Gynecomastia surgery with Dr Alex Karidis Jan 2017

Finally writing my review of Dr Alex Karidis, whom I had Gynecomastia excision and liposuction with, back in January 2017. I first had my initial consultation for the procedure in December 2016, at the Karidis clinic attached to St Johns Wood Hospital in London. The clinic itself is slick, modern and feels very professional which ran parallel to my overall consultation experience. Contrasting to a previous doctor I saw, I didn't feel Dr Karidis played up to any insecurities I

Ultherapy and Botox - London, GB

I am a 56 year old female and have just had Ultherapy (lower face and neck) and Botox (3 areas). The procedure was at a London clinc which had been recommended to me. I was very apprehensive as had been told the treatment was very painful, and yes it was, but not unbearable. I was given painkillers 40 mins before treatment and gas and air during treatment. I have a thin face, high cheekbones, and felt that i was not yet a ready for surgery, but wanted a treatment that would give

Coming out, Explanted!!!!!! - London, United Kingdom

I guess the best place to start is the beginning, so here goes - grab yourself a cuppa and a biscuit or two!! From a young age I didn't like my boobs, not just that they were small, but I didn't like the shape either, especially the position of my nips. I had always wanted a boob job, but in reality didn't imagine I would ever have one. And then my mum had surgery. So I actually knew a real life person who had plastic surgery, not that any of this is her fault, just that

Almost 8 Months After Explant & No Looking Back!

Hi all fellow explanters and explanters-to-be. I am due to be 'freed' of fakery in 8 days. YEH. I had my silicone gel 310cc implants done 9 years ago by Alex Karidis at St John St Elizabeth Hopsital. I was almost 31 at the time and had long researched it as had wanted them since I was a 17 as I was teased at school, felt inadequate, and as I got older and after having my 2 kids - out of proportion. I put on weight anywhere but my bust :(. I was married at the time of BA and

Went to a 34D at first but as time has gone by and put on a bit of weight and ot older i am now a 36E and they feel very heavy. Started having pain in them a few months before pip scandal broke but ultasound and mri tests came back all clear. Went back to original surgeon and explained about problems

Results Already - Pain Bearable (For Me) - London, UK

I had the first part of the procedure done a week ago, done by a highly experienced and very professional nurse technician at a plastic surgeon's office. I had done a lot of research, so knew what to expect - including the pain. I have a pretty high pain threshold, but was worried at my consultation when she told me all they use are oral painkillers, co-codamol and gas+air. I still chose to proceed, and don't regret it for a second. It certainly stung near the jaw and cheekbone

Not worth the money. Save for a facelift

I had Ulthera done yesterday on lower face and neck (in London, where the procedure is still relatively new). I'm 41 and just this year my skin appears to be losing elasticity and my face is becoming more square at the jaw. During the consultation the doctor scared me a lot about the pain (and the technician who performed the procedure confessed that she was not going to do it herself because of the pain factor, even though she definitely needed it if you know what i mean).
