Lucy Waters had never been satisfied with her breast size so decided to undergo a breast augmentation - this is her story...
Treatment: Breast augmentation
Name: Lucy Waters
Age: 39
Occupation: Accountant
What prompted you to have the treatment?
I've never been satisfied with my breasts. I have quite a firm and nice body, but I badly missed volume in my breasts. I love the way my clothes fit me now, I generally like the way my breasts look and the way they make me feel - more satisfied and content, more feminine, naturally.
Who carried out the procedure and what was their opinion at the consultation?
I went to the cosmetic surgery clinic of Dr Dinko Toncic in Croatia. I sent photographs first and arranged a phone consultation. They said no scars would be visible afterwards, which was very important to me.
How was the experience?
The experience was amazing. I arrived a day before the surgery and they organized the lab and ECG. Before the surgery, I had an examination and a further consultation where we decided on the size of the implants. I was quite excited!
How long did it take?
The surgery itself took two hours and then I was sent home in the care of a nurse. The whole experience was very nice.
Did you have to take any medication after it was done?
I got some painkillers the same afternoon, but I didn't need to take anything else in the following days.
What were the immediate results?
They felt bigger than later on when they settled down. I felt some pressure in the breast area in the beginning, but when the stitches were removed, and when I saw how small the incision area was, I was absolutely thrilled.
Are you happy with the treatment?
Yes, extremely. They feel so natural. I wish I had done it before.
