Breast Reduction – Emily

April 5, 2017 by

Emily is 22 years old and had a bilaterial breast reduction with Medical Director, Mr Adrian Richards at the Shelburne Hospital.

Watch Emily’s video and find out more about her reasons for deciding on surgery and how it has changed her life.

I don’t have any body hangs ups now, I feel very confident again and can wear whatever I like.

Emily had always struggled with the size of her large breasts as they weighed heavily on her back.  This impacted on her enjoyment of taking part in certain sports and choosing clothes to wear.

She spoke with many people before deciding on the surgery to make sure she got lots of information and advice.  The team at the Paddocks clinic in Princes Risborough made her feel calm and relaxed and she feels she made the right decision for her.

Varicose Veins – Jen

January 17, 2018 by

Jen had been feeling insecure about her legs for a long time but since she noticed varicose veins starting to appear she has felt even worse as no amount of diet or exercise was going to reduce the appearance of them.

“For every girl displaying their perfect pins on Instagram, there’s me hoping they don’t show or hiding them away.”

Jen had varicose veins on both of her legs with her left knee being the most prominent, this was the one she wanted to focus on first with the aim of getting her right leg treated too if successful.

It wasn’t just the physical appearance of the veins that bothered Jen. She found herself feeling uncomfortable and her legs feeling heavy if she had spent the day on her feet. Jen also experienced itching and discomfort around the vein on a regular basis too.

Jen initially went to see her GP to try and find out the cause of her varicose veins but the usual causes did not apply to her which left her feeling even more helpless.

“It’s usually related to pregnancy, being overweight (sure, I’d like to lose a few pounds but not so much so that I would fall into this category) or spending a lot of time on your feet. None of which apply to me and can’t be the cause. So why it’s happened to me, I don’t know.”

Although Jen tried not to let her varicose veins determine what she did and didn’t feel comfortable wearing she did find; especially in the summer months her fear of wearing a dress without tights particularly frustrating.

“You won’t find me in a short dress that exposes them (not without tights) jeans or trousers are usually my friend. Which has made heatwave dressing a challenge!”

Jen decided that the time had come to finally do something about her troublesome varicose veins and came to visit us at our Harley Street Clinic to find out more about our range of varicose vein treatments including EVLA (Endovenous Laser Ablation).

“I met with Mr Rittoo who immediately made me feel at ease. He explained the procedure and that it’s a fairly simple and quick – It’s walk-in, walk-out so minimal drama around it.  Which is good, I am of course nervous – as I think is normal having any sort of medical treatment really. But overall I’m really excited. I know I’m in great hands with The Private Clinic who have a long history of treating varicose veins.”

Jen went ahead with an EVLA procedure to treat the underlying causes of varicose veins and a micro phlebectomy to treat the visible branch varicose veins.

“Mr Rittoo – who saw me for my consultation, operation and follow up – plus his team were all fantastic. In particular the nursing staff too, who were very caring and comforting when was having a bit of a nervous wobble on the operation table.”

The procedure itself doesn’t take long and Jen was able to leave the clinic shortly afterwards once she was feeling ready to do so and soon enough Jen was back to work and her usual activities although taking a bit easier than usual of course.

“No-one would have noticed had I not mentioned it myself”

Jen is now four months post-procedure as is feeling really happy with the results of her EVLA treatment and despite some incision marks still being visible she is much more comfortable about exposing them.

“I am really delighted when I look at my leg and no longer see the varicose vein there that made me feel so insecure. I can’t wait until next summer when the small incision marks that remain will hopefully be all healed and I can wear shorts without feeling like an awkward turtle.  I would 100% return to The Private Clinic for the same treatment again and would trust them to take good care of me for that second leg.”

Tummy Tuck – Esther

April 3, 2017 by

Esther is 55 years old and had tummy tuck surgery with The Private Clinic.

Watch Esther’s video and find out more about her reasons for deciding on surgery and how it has changed her life.

I wear my jeans with confidence now as I have a flat stomach.  It’s really changed my life.

Esther had previously had a number of surgeries for medical reasons which left her with scars on her abdomen.  She felt unhappy with their appearance and the excess skin on her tummy.

Esther did lots of research on her procedure and on her surgeon.  She visited  our Harley Street clinic three times prior to deciding to progress to surgery.  She feels so much better about her body and can confidently wear a bikini on the beach and feel happy that the scars that impacted her so much are no longer affecting her.

