Cosmetic Surgery in Manchester: It’s well known that many people in Manchester who care about their looks now consider cosmetic surgery as an effective and viable option. Plastic surgery, aesthetic procedures and cosmetic enhancement no longer carry the stigma that they perhaps once did, which means more and more people, from all walks of life think about having some form of cosmetic treatment to enhance their looks and improve their self-confidence.

Dr Ricardo Frati is one of the UK’s leading plastic surgeons and sees thousands of patients every year from our clinic in Deansgate, Manchester. 3 top treatments always seem to be at the top of the list when it comes to cosmetic surgery for his patients. These include:

• Breast Augmentation (boob job)

• Surgical rhinoplasty (nose job)

• Vaser liposuction (Vaser lipo)

#1 – Breast Augmentation in Manchester

Breast augmentation is still one of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures to be undergone by women across the globe. It involves placing a prosthetic silicone implant under or over the breast muscle to increase and enhance the shape and size of the breast.

Dr Frati is one of the leading UK breast implant surgeons and only uses methods and techniques which have been perfected over many years. He will aim to achieve the most natural result using the safest implants in a surgical setting.

Breast augmentation is commonly known as a ‘boob job’ and is a favourite amongst our Manchester-based patients. It can be a life-saving procedure for some women, who feel more womanly and feminine, following the procedure.

#2 – Rhinoplasty in Manchester

Surgical rhinoplasty, commonly referred to as a nose job, is a surgical procedure for correcting and reconstructing the nose to obtain a natural and pleasing appearance for the face.

Many people experience issues with their nose, such as a nose that is too large, a crooked nose, a flat nose and a nose with a very small tip. Using various techniques which he has perfected over many years, Dr Frati can re-design the shape of your nose so that it complements the anatomy of your face and gives you a more pleasing profile. Surgical rhinoplasty involves a general anaesthetic and sometimes certain bones within the nose will need to be broken and re-set. This means that there is some recovery time from this procedure.

However, new techniques where a less invasive approach can be taken are now becoming more popular, such as the ‘closed’ technique or ‘diamond tip’ nose job. Dr Frati will discuss all options available to you in a no-obligation consultation.

#3 – Vaser liposuction in Manchester

Vaser liposuction, to remove unwanted body fat has become hugely popular in recent years as it offers a less invasive approach than traditional surgical liposuction. Vaser stands for Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance. It uses specialised ultrasound technology to break down fat cells by sending out ultrasonic frequency waves. The fat is then sucked away using a special cannula.

The benefits of Vaser over traditional liposuction are that there is less pain and a smoother look than traditional liposuction. This is due to the fact that Vaser negates the need for the body fat to be broken down via the cannula, rather, is broken down prior, with the ultrasound waves. It also means less bleeding and less bruising during recovery.

Results are immediate but you could experience some slight swelling due to fluid retention following the procedure. Therefore, expect full results to be achieved around a month to 3 months following your treatment.
