So happy with my results just two weeks after

I had surgery 2 weeks ago with Elanic and my experience has been nothing but 10/10. Vivek, my surgeon was extremely knowledgable and recommended exactly what he thought would be the most suitable for me. Katie on reception is an asset to Elanic, she was amazing even after I returned for my weeks review she ensured to check in with me. Kim was the theatre nurse on the day of my surgery and put me extremely at ease pre and post op. Even afterwards when I felt I was in a lot of pain the on call team were great aswell as Tracey the nurse in the clinic. So happy with my results just two weeks after. I recommend anyone who’s thinking of having cosmetic procedures to definitely use Elanic.

Breast Implants

I have been thinking about getting implants for a few years

37, 5ft 2, 147lb, 1 kid. I have been thinking about getting implants for a few years, I breastfed my daughter and since then my breast have never been the same. I have my surgery booked for Saturday, I am excited and nervous, I am going for 350cc high profile dual plane, I am currently a B and looking to be a D after the surgery. I have some before pics, will upload post op pics after sat. Updated on 15 Mar 2020: Today was the day of my surgery, I hardly slept last night I was excited but also nervous. The op went well the surgeon and his staff were amazing.I have a tight feeling but no sharp pains, they look great and I am really happy with them. Updated on 16 Mar 2020: Still feeling sore and tight, I can now see some bruising, not getting much pain from the scar. I am finding It difficult to get up in the morning and not using my arms to push me up but my stomach mussels are getting a work out so it’s not too bad. Sensation is starting to come back on the left not there yet on the right. Updated on 27 Mar 2020: I am starting to feel like I am getting back to normal now, I can wash my hair on my own and I don’t feel as restricted. I got the dressings off 3 days ago and heeling really well, did take an allergic reaction to the dressings the rash is starting to disappear. I still feel heavy when I first get up, I am still sleeping elevated for now. The bottom of my breasts still feel numb the feeling is slowly coming back and my nipples are a lot more sensitive, bruising is slowly going too. Another 4 weeks in the support bra, it’s actually really comfy. Updated on 3 May 2020: Over 10 weeks post op feeling great l, still a little tender at times, scars are healing well. Will see the surgeon at 3 months to make sure all heading as expected

Mentor Breast Implants

CatherineHD

23 Years Olds. 5ft6. 1 Child. 400cc Moderate Plus Profile Dual Plane

I have wanted a B/A since I was a teenager. I didn't develop fully and have always been self conscious of my boobs. After I had a child they looked even worse so I decided that enough was enough and booked a consultation with Dr Vivek Sivarajan who works at Elanic. All of the staff were very friendly and made me feel at ease. Felicity my nurse was absolutely lovely and she did my vectra scan and helped me decide what implants would be best for the look I wanted to achieve. I opted for local anisthetic under sedation as it's the safer option and I am so glad I did. I went to Glasgow on Monday night and stayed over in a hotel ready for my op at 1045 on Tuesday. I had to fast for 6 hours before hand which was absolutely fine and then go in to get prepped for surgery. A nurse took me through the back of the clinic and I had to get into my gown and hair net then go through a bit more paper work once I was ready. Dr Vivek came through and marked my chest ready for the implants. I had chosen 400cc moderate plus as I loved the look of a wider implant and had also seen lots of reviews on real self of other girls similar body shape and size to me who had them done. I was then taken through to the surgery by the theatre manager who made me feel very calm and reassured. The anaesthetist then put the line into my hand and told me that the drugs would make me feel sleepy. Next thing I remember was coming round from the sedation and having a new pair of boobs! I was in pain but absolutely delighted that it had finally happened. I was given pain meds and left to chill out in recovery for a couple of hours before I could go back to the hotel I was staying at with my mum and sister. I felt very tight and swollen but it's bareavle with the medication you are given. I propped my pillows up in the hotel and ended up falling in and out of sleep all night. In the morning I went back to the clinic to get a nurse to check me over to make sure I was fit to head back home. Everything was absolutely fine so I just had to wait for an appointment a week later (at my own gp) to get my dressings changed. The more time passes the better that I feel and although I am only 8 days post op I can honestly say it was the best decision I have ever made to get this done. It has already done wonders for my confidence and it just keeps getting better ever day. If there's anyone like me who has been researching it and reading all of the reviews on here then I think you should just go for it and book a consultation!

Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation 450ccHP

After losing a lot of weight I was left with nothing but a bit of excess skin on my chest, I also have a very prominent 'pigeon' chest and my ribs stick out abnormally (not a lot going for me at this point) my body shape was awful and boxy and like a boy. I decided that breast implants would help mask those issues. The only part that worried me was the surgery itself, and all the staff at Elanic were perfect in putting my mind at ease. I'm a week post op and I am so so glad I did it! The surgery was fantastic! No pain, just a pressure on my chest. After a week I'm now off all pain medication and feel amazing. I would honestly go through that surgery 100 times! So glad I did it. Surgery was done under local anaesthetic, spent 3 hours in a recovery room after surgery then was allowed home. I can't stress enough how fantastic the staff at Elanic were, if you're planning this and are worried about the surgery, honestly, do it under local and just go for it! The immediate difference in my body shape has given me so much more confidence! Only con I have is my own worry, I know they take months to settle but I'm currently worried one is bigger than the other, I'm only one week out so I'm trying not to panic too much about it though. Updated on 29 Mar 2018: Updated on 4 Apr 2018: Two weeks post op! Absolutely delighted would be an understatement - I'm still off work until Monday and going out of my mind 'taking it easy' but I know I need to even if I feel okay. Took my dressings off yesterday and everything is fine in that department as well - the itching has stopped as well thank god. So happy, just patiently waiting for the 6 week Mark to get back to the gym! Updated on 10 Apr 2018: 3 weeks post op - delighted, they just look buyer be better every day! Updated on 28 Apr 2018: 6 weeks post op and today I got measured for a bra for the first time ever - 32FF! Absolutely insane haha I'm so happy, even though I only expected around a DD haha Had my 6 week review with Felicity and everything is okay! She said it's totally normal for one breast to be different to the other at this stage and I have nothing to worry about so that's put my mind at ease about that. They feel amazing still - I'm still quite nervous about sleeping without a bra on? Im going to sleep in one of my sports bras tonight just to put me at ease Managed a workout tonight as well - essentially did just over my usual warm up because again I was too nervous to do much more - and I'm just going to ease myself back into it slowly - feel fantastic now though and my breasts look incredible in a normal bra! So happy it's unreal Updated on 22 Jun 2018: 13 weeks post op now. Scars are great, I'm not overly fussed by them if I'm honest so not using anything special or fancy on them, just moisturizing really and bio oil. Not totally symmetric but definitely better, my left boob is beautiful, not 100% happy with the right but definitely not as bad as it was I've been getting some discomfort in my chest when I'm sleeping and my nipples occasionally hurt because they are so sensitive, looked it up on here and it seems most people get this and it's just the nerves coming back. There's nothing I'm concerned about anyway. Sometimes they feel massive and heavy so I think that's them settling and things because they have definitely gotten bigger looking recently. Measuring at a 32GG now which is ace ???? i actually find they look bigger in a normal t-shirt (covered up) than if I'm wearing something low cut. My over all confident is through the roof now. My whole body image has changed and I absolutely love it. I've found I'm not at the gym as often as i was before (which was 5-6 times a week) now just 2-4 because I'm so happy and comfortable in my body now. Definitely the best decision I've ever made ????

300cc mod +

What a fabulous experience. All staff at Elanic were absolutely amazing. Vivek was the first surgeon I had been too see after finally being able to afford my much needed boob job!! His knowledge, professionalism and honesty know instantly that he was the surgeon for me. I went from being inverted to a 28DD from the use of 300cc mod + implants. My recovery was so easy, minimal pain and my results are absolutely amazing, 100x's better than I could ever imagine! I am now 4month PO and I feel like a new person, bursting with confidence!! Massive thank you to all at Elanic, especially Vivek & my nurse Felicity!!

