If you are considering one of our treatments such as liposuction cosmetic surgery to improve your body shape and boost your confidence, it is important that you have as much information as possible about the type of treatment you will be receiving.

Before you undergo cosmetic surgery you will need to have spent some time with one of our consultants who will discuss the different options available to you and highlight the relevant cosmetic surgery procedures.

Though most of our treatments are simple it is essential that you are aware of the risks of cosmetic surgery as well as the cosmetic surgery pros and cons. We will admit a patient for treatment only after a full consultation with one of our doctors has taken place and you have all the information available to make the decision about what treatment is best for your situation.

During your consultation, you and your doctor will take some time to discuss the different treatments available and ensure that you choose the right one for you. Your doctor will want to ensure that you are in good health before any procedure takes place and will also want to know as much about you and your medical history as possible to be able to assess which is the best treatment for you.

You should ensure that you disclose your full medical history to your doctor and let them know as much as possible about your lifestyle, whether you smoke, your diet and whether you are taking any prescribed or over the counter medication, oral contraception or natural supplements. It is important that your doctor can build up a full picture of your medical history and health to ensure that your chosen procedure is right for you.

Prior to your treatment it is important that you follow the specific care instructions given to you by your doctor. These will be outlined clearly for you but may include giving up smoking; as it slows down your circulation and can inhibit recovery, stopping taking aspirin; as this can affect the ability of the blood to clot.

There may also be dietary requirements prior to and after your procedure and you should make sure you are clear about any instructions given to you by your doctor as this will improve the benefits of the procedure and minimise recovery time. Other preparations to make may include taking some time off work to allow for recovery, and making sure someone is available to take you home after your treatment.
