"I had been considering having breast enlargement surgery for at least ten years but had always been put off by negative reports in the media and the thought that I may be left with a result that was worse than my natural breasts. I began to research surgeons in my area and read the testimonies from Mr Chandrashekar's patients. I then booked a consultation to discuss the options.
"Mr Chandrashekar made me feel very relaxed, he listened to my idea of how I wanted my breasts to look, I was a small B cup and I'm 5 feet tall so I didn't want to look top heavy. He showed me the various types and sizes of implants and then with a nurse present I tried them inside a sports bra to get a feel for them. I took some time to think about it and the following week I returned, during this appointment Mr Chandrashekar took pictures of my breasts (with the nurse present) and then showed me a comparison of how I would look with three different types of implant using the Crisalix software - this really helped me to make a decision.
"I chose the teardrop implants and Mr Chandrashekar advised that he would put these under the muscle for a more natural look.
"I booked to have the surgery the following month. I stayed overnight in hospital and all the staff looked after me very well. Mr Chandrashekar visited me the following day to make sure I was happy and provided me with some aftercare advice and we arranged an appointment for the following week.
"I felt a little bruised and uncomfortable around my chest area for about 3 days after the procedure but not so much that I needed pain medication
"I'm really happy with the result and although I'm only three weeks post surgery as I write this I can see that the scars are healing well and the swelling has reduced. I will be a full C cup which is just what I wanted. I have 3 more weeks of wearing my sports bra then I can go shopping for some nice underwear!
"If you are thinking of having breast surgery then I would definitely recommend Mr Chandrashekar, he will listen, advise you of what is realistic and achievable and show you how the results will look - this will help you to make the right decision. Following that he will give you the great result you'd hoped for followed by great after care."
