Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Posting here because this site has been so helpful...
Posting here because this site has been so helpful in my BR journey! (especially @Topheavy, thank you!) I'm in my early 50's now, have wanted this till at least my mid 20's but was too scared of something going horribly wrong (in hindsight I think my anxiety was based on a feeling of 'not deserving' this rather than reality).
I'm now a week post-op and things couldn't have gone better. Almost no pain, great hospital, great surgeon, really happy with how things are looking even though it's early days. He took off a kilo! I thought my breasts would halve in size but I'd say they've gone down by at least threequarters. First few days I thought he'd taken a bit too much but I didn't really mind. Now my mind is starting to adjust back to reality and I can see that there's still plenty there! Just not used to normal sized breasts!
One of my great discoveries has been the HealthJourneys meditation audio (they call it meditation but it is really hypnotherapy) - there is a specific one for surgery that is used in US hospitals. It has a heap of five star reviews, one of which is from me now! It calmed me down a lot in the week before surgery and I'm listening to the post-surgery tracks now, twice a day. I'm convinced it's helping me physically as well as mentally - and that it's at least partially responsible for my very low discomfort levels (never went above a 2 on the 0-10 pain scale, surprising the nurses). I swam for the six weeks leading up to surgery and I'm sure that's helped too.
I was still anxious so asked for additional tranquilizer before surgery, and got Hypnovel, which was brilliant - basically remember nothing from being drawn on by my surgeon! You have to ask for it specially, though, NZers! Ask your anaesthetist if it's possible, if you're anxious about the procedure itself. Very happy I've done this! Can't wait to get exercising to get rid of my newly visible gut tho!

"A masterpiece"... "intimidatingly perfect"
Actual comments from friends on viewing my 9-days-post surgery breasts! What can I say... couldn't be happier. Thanks Mr Glasson!
A charity for your old bras!
www.upliftbras.org send bras to women in need, from Bali to Fiji to Cambodia. Among their comments on bras they would like: "E cup plus, any size, likely to be the only properly fitting bra a woman gets in her life"! Imagine that... Much better than chucking them in the bin!

Mr David Glasson
I have had major healing issues with my incisions and my surgeon just left them dry and did no debridement of the slough. I ended up with deep sores under my nipples. These did not start to heal until I asked for a second opinion and was put under the care of a district nurse who used Medihoney. They started to heal immediately at that point.
