Aftercare

MYA's Aftercare

MYA offer 24-hour access to a qualified specialist cosmetic surgery nurse. During office hours patients will be given their clinic number to speak with a Nurse and for out of hours (weekends and 5.30pm-9.30am weekdays) patients will be provided with an emergency contact number. This number is only to be used if patients require emergency clinical or medical attention and care. This is to ensure continuous reassurance is available from a nursing professional who is in contact with our surgeons and Medical Director.

Post-operative appointments

All patients must attended post-operative appointments set by their clinical team and follow the advice and guidance, which they will receive at their nurse pre-operative assessment and Surgeon consultation. Failure to follow this guidance may compromise the final result and the Surgeon may decide they are unable to carry out revision surgery in these instances.

Free Revision

For up to 2 years after your operation, where you and your surgeon both agree that further surgery is required, MYA will provide, if clinically appropriate, corrective surgery, hospital accommodation (where applicable) and nursing care free of charge.*

Breast augmentation

For up to 2 years from the date of original surgery MYA will provide free of charge, if clinically appropriate, corrective surgery, hospital accommodation, and replacement implants of the same size where capsular contracture occurs. Unless deemed clinically required by the operating surgeon, should the patient wish to change their implant size; a fee will be applicable.

In the case of confirmed rupture, MYA’s aftercare as in 7(c) of MYA GA 007 applies (MYA's Patient Information Guide). However, financial assistance might be offered by your implant company. Mentor offer a period of up to 10 years from the date of the implantation.

For any clinical concerns, MYA will arrange an appointment with a nurse at a local MYA clinic, and if they feel it to be necessary, will arrange for you to be seen by a surgeon at the next convenient date.
