A note from the representative director

“The question is not how many cc. It is where, and how much.”

I trained as a general surgeon, operating on the neck, abdomen, blood vessels and legs. That work taught me how to treat the human body: find the right tissue plane, dissect only what is needed, control bleeding and close in a way that helps recovery.

I now focus on breast surgery, liposuction, fat grafting and body filler. I call my approach Silhouette Fit. The name describes how I work: I look for the proportion that suits each person, and I check every plan from the front, at 45 degrees and from the side.

Design can be creative. On the operating table I stay conservative and strict. I tell patients plainly what is not possible, and I see each patient myself from the first consultation through surgery and follow-up.
