I had breast surgery with this consultant and have regretted it ever since. I have ended up with the surgeons impression of what was right for me rather than my own. As a person Mr Malata is lovely, you won’t get an infection or have post surgery issues. However I found discussions on size is very poor and was not listened to at all. I was left confused and ended up having my breasts done twice at twice the cost. No photos were shown or in depth discussion was held at all. I felt blind through the process. I had been wondering about 500 cc and mentioned it several times but it was dismissed immediately as being too large for me . However post second surgery and £10,000 later I wish he had listened to my questions about 500 CC as that is the size I believe would have been perfect for me. Very dissatisfied and disillusioned with the cosmetic surgery industry. There is a problem with the communication process here and as a visual person I needed to see something tangible to assess the size rather than just a conversation.

Professor Malata, took his time and listened to me. He explained everything thoroughly and took on board my concerns. My care from start to finish was excellent and the after care support offered invaluable.
