The tumescent liposuction technique has been specially developed by cosmetic dermatologists. It is performed entirely under local anaesthetic and is recognised as the safest form of liposuction. The objective is to improve body contours by removing unwanted fat in a very controlled manner.

The MACS (minimal access cranial suspension) lift is an excellent facelift that elevates the lower two thirds of the face and neck in a natural vertical way reversing the gravitational effect. At KM Surgical the facelift is performed expertly with only light sedation and local anaesthetic.

There are different types of eyelid surgery and it is important to have a detailed assessment of your eyes and surrounding facial structure.

Fat transfer to breasts, buttocks, face, eyelids and back of hands is becoming a preferred way of using your own fat cells to augment areas of fat loss. Other advances are in the management of scars and skin quality with micro and nano fat.

VASER Lipo® uses an ultrasonic technology that is tissue-selective. Maximum results and minimum downtime are what you can expect with VASER Lipo®.

COOLTECH® is ideal for those who are healthy and in good shape but just have some ‘trouble spots’ that don’t respond to healthy lifestyle and eating. Cooltech® works by freezing (down to -8ºC) the fat deposits causing the fat cells to crystalise and then break down and die.

SkinPen™ and Dermapen™ are advanced skin needling technology for damaged face and neck skin.

The Excel V KTP® Laser works when the yellow/green laser light is absorbed by blood vessels which become heated and precisely destroyed (selective photothermolysis) Because of this, damage to the skin is minimal. A very good laser for facial veins and rosacea.

Micropigmentation is a specialised tattooing process where pigments are implanted into the skin to create a lasting shape and colour.

Skin ageing has a number of contributing factors; environmental (pollution), lifestyle (smoking, sun damage) hormonal factors. PRP helps to reverse this damage.

UVB is short for ultraviolet B, a part of the light spectrum that has anti-inflammatory effects on your immune system and is useful for treating many conditions like psoriasis and eczema. At KM Surgical our phototherapy lamps are narrowband at 312nm for optimal safety.
