Breast Implants Barcelona, Spain

As with everything in life, nothing is 100% perfect but my personal experience at the clinic was well worthy of a 5-star rating if not more. Definitely good value for money and I have no regrets. I was recommended IM Clinic by a friend of mine who had her procedure done there and after I did my own research on the clinic I deemed it an appropriate option for me personally. I went in for Genital Gender Confirmation Surgery (Vaginoplasty) as a private patient under the principle of informed consent. In my home country (the UK) we had/have trans care access issues which I believe could benefit from following the example of Spain. My initial contact with IM Clinic was lovely and has excellent English skills but we had some initial confusion over appointments due to me assuming GMT and they assuming CET time zone for the point of reference. There were also other elements of confusion over dates but these were quickly cleared up. These issues could perhaps have been avoided with the use of iCal-based appointments by the Clinic to establish a baseline/tentative schedule for at least some things. The building is very modern with a pristine and spacious reception area with plenty of comfortable seating for patients and their supporting guests. I attended alone and while the supporting staff were brilliant in attending to me, I would still highly recommend bringing someone to help you if you can. My room at the clinic was of 5-star hotel quality with remote controls for all environmental aspects and Chromecast support for the TV easily visible from either the seating or the hospital bed. The view from my room seemingly overlooked the carpark at the entrance with a stunning view of the nearby mountains/hills. The staff were very friendly, caring, and professional and despite my poor Spanish skills we did manage to converse with a little help from online language translators such as Google. I should add that at least some of the staff (including all the doctors/surgeons I interacted with) did speak my native tongue of English. Although initial assessment indicated the Colon doner technique may be required the final surgery performed was the Penile Inversion technique which I am thus far very happy with the results of. Due to the simpler procedure being performed, I received an appropriate refund on the difference very promptly. Aftercare is very good with prompt responses to my e-mails about any concerns I have raised to date from the surgeon that I was in consultation with. There is an emergency number that you can call if there are any serious issues as an outpatient but I have had no cause to use it and I am seemingly on a good trajectory with my recovery (about 4 weeks after admission and back in the UK). As someone who is a bit anal-retentive about details, just being told "Tea colour" for the Betadine/Saline mix did bother me a little but I worked it out to be roughly 1:25 ratio (100mg/ml Betadine, 0.9% Saline) after confirming the colour of a batch I mixed and took with me to my first outpatient appointment. I had some initial confusion over the initial outpatient medication schedule until the in-country pharmacy I used pointed out the times at the top of the printed prescriptions. The provided supplementary English translation of the outpatient treatment/medication instructions had some discrepancies but they were relatively unimportant. A Google Translate translation of the partially Spanish clinic admission form cleared the matter up. I did have an adverse skin reaction to the adhesive tape used to secure the post-op dressing but I must take some of the responsibility for it because I possibly failed to mention a non-medically diagnosed allergy to certain adhesives (possibly silicone-based ones - e.g. the strip at the top of stocking hold-ups). They did however treat the resulting injuries very well and I have no complaints about how this was handled. My advice is to ensure that you do not neglect such seemingly minor details on your admission questionnaire. There are some other matters pending discussion with the Surgeon in our next tele-appointment but I have confidence that they will be appropriately addressed then.

I had blepharoplasty (upper eyelid surgery) done here because they were affordable and also located in the same city as me (Barcelona). For the money I paid, I think they did an excellent job. I’m very happy and considering having some more work done at this clinic. I’ve already recommended them to a friend of mine. From the very beginning, they were clear about what I’d be paying and we stuck to this price. There were no hidden costs. Although the clinic was small, it was well-equipped and run by friendly staff. The doctors were professionals and my surgery went off without any complications. When I went for the follow-up, the doctor saw me immediately. He was very satisfied with the results. My very first cosmetic surgery was such a pleasant experience. They met every expectation. Both quality and price were fantastic!

My case was difficult because of my tuberous breasts and Dr Serra Mestre made a really good job. I’m very pleased with the results! Competent, patient and kind people. Great team of doctors and nurses.
