I Couldn’t Have Asked for a Better Surgeon

WORTH IT
I had my breast augmentation with Mr Siddiqui at Bollin Clinic, and from start to finish the experience was nothing short of amazing. I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better surgeon.

Mr Siddiqui is incredibly patient, honest, and professional. He immediately puts you at ease and creates a very comfortable environment—something that really stood out to me, especially after consultations with other surgeons beforehand. The difference in approach was immense.

He takes the time to thoroughly explain the pros and cons of each implant option and is completely transparent about the risks of breast augmentation. This wasn’t just discussed once—he made sure I fully understood everything through both consultations and follow-up emails. I never felt rushed or pressured at any point.

What I really appreciated was how tailored his advice was. He helps you decide on things like placement (over or under the muscle) based on your lifestyle and activity levels, such as running or gym training, rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach.

The clinic itself is just as impressive—extremely organised, warm, and caring. Gemma and the front desk team are an absolute delight to speak with during check-ups, and the secretarial team are incredibly efficient. I never had to chase anything up; everything was handled smoothly and promptly.

A really thoughtful touch was being provided with a post-op bra from Lipoelastic. It’s honestly the best post-surgery bra I’ve tried—high quality and very comfortable. Having that provided took away one more thing to worry about before surgery.

Mr Siddiqui also prepares you well in advance to support recovery, advising on supplements like iron, zinc, and vitamin C, as well as maintaining a high-protein diet.

On to the surgery itself—Mr Siddiqui is clearly in high demand, so there was a waiting period (my first consultation was in November 2025 and surgery in February 2026). Personally, I found this reassuring. Being offered surgery too quickly can be a red flag, and I appreciated having time to properly consider everything.

On the day of surgery, I had my own modern private room with an en-suite, TV, and even a heated toilet seat! The procedure went very smoothly—I was under for less than two hours and woke up feeling surprisingly good. I was discharged before noon.

The nursing staff were absolutely wonderful—so kind, attentive, and constantly checking in on me. The food menu was also fantastic, with plenty of options, but I’m quite fussy after surgery. I asked if I could just have jam on toast, and they happily arranged it without hesitation—which I thought was such a kind and thoughtful gesture.

A special mention to Denise, the pre- and post-op nurse, who was incredible. She checked in with me daily via WhatsApp to make sure I was recovering well, which made me feel really supported throughout.

And finally, the results—I honestly couldn’t be happier. They look so natural, like I was blessed with them rather than having had surgery! The incision site was tiny, which really impressed me. My recovery was also much easier than expected—I barely needed painkillers and was even out shopping the next day.

I would highly recommend Mr Siddiqui and the team at Bollin Clinic to anyone considering this procedure.
