Breast Art


What of the woman who possesses living art?
While a rock sculpture is non conscious, unable to feel the appreciation of those who look up to its curve and shape, “Breast Art” is a living, thriving art. The feeling of sensuality, femininity and womanhood induced by the breast sculpture emit from within, giving the artwork an unequaled depth of meaning as the woman wears her artwork into the world.
The patient, the woman, is the ultimate exhibitor and the custodian has the power to reveal the truth, or merely address those who compliment her with a mysterious smile.
However the resulting art is chosen to be displayed, it is without question that as an artist and as a surgeon, it is an honour and a privilege to be able to sculpture and create living art, breast art.

Surgery as Art


It starts with artistic inspiration, the idea from which the sculpture is born.
Then the collection of knowledge and technique nurtured in the artist during his training and developed and mastered over an age is called upon to create surgically, the perfect form that has been envisaged, until the magic in the surgeon’s hand transforms the female's body into a work of art.
And so there's a fusion of surgery and art as the seemingly opposed science of dividing tissue and the world of art merge seamlessly.
The irony is that while art is meant to be addressed, admired and appreciated, the artistic surgeon is so highly skilled that the artwork, which he has created, is in fact presumed to be the work of nature and not recognised at all.

Breast Augmentation Case Study

Jacqueline - fitness instructor and part-time model wanting a career in fashion.
"I was always told my breast size wasn't ideal," says Jacqueline. "And when I went shopping I felt limited about what fashionable clothes I could wear."

Jacqueline decided to have implants and she says, now, "I feel more confident and feminine."

In my opinion Jacqueline had beautiful shoulders and nice hips, yet she lacked the hourglass figure she desired as her breasts were small.

The aim was to create breasts to balance her petite figure, which would allow her to pursue her career.

Jacqueline had tubular-shaped breasts with a short distance from the nipple and the crease under the breast.

Due to her natural breast shape, I chose a very specialised tear-drop shape so I could lift the nipple position and correct the tubular shape.

Her breasts slope gently from her shoulders to her nipples, then arc fully to the creases under her breasts.

The width of the implants created a perfect cleavage, and fullness at the sides made a contrast with Jacqueline's waist, producing her sought after hourglass figure.

Choosing the right surgeon for Breast Augmentation


Choosing the right surgeon for the job is the most important element of a safe and successful Breast Augmentation.

I recommend the following six steps, to help you choose the right surgeon for you:

1. Ask around to check the surgeon’s reputation but remember that someone else’s choice may not necessarily be the best choice for you.
2. See as many different surgeons for a consultation as you need to, until you feel comfortable and confident.
3. Communication is key between you and the surgeon so make sure you listen to the surgeon throughout your consultation to decide whether they have understood your needs and expectations and whether they speak about things like individually customised procedures, balance with your body and aesthetically beautiful outcomes instead of just larger breasts.
4. Request several before and after photographs of their patients. This is the greatest indication of the artistic ability of the surgeon.
5.  Enquire as to the surgeons training specifically in breast augmentation and how many procedures they have accomplished.
6.  Finally, ask if its possible to speak to one of the surgeons previous patients.

IPL and its uses


IPL (intense pulse light) offers treatment for a varied range of skin conditions and of course hair removal.
IPL can be used to stimulates fibroblasts in the dermis to help promote new collagen which in turn will give the skin a smoother, glowing appearance and reduce fine lines. It can also be used to reduce sun and age spots and is extremely effective in treating Rosacia and spider veins.
Most commonly used to treat the face, neck and chest area, IPL can also be used on other areas of the body, like arms and hands. Generally the best results are achieved with at least four treatments at monthly intervals.
IPL also offers permanent hair reduction. Hair removal treatment requires approximately 6 treatments. All areas of the body can be treated effectively, including bikini, legs, back, underarms and the face.
