It is our duty to be able to offer surgery which is effective, safe and ultimately gives a natural result. Emphasis must be placed on natural. This is etched in my philosophy from my initial consultation, through to my postoperative care. Though I am sure that no plastic surgeon would ever disagree with this statement, I feel I adhere to it stronger than most.
I absolutely abhor any possibility that a patient of mine could look stretched, pulled or distorted in any way. Most people of course have seen examples of bad plastic surgery which stands out from a far as being unnatural. As far as I am concerned these examples sometimes give plastic surgery an undeserved bad reputation. The aim of surgery is to make people look better not different. I believe in classic, natural, soft beauty.
