It is not uncommon for the skin above our eyes to start to droop as we get older, causing what is often referred to as the hood effect, and this make eyes look tired and the face look old. Brow lift surgery is a simple procedure carried out to lift the area directly above the eye, opening up the eye area and making the face look younger. It involves lifting the brow itself and tightening the muscles which have been stretched over time, as well as tightening any loose skin in the area and reducing excess fatty tissue. While brow lift surgery is often performed for purely cosmetic reasons, drooping brows and upper eye lids can affect vision in the most extreme of cases and this can be a quick and simple way to rectify the situation.

Getting older can take its toll on the appearance, particularly to the skin around the eyes which can become loose and wrinkled, start to sag, and make the eyes look tired, adding years to the face. Eye bag removal surgery helps to restore youthfulness to the face; despite the name this procedure covers surgery to remove excess skin and fatty tissue from above the eye, removing the hood of skin which can develop as we get older. It can also be used to remove excess fatty tissue and skin from underneath the eyes, and smooth wrinkles to corners of the eyes, often known as crow’s feet.
 

Many people are unhappy with the size, shape and position of their nose, so if you are feeling this way you are not alone. The nose is the central feature of the face, how it looks can determine what the face looks like overall, whether this is because it is large and dominates the face, if it is crooked and makes you self conscious, or for any other reason. Nose reshaping surgery, also known as rhinoplasty, is one of the most common cosmetic surgery procedures performed across the world, and as well as being requested for cosmetic reasons, it can also be used to correct breathing issues and to help alleviate the symptoms of sleep apnoea. Our surgeons can make your nose smaller, more prominent, slimmer, wider or smooth away unwanted lumps or bumps to help you to feel completely confident in your appearance.

The visible signs of ageing such as lines and wrinkles, loose skin and brown spots, no longer have to be an inevitable part of getting old, and many people choose to reverse these signs with the help of face lift surgery and other surgical and non-surgical procedures. Face lift surgery, also known as rhytidectomy, is one of the most commonly requested procedures by both men and women who want to look as young as they feel. It is performed to remove or reduce the skin that has lost its natural elasticity - usually around the eyes, mouth and jaw line - smooth the skin, reduce lines and wrinkles and rejuvenate a tired-looking appearance.

The shape, size or positioning of the ears can make a huge difference to whether a person has confidence in their appearance or not, and for many years people have been choosing to have ear reshaping surgery to increase their self-confidence. Ear reshaping surgery is also known as otoplasty and is a surgical procedure that is carried out to reduce the size of the ears, reshape the ears, or reset protruding ears so that they sit closer to the head. This very straightforward procedure can be carried out on both adults and children who feel their lives are being negatively affected by the appearance of their ears.

Traditionally, a face with a chiseled look, relatively large chin and solid, angular profile has been regarded as the embodiment of masculinity. If you would prefer your chin to be a slightly different size or shape, chin implants are an effective solution, producing features that are better proportioned and more balanced. Chin implants can be combined with other facial procedures such as a face lift or nose reshaping surgery to achieve a better facial balance.

Despite a lifestyle of healthy eating and exercise people often find pockets of fat that are hard to remove. Though perfectly natural many men seek to remove these fat pockets for aesthetic reasons.

HELPING PATIENTS TO ACHIEVE A HEALTHIER BODY WEIGHT AND LIFESTYLE

In the UK alone it is estimated that over 10million adults are classified as obese, which is based on a body mass index – BMI – of above 30kg/m2. However, maintaining a healthy weight, and lifestyle, in today’s world is an ever increasing challenge. As a result a lot of people are turning to weight loss procedures for a solution. 

Liposuction surgery is used to remove stubborn pockets of fat from specific areas of the body, and should not be seen as a weight loss tool. For many men exercise and diet alone cannot shift certain areas of fat around the chest, abdomen, legs, chin and other areas of the body, and this can knock body confidence. Liposuction surgery, also known as fat removal, can be used to remove excess fatty tissue and sculpt the area to ensure it is smooth, tight, and looks as you wish it to. Liposuction can be used to remove fat from almost any area of the body and is used to reduce the appearance of “man boobs” during male chest reduction surgery.
 

Significant weight loss can mean that a person is left with loose skin around the abdomen which no amount of exercise can shift. Many men in this situation opt for tummy tuck surgery, also known as abdominoplasty, to smooth and tighten the skin to create a flatter and more desirable stomach area. Your surgeon will make an incision around the abdomen, lift the excess skin into its new position and stitch it into place before removing the excess skin. The results will be a smoother and tighter abdomen that will show off the results of your hard work in losing weight.
 

It is not unusual for men to have what are commonly known as “man boobs” due to a condition called gynaecomastia, and it is becoming increasingly common for males patients to undergo male breast reduction to reduce the appearance of these. No amount of exercise or dieting can rid a man of this excess fatty tissue if it is diagnosed as gynaecomastia and male chest reduction surgery can be a lifesaver for those men with the condition. The fatty tissue is removed using liposuction techniques and the results are a smooth, tight chest that can give a man real and lasting body confidence.
