Dr Dan and his team at 101 are exceptional. I was made to feel so comfortable and relaxed during my procedure and everything is done with the highest level of professionalism. Can’t recommend them enough!
Staff were all extremely kind and thoughtful all through the process. I always come away feeling like I’ve had the best chat with good friends over a delicious coffee in a gorgeous spot. And all the while… also leaving with healthier skin. I’ve loved working with Emma and Duncan and everyone else at 101!

Pectoral implant surgery is highly customisable, with implant shapes and sizes selected to complement your natural build.
Pectoral implants differ in shape, projection and rigidity. Your surgeon will select an implant based on your desired result and your natural anatomy.
