I had bilateral breast reduction and augmentation procedure with Mark Solomos around 8 weeks ago. Prior to my consultation I was worried that the procedure would either be too complicated due to the significant difference in my breast size and the tubular shape of them, or he would not be able to do it due to my age (18). After my consultation I felt a lot more comfortable with going ahead with the procedure as I knew it was now possible and what exactly the process would entail. I also knew that if I had any queries leading up to my surgery day that I could contact Christine Blake (PA/patient care manager for Mark Solomos) and she would answer me as soon as she could.
On the day of my operation I was quite worried as it was my first major operation but the staff at the hospital and Mark Solomos ensured me that it would all be fine. After my procedure I was given all the information I would need until my two post op appointments and people I could contact just incase anything seemed wrong. At first I was quite worried about the size of my breasts but the swelling went down after a few weeks.
I am now 8 weeks post op and I couldn’t be happier as I have hardly any swelling or bruising left. Along with this my scars are very fine and hardly noticeable without putting any products on them so far. They have also settled to a comfortable size that is not too big or too small. I have also noticed a huge change in my self confidence as I can now wear what I want to without worrying about the size difference being too noticeable.
I can’t thank Mark Solomos enough for what he has done for me as I knew that this was quite a difficult procedure. I couldn’t be happier with my results!
