Hi Hannah!
I understand the feeling! I agree with Izzie and Katie. Take your time to do your research about clinics near where you live, prices, advantages and disadvantages of the procedure, surgeons, etc.
I just had a breast augmentation+nipple lift+ aureola reduction (I had a tubular and droopy breast before) 11 days ago. It’s still early days but my recovery has been very smooth and my surgeon has been amazing so far! His name is Dr. Olumuyiwa Olubowale (I know, complex name haha, they call him Dr Olu). He works for the Private Clinic at Leeds but also for the “Park Hill Hospital” (Doncaster). I don’t know if these locations are any good for you though…but I cannot recommend him enough! He was super informative about the whole process, risks, etc and he’s such a lovely man! I saw him twice after surgery already and he called me a few times after the operation to check how I was doing, etc.
I did find very helpful to see him from the beginning( first consultation) instead of just my patient coordinator but everyone has different views about it. I just think it is better (if possible) to meet the person who would be your surgeon from the beginning, just to make sure you feel comfortable not just with the company you end up choosing but also with the person who’s key in all this.
Depending on the place you choose, you might need to pay for the first consultation.
I wish you all the best xx
