Imogen Thomas reveals she’s had breast reduction surgery in Turkey

Imogen Thomas has revealed she’s had her breast implants removed and had an uplift this week in her third boob job after asking fans to decide in an online poll.

The reality star and model, 42, took to Instagram on Thursday to share a health update after she went under the knife again.

It comes after she hinted she was going to have them enlarged even more after asking fans to decide in an online poll – where the majority told her to reduce her bust.

Imogen previously had her breasts increased from a 34C to a 34E.

Sharing an update from Turkey as she recovers from surgery, the ex-glamour model revealed she’s not yet seen the results.

Imogen told fans: ‘Success. I’m recovering RN. I haven’t seen the results yet so stay tuned. But my day was so smooth and extremely organised.

‘Thank you @dr.salihonurbasat for making me feel at ease. I can’t wait to see the results.’

Alongside the update, Imogen posted footage of her experience, showing her preparing to head for the clinic that morning.

Once she arrived at the hospital, a doctor could be seen marking her breasts ahead of the operation.

At the end of the clip, Imogen gave a thumbs up to the camera while revealing the significant bandages on her chest.

Fans flooded her with supportive messages as she heals, with one writing: ‘Good for you doing what makes you happy. Glad all well, take it easy.’

A second said: ‘Omg been thinking of you, glad it went well. Speedy recovery.’

‘So glad you’re okay. Speedy recovery’, said a third. 

On Monday Imogen revealed to fans she had flown to Instanbul for the procedure, admitting how her breasts had become ‘too big’ for her.

She said: ‘I cannot wait, my boobs right now are really big for me. I’ve lost quite a bit of weight and I just can’t have this anymore. So I found the best surgeon in Istanbul’.

In a previous interview with The Mirror, Imogen admitted she doesn’t pay for her surgeries and instead offers her surgeons ‘collaborations’ on social media. 

She went on to say: ‘I’m doing a lot of reformer Pilates, and when I do that I feel top heavy, and I’ve had a lot of lower back pain. They are quite big, so I would like to have a reduction.’ 

The former Big Brother star was left ‘petrified and in tears’ following her previous breast surgery in 2017.

She told New! Magazine at the time: ‘I started crying. Going under [anaesthetic], you think the worst, like, ‘I’m being too selfish here for my kids. What if I don’t pull through?’ It can happen. I was more nervous about being put to sleep’ 

Imogen previously spoke candidly about her struggle to maintain her slimmer figure, admitting she’s finding it difficult to balance her social and dating life with staying in shape.

She told Daily Mail in 2019: ‘It’s hard because I’ve been out drinking all week and then the next day you want to eat so much rubbish, but I’ve been trying to be good.

‘So, I’ll force myself to get up the next morning and go for a run. I’m really really strict. So, I will always try and maintain my weight and shape now.’  

Imogen’s reduction and uplift comes just months after glamour model Rhian Sugden also had her famous bust reduced.

The 38-year-old went from a 32HH to a 32E and revealed the evident difference to her fans on social media. 

Sharing before and after videos of her breasts pre and post surgery, Rhian looked incredibly confident and happy with the results.

She wrote: ‘Love love love my boobs. No implants, just a reduction and uplift by the amazing Dr Hussain @pallmallcosmetics❤️’

In a clip posted on social media before going under the knife, Rhian revealed her nipples were in fact 11cm lower than they should have been after ‘gravity took its toll’ following the birth of her son George, one. 

She said: ‘I’m a bit paranoid about that and I just can’t to wait to have them a bit smaller, perkier, uplifted, it’s so exciting.’

Rhian continued: ‘My cup size at the minute is a 34GG, I can fit into a H, and it’s just so difficult to buy a decent bra these days.

‘Bikinis, I can’t even find one to get into because my frame is so small and my boobs are so big so it’s quite difficult.

‘My back ache, ugh, honestly I must have to get a massage like once a week to try and ease the pain and tension in my back.’
