Your Questions Answered
-
What can I expect to pay?+-
Cost should never be a deciding factor with an elective surgery. Trust, experience and aftercare are absolutely key. River Medical is widely recognised as the industry leader in Ireland. We are also proud to say that we adhere to the strictest of ethical guidelines and believe that only highly trained medical staff should advise on cosmetic procedures - be it surgical or non-surgical.
-
Who will I meet at my initial consultation?+-
You will meet with one of our Consultant Plastic Surgeons who will discuss everything with you including your expectations and desires, the procedure and the best type of procedure for you, the results as well as any possible eventualities.
-
What is the recovery time like?+-
Recovery time is determined mainly by the duration of the swelling and bruising. With regard to the face this will be in the order of two weeks, by which time you should be fit to return to work and go out socially. If you work from home you should be able to resume work within a few days following surgery. You will not experience severe pain – tenderness and soreness represents the level of discomfort experienced by most patients. Everyone recovers differently but you can rest assured that we will monitor you closely to ensure the swiftest, safest and most comfortable recovery.

Am I a suitable candidate?+-

How should I prepare for my procedure?+-

Each one will go through every aspect of the surgery in great detail. Prior to surgery you will return for a further comprehensive pre-operative assessment with your River Medical Nurse.

Why choose River Medical?+-
We are widely regarded as being the industry leader in cosmetic surgery. At River Medical, we never compromise on the level of care and attention we give each and every one of our patients, every time, and we are committed to you from procedure right through to your 24/7, lifelong aftercare.
-
Why do you not have before and after pictures on your website?+-
Before and after pictures on websites can be misleading as they may not be patients of the surgeon who will be carrying out your surgery. As every person has completely different expectations and different treatment requirements, it is a much more valuable tool for your Consultant to show pictures of not only surgeries that he/she has carried out but also show you results you will be likely to achieve.
