Aesthetic Surgery

Aesthetic Surgery, commonly known as cosmetic surgery, is a specialized field of medicine focused on enhancing a person's appearance through surgical and non-surgical procedures. Unlike reconstructive surgery, which aims to restore form and function after trauma or medical conditions, aesthetic surgery primarily seeks to improve the physical appearance and symmetry of an individual. These procedures are elective and are often chosen by individuals seeking to enhance specific features or reverse signs of ageing. 

Common Conditions Treated By The Department

Key conditions and desires treated or addressed by aesthetic surgery include:

  • Facial Contouring: This includes rhinoplasty (nose reshaping), chin or cheek enhancement, and jawline reshaping.
  • Facial Rejuvenation: This encompasses face lifts, eyelid lifts (blepharoplasty), and brow lifts, aimed at reducing signs of ageing.
  • Breast Enhancement: Procedures such as breast augmentation, breast lift (mastopexy), and breast reduction fall under this category.
  • Body Contouring: This includes tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), liposuction, and procedures to lift and reshape areas such as the buttocks, thighs, and arms.
  • Skin Rejuvenation: This includes laser resurfacing, Botox injections, filler treatments, and other non-surgical procedures to enhance skin appearance.
  • Hair Transplantation: A procedure to restore hair in areas of baldness or thinning.
  • Gynecomastia Treatment: Surgical correction for enlarged male breasts.
  • Reconstructive Cosmetic Surgery: This can include procedures following significant weight loss, post-pregnancy changes, or correcting asymmetry and minor deformities.
  • Scar Revision: Surgery to improve or reduce the appearance of scars.
  • Ethnic Surgery: Procedures tailored to individuals seeking to enhance features while respecting and maintaining their ethnic identity.

Common Aesthetic Procedures

  • Breast Augmentation: This procedure involves the placement of implants to enhance breast size and shape, providing a fuller and more proportionate bustline.
  • Rhinoplasty: Often referred to as a "nose job," this procedure reshapes and restructures the nose to improve facial harmony and address aesthetic concerns.
  • Liposuction: It involves the removal of excess fat deposits from specific areas of the body to create a more contoured and streamlined appearance.
  • Blepharoplasty: This eyelid surgery addresses sagging or puffy eyelids, rejuvenating the appearance of the eyes and reducing signs of ageing.
  • Facelift: This procedure tightens and lifts sagging facial skin, smoothing wrinkles and rejuvenating the overall facial appearance.
  • Botox Injections: Botulinum toxin injections temporarily relax facial muscles, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and lines caused by muscle contractions.

Key Advantages

  • Enhanced Self-confidence: Aesthetic surgery can boost self-esteem and body image, helping individuals feel more comfortable and confident in their own skin.
  • Improved Mental Health: For some, aesthetic procedures can alleviate psychological distress associated with appearance-related concerns, leading to improved mental well-being.
  • Rejuvenated Appearance: Aesthetic surgery can provide a refreshed, youthful look, which can positively impact personal and professional relationships.
  • Greater Sense of Normalcy: Some individuals choose aesthetic surgery after significant weight loss, pregnancy, or ageing to restore their body to a more familiar and comfortable state.
  • Enhanced Quality of Life: Addressing physical imperfections or discomfort through aesthetic surgery can lead to a more active, fulfilling lifestyle.
  • Personal Empowerment: Taking control of one's appearance through aesthetic surgery can instil a sense of empowerment and self-determination.
