Welcome to Berkeley Square Medical. This guide is your personal resource to help you prepare for your time with Mr. Taimur Shoaib and our clinical team. From what to bring on the day to a preview of your 3D imaging, we’ve simplified the process so you can arrive feeling calm, informed, and ready to begin.
Welcome to the first step of your aesthetic goal. We understand that undergoing a Rhinoplasty is a significant milestone in quality of life. This guide is designed to help you feel prepared, confident, and empowered for your upcoming consultation.
For many of our patients, this is the most anticipated and emotionally resonant part of the entire consultation. We believe that you shouldn't have to guess what your results might look like, you should be able to see them.
Using our state-of-the-art 3D Clinical Imaging, Mr. Shoaib will capture high-resolution profiles of your face to create a digital canvas. Together, you will explore the possibilities, refining the bridge, tip, and profile in real-time until the aims of your surgery are perfectly aligned with your personal vision. If you are attending in-person, our team will take your photos. If attending over Zoom Video, we will be sending you our Imaging portal for you to upload your photos using your smartphone.
This isn't just a technical exercise, it’s the moment you get to meet the future version of yourself. Seeing your predicted results from every angle often provides that final sense of clarity, turning nerves into genuine excitement.
Within 24 hours of leaving the clinic, we will send your full 3D Simulation Gallery directly to your inbox. This allows you to revisit your transformation in the comfort of your own home, share it with your loved ones, and feel confident that you are making a well-informed decision.
To ensure we cover every clinical and practical detail without rushing, please allow up to one hour for your full appointment.
Zoom Video appointments are very accurate and are widely used for out-of-town patients considering surgery in London. There are some treatments that can't be attended via zoom inc; Revision Rhinoplasty, Body and Breast Surgeries. These particular appointments require skin elasticity assessment and accurate measurements before deciding on treatment plans. Although accuracy is not limited in Zoom attendances, patients may wish to have a more personal experience by visiting the actual clinic, surgeon and staff in-person to help build confidence before choosing to proceed.
We use advanced 3D Clinical Imaging to take the guesswork out of your transformation. During your consultation, high-resolution photographs are taken from multiple angles to create a digital model of your face. Mr. Shoaib then performs a live simulation, adjusting the nasal bridge, tip, and profile to align with your aesthetic goals. Within 24 hours of your appointment, you will be sent a private 3D Imaging Gallery. This allows you to view your "before" and "predicted" results side-by-side in a high-quality digital format, giving you the time and space to review your potential new look at home before deciding to proceed.
Don't worry, you don't have to decide on the spot. If you get home and find yourself torn between two subtle variations of your new profile, simply let us know. We can arrange a quick follow-up call or a second "planning chat" with our clinical team. We want you and your family to feel certain, not just "ready." We are here to refine the 3D simulations until the "vision" in your gallery matches the one in your head.
This is completely normal! Most patients are so focused on the clinical assessment that the details can feel like a blur afterward. This is exactly why we created the 24-Hour Digital Brochure. You don’t need to take notes; within 24-hours of leaving the clinic, you’ll receive a comprehensive digital pack containing your 3D gallery, your bespoke recovery timeline, and a step-by-step guide to everything we covered. You can review it in your own time, stress-free.
A first-time consultation can feel like a whirlwind of information. Bringing a trusted family member or friend, someone who knows your face as well as you do, is a brilliant way to stay relaxed. They often remember the small details you might miss and can help you discuss your 3D simulations afterward. At Berkeley Square Medical, we don’t just look after our patients; we look after their support systems, too. We’ll ensure both you and your guest are fully informed, comfortable, and confident in every step of the journey. After all, they’ll likely be the ones helping you during your first week of recovery! If your support person can’t make it in person, we are happy to have them join the Consultation via FaceTime/Video Call
The best time is simply whenever you have 7-days to truly switch off. While you’ll be "laptop-ready" in 24 hours, the best results come from patients who allow their bodies to rest during that first week. Whether that’s a quiet week in winter or a summer "staycation," our Clinical Team will help you coordinate your surgery date with your life’s biggest milestones, weddings, graduations, or career moves, to ensure your recovery is as seamless as your results.
This is a common question from families. 64 Harley Street is a CQC registered private specialist hospital, designed specifically for elective procedures like Rhinoplasty. Unlike a busy general hospital, our environment is calm, private, and highly controlled. There are no emergency admissions or unpredictable wards. This means our clinical team is focused 100% on your comfort and your recovery. Many patients and their families find this environment much more reassuring and "boutique" than a traditional hospital setting.
It is completely natural to feel nervous about your first time "going under." At Berkeley Square Medical, we use Consultant Anaesthetists who are experts in "TIVA" (Total Intravenous Anaesthesia). This modern technique is famous for providing a "gentle wake-up," meaning you won't feel the grogginess or nausea often associated with older methods. Most patients describe it as the best nap they’ve ever had! Mr. Shoaib and the anaesthetic team will meet with you on the morning of treatment to answer every question so you feel 100% at ease.
