It is important to lay flat for at least 72 hours especially for revisional cases unless told otherwise by Mr Banwell and his team. You will be told when you can shower, etc. Using a hairdryer on a warm setting may be useful after showering. You will be seen in dressing clinic by the nurse at week 1 then by Mr Banwell at week 2 and regularly thereafter.

The fees for surgery will be quoted by Mr Banwell’s team and will include the following:

• Surgeon’s fees
