Hi hun, I’ve from Liverpool as well, I went to loads of consultations and deposits are different in each clinic so it depends where you go, some only ask for 500. I had a bad experience with the hospital group in Rodney street ( I definitely wouldn’t recommend them) so I’m having consultations at other places now to see who can fix what I’ve been left with. Mya were really friendly and nice and NU cosmetics seem really good but the nurse was a bit funny with me, and Shetix in knight street have amazing reviews, I booked an appointment for them 3 months in advance because they’re so popular. You can still have the op if your a student, I wish I’d done in uni and not waited, and as long as you have the money up front it won’t make a difference, I don’t think you can get finance if your a student unless your earning a certain amount, Transform NU, MYA and Shetix all let you see the surgeon for free but The Harley medical group only let ye see a nurse, you have to pay them £200 to see the surgeon, and Spire charge about the same to see someone as well, I couldn’t afford to pay that for a consultation because you don’t get it back if you don’t go with them, so I didn’t see those surgeons, but I know the Harley medical group are more expensive than other places because they make you get scans and take your blood pre-op so your paying for all that as well, if your got any questions just ask xx
