Linia Cosmetic Surgery - London

I had a terrible experience with Linia. I was encouraged to have an uplift when having my breast implants removed, despite being told by other surgeons since that they cannot understand why this was recommended to me before seeing how my breast tissue settled afterwards. Both breasts have been lifted way too high with no real way of reversing this, and my areolas have been left the size they were when my breasts were 7 cup sizes larger, so they look horrendous on my smaller breasts. When I asked Mr Irshad what could be done he started suggesting I had a cosmetic tattooer tattoo a "skin colour" over the areolas?! He just kept reiterating that I'd had a "great result" despite me very clearly being left deformed. One of my breasts has an extremely obvious dent in the tissue which he also said wasn't a problem in his opinion and all he could suggest was a fat transfer but I'd need to pay for this myself. He also put me off complaining, assuring me that my breasts would need at least a few years to fully settle... well surprise surprise, they look even worse now! Surgeons should not be allowed to say this to patients, as they know full well you only have 3 years to bring a legal complaint against them and you effectively timebar yourself from complaining by waiting. To add insult to injury, I've been requesting my patient file via a DSAR for over 2 months now and they simply ignore my emails. I've had to report them to the ICO who've now opened an investigation. If you don't want to be left deformed and ignored after surgery, please pay a little bit extra money and go ANYWHERE else but here. I wish I could go back in time and choose another surgeon to put my trust in.

I seen Linia Mr Aslam twice, originally to fix a damaged nose. The first attempt he got it wrong and on the second he completely destroyed my nose. Mr Aslam has taken so much dorsum bone off that it can never be fixed. Mr Aslam has left me with a huge deviated septum which I’ve had five specialist rhinoplasty surgeons say “what has he done” he just taken Huge Chuck off. It cannot be fixed. Linia do not care and have no intrest at all in the problem as they are very rude on the phone and it has been 4 months and they still haven’t sent my clinical notes. They left me with no nose and looking weird. I cannot go out, I do have any pictures of myself, I do not see people made very unsociable. I despise how I look. Please choose someone else Mr Aslam Linia cannot be trusted Updated on 29 May 2021: This was 18 months after, When I went for the surgery, I said I want to get this right I don’t want to be here again. He never explained that he would be leaving big scars under my nose. If he told what he had planned, I never would have had it done. This doesn’t look natural like he said.

I’ve wanted bigger breasts since I was around 15 due to always feeling self conscious and always wanting to feel more feminine, I had my consultation and after seeing the very natural results of the surgeons work, and I’m booked in for March 22nd, torn between 375cc and 400cc which is the max he said I could have, I have quite broad shoulders and I’m currently a small 32B, although I’ve never been officially sized! This forum has helped me massively, and I’m hoping I can help girls considering this procedure too! I’ll update my journey as I go! Updated on 6 Jan 2021: So I was told by a few people and also at my consultation that the rice test was a really good thing to do to get a rough idea of what the implant will look and how heavy it'll be, I tried today and although it's a rough idea it's helped me kind of make my mind up so now I am swaying more towards the 400cc implant after trying this... Updated on 22 Mar 2021: So I’ve literally been back from surgery for an hour now, I feel absolutely fine when I first came around for 20 minutes I felt a bit tired but after eating and drinking I feel great! It does feel very heavy on your chest but the tightness of the post op bra kinda helps that’s feeling, they are very hard but as I’ve learnt to not even make the impression they’ll stay like this, anyone scared of going under anaesthetic DONT BE, it’s a blur I was in there for an hour in total and it was like I went for a 5 minute nap. STATS So I’m 5ft 5, I am 64kg small B cup, band size 32, I went for 375cc motiva; over the muscle; mod profile Progress pictures to follow! Updated on 22 Mar 2021: Okay so I was definitely naive about the pain, now that the aesthetic has worn off I am taking my medication as regularly as I can (with alarms) because the pain is a 7/10 for sure, it's an muscular aching tight pain! But it's bearable, and I am a big baby! Sleeping sitting up is fine, V shape pillow is a god send along with 4 other pillows. My pill collection is getting wider with the pain relief; arnica (also a must, start taking a week before) and Vitamin C (take after not before) with these meds already the obvious is happening constipation(tmi) causing my stomach to be