Cosmetic surgery since the age of 18 (now 24) was always something of interest to me. For me, I had very uneven breasts and very saggy breasts which resulted in me being very self conscious. I decided to talk to my family about this, in which they fully supported me. I got in contact with Murrayfield Hospital in Edinburgh about a consultation for breast surgery. They were very helpful from the first point of contact, all the way through out. I read some information on the surgeons and decided to go with Mr Cameron Raine.
At my first consultation I told Mr Raine I'd like a breast reduction, uplift and implants to even out the difference. After an hour of discussion as to why implants wouldn't necessarily be a first option due to the complications with my size difference (implants dropping, persistent asymmetry etc.) we decided to go with fat grafting as well as a reduction and uplift.
I was a size E on one cup and C on the other, having not heard a lot about the fat grafting it was hard for me to accept so easily at first. I went home and researched as much as I could on this method and found very little information. I joined forums and one of which really helped was 'real self‘. I created an account and got speaking with others who had been in the same situation.
I went back for a few more consultations prior to my surgery, then had my first treatment on the 24th of June 2016. Fat grafting is a great option for those who aren't sure on putting something into themselves which hasn't come from them, it may however require a few treatments to achieve the perfect results. I have had another surgery in October since my first op just to even out the left breast as this was always slightly smaller. The cost initially seems a lot but when you weigh it up verses the maintenance of implants, for me this was a good choice. I now have good symmetry of my breasts, with a natural look and feel. Very happy to have chosen this method and my surgeon Mr Cameron Raine, I could not have asked for better.
