MMC Anti-Aging @ North Shore
Surgery is planned,
not purchased
Every operation here is performed by a plastic surgeon certified by the Royal College, at North Shore Plastic Surgery — a separate company that shares this address. What you book from this website is a consultation.
Consultation fees are shown; the operation is quoted in writing after an examination. Cosmetic surgery is self-pay. Reconstructive and hand surgery covered by MSP is North Shore Plastic Surgery’s practice, not ours, and goes through the normal referral route.
Why you cannot
book an operation here
- A quote before an examination is not a quote
- What is actually indicated depends on your anatomy and your history. Anyone willing to price an operation from a photograph is pricing something they have not seen.
- The surgeon decides, and can say no
- A consultation can end with the surgeon declining, or recommending something smaller, or recommending nothing. That is a real outcome, not a failed appointment.
- Two companies, one address
- We arrange and coordinate the consultation and handle skin preparation before and scar work after. The operation, the consent form and the medical record belong to the surgical clinic.
Not sure where you fit?
These are sorted by what is bothering you rather than by treatment name. Each page says what actually helps, what does not, and when the honest answer is that nothing here is needed.
- Loose Skin After Weight LossLosing the weight is the hard part and you have done it. What is left is usually a skin problem rather than a fat problem, and those have completely different answers.
- Fatigue & Low EnergyThis is the concern where we are least likely to sell you anything, and we would rather say that at the top of the page than at the end of a consultation.
- Dullness & Uneven ToneDullness and dehydration are a texture problem, not a shape problem. That distinction decides which half of the menu is even relevant.
- Volume Loss & HollowsVolume loss is the change people describe as looking tired or gaunt without being able to name a line. It is also the one where over-treatment is most visible from across a room.
- Forehead & Frown LinesForehead and frown lines are muscle before they are skin. The question that decides your result is not the dose — it is whether the line is still only there when you move.
- Hooded Upper LidsThe line where this stops being an injectable question and becomes a surgical one is unusually clear, and you are entitled to be told which side of it you are on.
- Jawline & Contour LossThe most common reason people book here, and the one where the honest answer changes most with age. In your forties a device usually does it. In your sixties it usually does not.
- Nasolabial FoldsNasolabial folds are usually a symptom. Filling the fold itself is the most common way to end up looking heavy in the lower face.
- Stubborn Body FatA pocket that stays the same size while the rest of you changes. Usually the flanks, the lower abdomen, or under the chin. The useful question is not which machine to use — it is whether what you are looking at is fat at all.
- Under-Eye Hollows & ShadowsThe most common request here, and the one where the answer is most often no. Under-eye shadow has at least four causes and filler helps exactly one of them.
