Time spent during the initial consultation is the first step to achieving the best results. Everyone who has met me knows I offer the opportunity for as many pre-operative consultations as required before the decision to proceed is made.​

In recent news, there have been many horrific news articles sharing the stories of those who have travelled abroad for cosmetic surgery.​

At least 324 Brits have needed medical treatment or corrective surgery following cosmetic procedures overseas.⁠​

It’s important when considering cosmetic surgery that you liaise with your surgeon and truly understand the procedure.

Loss of skin elasticity, ageing and weight loss, can cause the breasts to lose their natural shape and firmness.​

A breast uplift or mastopexy is a cosmetic breast surgical procedure to lift and reshape the sagging breasts. It is similar to a breast reduction procedure, but minimal or no breast tissue is removed, the skin is tightened and the breast re-shaped.​

I believe that Cosmetic and Reconstructive Plastic Surgery should be individualised and tailored to each person’s needs, and ensure all procedures to alter appearance should follow the rules of safe surgical practice.

According to the new figures, BAAPS (The British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons) 31,057 cosmetic procedures took place in 2022, up 102% from the previous year.​

Figures were expected to rise post-pandemic due to pent-up demand, however, the numbers are higher than they were pre-pandemic.​

BAAPS President Marc Pacifico said:​

“The 2022 BAAPS audit shows that demand for cosmetic surgery has more than bounced back post pandemic.​

Economic uncertainty and a decrease in overall consumer spending does not seem to the deterring patients from having cosmetic surgery.”

Travel experts are warning people that they could face delays at the airport - and all because of beauty enhancements like Botox and filler. ​

Gemma Brown, head of product at Travel Republic is warning: ​

“When travelling, it's crucial to remember that the purpose of your passport photo is to provide a clear and accurate visual identification of yourself. ​

If you've had cosmetic surgery since your passport photo was taken, it could slow down verification checks at the airport, as you may appear to look different compared to your photo.”​

There’s been a lot of coverage recently around how UK citizens are travelling abroad for cosmetic procedures.

“There are several steps you can take to improve safety when opting for cosmetic surgery abroad.

The NHS urges people to have a consultation with a surgeon, to never pay for a hospital you haven’t seen and – similarly – never offer money before meeting your surgeon.”

I recommend to read this article for some harrowing real-life stories.
