Amelia Gray Hamlin was just 16 years old when she got breast reduction surgery. She made the move after her piercing got infected. During the time, the model was just “12 hours away from going into sepsis,” which is a life-threatening condition triggered by an infection.

“I had a 104 fever. 104. My left boob was out here,” Amelia revealed on the podcast. “I was 16 and had mastitis, whatever that is. It was the worst thing I’ve ever been through.”

At first, Amelia went to the emergency room where doctors told her she had a kidney infection. But, she wanted another opinion. So, she saw a disease doctor at Cedars Sinai Hospital, who told her that she had strep in her left breast. Her nipple piercing got pulled and cause a tiny abrasion in her body.

“I already had the strep living in my system and then it went to that part of my body because it was an open wound,” Amelia explained. “When I tell you, my boobs were this big. And I, like, didn’t just get those down naturally. … I had to fully get surgery.”
