Step 1. Outpatient Consultation

Plan your surgery  >   Outpatient Consultation

We are delighted you're considering coming to us for your surgery or non-surgical procedure. Many people have considered having plastic surgery and most of us have some aspect of our bodies we're not entirely happy with.

You may already understand your aims and what the surgery might involve. This website provides clear information and advice that will answer some of your questions and guide you through surgery and beyond. However, it is impossible to answer all your questions and help you make the right choices without a detailed consultation with a plastic surgeon of your choice.

You can contact us by phone, letter, fax or online to book an appointment at a time convenient to you. Our appointments are scheduled to last approximately half an hour but may take less or more time as needed.

During this consultation, your surgeon will listen carefully to your aims and expectations before examining you. They will then advise you about the available options and help you choose between them. Any questions you may have about the anticipated outcome, surgery and recovery period will be answered.

Of course, there is no obligation to continue with surgery following your consultation. You may wish to think things over and discuss the options with your family and friends first. Some patients request a second consultation if further questions arise, and we can arrange this for you.

Before you embark on any surgical or non-surgical procedure, we aim to ensure you thoroughly understand the procedure, the anticipated outcome, and the risks and complications that occasionally occur. You should feel confident at every stage.

Should you decide to proceed, the next stage will be a meeting with one of our specialist nurses for a pre-operative assessment.
