Successful Ex-plant Surgery!

WORTH IT
I have had a few surgeries with Mr Ion and had never written a review as I am very private but on this occasion I feel this review may help others who have decided to have a breast ex-plant. I’d had my implants in for a very long time, 6 months after I had stopped breast feeding my last child. The implants were from the 1990s and one implant had started to rotate and become uncomfortable. Due to having other responsibilities, a General Anaesthetic was not an option for me. Mr Ion sent me for an ultrasound to establish extent of rupture if any and a BIA-ALCL test to rule out any signs of carcinoma that although rare is specific to breast implants that have a rough surface which was common use back in the 1990s. These tests were done at a nearby clinic and the results gave an all clear result much to my relief. My ex-plant was performed two weeks later under local anaesthetic and to be on the safe side another tissue biopsy was taken which also came back negative.
I was worried about how awful my deflated breasts would look but Mr Ion reassured me that breast tissue can restore itself in time and that after 6 months I could decide whether I wanted new implants/ fat transfer or an uplift or all 3! The incisions are so neat and tidy and after a 4 week check up with Rosie the in-house super-nurse, I am now using scar tape and the scars are almost invisible already.
The bonus is that my breasts really look very good 4 weeks later and indeed the tissue has bounced back and I now have volume! I am beyond pleased with the result! Mr Ion is a serious and talented surgeon who has a keen eye for the aesthetic. Always patient, thorough and trustworthy which are qualities one would expect in a top surgeon. The staff, in particular the office receptionists were always helpful and discreet and showed compassion throughout my treatment. I can only highly recommend and give Mr Ion 5 stars!
