Times have changed and patients are becoming a lot more informed these days with the freely accessible wealth of information available on the internet. There is no need to pay for information anymore and the days of people investing in the Encyclopaedia Britannica are long gone. The value these days comes in the interpretation of […]
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Christmas is a popular time of year for surgery and you might think that odd because you do not really want to be heaving the turkey in and out of the oven whilst loosening your support bra or clutching your abdominal binder. I can understand the appeal because it […]
It is often a great source of mystery to patients as to what happens to their belly button when they have a tummy tuck. They often think it gets moved or a new one is made. In fact, just before we published this blog post, someone asked this question on one of my Facebook Live […]
There has just been a Panorama documentary on about the ‘scandal around breast implants‘. This is obviously of great interest to us because we specialise in cosmetic breast surgery and use a lot of breast implants.

We have just appointed a full time videographer to work with us and to document the daily comings and goings at the clinic. I know that to a lot of people, this might not be high up on the list of employees needed for a plastic surgery clinic, but it is something that I put […]
Xanthelasma are white plaques or spots that develop around the eyes.
