Plastic Surgeons in the UAE
Plastic surgery divides into reconstructive and aesthetic practice. Reconstructive work restores form and function after trauma, cancer surgery, burns or congenital difference, and includes breast reconstruction, hand surgery and microsurgery. Aesthetic surgery covers procedures such as rhinoplasty, breast augmentation, abdominoplasty, facelift and liposuction. The UAE — Dubai in particular — has an unusually high concentration of aesthetic practice, including a significant international patient population.
Choosing a practitioner
Confirm the surgeon is licensed specifically in plastic surgery. Titles such as 'cosmetic surgeon' or 'aesthetic doctor' may reflect a different training route and scope of licence, and the distinction is not always obvious from a clinic website. Ask where the procedure is performed — a licensed hospital or day-surgery facility rather than a clinic room — and who provides anaesthesia. Ask to see unretouched before-and-after photographs of the surgeon's own patients at a similar starting point, and establish in advance what revision surgery would cost if it is needed.