hella bloated maybe be good idea get some laxatives or prunes. As for pictures taking the bra off is definitely not happening because without the support of a good bra I'm sure my pain would shoot up to 10, you’re gonna need someone to look after you 100% bending down is a no no. Any questions I’m happy to answer. Updated on 24 Mar 2021: So I woke up this morning and the pain is very minimal probably like 3/10 complete change from yesterday! Still feels heavy of course, although I will keep on top of my pain meds! So I managed to take the bra off and take a quick photo and I was super happy with what I can see even though it’s only the second day. The dressings are itchy as hell but apart from that I have zero complaints the first day is the worst, and I have a feeling it’s only going to keep getting easier Updated on 27 Mar 2021: I’ve noticed they’re coming close together now which I’m super happy about. I used this website beforehand for research and no one warns you about the itchiness! It’s to do with the skin stretching and the dressings combined but this has caused a slight skin tear which you can see in the picture with cream applied it’s nothing to worry about as it’s not near the incisions, just be warned because I was not! Vaseline or sudocrem helps a lot Updated on 1 Apr 2021: I’m in absolute love, best decision I’ve ever for sure! Today marks 10 days and they really do feel like mine now rather than a foreign object, they’re not as hard anymore and thankfully my nipple sensation is beginning to come back which is one of the things I was worried about, my dressings get changed at the 2 week mark I’ll be interested to see how the scars will look. But if you considering it, DO IT. I mean boob greed is a real thing but I wanted natural and mine are exactly that so just use your gut instinct! Updated on 9 Apr 2021: So yesterday I got the dressings change and managed to have a look the scars which I was surprisingly okay with... when I change my dressings myself next week I will share the pictures. I brought a new support bra today and I am sizing at a 32D at the moment although I can’t wear a normal pretty bra for 3 months. So the wounds are healed but now they need to start to turn into scars- and soon I’ll start applying creams etc. The massaging will begin soon although, overall my whole experience has been amazing and every day I look at my new breasts I just smile, best decision I’ve ever made! Updated on 18 Apr 2021: So this is me 4 weeks after surgery, there’s absolutely no discomfort the implants truly do feel like a part of me, and that they are mine now! I can bathe and fully emerge the wounds in water, I’m applying cream to the wounds so they scar nicely and then I will start applying bio oil or something similar I also use a hair dryer on cool to fully dry the wounds after a bath (as advised by my surgeon), I am okay with the scarring I thought I would dislike them a lot more! But they’re barely noticeable an as my breasts drop more the less and less visible they will be. I cannot stress enough to go with your gut instinct on size, a lot of friends said to me to go the biggest you can to get your money’s worth, but no! Listen to your gut, I feel like mine are looking more and more natural as the days go by and the confidence and happiness I now have already! Is actually unbelievable, it’s simply life changing and that may sound silly but having a insecurity vanish is an unbeatable feeling, nothing compares! Updated on 30 Apr 2021:

Booked for a consultation with surgeon on 19th March! Can't wait I'm just worried about what he can do for me and if good results are even achievable with the state of my deflated small breasts. I would really like to just have a round implant c/d to fill me out and create upper volume but not sure if doctor would suggest if I need a lift also. There isn't much tissue in my breast to lift but obviously the skin is droopy. If anyone with a similar position to me could guide me and show pics of their success would be great :-) I'm looking at getting around 300cc. Updated on 28 Jul 2020: Hello, I had my surgery yesterday in London’s with linia clinic under the care of Dr Irshad. Staff were fantastic and made me feel very safe and relaxed. I had local anaesthetic and a light sedation and was awake, I felt very well during the procedure and seemed to go very quickly. I had 355cc in left and 375cc in right. Round silicon motiva implants over the muscle. I left the hospital at 8:30pm with antibiotics, paracetamol and ibuprofen. Slept very well upright. Did feel abit sick when I got up and walked around. Didn’t have too much pain, just a bit uncomfortable and struggle to move my arms. Feeling tired today. Been told to keep my bra and dressings on until my check up. Had a little peek, they look huge but I’m happy so far, a lot better than my old ones!!! Looking forward to seeing how they change Updated on 29 Jul 2020: Still feel sore, and taking pain killers. My back pain is horrendous from sleeping