WHY DID YOU WANT THE PROCEDURE?

I had wanted my enlargement for a while but I was always told I would grow into them.. which never happened. I have always been quite a self conscious person when it came to my breasts and I decided that the only why I would be able to change that was with an enlargement.

WERE YOUR FRIENDS, FAMILY OR PARTNER SUPPORTIVE?

At first I was apprehensive to tell my family and my friends that I had decided to have my boobs done as I didn't know what their reaction would be. Once I plucked up the courage I realised there was nothing for me to worry about as they were all very supportive. (Although I didn't tell my dad until after my surgery and I was on the way home)

DID YOU HAVE THE PROCEDURE FOR A SPECIAL OCCASION?

Literally everything I do, I do as soon as I can because I’m so impatient I want everything done now and I hate waiting. I didn’t have my procedure before an occasion or for a specific reason, but I had them done 3 months before my 21st birthday, which I loved as it made me finally feel like a grown up.

WHY DID YOU CHOOSE MYA?

Choosing MYA was the easiest decision. I chose them after 1 previous consultation with another company. When you know, you just know, and after my consultation with MYA I knew that they were the company for me. They have an amazing reputation and the staff are all amazing and cannot help you enough.

My surgeon was Mr. Mounir and the only way to describe him without you meeting him would be he’s a gentle giant. He was so warm and welcoming and immediately made me comfortable.

HOW DID YOU PAY FOR THE PROCEDURE?

Funding my procedure was the only thing that got in the way of me having my surgery earlier. I’m absolutely useless at saving so that was completely out of the question. MYA have a finance option which I had looked into but I found for me the best way was the take a loan from my bank and pay my procedure off in full.

HOW WAS THE DAY OF YOUR PROCEDURE?

On the day of my procedure I was so stressed. I was panicking, I had anxiety and until I walked into the hospital I was prepared to turn right back around*! Despite this, from the minute I checked in I was completely relaxed. The vibe and atmosphere was so relaxing and I knew I was in the right hands.

HOW WAS YOUR RECOVERY?

I recovered fairly quickly (I think?). I have under the muscle implants and I’d heard all the horror stories about the pain and discomfort. But with me, I took painkillers for 3 days and I was up about and back to my normal self more or less within around 4 days.

ARE YOU HAPPY WITH YOUR RESULTS?

YES!!! I’m so happy with my results, I’m now a year down the line and I couldn’t be happier. If this was something I could do again I definitely would! My confidence has shot through the roof, I’m amazed!

WOULD YOU RECOMMEND MYA AND THIS PROCEDURE TO OTHERS?

100% without a doubt! MYA are my only recommendation to anyone who asks me. I get so many people messaging me asking me about my procedure and every single time I advise if they haven’t spoken to MYA, that they definitely need to. If I ever wanted another procedure, I’d go to MYA without a doubt.

HAS THIS PROCEDURE CHANGED YOUR LIFE?

After having my boobs done, my life has changed in so many ways and opened so many doors. I got to travel to Ibiza to shoot the SS17 advert with MYA and now the AW17 advert too! I would have never been able to do exciting things like this if I hadn’t had the confidence from a breast enlargement!

Now I’ve had my procedure, I love being able to wear what I want. I never wore bikinis. I never wore low cut tops or dresses. And now I can wear what I want and I don’t have to think about it anymore - I love it.

WHAT TIP OR ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO SOMEONE LOOKING TO HAVE THIS PROCEDURE?

If you’re unhappy or uncomfortable with how you look and you want to change it, then do it. Don’t let other people tell you what’s right or wrong when it’s about how you feel about yourself. The only option that matters is your own and you’re the only person who knows how you feel about yourself. Don’t let anyone stop you from being happy!
