Hiya girls,

Could I just ask whom got to see their surgeon at the 1 week check up or was it mostly changing dressing with the nurse??

thanks all xxx

It's really the smaller or private surgeons that will have a surgeon see you at your first check up Bouncy. At the larger clinics you'll 'generally' be seen by the clinic nurse and she'll handle any concerns you might have until your appointment to see your surgeon which is 'generally about 6 weeks post-op. xx

You should do Cazalino 1week postop - Nurse or surgeon?? 1978086825

. You should have an appointment with your surgeon for a 6 week post-op, 6 month post-op and a 1 year post-op check in order for your surgeon to be able to follow your progress and for you to have the opportunity to air any concerns you may have.. If you don't already have a 6 week appointment it might well be worth calling them and arranging one sweetheart.

I'm not 100% sure either but I seem to recall something about if you miss these appointments it could make your aftercare void. I'm unsure if it's true or not for sure Cazalino, but I've read it somewhere that's for sure. xx
