Before-and-After Photo Gallery
01.Rhinoplasty for a Deviated Nose
A young female patient presented with a visibly deviated nose and asymmetry affecting the nasal profile and frontal appearance. Rhinoplasty combined structural correction with careful reshaping to improve alignment, nasal proportions and facial balance.
02.Facial Contouring
Facial contouring combined buccal fat reduction, midface fat grafting and masseter botulinum toxin treatment to improve lower-face fullness and cheek definition. The result is a more sculpted facial contour while preserving natural volume in the midface.
03.Facial Scar Revision
A middle-aged female patient presented with a visible facial scar that was uneven, raised, distorted, and poorly aligned with the surrounding structures. Scar revision improved the scar’s width, contour and position, allowing it to blend more naturally with facial lines over time.
- 04.
Dermal Fillers for Facial Volume Loss
Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers were used to restore selected areas of facial volume and soften age-related hollowness. The treatment was planned conservatively to maintain facial movement and a natural appearance after swelling settled.
- 05.
Botulinum Toxin for Forehead and Glabellar Lines
Botulinum toxin was used to reduce dynamic forehead and frown lines caused by active muscle movement. The treatment softened the lines while preserving a natural range of facial expression.
- 06.
Acne Scar Treatment
A patient with atrophic acne scars underwent treatment aimed at reducing the depth and visibility of depressed scars. Identical lighting and camera angles show gradual improvement while demonstrating that acne scar treatment usually produces refinement rather than complete elimination.
- 07.
Cosmetic Microsurgery for Facial Injuries
Multiple severe facial lacerations were repaired with attention to wound-edge alignment, tissue handling and the direction of natural facial creases. Follow-up showed a healed scar that was less conspicuous and better integrated into the surrounding anatomy.
- 08.
Facelift for Jowling and Neck Laxity
A patient with jowling, loose facial skin and loss of jawline definition underwent facelift surgery. The procedure improved the mandibular border and neck contour while maintaining a natural facial appearance rather than creating excessive tightness.
- 09.
Neck Lift for Cervicomental Angle Improvement
A neck lift was performed to improve loose neck skin and the angle between the chin and neck. Standardised head position in both photographs demonstrates the change in neck contour without relying on chin elevation or altered posture.
- 10.
Buccal Fat Removal for Lower Cheek Fullness
A young female patient with persistent lower-cheek fullness underwent buccal fat removal after assessment of facial proportions and long-term volume balance. The result shows a slimmer lower cheek while retaining appropriate midface fullness.
- 11.
Ear Lobe Repair
A split earlobe repaired in a straight line loses a little height; repaired around the original piercing it keeps the hole but leaves a slightly less regular border. Photograph both lobes in the same frame so the reader sees the comparison the patient sees in the mirror.
- 12.
Dimple Creation
Dimple creation was performed through a small intraoral approach to create a controlled adhesion between the cheek skin and underlying muscle. The desired result is a dimple that appears during smiling while remaining subtle or absent at rest.
- 13.
Blepharoplasty: Upper and Lower Eyelid Surgery
Blepharoplasty removed or repositioned selected excess skin and fat from the upper and lower eyelids. The result improved eyelid heaviness and the lid-cheek transition while preserving natural eye shape.
- 14.
Otoplasty for Prominent Ears
A patient with prominent ears underwent otoplasty to reduce excessive projection and improve the ear-to-scalp relationship. Frontal and posterior views demonstrate improved ear position and symmetry.
- 15.
Facial Fat Grafting for Midface Hollowing
Fat harvested from another area was processed and placed into areas of midface volume deficiency. The result restored selected facial contours while recognising that some grafted fat may be naturally reabsorbed over time.
- 16.
Hair Transplantation for Hair Loss
Hair transplantation redistributed grafts into areas of thinning or hair loss to improve coverage and density. The follow-up photograph was taken after sufficient time for transplanted hair to grow, with the hairline and recipient area shown without concealment.
- 17.
