• A 47 year old patient had a face & neck lift. Also known as a Rhytidectomy or a Cervicoplasty, which is the tightening of excess skin around the neck area with an improvement in the neck on profile as well as the mid and lower face. This assists with a more youthful profile.
• Furthermore this procedure will improve the jowls as an added benefit.
• Grayscale pictures taken 2 weeks post-surgery.

• Patient is a 66 year-old female.
• Patient was concerned about the sagging of her lower face, prominence of jowels and excess skin giving her a turkey neck appearance. She was also unhappy with the bags under her eyelids. The loss of elasticity and loss of volume results in sagging of the facial soft tissues.
• To improve on these, a face and neck lift with a lower eyelid tuck was performed in the rooms under conscious sedation. She recovered better and faster by not opting for a general anaesthetic.
• The after photos were taken 6 weeks after surgery.

An upper blepharoplasty is a procedure whereby excess skin is removed from the upper eyelid to give it a less heavy feel and more open look.

• 51 year-old female patient.

Body contouring, or VASER 4D body sculpting, refers to the use of liposuction techniques to sculpt and shape stubborn fat deposits of the abdomen, back, lower body and arms. VASER stands for ‘Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance.’ This technique of liposuction uses ultrasound waves to break up and liquefy fat cells, making them easier to extract.

• This 33-year-old mother of two underwent liposuction to the back and flanks combined with a tummy tuck.
• Results are seen 8 weeks following her procedure.

•  59-year old female patient.

Before and After of More than a Mommy Makeover – this 54yo female patient took the 2020 lockdown as a challenge and lost 50 kilograms by improving her diet and exercising. With massive weight loss comes a lot of loose skin and stretched tissues – as seen in the deflated and drooping breasts and loose excess skin in the tummy and back. A lower body lift (called a belt lipectomy) and breast lift with 250g high profile implants was done. The results are shown 6 weeks following surgery and scars will take about a year to fade and soften. Results will vary from patient to patient. Renuvion can be used in areas of loose stretched tissues for skin tightening and to further enhance results after massive weight loss.

Tummy tuck/vaser lipo with incredible results.

• Mother of two children.

• What is VASER Liposculpture?
• VASER stands for ‘Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance’. It is a liposuction technique that uses ultrasound waves to break up and liquefy fat, making it easier to extract. The liquefied fat can then be drawn out through a cannula tube, resulting in less damage to nearby tissues compared to traditional liposuction.Pictures of our patient were taken 6 weeks apart and the results are incredible!

• Snatched waist? The best option is liposuction of excess fat in the flank and love handle area. This will turn a square into more of an hourglass.
•  When combined with a tummy tuck, as can be seen in this 35-year old mother of two, the waist can be further defined by the tightening of the six pack muscles (called rectus muscle plication).
• Removing the lower floating ribs has been practiced in some countries but is not done at the practice as it can be detrimental to other important functions – ribs (even floating) are there for a reason.

The Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) surgery is a cosmetic surgery designed to enhance the shape and size of the buttocks. This procedure involves a combination of Liposuction (4D ultrasound liposculpture – the latest technology in Liposuction), and fat is removed from the desired areas. (different body areas such as the abdomen, thighs, and back.) The extracted fat is then washed, processed and re-injected into the buttocks to smoothen any irregularities and add volume. BBL surgery is a relatively simple procedure that can be completed within a few hours.
