One surgeon, start to finish
The surgeon who examines you and plans your operation is the surgeon who performs it. There is no hand-off between the person who consults and the person who operates.

Before & after images go up on that page. The posts stay in chronological order, nothing is reordered, and the comments stay open. That is the most honest way for you to look and judge for yourself — rather than being shown a set of images we picked in advance.

A short guide
Before-and-after photographs are a useful tool, but only if you know what you are looking at. The four points below apply to any provider’s imagery, including ours.
A before-and-after pair is only trustworthy when both images were taken at the same angle, in the same light, in the same posture and without make-up. A camera moved a few degrees, or a different light source, can produce a “result” no scalpel ever created.
Look for the timing of the second image. Tissue stays swollen for weeks to months, and the final shape of a nose or a breast usually settles only after months of follow-up.
A photograph means something only when you know who performed that case. It is a fair question to ask outright at your consultation: is the surgeon sitting in front of you the one who will hold the scalpel?
Seven questions to ask a surgeonBone structure, skin thickness, tissue quality and previous surgery differ from person to person. Someone else’s photographs show you a surgeon’s judgement and craft — they do not show you your own result.
What shapes a result
The surgeon who examines you and plans your operation is the surgeon who performs it. There is no hand-off between the person who consults and the person who operates.

The founder’s recordThe hospital’s scope includes revision of previously operated noses and breast reconstruction after cancer treatment — work that rests on a reconstructive foundation, not on cosmetic surgery alone.
Reconstructive surgeryBy area
Each group of procedures has its own page covering indications, technique, recovery and the limits worth weighing — the grounding you need to read imagery properly.
The consultation
Out of respect for patient privacy, part of our medical imagery is shown only in person at the hospital. That is also when it is most useful to see — once the surgeon has examined you and knows which cases genuinely resemble yours.
A note on how images are published
Images are published with the patient’s consent. Surgical outcomes depend on each person’s anatomy, tissue and healing — which is why the photographs of one case are never a promise of the result for anyone else.
A consultation where the surgeon examines you, shows the relevant imagery and is clear about what is realistic.