Combined Facial Rejuvenation
A young female patient underwent a planned combination of several facial rejuvenation procedures at intervals to address several concerns at the same time. The sum of the component treatments produced great benefits than each separately, and the improvement can be understood accurately later.
- 18.
Brow Lift for Eyebrow Descent
A brow lift repositioned a low or descended brow while maintaining the patient’s natural brow shape and facial expression. The result improved the upper-face contour without creating an artificially surprised appearance.
- 19.
Facial Implant for Structural Projection
A facial implant was used to improve projection in an area of skeletal deficiency. The result is best assessed in profile, where the change in underlying facial contour can be seen most clearly.
- 20.
Chin Augmentation
Chin augmentation improved a recessed chin and its relationship with the nose, lips and jawline. The profile shows increased chin projection and more balanced lower-face proportions.
- 21.
Lip Augmentation
Lip augmentation was performed conservatively to improve lip volume and shape without producing excessive projection. The follow-up image shows the result after swelling had settled.
- 22.
Cheek Augmentation
Cheek augmentation was planned according to the patient’s anatomy and performed with the selected method, such as fat transfer, filler or an implant. The result improved midface projection and cheek contour while maintaining facial proportion.
- 23.
Platelet-Rich Plasma Facial
A course of platelet-rich plasma facial treatment was used to improve skin texture and overall skin quality. Standardised lighting and no makeup allow subtle changes in tone and texture to be assessed more reliably.
- 24.
Laser Skin Resurfacing
Laser skin resurfacing was used to improve selected concerns such as uneven texture, fine lines or superficial scarring. The after photograph was taken after redness had settled, with the skin shown without makeup.
- 25.
Masseter Reduction with Botulinum Toxin.
Botulinum toxin was injected into the masseter muscles to reduce lower-face width caused by muscle bulk. The result develops gradually as the masseters relax and reduce in size, and the duration of improvement is recorded with the case.
- 26.
Regenerative Hair Therapy
Regenerative hair therapy was used to support existing hair follicles and improve the appearance of thinning hair. The result demonstrates improved density rather than restoration of a completely lost hairline.
- 27.
Dark Circle Improvement
Treatment was selected according to the cause of the under-eye darkness, such as pigmentation, tear-trough hollowing or visible vascular colour. The result is assessed under standardised lighting so that improvement is not confused with shadow or exposure differences.
- 28.
Liposuction for Localised Fat
Liposuction removed localised fat from the abdomen, flanks or another selected area after assessment of skin quality and contour. Identical standing posture and recorded body weight provide a more reliable comparison of the surgical result.
- 29.
Abdominoplasty for Abdominal Skin Laxity
Abdominoplasty removed excess lower abdominal skin and tightened the abdominal wall where indicated. The result improved abdominal contour while showing the permanent low transverse scar rather than concealing it.
- 30.
Circumferential Body Lift After Weight Loss
A circumferential body lift addressed excess skin around the abdomen, flanks and back following major weight loss. Front, back and side views are used to show both the improvement in contour and the position of the belt-like scar.
- 31.
Gynecomastia Correction
Gynecomastia correction treated excess glandular tissue, fat or both to improve the male chest contour. The result is shown with the arms relaxed and raised because movement can reveal contour irregularities that are hidden at rest.
- 32.
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation used implants selected according to the patient’s desired volume, chest dimensions and tissue characteristics. The follow-up photograph shows the breasts after the implants have settled into position and includes the implant details for accurate interpretation.
- 33.
Breast Lift for Breast Ptosis
A breast lift repositioned the breast tissue and nipple while removing excess skin. The result improved breast position and shape, with the relevant scar pattern shown rather than implying that a lift creates implant-like volume.
- 34.
Breast Reduction for Neck and Shoulder Pain
Breast reduction removed excess breast tissue and reshaped the remaining breast to reduce size, heaviness and drooping. The result shows improved breast position and contour, with the amount of tissue removed recorded separately for each side. Neck and shoulder pain disappeared after the surgery.
- 35.
