WHAT OUR PATIENTS SAY
I had three procedures done with Mr Siddiqui, lip lift, breast implants and labiaplasty. I did a lot of research into surgeons and Mr Siddiqui stood out to me online he has a great profile and amazing reviews. My first consultation went really well, I was completely at ease, Mr Siddiqui explained everything thoroughly. A few weeks later I was in hospital having my procedures done, I was very well looked after and everything went smoothly. The aftercare was great. Between appointments Mr Siddiqui was only a WhatsApp or text message away, he was in touch everyday to begin and if I had any concerns he always replied quickly. I’m 6 weeks on from my procedures now and I am healing well and feeling great. I am very happy with my results. I can’t recommend Mr Siddiqui enough.

Frequently asked questions about
breast augmentation in manchester
Yes, a plastic surgeon can remove your implants through breast implant removal surgery. This procedure can be done for the following:
- Removing the original implants and replacing them with new implants.
- Repositioning the existing implants.
- Removing the implants without replacing them.
Here at Breast and Body Clinic, UK we use medical-grade saline breast implants and implantable-grade silicone implants. We ensure that we only use the highest quality so you can be sure they are safe. Your surgeon is happy to answer any questions or concerns you have about the safety of your implants.
It is advisable to discuss with your surgeon what is a reasonable size in terms of your height and body shape and your expectations before you undergo surgery. It is not possible to predict with absolute accuracy the cup size that an individual patient is likely to be after this procedure. Your surgeon will endeavour to give you a result appropriate for your height and build, while keeping your preferences in mind.
At your first appointment we will perform a physical assessment and evaluate your goals and expectations. We can help you select the right implant that will give you the shape and size you desire, whilst still looking natural for your body type and size.
Breast enhancement is performed under general anaesthetic and may involve one or two nights stay in hospital. With some patients it may be possible to carry out the procedure as a day case. Occasionally a drain tube is inserted into each breast to remove any blood or fluid that may have collected around the implant. This tube is normally removed within 24 to 48 hours and the patient is allowed home in a supportive soft brassiere. Following surgery there is some discomfort, which is more than adequately treated by painkillers. The breast can be bruised and swollen and appears larger in the first few days after surgery than the eventual size. In approximately six weeks the swelling and bruising settles and the final shape of the breast becomes evident.
A small dressing is applied to the suture line in the crease underneath the breast. Most patients are able to shower and change their dressing themselves at home. An outpatient appointment is made for dressing changes and any removal of sutures approximately one week after surgery. A review appointment is usually offered one to three months after the operation.
For the first couple of weeks, patients can experience discomfort while lifting weights or stretching their arms above the head. It is advisable to have help around the house and with young children during this period. The majority of patients are quite comfortable and able to return to work within two to three weeks after surgery. It is usually possible to return to normal exercise schedules including gym, aerobics and swimming four to six weeks after surgery. Be sure to check with your surgeon before returning to these activities.
Your surgeon will discuss the different shapes and types of implants that are available to you. You will be informed as to whether the implant will be placed above or below the pectoral muscle in the chest and what the long-term implications of having a breast implant are. Such problems may include capsule formation, leaks and ruptures, future mammograms, implications for pregnancy and breastfeeding and the possibility of revision surgery in the future. You will need another appointment about 2 weeks prior to your surgery, at no further cost, to have any questions answered following your first consultation.
Breast enlargements can have complications just like any other surgical procedure. These include bleeding, haematoma (blood clot under the skin or in the substance of the breast), infection, visible scars, asymmetry, loss of sensation in the nipple and long-term problems such as capsule formation, leaks or ruptures, and ALCL. Very rarely does an implant have to be removed due to a severe infection following surgery. If this happens the breast is allowed to settle and a new implant is put in three to six months after the operation.
No implant manufacturer guarantees an implant for life, however, 10 to 15 years is considered a reasonable timeframe. Patients are invited to return for an annual review to check the integrity of the implant and for significant capsule formation. If there is a suspicion of a leak or rupture the surgeon may advise you to have an MRI scan or an ultrasound examination to check on the integrity of the implant.
Every woman’s body is unique, there is no exact timeline for recovery. However, most surgeons agree that a full recovery can take on average six to eight weeks, and women may notice that they feel perfectly fine after about a week.
