Claira's surgeon describes the 'complex' operation
Before Claira Hermet goes under the knife, she has one final appointment with her surgeon Tibor Kovacs.
The 1Xtra DJ has been informed the operation is "complex" and two teams of surgeons will be working at the same time.
The surgery will take about three hours to complete as all her breast tissue is removed and a reconstruction is carried out.
Claira has chosen to have a double mastectomy after genetic tests suggested there is an 85% chance of her developing breast cancer.
Her mother and sister have both died from the disease.