on my back! I was sick this morning, kinda feel like I have morning sickness, which comes on when I’m hungry or haven’t had my pain killers for a while. I have taken a sneaky peak at my breasts today. Still very swollen. My nipples look massive. I’m hoping my nipples will elevate Abit more once the implants drop. Updated on 29 Jul 2020: Updated on 29 Jul 2020: Updated on 30 Jul 2020: Felt much better this morning, no sickness. And pain a lot better. Boobs still abit sore when moving, especially near the incisions. The warmth from my breasts is settling which may mean the inflammation is settling. I’m already happy with how they are looking in comparison to my old ones, no more wrinkles, flatness, and stretch marks have smoothed out and disappeared. I’m hoping once the implant drops and fluffs abit more my nipples will slightly elevate up a bit. Although not too worried, as I knew my nipples would be a bit low as I didn’t have a lift. My main goal was to get more roundness, better shape and fullness to my breasts. Updated on 30 Jul 2020: Updated on 30 Jul 2020: Starting to appreciate how much better they are than my previous set of boobs! Updated on 30 Jul 2020: Updated on 1 Aug 2020: *Feeling great, now off the pain relief. *Sleeping on back at night is fine. Managing to do light house work. *Showering waste down, keeping the br on during shower, able to wash my hair, kneeling over the shower cubicle! *really started to feel Iv made the best decision at the right time. Really pleased with my results so far, especially since I had no lift. Can’t wait to have my dressings removed and can go shopping for new clothes to compliment my new girls *over the muscle, motiva silicone round smooth, 355cc and 375cc implants, with no lift. 31 years old after breastfeeding 3 kids Updated on 2 Aug 2020: Feeling good, no longer in pain meds. Iv had to keep my dressings on until my follow up appointment which is in 8 days! Can’t wait t get them off for a better visual. But happy with the way they are taking shape everyday. Less swollen, more rounder and the nipple are areaola are rising as the implant is dropping. Updated on 3 Aug 2020: Updated on 10 Aug 2020: Having my dressings taking off tomorrow and a post opp check with surgeon. My boobs still feel tender to touch but nothing too painful. One breast is feeling softer the other. There is slight jiggling in my breasts now, but still quite firm. Updated on 22 Oct 2020: Loving my new boobies. Still not got full sensation back, but am feeling something. Im so happy I can now go bra shopping! I was a 32c before my implants, now I’m a 32 E!!!! My implants were motiva 350cc and 375cc! I’m so happy with the results! Especially with no lift involved, they look so much better and give me much more confident. They looks good in bras and clothes Updated on 11 Jan 2021: Here is an update on my implants 6 months in. I have not had any problems. I’m not too keen on what I see in the mirror without a bra on, but nevertheless they are more fuller and a better shape than my pre existing breast. I wasn’t expecting miracles as my boobs were very stretched from breast feeding 3 babies and having one bigger than the other. I couldn’t afford a lift Aswell as implants, and didn’t want to risk further complications. However I’m very happy with appearance in my clothes and bras/bikinis, as before I had no upper pole fullness and I would have a big gap at the top of my bras. I may one day have a lift when they need replacing. Updated on 11 Jan 2021: Updated on 13 Jan 2021: Bra shopping has been hard due to the pandemic, shops shut, and when they are open can’t try on bras or get fitted!! So been ordering online and trying my luck. Atm I’m wearing 32 E bras. Not sure if it’s right but the DD seem to small. Anyway here is how they look in a bra with and without the padding they come with, I get most of my bras from Ann summers Updated on 29 Jan 2021: Iv been having a few doubts about my breasts and starting to think I need a lift and would like my areolas reduced......however not an option atm financially. I’m still pleased with my results as they are no longer just skin hanging they are full and round. However the implants are quite visible on me when lying down especially as I’m very slim at the top. But when I look at my before and after pic I do feel like they look a lot better. And they look lovely in bras sometimes I think maybe I should of gone bigger? But may have not looked right on my frame and could of caused them to droop more I don’t know? I’m definitely thinking of getting a lift sometime in the future when I can afford it along with the Areola reduction as I don’t like how big they are Updated on 31 Jan 2021: I absolutely love shopping for bathing suits and cannot wait to show of my new girls in the summer, and feel confident in my swimsuits I get a lot of side boob in my bikinis, which Iv never had before! Updated on 31 Jan 2021: Feeling confident :) can’t wait for the summer to finally show of my new girls!
