Ms Highton is an outstanding and empathetic surgeon who takes the time to ensure patients receive exceptional care and results. I am 3 months breast augmentation post op and delighted with the results. Having taken my time to research procedures and surgeons, with plenty of experience of other potential suppliers as part of my research, I am relieved to have found and entrusted Ms Highton. An exceptional surgeon who has demonstrated her professionalism and genuine compulsion to ensure her patients receive the best possible results and care. Top class!

I am into my 3rd month post breast reduction surgery and highly recommend Lyndsey. After much research into this procedure I chose to approach Lyndsey due to her medical background in breasts and also with her cosmetic expertise. Being obese and very top heavy most consultants expect patients to lose weight before operating. I contacted Lyndsey and felt that she was very understanding of my issue and concerns; extremely friendly and I always felt that all my questions were answered more than satisfactorily. I had a slight healing problem with one of my breasts and am absolutely relieved I chose Lyndsey and her team as they accommodated to see me whenever I had any concerns. Absolutely happy with my outcome and treatment.

My experience with Ms Highton was extremely good. In fact, it is hard to make any suggestions to improve. Having found a small lump in my breast and been referred to the local NHS hospital I was told it could be a rupture on my implants of 35+ but they did not give me any suggestions as to how this could be confirmed. I was just given choices, none of which made me feel at all confident, so took the option to 'watch and wait'. Having then spoken to my GP I was referred to Ms Highton who arranged for an MRI scan which confirmed that the implants had, in fact, ruptured. I then arranged for a date to have the implants replaced. The procedure left me somewhat tender for 3 or 4 weeks but they then became much more comfortable. By six weeks post surgery they had healed well and the discomfort had virtually disappeared. The procedure was well worth having done and Ms Highton was wonderfully supportive throughout.

After considerable apprehension about seeking out surgery to remove loose skin after weight loss, I did some online research and discovered Ms Highton. At the initial appointment she made feel very comfortable and explained the possible procedures that could be pursued as well as detailing any side effects that could occur. I then decided to go ahead with a concurrent abdominoplasty and gynaecomastia surgery and scheduled the date. I attended several more appointments prior to the surgery and each time was met with friendliness and professionalism which instilled considerable confidence going into the operation. This was justified after seeing the results of the operation which were fantastic and a complete transformation from what I had been dealing with previously. The care I received post surgery was also great and I was always made aware of what I should be doing and avoiding to achieve the best results. The pain post surgery was also a lot less than what I had imagined and I found it quite manageable and was soon up an about, although your mileage may vary. I would highly recommend Ms Highton to any others seeking surgery of this kind.

I had a breast reduction. After searching forever for consultants I finally found the one that understood! Lyndsey is absolutely perfect, she’s well mannered, very empathetic and just a generally lovely person. I was 18 at the time of getting it done and very scared but Lyndsey was like a mum for me in a professional sense, made me feel completely at ease and did a perfect job at my breasts. After having them done I feel like a whole new person and Lyndsey is definitely at the core of the me finally loving myself!
