Mr Ross will show you various preoperative and postoperative results so that you can understand what can be achieved and what is to be expected.
In the more youthful face face-lifting remains an option esp for those with early jowls and those lacking definition around the jaw line. Mr Ross believes that for one to be able to access the neck and the jaw sufficiently that often a full-face incision is required. Elevating the skin away from the underlying tissues allows access for the platysma muscle to be tightened directly. The repositioning of this muscle allows the jaw to be better defined and then the midface lifted higher using the SMAS tissue to give extra volume. The results are seen after all the swelling has settled showing an improvement in the jowl and jaw area.

A facelift can help re volumize the face and by using different vectors within the facelift one can restore the volume into a more youthful position. Elevating the skin away from the underlying tissues allows access for the platysma muscle to be tightened directly. The repositioning of this muscle allows the jaw to be better defined and then the midface lifted higher using the SMAS tissue to give extra volume. The results are seen after all the swelling has settled showing an improvement in the jowl and jaw area. Mr Ross does not use drains and patients are encouraged to mobilise immediately after the facelift procedure.
With pregnancy, the layers of the abdominal wall are stretched and the skin is stretched. The amount of skin excess removed is from just above the pubic hairline up to the level of the tummy button. The remaining skin is dissected and pulled down. The irregularities in the skin are improved but patients do have a scar that can take some time to heal. The pictures shown are at 8 months and the scar is starting to mature and fade.
With pregnancy, the layers of the abdominal wall are stretched and the skin is stretched. The muscles are pushed apart and the bowel contents move forward. After tightening the abdominal wall the amount of skin excess removed is from just above the pubic hairline up to the level of the tummy button. Liposuction helps to decrease the amount of excess fat and this aids the aesthetic result in most cases. The scar will mature over the coming months and often it can take 12-18 months for the scar to mature. The result seen here is at 6 weeks.
With weight loss, there is often an excess of skin that is most apparent in the lower abdomen. However upper skin excess may also be apparent and it is important to consider the pros and cons of an abdominoplasty and a vertical scar abdominoplasty to address all the relevant areas. Often a traditional abdominoplasty can improve the upper excess although this is very patient dependent. In this case, a traditional abdominoplasty has been performed. The scars seen in this patient are seen after 6 months postop and the swelling above the scar and the quality of the scar will still take a number of further months to settle and mature.
A tummy tuck strengthens the abdominal wall, allows removal of skin excess and by stretching the remaining skin the skin wrinkling and stretch marks are often improved. This lady is seen 6 months following an abdominoplasty. Mr Ross does not use any drains and patients are mobilised immediately following surgery allowing them to go home within 24 hours following surgery. This lady has significant problems with abdominal wall laxity and bulge / hernia. In severe cases, such as this, a lot of abdominal wall is required and the swelling above the scar and the lower abdomen takes 6-12 months to settle. The scars will continue to fade in the coming months and there will still be a reduction in swelling. Even so this lady demonstrates an excellent abdominal rejuvenation result at 6 months.
At a consultation, It is important to run through all the pros and cons and the various options of and look through preoperative and postoperative images so that you can be empowered to proceed.

Although pregnancy and weight loss are the commonest reasons for abdominal rejuvenation another reason for patients requesting abdominal rejuvenation is skin resurfacing to help with the appearance. In this case the lady presented with several previous abdominal scars and also a number of incisional hernias following previous intra-abdominal surgery. This lady had both functional problems with pain / discomfort and aesthetic concerns. She already had a midline laparotomy scar and although it is often impossible to remove this the appearance can be greatly improved. The first part of this surgery is to have the abdominal wall repaired. Following this the skin can elevated from the scars and the then repositioned in a manner that will allow the abdominal wall to be resurfaced.

This lady has previously had a mastopexy implant procedure and wished to remove her implants. It is always difficult to predict how the breasts will appear after removal especially when a mastopexy or breast lift has previously been performed. It is important to consider the pros and cons of removal only and the pros and cons of removal and replacement. This lady has also considered a further breast lift breast lift and the use of autologous fat transfer. Her prime aim was to remove the implants and during surgery the capsules were very thin. Thus, only a partial capsulectomy was performed and the tissue sent for pathological analysis. Everything has settled well after 6 weeks and she is very happy with the result. It may be in time that she considers further volumisation but often patients are surprised at the volume that they are left with. Often they have become used to the volume and cannot remember life without implants.
At a consultation, it is important to run through all the pros and cons and the various options of breast so that you can be empowered to proceed. In particular, one must consider whether to remove all of the capsule or part of the capsule. Mr. Ross will show you various preoperative and postoperative results so that you can understand what can be achieved and what is to be expected.

This lady had very thick capsules and had felt unwell for some time as a result of the breast implants. She was very anxious and was unable to stop smoking for the procedure. An en bloc removal of the implants along with the capsules was performed. It is difficult for patients to be able to decide on whether to have an en bloc removal or not. Mr Ross’s advises all patients with rupture / leak or in the case of very thick capsules / seromas or abnormalities in the capsule to undergo en bloc removal. Mr Ross always sends all the capsule for analysis. The results are shown at 6 weeks postop and there still is some swelling and irregularities.