Male Breast Reduction with Horizontal Scars
Male breast reduction treated excess fat, glandular tissue or both to create a flatter chest. The final contour is assessed in relaxed and raised-arm positions to demonstrate how the chest behaves during movement.
- 36.
Breast Cyst or Fibroadenoma Removal
Breast lump removal focused on excising the lesion while placing the incision in the most discreet suitable location, such as the inframammary fold, areolar border or axilla. The breast contour is generally preserved, so the scar and its position are the important visible outcomes.
- 37.
Breast Fat Grafting
Breast fat grafting used the patient’s own fat to create a modest increase in breast volume and improve contour. The case is shown at an appropriate follow-up interval because some transferred fat is naturally reabsorbed and more than one session may be required.
- 38.
Inverted Nipple Correction
Inverted nipple correction released the tissues responsible for nipple retraction and restored projection according to the severity of inversion. Long-term follow-up is important because recurrence may occur months after surgery and some techniques can affect breastfeeding.
- 39.
Gender-Affirming Chest Surgery
Gender-affirming chest surgery for a transmasculine patient may involve removal of breast tissue, chest contouring and nipple-areola repositioning. Images should be published only with specific consent and should be labelled according to the actual chest procedure performed.
- 40.
Thigh Lift
A thigh lift removed excess skin from the inner thigh and improved the contour between the groin and knee. The result is assessed in the same standing position because changes in stance can significantly alter the appearance of the inner thighs.
- 41.
Arm Lift for Upper-Arm Skin Laxity
Brachioplasty removed excess skin from the upper arm and improved the hanging contour. The arms are shown raised so that the surgical scar and the change in the medial upper arm can be assessed honestly.
- 42.
Buttock Lift
A buttock lift removed excess skin and elevated the buttock fold, improving contour without claiming to create the projection of a buttock augmentation. Neutral standing and side views show the lift and the position of the upper buttock scar.
- 43.
Post-Weight-Loss Body Contouring
Body contouring after major weight loss treated excess skin and contour changes through one or more planned procedures. Body weight and dates are recorded so that the contribution of weight loss can be distinguished from the effect of surgery.
- 44.
Stretch Mark Treatment
Stretch mark treatment aims to reduce visibility rather than remove every mark. Depending on the location and technique, improvement may involve skin resurfacing, medical treatment or excision as part of another procedure such as abdominoplasty.
- 45.
Hand Rejuvenation
Hand rejuvenation may combine volume restoration with separate treatment for pigmentation or surface changes. Fat grafting can reduce the visibility of tendons and veins, but it does not treat every cause of aged-looking hands.
- 46.
Cleft Lip Repair
Cleft lip repair restored separation between the sides of the lip and improved lip and nasal alignment. Results are assessed both at rest and during crying or smiling because movement can reveal asymmetry that is not visible in a still resting photograph.
- 47.
Cleft Palate Repair
Cleft palate repair closed the palatal separation and restored the anatomy needed for feeding, speech development and oral function. The result is documented with intraoral photographs and, where available, speech assessment rather than facial photographs alone.
- 48.
Facial Paralysis Treatment
Treatment for facial paralysis was planned according to the duration and severity of weakness and the patient’s movement goals. Before-and-after assessment includes the face at rest and during attempted smiling because facial movement is the key functional outcome.
- 49.
Facial Injury Reconstruction
Facial injury reconstruction addressed the wound, underlying tissue damage and the eventual scar. The complete record may include the original injury, early repair and late healed result so that the surgical process and final outcome are both understood.
- 50.
Facial Skin Cancer Excision and Reconstruction
Facial skin cancer surgery removed the lesion with attention to clear margins and reconstructed the resulting defect. The case should identify the tumour type and margin status because cancer control is more important than the appearance of the final scar.
- 51.
Craniofacial Reconstruction
Craniofacial anomalies are often treated through staged operations over several years rather than a single procedure. Each photograph is dated and linked to the stage of reconstruction so that families can understand what each operation achieved.
- 52.
