Rhinoplasty
Plastic and cosmetic surgery of the nose: it reshapes the nasal pyramid, partly or as a whole, and sometimes corrects a breathing problem. It can be combined with a genioplasty to harmonise the profile.

Procedures
Each procedure has an information sheet produced under the aegis of the French Society of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery: read it carefully, or even print it, before your first consultation. The sheets are in French.
Blepharoplasty
Cosmetic surgery of the upper, lower or all four eyelids, to remove hereditary or age-related imperfections. Performed alone or combined with a lift.
Face and neck lift
The most frequently performed lift: it corrects ageing of the neck and face, from the temples down to the jowls, by repositioning the tissues and re-tensioning the skin.
Brow and temporal lift
Lift of the forehead and temples performed endoscopically: a mini-camera guides the procedure, limiting surgical trauma and greatly reducing scars.
Prominent ears
Otoplasty reshapes ears considered too visible by correcting the cartilage anomalies responsible for their protruding appearance. For children and adults alike.
Hair loss surgery
Micrografts have transformed this surgery: hair taken from the crown, where it will never fall out, is transferred to the front and the vertex.
Breast hypertrophy
Reduction of an excessive breast volume, often combined with sagging and with physical (neck, shoulder and back pain), functional and psychological consequences. “Vertical clamp” technique developed by Dr Knipper.
Breast ptosis
Sagging of the gland and stretching of the skin: the breast sits too low. Most often occurs after major weight loss or after pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Breast implants
Increasing breast volume with implants, when the breasts have always been underdeveloped or after weight loss or pregnancy. Discreet scars through an armpit or areolar incision.
Tummy tuck
Correction of excess skin and fat on the abdominal wall, up to a genuine apron of skin and fat. There is no single technique: assessing each case is key.
Liposuction
Permanently removes localised fat deposits that resist diet and exercise. It is not a weight-loss method.
Fat grafting (lipostructure)
Reinjection of one's own fat (lipofilling) to fill or reshape. Long disappointing, the technique has been refined to give more reliable results.
Thigh lift
When the skin of the inner thighs is loose, liposuction alone is not enough: the thigh lift removes the excess skin and re-tensions it in depth.
Arm lift
The arm lift (brachioplasty) corrects loose skin on the inner arms, common after repeated weight loss, when liposuction alone is not enough.
Skin surgery
Surgical removal of skin lesions when this is considered preferable, and treatment of abnormal or unsightly scars.
Dermal fillers
Injections of fluid products to reshape certain areas of the face or fill wrinkles, folds and hollows: a gentle, non-surgical cosmetic medicine technique.
Botulinum toxin
Cosmetic injections of a muscle-relaxing substance that reduces the contraction of the muscles responsible for certain expression lines.
Dermabrasion
Mechanical abrasion of the skin with a rotating brush or burr, whose speed and pressure are controlled by the surgeon.
Breast reconstruction with implants
After mastectomy, the simplest method of reconstruction when the skin and pectoral muscle allow it. It may be preceded by a period of skin expansion.
Breast reconstruction with a latissimus dorsi flap
The latissimus dorsi flap uses skin and muscle from the back, often with an implant, to recreate breast volume after mastectomy.
Breast reconstruction with a rectus abdominis flap
An original rectus abdominis flap technique: excess skin and fat from the abdomen is moved up to the chest to rebuild the breast.
Hand, burns & trauma
Hand surgery and microsurgery (hand emergencies and SOS Mains unit at the Georges Pompidou European Hospital), burn sequelae, reconstruction after accidents or mutilation.
Good to know. These sheets complement, but do not replace, your first consultation: they give you the information you need to decide with full knowledge. Every case is different and “zero risk” does not exist, as with any surgical operation. Videos open on YouTube.

Two consultations are often needed before a procedure: time to reflect is part of the journey.
