Where do I start my journey?

There are so many options available when it comes to aesthetic enhancement and surgery that it can be confusing trying to decide which treatment or procedure is right for you.

The first step is to identify what result you wish to achieve and then look into the treatment or procedures that will give you that end result.

So you should start researching and looking at the surgical and non-surgical aesthetic options out there and get informed.

Real People, Real Stories

Once you’ve made your choice about what treatment or procedure you want, if you haven’t already, you should be doing some research and finding real life examples in the form of real patient stories or before and after pics.

This will not only confirm that you have chosen the right thing for you, but will help your practitioner or surgeon to know exactly what it is you are hoping to achieve. This may lead to the next step of finding your plastic surgeon.

Find your Plastic Surgeon – one of the most important decisions you will ever make.

  • Always Consult with at least one Plastic Surgeon 
  • Independent research is important – don’t just automatically believe everything you read and consult different sources.
  • Where do you want to be operated on?
    You should also be confident your surgeon is performing the procedure in a properly equipped and accredited hospital where there are backup plans and contingencies for emergencies. In rooms, A Day surgery centre or Private Hospital?

Book your consultations and set your date

Consult with at least two or more different plastic surgeons. This will not only enable you to compare prices, but it will allow you to choose which surgeon you feel more comfortable with, and give you a better idea of which surgeon will be able to give you the results you are after.

Choosing Your Surgery Date

You might need to work in with your surgeon and the dates they are available – some surgeons are booked out months in advance. However, the date has to be right for you.

Setting your date is a HUGE step! You are finally ready to commit to your procedure. You need to make sure you have enough time to ensure you have enough time to prepare:

All the little extras – it’s the little things that count. Have you thought of everything?

Have you got the right after surgery garments and other bits and pieces such as wound, scar and stretchmark cream to make your journey easier?
