Plastic surgery Liverpool and beyond has become increasingly popular in recent years. The number of celebrities who have gone public about their procedures has driven this growth. As a result, plastic surgery has now become mainstream. In turn, this has led to an increase in the number of companies offering plastic surgery.

Unfortunately, it has also led to increasing numbers of procedures going wrong.

Earlier this year, for example, the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS) found that 80% of their members had seen a rise in patients with ‘botched’ procedures. This includes patients who were offered the wrong procedures and procedures being carried out incorrectly. In a large number of cases (30%), these procedures had been carried out abroad.

The purpose here isn’t to frighten those considering plastic surgery. It is to highlight the importance of choosing the right Plastic Surgeon, one who is a specialist in the procedures they want carrying out. People in Merseyside wanting breast augmentations or blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), for example, could consider Plastic Surgery Liverpool based consultant Mr Irfan Khan.
