Breast enlargement surgery surgeon
Breast enlargement surgery is currently the most commonly performed plastic surgery operation in the UK. It is generally performed by plastic or cosmetic surgeons and is very important to thoroughly research your surgeon prior to undergoing your surgery.
Why frequency matters...
Some surgeons perform breast enlargement surgery infrequently and we at Aurora Clinics would recommend that you choose a surgeon who performs at least ten of these surgeries per month at minimum. This is because it is crucial that your surgeon specialises in this type of surgery in order to produce the best results.
Where to find the information you need
You can research your breast enlargement surgeon by checking the General Medical Council which lists all qualified plastic surgery specialists in the United Kingdom. You should particularly check to see if your surgeon is listed on the surgery specialists register.
Other web resources which can be useful are the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons BAAPS.co.uk which lists all fully registered plastic surgeons who specialise in cosmetic surgery procedures in the UK. Surgeons who register for BAAPS have usually, in most cases, been a consultant plastic surgeon in the UK and have to publish and record their yearly activity which is assessed.
It is also worth researching your plastic surgeon online prior to your consultation and there are websites such as the Good Surgeon Guide which give reviews of plastic surgeons.
Why do you need a second opinion?
In most cases it is advisable to have consultations with at least two plastic surgeons to give you the best idea of the best approach for you and also gives you the opportunity to decide who is the surgeon you feel most comfortable performing your operation.
Do you know what to discuss with your surgeon?
At your consultation with your breast enlargement surgery surgeon it is important to thoroughly discuss the appearance you hope to gain following your operation, a procedure which is considerably helped by bringing along a selection of pictures which show the type of bust you would like to have. It is also useful to write down a list of questions that you can ask your breast enlargement surgeon.
Some things you might want to ask your surgeon about are...
At your consultation you should feel free to ask your breast enlargement surgery surgeon:-
- to show you before and after pictures of patients whom they have treated
- to enquire how many patients they have treated and ask if is possible to talk to any patients whom they have treated recently in order to get a first hand experience of what is involved.
