"After living with a "buffalo hump" for as long as I can remember, this year I decided enough was enough and looked into getting it removed. I contacted signature clinic and arranged a free consultation. Once i was deemed a suitable candidate for the procedure it was all systems go. I was notified of the available dates. Of course I booked the first available one. The reception staff, nurses and consultants are all lovely and couldn't have been any more helpful. Procedure was quick and painless and afterwards I was fitted with a compression garment and given the aftercare instructions again. I received a follow up call to check on how I was doing the following morning (on a saturday). The healing process was completely as described and there was numerous follow up consultations. I am now 6 months post procedure and had my last review just the other week. The difference is phenomenal, not only in my appearance but also in my confidence and mental health too. I would highly recommend signature clinic to anyone looking for cosmetic surgery/procedures."
