Best decision I made this year

5 50 Breast Implants

I had breast augmentation done in May 2023 with Auralia. All the staff were extremely kind and helpful. I am so happy with my results. I was going back and forth about my decision for over a year as I was unsure if I needed a lift as I had gone to consultations with lots of other clinics some telling me I needed a lift and some telling me I didn’t. And one surgeon even turning me away saying that the look I wanted to achieve was not possible. I was very disheartened and confused by this which had me going back and forth on my decision. I then had my consultation with Auralia and I was put at ease and the surgeon explained to me that the implant alone would give me the lift that I needed. I got to try on different-sized implants during my consultation which I didn’t get in other consultations with other clinics. the recovery was very quick and I was back to work in 5 days with no issues. Best decision I made this year.

The staff were so friendly and really helped me to settle

5 50 Breast Lift, Breast Reduction

Breast reduction and uplift 5 weeks ago. Best best decision I have ever made. Best money I have ever spent. Went for a consultation, then emailed the clinic lots of times to answer a few questions..finally made decision a week later and then had to wait 6 weeks for my date to come. I was so nervous on the day of the operation. The staff were so friendly and really helped me to settle.

After the operation I woke up to some slight pain, pain settled with painkillers provided and I got home that evening. I took it very easy for 2 days and then I started to build myself up to doing my normal daily routine. I went to follow up a week after, doctor was very happy with how I was healing and asked to see me in 3 weeks. I then went back 3 weeks later and all was looking and feeling well.

I was so happy with the outcome. I feel so much more confident and look and feel a lot slimmer. I am more motivated to exercise from next week on which will be 6 weeks after the operation. I honestly wish I had have went for this operation years ago. It has changed my life in lots of positive ways. I read lots of reviews saying 'wish I had done it sooner, can't believe I am now writing that. If you are considering it, you definitely won't regret it.

It’s only 2 weeks later and I already see a big difference

5 50 Liposuction

I was booked in for a tummy tuck. I lost alot of weight over 10 years ago but since then have became abit of a body builder. When I’m all posed up I don’t look so bad, but when relaxed my loose skin is very noticeable and would have me insecure and would hate being topless on the beach etc. Initial consultation had me booked for tummy tuck - the procedure I thought I needed.

However; on the day of the surgery I was given a suggestion by Dr.Salman, he believed for my situation a tummy tuck would be an overkill and to consider liposuction with contouring instead. I went ahead with this. It’s only 2 weeks later and I already see a big difference even with swelling and skin retraction still needing weeks/months before the real results show.

7 small incisions were made, the size of staples. So again even though it’ll take a lot longer to heal properly, they aren’t really that noticeable already. A refund was made immediately for the price difference in the surgeries saving me quite a lot of money.

Excited to see the real results if a few months time but very pleased 2 weeks later. And glad of Dr.Salmans suggestion - showing he really cares about the patient and final results, and not just carrying on with a more expensive procedure for the sake of profit.

I couldn't be happier with the results

4.5 50 Breast Lift, Breast Reduction • Paid: €8600

Breast Uplift and Reduction surgery - October 2022

My only regret is waiting so long to have this surgery done. I couldn't be happier with the results.

I had no pain from the moment I awoke from the surgery. Only slight discomfort for the first few days.

Dr. Varas and the team at Auralia in Park West were just amazing.
I was so well looked after from start to finish.

I would not hesitate to recommend Auralia to anyone considering this surgery.

The staff put me at ease the moment I stepped through the doors

5 50 Breast Implants, Breast Lift, Plastic Surgeon Consultation • Paid: €7200

I had my breast augmentation/uplift a week ago with Dr. Salman and his team they were amazing from start to finish. I went for two consultations to be 100% sure I was so nervous on the day of my surgery but due to breastfeeding & rapid weight loss post partum I knew I had to do this to regain my confidence. The staff put me at ease the moment I stepped through the doors.

The nurses were so upbeat and always tried to put a smile on my face post surgery and the phone calls every day post op to ensure I was okay. Unbelievable so excited for my first follow up appointment this week if you thinking of doing this stop thinking & just book it you will not regret it.

Felt at ease and confident this was the place for me

5 50 Plastic Surgeon Consultation

Absolutely thrilled to write this comment regarding this clinic. I have done a lot of research and have had quite a few consultations with other surgeons prior to choosing Auralia.

I came from England to this clinic for my consultation with Dr Salman in Sept 2022. The whole consultation was fabulous, the professionalism of the girls at booking in all to seeing Dr Salman himself. Felt at ease and confident this was the place for me.

I have booked in for surgery (breast reaugmentation) for January 2023 and I will be more than confident my review after surgery will be as grand as this one.

My communication with care coordinator Shauna Connor regarding booking in has been so easy, no more than a few hours between replies for whatever questions I have had, such a fab lady.

Highly recommend this clinic (travelling from England).