Facial Burn Reconstruction
Facial burn reconstruction treated scar contracture, skin tightness or contour distortion according to the functional problem. Long-term follow-up is important because burn scars mature gradually and results should be judged by both appearance and functions such as mouth opening or eyelid closure.
- 53.
Hemifacial Microsomia Reconstruction
Reconstruction for hemifacial microsomia addressed asymmetry involving the facial skeleton, soft tissues or ear. Consistent frontal positioning is essential because even a small head tilt can make facial symmetry appear better or worse than it is.
- 54.
Facial Birth Defect Reconstruction
Facial birth defects require treatment plans tailored to the specific condition, which may include cleft lip and palate, ear deformity or craniofacial asymmetry. The gallery links each case to the relevant condition rather than presenting unrelated congenital problems as one operation.
- 55.
Facial Swelling Excision and Reconstruction
A facial swelling was evaluated, excised and reconstructed with attention to both the pathology and the resulting contour. The final case description identifies the histology so that the photograph is understood in its proper medical context.
- 56.
Neck Swelling Excision
Neck swelling excision removed the mass while placing the incision with regard to natural skin creases and important neck structures. Identical neutral head position shows the change in contour and the healed scar location.
- 57.
Scalp Swelling Excision
Scalp swelling excision removed the lesion and closed the scalp while protecting surrounding tissue and hair-bearing areas. Long-term follow-up assesses both the scar and whether hair has regrown through or around the repaired area.
- 58.
Facial Hypertrophic Scar Treatment
Treatment for a hypertrophic facial scar was assessed over a long interval because these scars can flatten naturally over one to two years and may recur. The photograph shows changes in scar height, width, colour and texture rather than suggesting complete removal.
- 59.
Squamous Cell Carcinoma Excision & Reconstruction
Squamous cell carcinoma surgery removed the tumour with attention to margins and reconstructed the resulting defect using an appropriate local or regional technique. The case records margin status and, where relevant, lymph-node findings alongside the healed reconstruction.
- 60.
Basal Cell Carcinoma Reconstruction
Basal cell carcinoma commonly affects areas such as the nose, eyelid and lip, where even a small lesion can create a challenging defect after complete excision. Reconstruction restored contour and tissue coverage while respecting nearby facial landmarks.
- 61.
Melanoma Excision and Reconstruction
Melanoma surgery may require wide local excision, creating a defect larger than the original visible lesion. Reconstruction restored coverage after cancer removal, while the case remains part of a wider multidisciplinary melanoma treatment plan.
- 62.
Tissue Regeneration
Tissue regeneration is an approach used in selected fingertip, wound and burn reconstruction cases rather than a single operation. Its results are shown within the specific condition being treated, where tissue healing, coverage and function can be assessed meaningfully.
- 63.
Tissue Scaffold Reconstruction
A tissue scaffold was used to cover a soft-tissue defect where a flap or donor site might otherwise have been required. The result is assessed by the quality of healed coverage and the avoidance of a separate donor-site scar.
- 64.
Fingertip Regeneration
Fingertip regeneration aimed to preserve length, nail growth, sensation and useful function after fingertip loss. The finished result is compared with the uninjured hand because appearance alone does not demonstrate the quality of reconstruction.
- 65.
Finger Fracture Reconstruction
Finger fracture treatment restored alignment and stability while preserving movement. Follow-up photographs show full fist formation and extension because a finger that appears straight but cannot move normally is not a successful functional result.
- 66.
Scar Contracture Release
Scar contracture release treated restricted movement caused by tight scar tissue across a joint or functional area. The same joint position before and after surgery demonstrates the improvement in range of motion, with measured degrees included when available.
- 67.
Lower-Extremity Reconstruction
Lower-extremity reconstruction restored soft-tissue coverage and aimed to preserve weight-bearing function where possible. The outcome is assessed with the limb healed, bearing weight and fitting into appropriate footwear rather than by appearance alone.
- 68.
Breast Reconstruction After Mastectomy
Breast reconstruction restored breast shape after mastectomy using the selected reconstructive method. Both sides are shown together because symmetry is assessed against the opposite breast, and any planned second-stage balancing procedure is identified.
