Very happy with the results even at this stage - my skin texture is much improved

5 50 Treatment for Wrinkles

Really impressed with my experience of River Medical and I found the atmosphere and ‘vibe’ to be very warm and positive.

I had CO2 laser with Danielle two weeks ago and she was absolutely excellent - reassuring, straight-talking and a very skilled professional. It was over very quickly and it was much easier than I had imagined. I had two days of looking a bit puffy and pink and then it quickly resolved.

Very happy with the results even at this stage - my skin texture is much improved.
I returned for anti-wrinkle injections with Emma who was lovely and again had a fantastic experience at their clinic. Would recommend without hesitation.

They are so thorough and professional and there isn't anything they don't know in the Industry

5 50 Cellfina®

If you have any concerns about your face or body I highly recommend River Medical. They are so thorough and professional and there isn't anything they don't know in the Industry and will find a solution and put you at ease with any concerns you may have. I had Celfina done on my cellulite that was very deep and I thought I was stuck with it for life! Went and seen Aisling and showed her my concerns thankfully she gave me light at the end of a long tunnel.

From the moment I walked in Rebecca at Reception is so welcoming and on hand to answer any queries and is very professional. Dr Emma and Aisling both were so thorough and professional throughout the procedure that I hardly knew I had anything done. I will be definitely back and the prices are very reasonable also. What I also like about the Clinic is it has a home from home feel to it so you instantly feel relaxed.

After a few sessions I noticed a big difference

5 50 Emsella®

A big thank you to Ashling who has been looking after my skin at River Medical for many years. While chatting to her one day she recommended I try the emsella chair as I had been experiencing a weakening in my pelvic floor muscles leading to uninary leakage. I was a bit unsure at first but said id give it a go. After a few sessions I noticed a big difference. The muscles became much stronger and tighter eliminating the symptoms of uninary incontinence.

The non surgical Emsella treatment lasts 28 minutes, was quick and comfortable with no down time and after treatment I could resume normal activities. I would highly recommend trying the emsella chair if you are experiencing any issues. Thank you so much Ashling for always looking after me at River Medical.

I now feel confident and look forward to make up free days with my glowing skin

5 50 IPL Skin Rejuvenation

I could not rate River Medical highly enough. From the moment I walked through the door I felt in safe hands and had the utmost confidence in Aisling and the nurses who were treating my skin. At the time, I had persistent break outs and did not feel comfortable going without make up. The therapist curated a plan based on my concerns and skin issues. I underwent a course of facials, I.P.L and used the recommended products that completely transformed my skin. The level of knowledge and passion that the staff of River Medical have is admirable. I now feel confident and look forward to make up free days with my glowing skin!

The texture, feel and look of it was better than it ever had been before

5 50 Rosacea Treatment

Absolutely fantastic! If I could give 10 stars I would! I came to River Medical in such a bad state with rosacea, my skin was raw, angry and bright red. I tried everything - antibiotics, topical creams and nothing worked.

My GP suggested I try IPL so I looked up clinics and came across River Medical. I called and made an appointment, the patient liaison officer was lovely, friendly and very helpful and booked me in for the following week. I met with Aisling who I had a skin consultation with. She was so professional, friendly, kind and emphatic, she went through the various options and assured me that a course of IPL and Jet peels would help clear up the problem. After going through a course of five sessions, I could not believe the change in my skin. The texture, feel and look of it was better than it ever had been before.

The procedures were non-invasive and Completely painless, I could apply makeup directly after it. I haven’t looked back! Aisling and her team are amazing, she is an absolute miracle worker. I would highly recommend River Medical 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

They also constantly checked in with me to ensure I was comfortable and not in pain

5 50 Plastic Surgeon Consultation

Yesterday, I had Cellfina cellulite removal treatment carried out. Obviously I cannot comment on the results just yet as it takes time but I absolutely have to give 5 stars for my experience there. Emma and Aisling who done the treatment were simultaneously professional whilst being extremely comforting and friendly. I felt like I was chatting away to friends. They also constantly checked in with me to ensure I was comfortable and not in pain. Would highly recommend River Medical.

I feel confident without makeup now as I never was before

5 50 Fraxel®

I attended the river medical to address pigmentation issues with my skin by requesting a Fraxel laser consultation. Aisling was so professional and friendly. She put me at ease straight away answering all my questions and concerns. I had a course of treatments with Aisling and it made a huge difference to my skin. I feel confident without makeup now as I never was before. I would highly recommend river medical for this treatment.

Truly feel very well.

Breast Implants • Paid: €5995

I couldn't recommend River Medical enough. The team are second to none in terms of experience and never fail to make you feel at ease when you pay a visit. From the very first appointment, I felt as though I was in the safest, most expert hands, and I truly feel very well looked after, even fourteen months after my original surgery.

Thermage™

5 50 Thermage® • Paid: €1800

I heard about Thermage™ in the press as being this amazing anti-ageing treatment - I was looking for something for my lower face and neck as I’d lost a lot of weight and had saggy, wrinkly skin on this area. I had no idea what the treatment was like but was immediately put at ease by River Medical on the phone - you get a consultation by a registered general nurse (who also carries out the treatment) for free to begin with. After going in for this consultation I made the appointment based on all the information the nurse gave me, she knew her stuff inside out and was really informative. During the treatment there was a little bit of pain but this didn't last. The nurse knew exactly what level to do the treatment at and talked me through the whole thing which was really reassuring! There’s a huge difference to my neck and lower face, it’s plumped up and there’s so much more definition in the area too. I couldn't recommend this treatment highly enough and think River Medical are amazing, real experts who know what they’re doing inside out and the treatments really do work! Thermage™ isn't cheap but you really get the value medium to long term which is important, it's not some quick fix but a lasting result (lasts up to 5 years).

Still really natural

5 50 Breast Implants • Paid: €8500

I am so glad I decided to get my BA done with River Medical. I was planning to go abroad but after researching all the options I decided not to and thankfully so as the having the unlimited free aftercare was so important and it would of been a nightmare if I didn't have the support of all the team there especially in the weeks after my surgery.

All the staff are so professional and genuinely care about the clients. I felt so comfortable and reassured that I had the right people doing my surgery which made the whole experience so pleasant. I am so happy with the results too, my breasts now look fuller and still really natural just the look I wanted.

I would definitely go back to River Medical again in the future and would highly recommend them
to other people as I have had nothing but the best care from them.

Breast Implants

 

Breast Lift

A breast uplift or breast mastopexy is a great way to raise and reshape breasts, giving a much younger, rejuvenated appearance. It offers a new lease of life to a tired shape after significant weight loss, pregnancy or just the general force of gravity and aging.

The Procedure

The operation involves the surgeon removing the excess skin from around the breast creating a much more pert breast. Small incisions around the breast are also made in order to allow the nipple and areola to sit higher on the breast, giving it a much more youthful appearance. The excess skin is then removed from below.

During your Consultation the Consultant Plastic Surgeon will go through the procedure with you and talk to you about the results you can expect. You will also get the price of the procedure during your consultation. 

 

Breast Reduction

Oversized breast can cause a lot of discomfort; many women feel self-conscious, have trouble sleeping and exercising and can experience back pain and shoulder pain as a result. When oversized breast start to inhabit your everyday life a solution could be breast reduction surgery.

The Procedure

Breast Reduction surgeon removes excess breast fat and skin tissue while shaping and repositioning the breasts. The result will be smaller breasts, more in proportion with the rest of your body and your breast shape should significantly improve after the surgery.

During your Consultation the Consultant Plastic Surgeon will go through the procedure with you and talk to you about the results you can expect. You will also get the price of the procedure during your consultation.
