it's sadly true that ladies of all ages can end up burdened with mahoosive boobs! Looking forward to miniature ones soon! Hope your post op goes well I'll keep track of your posts- good luck! X

Good for you!! Wish I did this at your age. Brine once married house kids got delayed to this year and at 54 I so wish I'd done it earlier. That said it does take a good 10 days of doing nothing but ratting healthy and self wound care. Make sure your in good hands. Google and yelp your board certified surgeon. And ask for a extra surgical bra. One to wear one to wash. I made a error. Used ice. Don't. It stops the blood flow needed. Do everything doc says. You'll avoid complication. Take care. Enjoy this ego self confidence lift. Sure nice to pick out a tee shirt without fear of the fit

Thank you so much! :) and big thanks r.e. Ice advice... I think I would've definitely iced to numb the pain but I'll heed your advice and steer clear :) congratulations on your own surgery, I'm sure you'll be feeling fab in no time with some lovely small boobs too! Take care x

Wow srgus you are one of the first people aside from my PS that says to not use ice! I was surprised when I was told not to, and it's reassuring to hear that other people have been told the same.

Glasgowgirl I wish you a smooth and speedy recovery!!! Mine is scheduled for the 11th- two more days!!!

Feeling a bit tender but honestly the pain is nothing unbearable! For what I was expecting to feel this is a pleasant surprise :) Got home after 1 night at Rosshall Hospital- cared for fantastically by the doctors and nurses. The worst part was the cannula in my arm- very nippy! Felt very sticky from the anaesthetic yesterday- I would recommend asking for a buccastem anti sickness patch it lasts for 72 hours and takes the queasy feeling away. Wearing a 32D that will drop to a 32C one swelling subsides. Mr Chew my surgeon is an artist- cannot believe the results! So perky and full- never imaged they could look this good. Now time for big recovery sleeps - have been very mobile today and I'm quite sleepy now! Thank you ladies for all your support this website is a godsend [RS bleep]

I have my first consultation on Friday. I am 52 and for me too, it's now or never! I have read so much on this site recently and its thanks to stories like yours that I feel I too can do this and finally feel content in my own body. I am so pleased that you have done this at your age - keep us posted! Well done!

Quite sore under left breast- think it might be to do with the sports bra I'm wearing and its seams resting on my incision. My hospital didn't give me a post op surgical bra- is that normal?? Otherwise just resting and keeping mess up. Was told showering is possible but I'm going to wait a few days. Will post my 10 day update next week! X

I just came back from my pre-op and was just told to get a bra that clasps in the front and a wireless sports bra. Nothing about getting a compression or surgical bra! I thought that was odd, too.

Your results look amazing. What a transformation. I've had my pre op and was told to avoid sports bra's that don't fasten at either the front or back. Looking forward to viewing your progress. X

I am now in my 8th week post op, I highly recommend M&S zip front sports bras, get one cup bigger as due to the swelling a smaller one will just not go on. You have to provide your own bra post op where I was operated on, also they recommend to buy two so that you always have one on whilst the other is being washed. Also as you have to wear it 24/7 for the first 6 weeks it makes sense. I am still wearing mine due to the scars still being a bit tender (even for a non-wired bra) but they are improving on a daily basis.
