Implants come in different profiles (i.e. heights) and in round or teardrop shapes, and can be smooth or textured. While many women may think they know what they want, a full consultation – including a 3D scan of the body to simulate what she would look like with a chosen implant and size – is crucial to guarantee the final result is as natural as possible.

For the vast majority of us – and that includes you if you have any reasonable quality scar anywhere – scar quality depends much more on what happens around the time it is healing: for instance, whether it is pulled or stretched, gets infected or if there is dead or injured tissue for your body to deal with.

As Plastic Surgeons, we see lots of people asking for lots of changes to be made to their bodies. Most of the requests are reasonable and appropriate, but quite a few are not – because of unrealistic expectations of the outcome, or psychological body image issues.

If you are considering any kind of cosmetic procedure then it is very likely you will soon be introduced to the world of postoperative garments, whether it is a bra, corset, thigh or arm compression, or some imaginative combination of each.

We are proud to have an extremely high satisfaction rate for implant selection amongst our patients, even considering subtle differences in size, height, width and projection between each side to make your result as good as possible. We achieve this through our very own 3-Step Implant Selection Process.
