Boob jobs remain the UK's favorite cosmetic procedure, with 11,00 women going under the knife every year.
But as restaurant manager Laura Damiani, 31, found out, not every operation goes exactly as planned.
Ms Damiani was left in agony following a botched boob job and things got worse 14 days later when necrosis - a type of gangrene - set in.
After weeks of unbearable pain, her nipples had to be removed - leaving her self-conscious and her relationship with her boyfriend at breaking point.
'The surgeon made me feel very comfortable,' says Ms Damiani who had hoped to have her differently sized breasts evened up.
'He said the outcome was going to be fantastic and I had no reason to think otherwise. You go into it a bit blind.
'You have this sort of rosy outlook that everything is going to be fine. You hear things occasionally but you never think it's going to be you or your family and friends. That's just the risk you take.'
Initially everything seemed fine and Ms Damiani was told her breasts were healing normally. But suspecting something was wrong after the pain worsened, she insisted on a second opinion.
'I saw a second nurse and that's the first time I was advised that something was seriously wrong,' she says.