Mentor Breast Implants

AJay2671

46 YO. Mentor Siltex 400cc HP subglandular / subfacial (on top of muscle) with local and sedation.

I never had boobs until I had my first child. Loved breastfeeding... think that's why I did it for so long! LOL I just adored that full feeling and how feminine I felt for the first time! Now I just feel that I need to be happy with myself. I just turned 46 and if I don't do it now, I never will. Had my consultation over a week ago and I have my pre-op appointment tomorrow!!! :) Surgery booked for Thursday 8th June!!!!! I'm having 400cc round subglandular Mentor gummy bear micro texture silicone implants. Op to be done with local and sedation!!!!!!!!! I know I'm droopy and lopsided but I'm OCD about feelings....and I cannot imagine having different weights of implants on each side!!! I'd also worry myself silly that the wrong size was put in the wrong side!!!! Initially I thought I wanted the anatomical "teardrop" implants and I just talked about them at my consultation. But as soon as I was walking out of the clinic.... I realised that I actually really wanted the round implants. I want the fullness! And it's one less thing to worry about.... if the teardrop implant rotates.... yuk But there's no change if your round implant rotates!! Yay I am a little worried about what example I am setting for my 12 YO daughter..... I just told her today! Updated on 4 Jun 2017: I am having way too much fun playing with my 400cc rice sizers in different tops! If I'm this happy with rice sizers I can't imagine the silly grin on my face after Thursday! 4 sleeps! Updated on 8 Jun 2017: Well today is the day! I've been waiting for this day for years. Ever since I decided not to have any more kids! Had the best nights sleep ever. Unbelievably calm. I'm normally a very nervous person but I'm so sure I'm doing the right thing that I'm totally relaxed. Although that may change when I'm on the operating table!!! LOL Hopefully my last tiny boob pics will upload.... I'm in the car atm. Happy healing to everyone on this BA journey. AJ [RS bleep] Updated on 8 Jun 2017: Cannot believe how good I feel! I felt like I could've gone home less than an hour after my procedure. Seriously, that was an amazing experience. Everyone at Elanic in Bath Street Glasgow was Fantastic, so kind, caring and utterly professional. I highly recommend BA done with local and sedation. I feel awesome! I know it's early. I only got out of surgery at 12.20 and left the surgical centre at 3.30pm. I'm sitting at home now, hubby is running about after me. Nothing new there!!! LOL Love that he's so attentive. Keeping on top of my pain meds. Got hubby to adjust my right surgical bra strap, it just felt that it was pulling my boob too high and the body strap was digging in to my scar. But it's Vetter now. My wonderful surgeon, Mr David McGill is a genius! He doesn't use dressings on the scars.... his sutures are covered with glue! So no need to get dressings changed or removed! He said I can shower as soon as I want! Hopefully my pics will upload. Sorry I didn't remove my bra.... I will do pics with no bra as soon as I'm able. So far I'm absolutely ecstatic with my new boots. Right nipple feels like it swings between hot and cold. I might try some ice packs later. Happy healing everyone! And if anyone has any questions about having BA without a general....just shout! <3 Updated on 8 Jun 2017: Pics didn't upload earlier so I took some more and I'll try again! Still absolutely over the moon with my new boobs. Thanks to this wonderful website I know not to be alarmed at the slight "frankenboob". I am confident that they will drop and fluff beautifully. I can't stop smiling! I can't stop looking at them! And I can't Thank all the RS contributors enough! Updated on 9 Jun 2017: Didn't suffer morning boob because I never got up! LOL But I did get burning sensation at the side boob. Pleased to report I can still feel both nipples. Lefty is a bit numb like it's had a shot of novacane but Mr Right is completely normal feeling! Can hardly see my scars... haven't dared wash yet so it's hard to tell what's pen, what's scar and what's glue! Feel a bit stiff but it's very early days! Still happy and still grin like a Cheshire cat when I look down and see my new boobies! Love them! Updated on 11 Jun 2017: I feel amazing! Incisions still a bit sore and boobs alternate between stiff/ sore to soft and lovely! They are over muscle but it feels like they have spasms. Love my new boobs. Love looking at them and I Love the feel of them. My PS did an amazing job as I can't even feel or see the implants! I'm a very happy bunny! As a point of interest I'm 5'10" 86kg and had Mentor Siltex 400cc silicone (12.5cm round 5.3cm projection) subglandular inframammary incision. Updated on 11 Jun 2017: Here are my pics for the end of day 3 post op. I am in love with my boobs. I've asked the Doctors about drop & fluff as I am over the muscle I am wondering what else I can expect from them!? I'd be perfectly happy if they just stayed like this from now on! LOL