The decision to have a procedure is a personal one. A woman may enjoy the results of an augmentation prior to her decision to have a family. Implants will be unlikely to change the ability to breastfeed a baby. However, there is a slight risk that sensation could decrease following augmentation and may possibly interfere with the reflexes required for breastfeeding.
Implants are most often placed behind the milk glands, or under your chest muscle. This wont affect milk supply or stop you from being able to breastfeed. Occasionally you may have altered sensation that can affect being able to breastfeed, but most women don’t have issues breastfeeding post a breast enhancement. It is best to discuss your concerns with our surgeons prior to surgery.
In most cases, this type of surgery can be performed in less than two hours. Many clinics will recommend that you stay overnight, but in some cases, you can be in and out within a day. You will likely be given general anaesthesia for your procedure which can make you drowsy for the rest of the day.
Implants and augmentation procedures can stretch the skin either by adding implants or repositioning the breast tissue and may result in stretch marks. However in most cases, with normal-sized implants, it’s very rare to develop stretch marks. The best way to avoid this is to speak with your surgeon beforehand—they will give you all the information you need to choose the most appropriate size.
Our skilled surgeons aim to make their surgical incisions in such a way that any scars after breast enlargement surgery are minimal or barely visible.
Smoking cigarettes can increase the likelihood of developing capsular contracture and other malformations of the implants and breast tissue, as well as more prominent and irregular scars. Nicotine causes the tiny blood vessels in your body to clamp down. When they do, surgical wounds don’t get enough blood flow and delays the healing process. If you smoke around the time of surgery, you have a significantly increased risk of wound-healing problems and infections associated. We strongly advise you to stop smoking for 3 months before surgery and during your recovery period.
If the medication needs to be stopped, it should be done one to two weeks before surgery, so it’s important to talk to your surgeon. You can discuss with Mr Siddiqui, cosmetic surgeon at our clinic in Manchester, Chester, Preston. Call at 07787 331122 or you can book an appointment for a breast enlargement consultation by filling in the booking form.
Some herbal remedies increase the risk of bleeding. This can interfere with the healing process and lead to post-surgery complications. Do not take any herbal medication for four weeks prior to surgery. Many health organizations advise that all herbal supplements be stopped 2 to 3 weeks before surgery. This includes the American Society of Anesthesiologists.
Patients should sleep upright for a minimum of 2 weeks following their cosmetic surgery procedure. If you want to know more about how to sleep after an augmentation you can read this post.
If you don’t wear your surgical bra, there is a risk of your implants shifting down or sliding to the side, this is known as breast implant dislocation. This will extend the healing process and may create critical problems, such as bruising, different shape of each breast or poor adhesion of connective tissue, which can lead to a variety of aesthetic defects, and so on. You should wear a compression bra for at least the first month after your surgery, but it can take up to eight weeks before your implants settle into their final size and shape.
After your augmentation, you can expect your breasts to be swollen, have a “tight” appearance, and sit higher on your chest. This is all normal and expected and settles as your body heals.
After augmentation surgery in the following weeks, your soreness will gradually disappear as you heal. Many women feel little to no pain within 2 to 3 weeks, aside from some mild tenderness. By the time you have reached 1 month after surgery, most of your soreness should be gone.
You don’t require strict bed rest, however after augmentation surgery you have to take it easy for atleast 2 days. It’s important for you to get up and walk around to help blood circulation and expand your lungs.
Breast enhancement does not increase your risk of cancer. In addition, implants do not delay the detection of cancer. In fact, breast implant patients who do get cancer have the same chance of obtaining remission, or being free of cancer for 5 years, as women without implants.
Most women will have some loss of feeling or sensation after augmentation surgery. For most women this lasts 6-12 months before returning to normal.
Women may start driving car after one week of surgery as long as they are not taking any pain medications and have done a safe emergency stop. Your surgeon will explain all the things you can and cannot do post surgery at your appointments.
Depending on the size of the implant, most women find no trouble in performing most physical activities following the surgery. It is unlikely that you will experience long term changes in physical functioning. Weight lifting or lifting heavy objects will not affect the implant once the area has properly healed and you have been given the all clear by your surgeon.
