Open Rhinoplasty UK

Bilateral prophylactic mastectomy and reconstruction for high-risk breast cancer. I waited a year and a half to write this review because, frankly, it's been a difficult journey and writing one up wasn't exactly a priority. Now that I am healed, healthy, and clear of mind, I see how important it is to review Mr. Sarakbi, since when I started on this path I too scoured for any nugget of reassurance. I hope this brings you some comfort. The decision to get a bilateral prophylactic mastectomy isn't one I approached lightly. I spoke to my family, a geneticist, my GP, an oncologist and four separate plastic surgeons (who specialized in this field) both in the UK and in the US before determining this was what I needed to do and once I had reconciled myself to it, I dove in head first. Mr. Sarakbi was always direct and honest in his approach with me. I admit that in the beginning there were some concessions I was unwilling to make regarding the reconstruction, but he patiently explained the reasoning behind his recommendations and even told me to take a couple of weeks to think it over. It's scary, having your breasts removed and rebuilt. I needed all the time and information I could collect. Ultimately, I went forward and heeded his advise and am grateful for it. The surgery and how I look a year and a half later, far exceeded even my (secretly hopeful) expectations. I look normal in clothing. Even better, I look normal in lingerie. In swimsuits. In front of the mirror when I'm draped in a towel. Yes, there's scaring (and I haven't had my nipples reconstructed...yet), but my breasts are symmetrical and, as the scars slowly fade, I can see that the end game will be worth it. My fear of getting breast cancer is gone and when I look at myself I see a strong, healthy, happy, and beautiful woman. Mr. Sarakbi is an absolute professional, a skilled surgeon, and something of a miracle worker. I'd highly recommend him to anyone in the same situation.

I am a 35-year-old woman and I first met Lisa Sacks when I was 33 and looking for a surgeon to replace my breast implants with something much smaller and more fitting for my frame. I knew this would involve a breast lift as I would be significantly decreasing the size. I had my breast augmentation when I was 25 and I hadn’t taken the time to properly research my surgeon and just went with a popular high street company that offered a good discount. I ended up with implants that were ridiculously large for my small frame (going from a B cup to an FF). Lisa appealed in that she specialises in natural looking breasts and had many good reviews. From the moment I met her, she was everything you want in a surgeon. She spent a lot of time, just getting to know me and my circumstances. She taped my breast up to show the kind of effect I could get with a lift which was really interesting to see. She didn’t think I even needed to have another implant put in and recommended an implant explant and lift which I hadn’t even considered. Most surgeons actively discourage removing implants altogether. At first, I was unsure as I thought I might end up with my old breasts back and looking worse after having had two surgeries. She totally put my mind at ease and we had as many consultations as I wanted to make sure I was happy. She explained to me that as the reason I wanted implants in the first place was for the shape more than the size, she could have achieved the look I wanted just by doing a lift. I had thought lifts were just for saggy boobs and hadn’t realised that they can be used to shape boobs as well as reducing the size of the areola. The surgery itself was so different from Lisa. The Nuffield in Bristol was lovely and Lisa was there from the start and so reassuring. She said to me this experience will be so different from the first time and she was right! Everything went beautifully and Lisa was there to personally remove the tubes after surgery as she likes to do everything herself. Every day I am glad that I followed her advice and had the implants removed. It's so nice knowing that my breasts are all mine and have no implants in there. The shape is lovely, is getting better and better as it settles. The scars are nearly invisible despite being the lollipop formation (around the areola and down to the crease). My clothes fit better, I look so much younger and slimmer! I’ve had to follow up consultations at 1 week, I month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 1.5 years and will continue to have them yearly for 10 years. it's so reassuring knowing she is always there making sure everything heals well. If anyone is unhappy with their implants I would really recommend seeing Lisa as it's the best decision I ever made. Or if anyone is considering having implants I would still recommend her as she will only put them in in an appropriate size that fits your frame, they will look so natural and beautiful as she is a true artist! Everything was excellent at this clinic. I would highly recommend.
