Simona Halep has bravely revealed she underwent breast reduction surgery a few years ago, after finding that her disproportionately large 34DD interfered with her game. This comes as no surprise to me, as many of my patients find their cumbersome breasts cause discomfort and pain in every day life, so one can only imagine what it’s like for women in top level sport.

Breast reduction / mammoplasty with breast uplift / mastopexy is one of my most favourite procedures to perform. It gives women a new lease of life and they are thrilled with their more manageable breasts. Puberty, pregnancy, breast feeding, weight gains and losses and menopause all make their mark on the size and shape of our breast and surgery can solve many of these body issues.

CASE STUDY: Louise 42years. I had been miserable re the size of my boobs for years and when I found Angelica I decided the time was right for surgery. I think it’s important to find the correct surgeon for you as this procedure is not for the faint hearted! Scars can be an issue and you need to be clear about that from the start. I have to say recovery was uneventful and I am thrilled with my new boobs! I feel liberated and ‘perky’ once more.