- 69.
Scar Revision Surgery
Scar revision improved the position, width or alignment of a previous scar without promising that the scar would disappear. The late result is shown in normal lighting so that the appearance is relevant to everyday conditions rather than only a controlled studio setting.
- 70.
Wound Management
Wound management is best documented as a dated sequence rather than a simple two-image comparison. Scale markers and consistent camera angles show how the wound changes from presentation through healing or closure.
- 71.
Trauma Reconstruction
Trauma reconstruction treated soft-tissue loss, contamination, scarring or contour deformity following an accident or injury. Graphic injury photographs may be placed behind a click-to-view control, while the healed reconstruction can be shown directly with functional outcome where relevant.
- 72.
Acute Burn Treatment Without Skin Grafting
Acute burn treatment depends on burn depth, affected body-surface area and the patient’s overall condition. Where grafting is required, the before-and-after record shows the injury, grafted area and healed coverage, with graphic images placed behind a click-to-view option.
- 73.
Carpal Tunnel Release
Carpal tunnel release treats compression of the median nerve at the wrist; the visible result is usually a small palmar incision, while the important outcomes are symptom relief, sensation and hand function. The healed incision is shown with the patient’s reported functional improvement.
- 74.
Trigger Finger Release
Trigger finger may improve with injection or may require surgical release when catching and locking persist. The visible after image shows the healed palmar incision, while video or clinical assessment demonstrates smoother finger flexion and extension.
- 75.
Dupuytren Contracture Surgery
Dupuytren contracture surgery releases thickened cords that prevent the fingers from lying flat. The tabletop test provides a clear functional comparison by showing the distance between the palm, fingers and table before and after treatment.
- 76.
Post-Burn Contracture Release
Post-burn contracture release improved movement restricted by tight scar tissue and resurfaced the released area with the appropriate graft or flap. The result is assessed by range of motion as well as by the appearance of the graft.
- 77.
Ganglion Cyst Excision
Ganglion cyst excision removed the cyst and addressed its connection to the underlying joint or tendon sheath where appropriate. Late follow-up is important because absence of recurrence is a more meaningful outcome than the early postoperative appearance.
- 78.
Hand Tumour Excision and Reconstruction
Hand tumour surgery balanced complete tumour removal with preservation of grip, pinch and finger movement. The case includes the histology and demonstrates functional recovery after the wound has healed.
- 79.
Diabetic Wound Reconstruction
Diabetic wound reconstruction combined wound closure with management of blood supply, infection and glycaemic control. Serial photographs with scale markers show the wound’s progress and help distinguish surgical healing from temporary improvement.
- 80.
Diabetic Limb Salvage
Diabetic limb salvage aimed to preserve a functional foot and avoid amputation where the circulation, infection and tissue condition allowed. The result is shown weight-bearing and in footwear because a healed wound alone does not demonstrate useful limb function.
- 81.
Bedsore Reconstruction
Bedsore reconstruction closed the pressure sore with an appropriate flap or wound-coverage procedure after assessment of the patient’s overall condition. Long-term success also depends on pressure relief, nursing care and seating, so the late follow-up is clinically important.
- 82.
Nerve Injury Repair
Nerve injury repair aims to restore useful movement and sensation, but nerve recovery develops gradually over months or years. Before-and-after documentation therefore shows the same movement, such as pinch, grip or wrist extension, together with the recovery interval.
- 83.
Thumb Reconstruction
Thumb reconstruction restored the hand’s ability to pinch, grasp and oppose the fingers after congenital absence or acquired thumb loss. The functional result is more important than making the reconstructed thumb look identical to a normal thumb.
- 84.
Tendon Transfer for Foot Drop
Tendon transfer and tendon reconstruction restore specific movements by rerouting or repairing tendons, while foot-drop surgery is assessed through standing and walking. Local flaps and free flaps restore soft-tissue coverage with tissue matched to the defect, and the donor site, range of motion, gait or grip should be shown according to the operation performed.