Laser Hair Removal – Aurelie

April 10, 2017 by

Aurelie is a 38 year old transgender woman and has had over 20 treatments of Laser Hair Removal at our London City clinic.

Watch Aurelie’s video and find out more about her reasons for deciding on treatment and how it has changed her life.

This has changed my life as I can go out without facial hair being noticed.  I would definitely recommend this treatment for other transgender people.

Aurelie made the decision to transition full-time and not having to shave hair was really important to her. The team at our London City clinic made Aurelie feel welcomed and supported throughout her series of Laser Hair Removal sessions.

The treatment has given her confidence in her appearance and helped in the process of her transition.

Breast Augmentation – Vicky

July 20, 2017 by

Vicky is a blogger for the BikiniGirlsDiary, personal trainer and writer and her lifestyle focuses heavily around fitness and health.

Vicky first considered breast augmentation after her first fitness bikini competition. Training for the competition involves training hard in the gym to drop body fat and follow a strict macronutrient based diet. The work in the gym, despite earning her a high place in the competition also meant she lost a lot from her already small chest.

Vicky was originally a small B cup but after training and dropping body fat she found herself being sized as a very small A cup.

“I’d managed to push myself to achieve my fitness goal and into the strongest and most impressive shape of my life so far, but, yet when I looked down at my chest all I saw was ribs. I had the shape of a flat chested teenager. Did this have to be the only way? Abs or breasts? What if I wanted both?“

It was at this point that Vicky decided to do some research and went to meet with a friend, who had recently had breast enlargement surgery, for a chat.

“I asked who she had gone with – The Private Clinic was the name of the clinic and the results spoke for themselves.”

After some more research Vicky decided to go ahead and book in for a consultation at The Private Clinic and about a month later she booked in for surgery.

Despite finding the no exercise for 6 weeks post-surgery rule challenging, Vicky has said it was all worth it for how confident she now feels.

“My confidence was high and I felt amazing but the real achievement here is the fact that I finally feel like a women. Not a young girl missing something”

Abdominoplasty – Barbara

November 13, 2017 by

After having two children, Barbara found herself with excess skin around her lower abdomen. After meeting with Mr Adrian Richards she decided to go ahead with an abdominoplasty to remove the excess skin.

“I’d say it changed me by making me more comfortable in my own skin and more appreciative of my body.”

During her pregnancy Barbarba had carried large babies that sat basically outside of her own body cavity. Her previous 26 inch waist grew to 45 inches over 9 months which left Barbara with substantial diastasis recti otherwise known as a separation of the abdominal muscles. This, alongside the sagging abdominal skin and a C-section scar left Barbara with an unwanted abdominal bulge.

Despite Barbara’s strong exercise routine and toned muscles underneath, she was still left with a body that she felt unhappy with.

Tired with carrying around the excess skin she knew that an abdominoplasty or tummy tuck surgery was the only way she was going to be able to repair the muscles and remove the excess skin.

“I was tired of looking like I was 3 months pregnant after eating a meal! I had spent 17 years waiting for the perfect opportunity to go ahead with surgery so after months of research I finally decided to take the plunge and booked in with Mr Adrian Richards for abdominoplasty surgery”

Since having surgery Barbara finally feels a joy in getting dressed without having to consider how to hide her abdomen, and is thankful that she no longer feels the need to suck in her stomach after enjoying a meal.

“The initial feeling is unreal, I was finally able to run my hands across my flat stomach and feeling the skin against my muscles brought a massive smile to my face. I am now more comfortable of my own skin and much more appreciate of my body.”

We asked Barbara what she should say to someone in her shoes thinking about an abdominoplasty;

Research! Always do your research to firstly find out if this is the best option for you. If it is then make sure you only see an experienced, top rated plastic surgeon who you not only feel comfortable with but work within a results-proven clinic that is specialised in the procedure you are considering.

And how would you sum up your surgical experience?
If I could only use one word it would be ‘Phenomenal!’

From my first meeting with Mr Richards and his staff, to the day of surgery and all the care I received post-op… they all exceeded my expectations. The bedside manner of the team was amazing and that was so important to me. They made sure I understood the procedure and the care plan was very clearly explained to me, so I knew exactly what I should be doing, and what to expect at all times.

I was no stranger to surgery and the aftercare needed after having two c-sections myself, but I must credit Mr Richard’s skills as in comparison. I had very little pain and my surgical scar is able to be well hidden in my bikini area. I am so happy I chose Mr Richards and his team for my surgical care – my only regret is not doing it sooner!
