I was in agony carrying my boobs about

3rd January 2008

Unfortunately for Kim when she became pregnant, her already large breasts pre pregnancy filling 34FF bra rose to an uncomfortable 35G.  Beautician Kim also felt further embarrassment when she had problems stretching over her clients whilst giving them facial treatments.  It was then Kim knew something had to be done and she visited her GP to discuss the option of a breast reduction.

 

Kim was put on the NHS Waiting list in Northern Ireland and as part of their waiting list initiative travelled to McIndoe Surgical Centre to see TV’s Extreme Makeover Surgeon, Mr Peter Arnstein.

 

She explained ‘He was fabulous because he was very caring and very practical. He told me the options and explained exactly how the operation would be carried out. We had a long chat and I left the consultation with no fears about the surgery.’

 

Kim had 14lbs of tissue removed and her breasts were reduced to a cup size of 34C.  Two months on and nearly fully recovered a delighted Kim is looking forward to buying some nice little tops that fir her properly.
