Every procedure requires an assessment first: not every patient is a candidate, and part of a surgeon’s job is to say so honestly.
Reshaping of the bone and cartilage framework of the nose to change its shape, size or projection. It can be combined with septal correction when breathing is obstructed.
The final result takes twelve to eighteen months to settle: the tip is the last area to lose swelling.
Removal of excess skin and fat pads from the upper lids, lower lids or both. It corrects a tired look and, when skin rests on the lashes, improves the visual field.
Cartilage reshaping to reduce ear prominence, through an incision hidden behind the ear. It is also performed in children from six years of age.
Placement of a chin implant to balance the profile. It is often combined with rhinoplasty: a profile reads as a whole, not as an isolated nose.
Removal of excess abdominal skin and fat, usually with repair of the muscles separated by pregnancy and repositioning of the navel.
It is not a weight-loss operation: it is indicated once weight is stable and the skin no longer responds to exercise.
Fat removal with cannulas to reshape the contour. Vaser and high-definition lipo-sculpture allow muscular definition in selected patients.
It is not a weight-loss method either, and it does not correct loose skin.
Volume and projection with your own fat harvested by liposuction, or with implants. Thirty to fifty per cent of the grafted fat is reabsorbed.
For safety, fat is placed strictly in the subcutaneous plane: intramuscular injection carries a described risk of fat embolism.
Placement of breast implants through an inframammary, periareolar or axillary approach, in a subglandular, submuscular or dual plane. Brand, profile and volume are chosen from your measurements and tissue.
Implants are not lifetime devices: at some point they will need exchange or removal.
Repositioning of the nipple-areola complex with removal of excess skin, with or without volume reduction. It also relieves neck and back pain when the breasts are very heavy.
Restoration of volume and shape after mastectomy, using an implant, expander or your own tissue, in one or several stages. It does not interfere with cancer surveillance.
Release of the median nerve at the wrist to treat night-time numbness and loss of grip strength.
Excision of moles, cysts, lipomas and skin lesions with pathology study, and correction of keloid or hypertrophic scars, including burn sequelae.
Selective relaxation of the muscles of expression to soften dynamic wrinkles. It starts working between day three and day seven and lasts three to six months.
Hyaluronic acid to restore volume or correct folds. It is absorbable and lasts six to eighteen months.