I am still getting boob spasm now and again but ice packs get rid of it. I'm not sure either if I have less swelling with over muscle??? Have my post op review with the nurse next Saturday. I'm so happy with everything! I'm so lucky. I wish for everyone to be as happy with their boobs as I am. AJ [RS bleep] Updated on 11 Jun 2017: All my life I have had a squinted rib cage. I was bullied at school about it. Every time I mentioned it at medical I was told when I "developed breasts" they would hide it. Sadly that never happened. All that's happened is that the breast I did manage to grow on that side was pushed off to the side! This was particularly pronounced when my breasts got real droopy after breastfeeding. I'm so happy that my new boobs have managed to disguise this malformation. But this is the reason why no matter how big my boobs are.... they will never come completely together and the nipples won't face front and centre! Updated on 15 Jun 2017: Feels like I've really turned a corner! It's only been a week but I feel awesome. I sat in a lovely Epsom salt bath then hubby showered me down and washed my hair. I have scar prevention tape but to be honest there is still too much surgical glue on my scars. I thought it might come off in the bath!! Got my post op appointment on Saturday - maybe they'll have something to help remove it. No pain killers needed now and thank goodness I can move my bowel now! Absolutely love my new boobs. All my clothes look amazing on me now.... even in my surgical bras! LOL I think I have a very good result especially given my twisted rib cage and droopy boobs! I can lift my arms up and there is absolutely no separation of implant and boob. And I love the slope, I think for round implants they look quite real and they still have to soften! They definitely feel like me! Updated on 17 Jun 2017: So it was my post op appointment today. Once again, everyone at Elanic Glasgow has been Fantastic. I cannot recommend Elanic highly enough. Had some pics done and my lovely nurse had some Great advice especially for going on my holiday and looking after my new boobs! She even thinks they are looking great!!! Which makes me sooooo happy I can't really believe that it's only been 9 days! I've made a wee collage so hopefully it will upload 1st time. Oh yeah and I checked out my Implant ID card and I have High Profiles!!! I Love them. Happy Healing everyone [RS bleep] Updated on 20 Jun 2017: Gorgeous sunny day today and I got my new boobs out for their first taste of summer! Lovely and soft already. They move like real boobs and even fall to the side when I'm flat on my back. I always wanted a natural look. I'm not even 2 weeks post op but already feel Fantastic Updated on 28 Jun 2017: 34F OMG Cannot believe how much I love my boobs! And boy I never thought I'd ever say those words! Wonderfully soft, they move very naturally and push together beautifully. Every woman deserves to be this happy with their body! Best thing I've ever done! Updated on 28 Jun 2017: Updated on 9 Jul 2017: We that's me and my puppies on holiday! No, seriously I brought my 3 doggies!!! LOL All joking aside, I am loving sunbathing with my new boobs! Open air of course! I have heard that sunshine and scars don't mix but to be honest my scars look great! I have 2 C-section scars that got sunlight early on and they are almost invisible! Maybe I just have good skin! I am rubbing Vitamin E oil with 4 drops of Frankincense essential oil into my scars. Vitamin E oil on my breasts and nipples. They are really soft and utterly natural looking. Haven't hit the beach yet but for the first time ever.... I'm not frightened ? Wishing everyone a super Hot Sexy Summer! Updated on 11 Aug 2017: That had to be the fastest 6 weeks of my life! Back to real life.... and the typical Scottish weather! :( Looking at joining a different Health Club... one with a gym this time (not just the saunas and steam rooms) LOL Feel more at ease to wear tight clothes and to lose weight. Weird right... but I was scared to lose weight in case I lost what little breast volume I had!!! Worry no more! Health kick here I come! Breasts just feel like they're mine! Really soft and bouncy. I am going to look after these girlies... good support at all times (well when I'm not sunbathing topless that is LOL) Anyway... all being well my pics will upload. Hope everyone is healing well and feeling super sexy with your new bodies! Love to all [RS bleep] Updated on 1 Sep 2017: Just had my 3 month check up with my lovely PS. He is as happy as I am with my results! I love my BA and I cannot recommend Mr David McGill at Elanic in Bath Street Glasgow Highly enough! He offered to see me again in 6 months... but to be honest, I can't see a reason why! I know they are always there for me should I need them. I also have the enhanced warranty with Mentor and my PS. A small price to pay for complete piece of mind! I wish everyone such a smooth and happy journey as I have had! Life is too short & precious to waste it not being happy with ourselves! Go for it!

