Bristol is the main centre for private cosmetic surgery in the South West. If you are considering breast implant surgery in Bristol, the same principles apply as anywhere in the UK: verify the surgeon's credentials and the facility before you book.
Choosing a surgeon in Bristol
- Confirm the surgeon is on the GMC Specialist Register for plastic surgery.
- Look for BAAPS or BAPRAS membership.
- Check the Bristol hospital or clinic is registered with the relevant regulator (CQC in England; Healthcare Improvement Scotland, Healthcare Inspectorate Wales or the RQIA in the devolved nations).