He’s a lovely man and put me at ease, I wasn’t nervous at all the day of surgery

4.5 50 Breast Implants • Paid: €5700

I got a breast augmentation at the start of the summer and it was the best decision I ever made. I went for a consultation and it was carried out by Dr Tunau. I’m very petite and I haven’t seen anyone my size with implants that actually looked good , they always look to large for their frame. I’d been to other clinics before for consultations and they had pushed larger implants on me. Dr Tunau wasn’t like this. I picked a 270cc implant /teardrop (this is on the smaller end of implants ) I did second guess the size a few times but I’m glad I stuck to the 270cc . The surgery was carried out by Dr Salam. He’s a lovely man and put me at ease, I wasn’t nervous at all the day of surgery. All the staff members are very kind from the nurses to anaesthetist, the after care is unbelievable, they will call you for a few days after the surgery to check how you are etc. I’ve had a fantastic recovery. I was out and about a few days after surgery ..zero pain at all. I’m a few months post surgery and my implants look real . They fit my body so well. With the 270cc implant I went from an A cup to a D cup . I wasn’t expecting this but I’m not complaining.

I had an amazing experience from start to finish

5 50 Breast Implants • Paid: €5600

I recently had my breast augmentation surgery. Every single member of staff made me feel so comfortable, there was always someone to answer my many phone calls and questions. On the day of surgery, I was extremely nervous but my nerves were quickly calmed by the amazing welcoming and calming staff. I had an amazing experience from start to finish. The surgery went very well and the recovery was quick and easy. Highly recommend. Only wish I’ve done this sooner :)

The after care is absolutely fantastic couldn't fault it in any way

5 50 Breast Implants • Paid: €5800

I am currently 12 days post-breast augmentation. It has been the best decision I have ever made for myself. The confidence I feel already in myself cannot have a price on.

From the start of this journey every single person I encountered has been amazing. My consultation with Dr.Salmon couldn't have gone any better. I came out of it so excited and thrilled with my surgery it was the best thing I have ever decided to get done.

The after care is absolutely fantastic couldn't fault it in any way. They ring you every day for about 4 days to see how you are doing which was absolutely brilliant. I would highly recommend Dr.Salman and his team.

Bariatric Surgery

 

Bariatric Surgery Consultation

If you are wishing to lose weight but you are unsure about what procedure may be best for you then our bariatric surgery consultation may be the best option for you. This consultation is completely free and there is absolutely no obligation to book your procedure with us. During the consultation we can discuss all available weight loss options and go over the costs of each of them along with explaining our 0% finance option. We will be more than happy to answer any questions you have and you will be sent home with our information packs to read over before making your decision on whether to book your procedure or not.
 

Gastric Balloon

Our gastric balloon program has proven results in helping our patients to kick start their weight loss or to shift those last few stones off. Our program includes a 1 year after-care program during which you will have regular follow up consultations with our weight loss team whilst also being educated on how to maintain your weight loss long term. You will also receive full nutritional guides, full exercise guides, 24/7 emergency phone support and full surgical cover whilst on the program.
 

Gastric Band

Our gastric band program is the number one long term weight loss program available. All of our surgeries are carried out in our own state of the art facilities in Dublin by our world renowned consultant bariatric surgeons. Following your gastric band procedure you are enrolled onto our comprehensive after-care program. You will receive full nutritional guides which covers all aspects of the foods you need to be eating whilst being worded in a way that is very easy to understand. You will also receive full exercise guidelines which will be incorporated into your program after you have lost some weight and once it is safer for you to engage in physical activity. You will have unlimited appointments with our weight loss team, providing motivation and ensuring that we can be depended upon by you. You will also have all adjustments/fills of your gastric band included on your after-care program. 

As standard, you will also receive 24/7 emergency phone support and full surgical cover for the entire duration of your program.

Typically, we would expect a weight loss of at least 5-6 stone within the first year of our program, however, we have many patients who have lost as much as 10 stone within this time. 
 

Gastric Bypass

 

Gastric Plication

 

Gastric Sleeve

Our gastric sleeve program has proven to be the most effective form of long term weight loss for our patients for many years. Our programme starts with your gastric sleeve procedure being carried out  in our state of the art, fully CHKS, NTPF and ISO accredited, private hospital in Dublin by our expert bariatric surgeon.

Following the procedure, you will have lifetime after-care with our weight loss team, including unlimited appointments and 24/7 emergency phone support.

Typically, we would expect our patients to lose approximately 6-7 stone (38-44kg) within the first year. However, this will vary from patient to patient depending on how strictly they stick to the given guidelines. Many of our patients have lost as much as 11 stone (69kg) within the first year.

Here at Auralia Weight Loss Clinic we understand that the decision to undergo any form of procedure is not one which can be made easily. We also understand that most of our patients prefer to have all the available information before making a decision. For this reason, we offer all of our gastric sleeve patients free consultations. During this consultation we can discuss the procedure, the after-care programme and the patient requirements in far greater detail whilst also ensuring that the patient is an appropriate candidate for the procedure. There is no obligation to book the procedure with us during this consultation. It is more of an informal chat.

 

Revisional Bariatric Surgery

Our expert consultant bariatric surgeons have extensive experience in carrying out revisional bariatric surgery.Revisional bariatric surgery involves either fixing a problem with the initial surgery that you had or converting the initial surgery that you had to a different bariatric procedure.Our consultant bariatric surgeons have carried out a high number of these cases, varying from placing a gastric band around what was once a gastric bypass or sleeve, to converting a gastric band surgery to a gastric sleeve surgery.
