Breast Augmentation at River Medical
At River Medical we are experts in Breast Augmentation. Our Consultant Plastic Surgeon has done over 3500 breast augmentations each one different from the next and completely individual to the patient. There are a few things that we do differently which will make your breast augmentation with us exactly what you are seeking.
We understand that for most women feeling good about your breasts can have a big impact on your confidence. Our Consultant Plastic Surgeon will work with you in the following areas in order to get the best possible results for you and your body.
The Procedure
This is one of the simplest and most tried and tested of cosmetic surgery procedures and is most commonly performed under a general anesthetic. An agreed sized implant is inserted through a small incision made in the natural crease of your breast.
Sizing
Size. This is why the vast majority of people have breast augmentation, because they want to increase their size and/or have their breasts more proportionate to the rest of our bodies. During your consultation with our Consultant he will talk to you about your expectations and what he can achieve for you.
River Medical Method for Sizing
Our method is slightly different to most other providers, our Consultant uses what is known as a ‘sizer’ during your procedure. This method means that you will get the perfect implant fit for your body type.

Frequently Asked Questions about Breast Augmentation
Who will do my initial consultation?
Our Consultant Plastic Surgeon will discuss everything with from your expectations to the results that you can expect to and all possible eventualities.
What is the recovery time like?
You will need to take 7 to 10 days off after your surgery, if your job is physical you may require more time. Everyone recovers differently and the River Medical team will monitor you closely.
You will have an element of discomfort after your surgery which typically lasts one to ten days but this will be managed with the support of your Consultant Plastic Surgeon and River Medical Registered General Nurse to ensure you the safest and most comfortable recovery.
How should I prepare for my procedure?
There are a few elements to this: preparation will begin with your initial consultation with our Consultant Plastic Surgeon, you will also meet with one of our Registered General Nurses. They will both go through every aspect of the surgery and your recovery with you.
You will come in once more before your surgery to have a further comprehensive pre-operative assessment with your River Medical General Registered Nurse.
The Consultant will be available to you right up until your surgery should you wish to see him again.
Will there be scaring?
Our Consultant Plastic Surgeon uses very fine specialist stitching which minimizes scarring.
Will I be able to breast feed after the procedure?
Yes, breast feeding should not be a problem after your procedure.
Why do you not have before and after pictures on the website?
Before and after pictures on websites can be misleading as they may not patients of the surgeon who will be doing your individual augmentation.
As every person wanting augmentation has completely different expectations it is a much more valuable tool for your Consultant Plastic Surgeon to show pictures of not only augmentation that he has actually done but also show you results you will be likely to receive.
