Breast augmentation

The consultation

There are many things to consider before you decide to go ahead. It is important to explore why you want a breast augmentation and what your expectations are. We will discuss how the procedure is done, the different types of implants available, the reasons why we use a range of implants, what you may expect after surgery, any special precautions you need to take and the potential complications that may occur. If you are unsure about anything, particularly after consultation, it is vital that we clarify any points for you before you make a final decision whether to proceed or not.

We will also have had the opportunity to examine you to make sure that a breast augmentation is suitable for you. I will then ask you to come back for a second consultation at which time we can discuss any further questions that you may have and we will also take the opportunity to size you to select the appropriate implant to be used. There will be no charge for this second consultation or other preoperative consultations if you wish to discuss things further. Before surgery it is important that you have as much time as you need to consider all the issues involved and you should not feel constrained by finance.
