How do I select my implant size?

We recommend the following steps to help you choose the best implant shape and style for you

  • Schedule a virtual consultation with me to discuss the changes you would like to make to your breasts
  • Have a virtual 3-D simulation performed to show how you may look with different implants
  • Book your in-person meeting with myself. It is helpful if you can bring photos of results you would like to achieve and those you would prefer to avoid.
  • It is during this I will take measurements of your bust and will recommend a size range that would suit your frame. You then try a wide range of implants, held in a specially designed bra, to see how you would look in your own clothing
Will I have any pain after surgery?
  • With modern surgery techniques and anaesthesia pain is much reduced following surgery
  • Most of our patients say their bust feels tight but not painful
  • You will be given pain killers to help you through the first days following surgery. Many of our patients do not feel they need these however.
Are silicone implants safe?
  • Silicone implants have been used since the 1960’s and have a good safety record
  • Recently we have become aware of conditions such as BII & ALCL which research shows occur more often with heavily textured (rough surfaced) Implants
  • It is very important that you go through the information we give you on your procedure outlining the risks. This will include a guide on your specific procedure and when appropriate links to sites to research.
How long after my initial consultation could I have my surgery?
  • This depends on your procedure and we can discuss potential dates of surgery with you once you decide to go ahead.

Will I feel anything during surgery?
  • This is exceedingly rare and to my knowledge none of my patients have felt anything during surgery
  • Our specialist anaesthetic Consultants use the latest techniques including
    • TIVA- as opposed to traditional gas-based anaesthetics. This reduces sickness and drowsiness following your procedure
    • Advanced monitoring of your brain waves whilst you are asleep to check you are at exactly the right level of anaesthesia throughout your procedure.
Will I be able to drive home after my surgery?
  • No you will not. This is because you have just had an anaesthetic and are not likely to be fully focused on the road. In addition you may not be covered by your insurance.

What is the life expectancy of my implants?