Smart Lipo

jaydalexandra

27, No Children, Smart Lipo in 5 Areas

Hi everyone, Just thought I would share my experience with you all. I had smart lipo 2 days ago with local anaesthetic and sedation and although I am in my garment and I am very swollen and bruised I have no doubt whatsoever that this procedure is going to be life changing. I can already see the results, my incisions are tiny, and overall my pain is manageable. I cannot believe my luck! I chose Elanic Clinic in Glasgow and could not speak more highly of my experience. The staff are fantastic, so genuine and friendly, my surgeon Vivek Sivarajan put me at ease and I can already tell he has worked wonders! If anyone in Scotland is considering this procedure you must contact them! I have attached photos and will update as I progress. Updated on 12 Nov 2016: Still feeling really sore and swollen but gained back a lot of mobility. I am very bruised also but I haven't looked at my body properly as I'm very squeamish. I am starting to develop hard lumps in all of the areas I had the surgery but I am assured this is normal. The results are getting better and better each day and I can see that the shape of my body has changed so much! 5 more weeks to go until the big reveal :) Updated on 17 Nov 2016: Hi everyone, I'm two weeks after my smart lipo procedure in 5 areas and I am very lumpy and swollen. I seem to be so much more swollen now than I was a week ago and I'm worried? I have been eating a very low carb diet (40-50g per day maximum) so it can't be weight gain. I know I'm going to be swollen for a long time and I was expecting that, but I'm just worried that the swelling seems to be increasing? Also, all of my lower abdomen is one big hard lump, is that normal?

Breast Augmentation

pinkorchid81

34 Years Old. Correction for Tuberous Breast with Breast Augmentation - Glasgow, GB

I found the team at Elanic really professional and friendly. The environment is welcoming and relaxing and a lot of time was spent with me in my pre op consultation to help me make an informed decision on what was right for me. There was no pressure to book, but having had the 3d vectra scan and having discussed my own personal needs with Vivek I felt confident that the outcome would be a good one. I had my surgery 6 days ago under local aneasthetic with sedation and am healing really well and pleased with the outcome so far. I definitely recommend Vivek and the team at Elanic and have found the whole experience a good one... Just wish I'd done it years ago!!!

Breast Implants

29 Year Old. 1 Baby. 34b Post Op 480uhp Silicone Overs - Glasgow, GB

I had my surgery done by Vivek sivarajan at Elanic in Glasgow. From the first consultation to the surgery itself my experience was second to none. I was made feel very comfortable and felt like I had known the staff forever! Only downside was that after my surgery i felt like there should have been more check ups and that I should have been given a bit more advice on aftercare however a phone call with a few questions sorted that out. I would definitely recommend both surgeon and clinic.

Breast Reduction

Phenomenal882993

Extremely unhappy with my results

I chose elanic as they had great reviews but I can say I am extremely unhappy with my results. Your supposed to get an uplift with reduction and I know I didn't get one. My surgeon was not interested in my concerns, Elanic are just happy to take money from you they are not interested whether the patient is happy or not I would advise against this clinic
