Hi I know this isn't about hair but does anyone know any forums I can join online with reviews on plastic surgeons? X
 
Hey, 'real self' is a fantastic site for that. A lot of surgeons are on it and thousands of people do blogs of their surgery experiences & review the surgeons
 
I personally would not choose my surgeon based on anyone's review online.

The best aesthetic surgeons usually work in some form for the NHS. They will hold a private practice a few days a week. But they gain the most knowledge & technique in a teaching hospital/world leading hospital. This is where they are faced with the most complex cases & have the capacity to constantly develop their skills.

My plastic surgeon trains others at the Royal College of Surgeons, is lead consultant at a major London hospital & is on a specialist academic committee that spans Europe.

Their medical career path is a good indicator of whether their skills are fresh & ever evolving. Look for a consultant from a leading hospital, look at what professional committees/teaching programmes they are on & choose someone who publishes research papers on their chosen speciality. This is the way to be pleased with the results & reassured that you are in safe hands :)
 
Hey I've only ever heard good things about spire. They hold loads of open dad and mini consultation days where they give talks and you can meet the surgeons and stuff. They are who I'm going to use for my boob job. Sorry I know that doesn't answer your question but look out for open days then pick a surgeon who you feel comfortable with xx
 
Research the particular surgeon rather than a group practice. Good advice from willowrose. Also some surgeons have a style or product preference (with regards to implants etc). Look at their portfolio pictures of there own work. Ask about experience, complication rates, back up and aftercare if something doesn't go to plan etc.
I researched for a year before going under the knife. I went into shock under anaesthetic and had a complication afterwards. Both were just bad luck and not as a result of an error, but my surgeon and his team handled everything very well and the ongoing care and communication with them was excellent.
