I was the same about traveling abroad, the cost seemed so much lower until you start thinking about pre & post op. My husband said if I’m having it done I need the best in the uk and not some Turkish clinic which may not be at the same standards as over here.
I have wanted my uplift for 8 years after having our second daughter, I breastfed both which felt great at the time but I’m left with tubular shaped breasts that fall out of almost every bra. I took a new job starting in August so thought rather than taking time off on the sick I’d do it between jobs. I made that first appointment in April, Julie the PC at Newcastle went through everything, including costs. My uplift is £6000, £500 deposit on the initial consultantion day and the rest to be paid 8 weeks before surgery. They also do a finance package but getting a loan over 4 years will cost you £100 a month if you have good credit.
I’ve never felt more excited at this point. I met the surgeon Dr Gary Traynor whom told me exactly what I would benefit from and left the ball in my court. I came straight out on a high and booked my surgery and pre op appointment. Louise the mya nurse up at Newcastle is the most lovely person who went through every detail and took swabs, bloods, and pictures ready for surgery, she will be there throughout the mya experience. I hope this helps in some way, these are just my feelings on the experience I have had so far.
