Cosmetic Treatments & Patient Experience

Breast Augmentation & Lift Options

Patients can choose round or teardrop (anatomical) implants, or combine a breast lift with augmentation when both lift and added volume are desired.

Breast Reduction / Implant Removal

These procedures may be suitable for patients seeking relief from back or neck strain or those wanting to remove previous implants.

Tummy Tuck Choices

Options include a mini tummy tuck for below-navel tightening, a full tummy tuck for wider muscle and skin tightening, or a tummy tuck combined with VASER® to refine contours. VASER® uses ultrasound to loosen fat before suction, making it easier to remove.

Hospital Setting

The hospital offers JCI-accredited operating theaters, on-site imaging including 3.0T MRI and 128-slice CT, and multidisciplinary support for patients combining procedures or traveling with existing health conditions.
