Travelling to Clinic Beaucare in Belgium!

$3,900
So I've finally done it! I've paid the full amount for my boob job to be performed on 26 February with Dr Ullens and Clinic Beaucare in Belgium! After an absolutely horrific consultation with MYA, (for which I'm still getting DAILY sales calls AFTER I told them I don't want to proceed!!!!) I went for my consultation last week with Mr Vrambout from Beaucare. I believe he is the surgeon who travels to the UK to meet with patients before they book. He was wonderful (although my op won't be with him), really friendly, put me at ease and was completely open to answering all my questions. He even prompted me to ask more when he thought there might be more on my mind that I was holding back on asking! I was so pleased that the next day I contacted wonderful Helga at reception and got a date booked in. Today I made my payment so ITS HAPPENING!!
So I'm 5'6-5'7, size 8, and a very small A cup. I'm looking to go to about a C although this can mean almost anything so I'm going to bring pictures to Dr Ullens as apparently that's the best way for her to gauge what size I need. Mr Vrambout suggested 300cc but this will all be decided when I meet with Dr Ullens on the day and she can analyse my frame and what she feels will work. I've seen so many great reviews and pictures that I completely trust her with choosing that! Though I'd love to hear if there are any girls out there with similar frame and what you went for?
Similarly, has anyone booked in for BA with Beaucare at all? Past or future?! I used this site heavily for research so I'd love to give back!!

January 17, 2016
Hey hey, yes I will definitely be posting pictures! Haven't got round to taking before pictures yet but I will put them on here once I have :-) then after I want to upload pics like most other people have, straight after the op, 1 week, 2 weeks, etc! Xx
January 17, 2016
Oh wow im so excited for you. And me ha ha. My consult on23rd feb. Please post a wish pic! [RS bleep]
January 17, 2016
I'm so excited too! I'm just so nervous about implant size but I will leave that in the hands of the surgeon. Have you had any other consultations so far? I just uploaded before pics and am currently collecting wish pics lol xx

Hi I'm getting my ba done with beaucare in March. How was everything for you. Did they make you feel comfortable and I've read a few reviews that some people ended up with a different size that they requested. Did you at any time feel pressured? Xx
February 16, 2016
Hey :) Only had the consultation so far, so I will update you after my op on 26 Feb. So far it's been great though, the consultation was very thorough and answered all my questions straight to the point, no "sales-y" attitude, just facts! As a result I felt absolutely no pressure at all. With MYA they were so sales driven that I felt like they'd already booked me in for the op before I'd even left! And reception have been great with my seemingly endless questions I email over. But as mentioned I'll update this review after my op :) XX
February 26, 2016
I don't know if this message is for me but it came up as a reply! If it is the yes I'm in March too!! On the 7th tad nervous now got 9 days left my! I've got dr Ina Vrints. Haven't heard much about her but seen a few review none of which are bad so hopefully she will make me happy lol xx
February 12, 2016

February 25, 2016
Yay!! I'm in Brussels now, mine is tomorrow (12 hours from now I'll have just gone under!!) and I'm pooing my pants lol. I'll let you know how it goes!
February 26, 2016
Oh my gosh go girl!! I will have to wait 4 more weeks till i get there! What doc you having #beaucare! #cantwait! Xx
February 26, 2016
Haha I'm so nervous! I'm having Dr Ulens :) running late though, didn't realise the trains to the clinic were so infrequent! My first piece of advice has to be make sure you leave plenty of time haha!! Xx
February 26, 2016
In the waiting room now...it's absolutely lush! Never seen anything like it!

Just a quick question how comes yours are costing that much as i been on thier site as im going to be getting mine with them and it says 2200 all in
February 25, 2016
I put $3900 as that coverts to roughly £2800, which includes surgery at £2200 and then plenty of extra for the Eurostar and my accommodation, food, taxi's etc. In reality it's actually cost me less than that so far but when I set up to review I thought I'd be generous :)
February 25, 2016
I think they might be upping their prices soon as the Belgian government is introducing a special tax on surgeries or something, I don't know because I paid before whenever it came in (if it's even came in yet) but I think it was something like 20%? I guess they would be able to tell you more about it. Still miles cheaper though!
February 25, 2016
Yeah im excited to see your surgery cause im booking at christmas and getting the earliest available appointment they have so i can get them done as soon as .. Are you having dual plane or are you going behind muscle x

I went 300 cc and wish I would have gone a little bigger. It is alot to go thru so make it worth it.
Best of luck!
Best of luck!

I forgot to ever reply to this, thank you so much for your advice, I remembered it when I was sat in the room and went for 335 which was the biggest I could reasonably go with my frame and I'm so glad, any smaller and I would have been sooooooo disappointed. So a very delayed thank you!

GOOD LUCK!!

Life has been getting in the way recently with too many things for me to worry about. I am SO excited for week off work - even if I will be in pain!! But I now have just over a week til my operation....eeeeeek
It's all beginning to dawn on me and where before I was so excited, I'm now actually quite nervous! No regrets at all (I'm still majorly excited, it feels like the build up to boobie christmas), just beginning to realise that this is actually happening!! I keep having dreams that something goes wrong, or it ends up nothing like I expected...maybe that's not helping my nerves?!
I've attached some wish pics to show the kind of thing I'm aiming for. I have a really tiny frame and everyone is used to seeing me with literally zero boob, so I've picked pictures that are on the smaller side because I'm not looking to go very big anyway. I will speak with Dr Ullens on the day and see if she thinks my frame could suit bigger, but if not, I'd be happy with these!
I've heard Dr Ullens is brilliant with making sure it's all natural, and not letting you go bigger than would suit your frame. I hope that's right!

So excited For u i am next! 24th march same place!
February 20, 2016
Ah yay!! Have you had your consultation? This time next week I'll be able to give you a full review ;) and the surgeon at my consultation suggested 300-330cc but will be decided on the day as to what will suit my frame xx
February 20, 2016
I Think we will have similar out comes i have my consultation nexts weds, but i was so confident i paid in full already! Lol at Transform clinic they suggested 340 for my frame but i think i am starting to have a lil boob greed looking at everyones review! Lol xx
February 24, 2016
Haha that's my fear... I'm getting worried about sizes but I know I should leave that in the hands of the surgeon and stop panicking! I have no idea what they'll end up going for lol
February 24, 2016
Had my consultation today? On my notes i am down to pick between 350 & 400 on the day. Ekkk! I need to.choose!
February 24, 2016
I wouldn't worry about that so much, the surgeon will know what's best for you on the day, that's what you pay them for!! But I can't really talk I've been freaking out about cc size for weeks haha!! Did your consultation go ok? X
February 25, 2016
Same! Not sure what to do after though the clinic said I would be easier if I got a local train and then a 5min taxi xx
February 26, 2016
I'm staying in central Brussels, but we got a train to Vilvoorde this morning and actually walked to the clinic as there were no taxis outside and I was running late!
So glad you've started your review and congratulations on making your payment for your surgery. We would love to see any pictures you bring to your doctor. Feel free to join the February 2016 breast augmentation surgery forum for some pre and post support. Keep us posted!
Thank you for sharing your before pictures. It looks like you have plenty of breast tissue for implants and great results!
