Specialist in facial surgery and skin improvement (BIG Number 9048706320)
Bio
I am a maxillofacial surgeon with a passion for refined, natural results. My background in both functional and aesthetic facial surgery means that I view every procedure as a balance between form, function and harmony.
With over 25 years of experience in hospital and clinical settings, I combine medical precision with an artistic eye for detail. My approach is personal, safe and subtle, focused on refreshing a person's appearance without losing their character.
