Discuss your concerns
Explain what you would like to discuss and what matters to you. Your surgeon considers your goals alongside relevant medical history and examination findings.
Your consultation starts with your concerns, anatomy and medical history—not a predetermined procedure. We take a considered approach to discussing what may be appropriate for you.

Treatment recommendations are based on your individual circumstances and stated goals. No procedure is assumed until a thorough consultation has taken place.
A first consultation typically includes a discussion of your medical history, a physical examination and, where appropriate, clinical photography to support planning and later review.
