Amazing Results and First Class Care

WORTH IT
I had a breast augmentation a few weeks before Christmas. The results are sensational. I’m a lady of reasonably advanced years and had been thinking of having this op for a few years.

From the first appointment with Mr Hodgkinson I felt reassured that he knew exactly what results I wanted to achieve. He listened carefully and explained everything in detail to me. I was told to go and have a think about it and let him know if I had any further questions. I did this and on my second visit I decided to go ahead.

I had a brief pre-op appointment with a nurse at Cobalt and she was absolutely lovely, very professional and informative.

On the day of the op I can honestly say I was treated with so much dignity and respect by every single member of the team. I felt relaxed and very comfortable.

The op went well and I was discharged after a few hours. I was given strong painkillers to take home and advised to use them if the pain got too bad - along with paracetamol. I left the hospital completely bound/taped and I had a 24 hour telephone number in case I needed to call anyone or in case of emergency. I only called once when I had a slight bleed and the nurse was amazing. The following day I had a call out of the blue asking how I was.

I only used the paracetamol for a few days and then stopped and managed with no other pain relief. It was slightly uncomfortable but certainly not painful. I told no-one except my husband and nobody noticed as I wore baggy sweatshirts.

The tape stays on for around two weeks after which you can wear a well fitted sports bra day and night. At that appointment when the tape was removed I was honestly blown away by the results. The scarring was minimal and the shape was fantastic but still natural.

The next appointment is usually 4/6 weeks on and by then I was actually back to the gym and lifting light weights.

At my six week appointment I was discharged. My breasts look amazing, fabulous shape and minimal scarring. I honestly cannot recommend Mr Hodgkinson highly enough. The results have exceeded my expectations and I am honestly delighted with how they look.

The first picture I’ve posted is obviously my before pic, second one is straight after the op showing the bandaging, third pic is less than two weeks later when the strapping was removed. The final pic is only 6 weeks after the op which shows - as you can see - very little scarring.

I would not hesitate to book Mr Hodgkinson if you are thinking of a similar operation. He was amazing and so were the whole team. A really great result and fabulous care.

Your results look amazing, thank you for sharing! Did you feel any discomfort or pain after returning to the gym?

I was amazed at how quickly I was back doing normal stuff. I think the gym helped me strengthen the muscles. I’ve had no pain or discomfort whatsoever and am now back doing exactly what I was doing before the op. Incredible really. If you’re thinking of having this op with Mr Hodgkinson go for it. You won’t regret it.
I had my Brest done October still no follow up appointment I think I’ve been forgot about lol you look great by the way
