  • Any tests you’ll need before your surgery
  • The procedure, the different techniques available and the anaesthetic
  • Any potential complications and risks and how they may affect you
  • The cooling-off period to allow you time to fully consider whether to go ahead with the surgery
  • The personalised aftercare you’ll receive

You may also need to have a pre-operative assessment before the procedure.
