ASSESSMENT

cosmetic Readiness Assessments

Our assessment helps you understand your
motivations for surgery and ensure realistic expectations. This not only leads to better
outcomes, but also helps you feel confident about your decision.

The assessment can identify any underlying body image issues that could be addressed through therapy. By addressing these concerns upfront, you can set yourself up for a more positive experience.

“

Preparing for Your Consultation: What happens in the assessment?

  • Your one-hour assessment takes place online via Microsoft Teams, and takes about an hour.
  • Before the assessment, you’ll complete online questionnaires to help us understand your unique needs.
  • The content of the assessment is completely confidential.
  • After the assessment, we’ll send a report to your surgeon summarizing your progress towards meeting established readiness criteria.
  • Following the assessment, you’ll receive a personalised report with recommendations. However, the final decision about surgery always remains between you and your surgeon.

THERAPY

what is CBT?

CBT stands for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. It’s a type of therapy that helps you identify and change negative thoughts and behaviours that might be affecting your well-being.

Develop Coping Skills: Learn practical tools to manage difficult emotions and negative
thought patterns.
Improve Overall Wellbeing: CBT can enhance your self-esteem, reduce anxiety, and
improve your quality of life.
Tailored Approach: We work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that
addresses your specific needs and goals.

THERAPY SERVICES AVAILABLE

We offer a range of evidence-based cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) services to help you address a variety of challenges and improve your overall well-being. This can be beneficial whether you decide to proceed with surgery or not.

Here are some areas we specialise in:

Body Image &  Self-Esteem: We can help you develop a healthy body image, improve self-confidence, and overcome negative self-talk.
Pre-Surgery Support: We can help you manage anxiety and prepare emotionally for
cosmetic surgery.
Post-Surgery Adjustment: We can provide support as you adjust to your new appearance
and navigate any emotional challenges that may arise.
Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD): We offer specialised therapy for BDD, a condition
characterised by obsessive preoccupation with perceived flaws in appearance.
Other Mental Health Conditions: Our therapists are also skilled in treating a variety of
other conditions, including OCD, health anxiety, generalised anxiety disorder (GAD), and depression.

What They’re Saying

The services offered are thorough, detailed, and professional. Patients who are recommended to have their surgery either postponed or not yet ready to have surgery are dealt with sensitively and additional treatment is offered and communicated to the patient as necessary. This gives valuable support to Elite Surgical . READ MORE

    What do you think therapy is?

⭐️ Therapy isn’t just talking about your feelings (although, we DO talk about your feelings!). 

⭐️ Therapy can help you to identify feelings, thoughts, emotions and beliefs that you may not have even been aware that you carry.

⭐️ Therapy can help you to make sense of behaviours and actions that do not serve you.

⭐️ Therapy sessions can be about learning and practising coping strategies.

⭐️ You may get tasks and work to do in between sessions, it’s not a passive process.

What do you think about therapy, have you ever dismissed it as *just* talking about your feelings?!

    We have probably all gotten used to having meeting We have probably all gotten used to having meetings and work conversations over Zoom or Teams in the last few years. But is looking at our own face for hours every week having a detrimental effect on how we feel about our appearance?

A recent Oxford University medical journal has reported a 55% increase in face and neck cosmetic surgery in men and women since the beginning of 2020.

Surgeons have termed this the 'Zoom effect'; a result of workers spending increasing amounts of time looking at their own faces and features while working online.

There has been a particular increase in men seeking treatment to alter their jawline and make it more 'chiselled' with strong, clear bone structure.

Have you noticed yourself becoming more critical of your face and appearance in the last few years as you have spent a lot of time working online and on camera?

    Completely cutting out the type of food that you o Completely cutting out the type of food that you ordinarily binge on is not going to work.

Much like diets, when we tell our brain that we are cutting out a particular food, it can begin to consume our thoughts.

For binge eaters, at some point, that pressure to eat the forbidden food will become too much. 

A better approach would be not to tell yourself that certain foods are 'good' or 'bad' and that some are off-limits. 

Binge-eating isn't about the particular food, it is a response to emotion, and it's this deeper root cause that needs to be addressed.
