Forum : Breast Implants & Breast Augmentation : Breast Implants & Breast Augmentation http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/ Hi, I have just used the Harley Medical Group in Birmingham and had the operation in London last week (18th March). All the staff have been fantastic and I can definately recommend them. My Surgeon was Dr Malik. I had the under the muscle surgery which I must be honest am finding very painful. I'm on 2 weeks off work which if you have it done this way you will most certainly need. I was a size UK 6/8 32A and went to a hopeful 32C (this is the target once the swelling has gone down). It is hoped this method will look more natural, especially as I had very little breast tissue to work with to start with. If you do your research and follow the surgeon's advice I am sure everything will go really well.

Hi everyone, I am still doing research regarding a medical group. The best choice so far points to [url=http://www.transforminglives.co.uk]transform cosmetic surgery[/url], anyone has had any good/bad experience with them? Thanks, H http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=CBE48651-3048-8D61-F86AD850500FD8CD&r=2 2008-03-20T11:13:14--01:00 Has anyone used Transform? I didn't know if to have overs or unders either, but your surgeon should be able to advise you best. They have to take into consideration a number of factors. I ended up having overs and was pleased as I have heard recovery time can be longer with unders but it's all down to what is best for you. http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=AC9597FE-3048-8D61-F88CEC4C39FFBDC6&r=3 2008-03-14T09:18:47--01:00 Under or over the muscle? I used Harley a few moths ago. They were excellent. My surgeon was Alan Rezaid and he was very proffesional, as were the nurses too. They are a big name in cosmetic surgery so that put my mind at ease. I would recommend them. http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=AC92AA3C-3048-8D61-F869F85343E45C1C&r=4 2008-03-14T09:15:35--01:00 Harley Medical Group? I know happy and unhappy patients of Dai Davies but would say he is a better choice than some other BAAPS surgeons.I have spoken to many women who have used him and they all say he is brilliant. I didnt use him in the end for my op. Don't know of Simon Withey sorry. You should definitely do more than one consult and find out which one suits you best. Good luck! http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=A92CF8A2-3048-8D61-F8458C1E45EB0970&r=5 2008-03-13T17:25:39--01:00 Dai Davies & Simon Withey Does that mean you have to book the surgery before the end of March or have the surgery before the end of March?? :? http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=A7D5B654-3048-8D61-F8D6E646669F3B43&r=6 2008-03-13T11:10:43--01:00 Has anyone used Wellness kliniek in Belgium? Hi all, Had BA about 2 weeks ago now under muscle. My right breast feels tight and sore and I am wondering if this is normal? I really hope I have not been doing too much and caused a problem. Any ideas? http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=A78CF768-3048-8D61-F88E84CD9952DC1B&r=7 2008-03-13T09:51:16--01:00 Breast Augmentation I might look into having a consultation at Harley medical because they have just opened a new clinic in Essex, so would be much easier. Re under of over the muscle, I think it depends on which surgeon you use and your body. I have heard that under muscle can be painful but that it just the opinion of one of my friends, not gospel!! If you need a lift then over the muscle is supposed to be better and less recovery time too. :D http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=A485DFD2-3048-8D61-F812EEABBCB99568&r=8 2008-03-12T19:44:39--01:00 Harley Medical Group? Has anyone used the Harley Medical Group or The Hopsital Group, they are the two places I am interested in for when I have My Breast Enlargement, I have really struggled to find people who can give me advice. I'm really interested in whether to go for over or under the muscle? If anyone can give me advice I would really appreciate it! many thanks http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=5C576A0E-3048-8D61-F8859A2D6A05039A&r=9 2008-02-27T19:21:15--01:00 Harley Medical Group? hi my name is sophie I saw your question about the Harley Medical Group, I have a consultation booked for next week and I was wondering if you had gone ahead with using them for your surgery and if so would you recommend them. Also I was wondering if you had decided to go with under or over the muscle. many thanks for your time :) http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=5C4CEB3A-3048-8D61-F8989DE596EA4573&r=10 2008-02-27T19:09:47--01:00 has anyone used harley medical? Which clinic are they from? I'm trying to find a good surgeon but really not sure where to go yet. Even abroad is seeming appealing because of the good things that I have heard. Especially Belgium. http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=310B0064-3048-8D61-F8350B7B070FC083&r=11 2008-02-19T09:34:07--01:00 Dai Davies & Simon Withey Hi, has anyone used dai davies or Simon withey for BA surgery before, and if so are you happy with the results? http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=1D1FBE20-3048-8D61-F829463F370ABB26&r=12 2008-02-15T12:44:24--01:00 Dai Davies & Simon Withey I noticed that they have a special offer until March 31st, BA for 1999 Euros! I would be a bit concerned that the price may reflect the surgery. Just wondered if anyone else has been there? http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=146D68DC-3048-8D61-F814362EC7AA8A5D&r=13 2008-02-13T20:12:37--01:00 Has anyone used Wellness kliniek in Belgium? Dear all Apologies for posting on this site - the last thing I want to do is offend anyone so please accept my sincerest apologies if that's the case. However, I am a freelance writer and I have been asked by a leading women's magazine to examine the issue of plastic surgery and the emotional reasons behind their decision. Consequently, I wondered if anyne would be willing to share their story, and in turn I can promise you that if you would be interested in finding out more I wil not only ensure you are treated with sensitivity and respect but also compensated for your time and effort. If you are at all interested please email me at fiona_ford@hotmail.com.

I have heard that putting the implant in that way is best. You cannot see the scarring really at all. Where is your surgeon based? http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=0BEC8806-5070-B652-04F6F82ACD6125BA&r=16 2007-07-28T08:23:44--01:00 ba with nipple lift!! i have just had my consultation with the hospital group! With DR Renato Zaccheddu. He has advised that i have my implant put in through my nipple so he can do a nipple lift also. Has anybody had this procedure & Has anybody had the same sergeon. Any advice or before & after piccys will be gratefully accepted!! http://www.surgeryforums.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?messageid=F7BDC51B-5070-B652-046A97ABBD93955B&r=17 2007-07-24T10:20:15--01:00 ba with nipple lift!! Hi all, Have done lots of "googling" on this subject... Still can't make up my mind. I'm 5' 11" tall, size 12/14 and have a rather small 36b/38a chest. Going under the muscle seems to be the one to go for if one has little or no natural breast tissue....... I, have some breast tissue so perhaps would opt for the "over the muscle" procedure. But I hear they don't look as natural and have a higher risk of capsule contracture than the under the muscle. Under the muscle then apparently gets a bit distorted looking if you are flexing your chest muscles etc (not that I'd be doing much flexing I can tell you!!) I have seen before and after pictures of both procedures..... Not much difference to be honest. Breast tissue is naturally OVER the muscle......Shouldn't this be where the implant goes??! Sorry about rambling.... I'm genuinely at a loss........ Which honestly is the better option? Any answers or comments most welcome!!
