Answer: Thank you for your enquiry. Mr Gateley would be happy to see you for some advice on whether your breast implants need further investigation. Most implants have a life span of 10-15 years approximately.

Answer: Good afternoon Christine,
Thank you for your enquiry. In the first instance, a consultation is usually required to examine your breasts to ensure there are no clear signs of issues such as rupture or capsular contracture. For additional peace of mind, we are also able to refer locally for an ultrasound scan if you wish.
If you would like further info, please do not hesitate to contact us via email - (our contact details can be found on our clinic profile)
Kind regards,
