WORTH IT$6,900
After two pregnancies and breastfeeding, my breasts were saggy and shapeless. One breast was bigger than the other and I could never get a bra to fit. I used to get dressed in the bathroom as I felt so shy about my body. I did lots of research before choosing Mr Quaba, who comes highly recommended. I organised for my son to go away for a week so that I could rest after surgery. I took two weeks off work, telling no one what I was getting done. I also arranged for a junior at my local hairdresser to blow dry my hair a couple of times as I knew to avoid stretching up after the surgery. To this day, no one knows I have had it done (apart from my husband) as my breasts look very natural and suit my frame. I am overjoyed with the results and now enjoy bra shopping (which used to leave me in tears). I was sensible and followed advice given to me and had no problems at all. Getting my breasts "fixed" was the best decision I ever made. Mr Quaba knew exactly what I wanted and met with me a couple of times to discuss things. I cannot recommend him enough....the man truly is an artist!

Breast implants! Hoping Mr Q will work some magic! Breastfed 2 babies and left empty. Any tips?

Mr Quaba is very skilled so don't worry....be excited! I was the same, I breastfed two babies and was left with saggy,uneven wrinkled breasts. I got round profile implants and they look amazing but so natural. Avoid any hoovering or stretching for a few weeks (do all your ironing tomorrow). If you're children are young, get someone to help you as you won't be able to pick them up. I also booked into my hairdressers as I knew I wouldn't be able to wash my hair properly.

Be excited and look forward to feeling great about yourself. I managed the pain fine when I got home...a few paracetamol and ibuprofen helped. You will be fine. Good luck!! xx

Aww thank you! That's really good to hear. My husband has taken a week off work and my sister is there until day 10. Do you think I'll be able to gently lift my 10 month old by then? When I need to. Will be avoiding lifting him too much. Mr Q said I could as long as i did slow, gentle movements... Glad to hear you love your new assets!! :-) xx

Hi ladies, I'm so reassured by your positive experiences of Dr Quaba. I too have had two breastfed babies and want my body back. Just wondering if either of you had under the muscle implants ? Also.... I note you had inserts to see what size would suit you, do you get them at your consultation ? Are you able to wear them after to make your decision re size. I am not really sure what size I should go up to as I really want to look natural, will Dr Quaba assist me with this ? And.... Do you have to pay for every consultation you have with him ? Or is that all included in the price ? Finally - so sorry for all the questions....how long after your initial consultations did you get your operation ? Thanks in advance....

Hi there! Sorry to hijack your message! I'm 6 days post op, sub muscular 275cc/g and other than a pain I caused myself I've (so far) had a really smooth recovery. I honestly couldn't recommend Mr Quaba highly enough. He's such a gentleman and so knowledgeable! I was really nervous before my op but he was so calming and confident that I was ok as soon as I saw him. I left all decisions as to size to him. I described what I wanted and tried on a couple of sizers and he gauged from my reactions to the sizers and what size & shape I was looking for. I'm so far so happy with size. I know I'll lose some volume once swelling goes down which I'll probably miss to be honest. Don't go too small. Mr Q said to me that no-one ever complains about being too big and I totally get now what he meant. We ended up going bigger than the biggest sizer I tried on as Mr Q said my frame could cope with it and suited it. And he's right. So far so good! The package cost is £4,700 but that's on the day treatment and aftercare. You get one free 15 min consultation and any thereafter are £120 per 30 mins. I only had the 15 minute one and one 30 minute and I felt happy after that. I was lucky and got offered a space only 2 weeks after my consultation but normally he has an approx 6 week wait. If you good rice test for sizers there's a website which shows you how to make implant sizers using stockings and rice! I don't think it's an exact science but it'll give you an idea :-) but Mr Q will let you try on sizers at your first app to gauge what size you're after. Unfortunately you can't take them home but they give you a good indication of what size you'll be happy with to suit your size and frame as we're all different shapes and sizes!! :-) I went from an A cup and am filling an m&s 34D sports bra at the moment but fully expecting to drop cup size a bit once swelling goes down. Mr Q will never let you go too big and will be honest with sizes to suit you. Good luck and if you need to ask any more questions please shout! :-) There's a lot to take in so make sure you take a list of questions. This site has been a godsend for me. Learnt soooo much! X
