Tummy Tuck West End, Glasgow

Professor Mackay-Hart provided me with an in-depth explanation of the potential risks and benefits of the abdominoplasty surgery I had enquired about. On admission, the staff were excellent and thorough as well as being very professional. Post-op night 1 was the first time (3 previous ops) I experienced care and pain relief in advance of needing it. I genuinely believe the care that first night was key in my recovery. Although major surgery I was up and self care the next day and home the day after. I took the advice given on pain management and really kept on top of it that first week and I was mobile and coping quite well. After week 1 it was plain sailing, keeping mobile. At week 4, my wound had a very small fat necrosis develop but quick action with antibiotics and follow up with the outpatient clinic has got me through that minor hurdle. I watched and read so many negative articles about this surgery and how much of a struggle it can be post-op. For me, the key to really getting through it so easily was listening to the clear advice, excellent pain management in the early days and having the procedure carried out by an excellent surgeon. Nothing ever goes 100% to plan but following advice and really being positive about the outcome I think was key in me writing this positive review and saying to anyone considering this type of surgery to ignore the online stuff and just go with a good quality surgeon and facility.

I booked in for breast reduction and scar revision on hips after a tummy tuck by someone else that was a mess. I was recommended Vivek by a friend who got an enhancement so I was quite comfortable from the off. Vivek made me feel very at ease during the consultation, explained options and also showed me lots of pictures to help discuss my expectations. I left feeling happy id made the right decision. Financial cost- it’s not cheap- but I’d rather pay more and have such a procedure done locally by recommendation than go abroad for a cheap job! Personally, I couldn’t fault the service provided by staff and nurses for pre and post-op. Especially post-op, the nurse's care was fantastic and was during Covid restrictions! Viveck was great, I have just had my post-op consultation with him, and considering I have a lot of tattoos on my body too, he did an amazing job avoiding during the reduction. I can genuinely say the surgery, and the service was worth every penny I paid for. If I could afford it I’d be back for lippy! Haha, one-day :)) Vivek has changed my life for the better. So happy!!

My Quaba is an experienced plastic surgeon who knows exactly how to help people and make them feel confident about the surgery. He is like an artist when it comes to his work and he is a lovely person who listens to what you want and need then works with you to get to the goal. The nurses and staff at Spire are friendly and so caring. One nurse in particular I think her name is Cecilia who removed the cast and stitches was absolutely amazing! She was friendly, and professional and made me feel so safe and happy in such a nerve-racking situation. She explained everything in detail and made light conversation to ensure I was distracted. Taking the job seriously but making it fun and safe is really a talent and shows how nice a person she is! So far recovering from the nose job has been easy with the support of Spire and Mr Quaba;s team and looking forward to the future with my new nose.

Removal of growth on forehead. Given the length of probable wait in the NHS, chose to go private. Got an initial appointment within a week, and procedure done 2 days later. Clinic was very impressive and welcoming, as was the doctor. The procedure was done quickly and competently
