About

A practice built around one surgeon's judgement

Small, specialist and deliberately limited in scope. This page covers how the practice works, what it holds itself to, and what a patient travelling from abroad should expect at each stage.

How we practise

The standards this practice holds itself to

Autologous tissue first

The patient's own cartilage and tissue are used for structural support wherever the anatomy allows, avoiding the long-term migration and extrusion risks that come with synthetic implants.

No guaranteed outcomes

Healing varies between individuals and cannot be promised in advance. Any practice offering a guaranteed result is describing marketing, not medicine.

Unedited before-and-after only

Clinical photographs are published unretouched, under consistent lighting and angles, with the standard disclaimer that individual results vary.

Verified reviews only

Patient feedback is published only where it can be verified. Incentivised or unverifiable testimonials are not used.

Credentials stated plainly

Board certification, training and society membership are listed so they can be checked against the public registers, not simply asserted.

Risk disclosed before consent

Complication rates, recovery demands and the possibility of revision are covered at consultation — before any decision, not after.

Send your history and photographs

A written assessment comes back before you commit to travel — what the surgeon believes is achievable for your anatomy, which procedure fits, and an honest note where expectations and anatomy do not line up. Nothing is scheduled at this stage.

Examination with the operating surgeon

In person, in English. Physical examination, structural assessment and, where the anatomy is complex, imaging. The plan is discussed in full — including the risks and what a revision would involve if one were ever needed.

The operation itself

Performed by the surgeon who planned it, under the supervision of a board-certified anaesthetist with continuous monitoring throughout. The technique and materials are the ones agreed at consultation, not substituted on the day.

The first two weeks

Swelling and bruising peak in the first 72 hours and then subside. Splints or sutures typically come out around day 7. Written aftercare instructions in English cover what is normal, what is not, and when to call.

Months, not days

Contour continues to refine for 6 to 12 months, longer after a revision. Follow-up continues after you fly home, by email and by call, for as long as recovery needs watching.
