Professional Profile

Andrew Greensmith trained in New Zealand and gained his FRACS in 2001. As a senior medical student, Andrew spent a four-month elective period in plastic surgery in Mexico City, Mexico, which further stimulated a longstanding interest in cleft lip and palate, craniofacial surgery, and aesthetic surgery. In 2002 Andrew completed further subspecialty training in both aesthetic and craniofacial surgery in Paris, France. This training included undertaking research into the use of fibrin glue in facelift surgery and long-term outcomes in craniofacial surgery. In Paris, time was also spent focusing on complex ear reconstruction. In 2003, he began another fellowship in rhinoplasty and cleft lip and palate surgery in Nantes, France. This was followed by a one year cleft/craniofacial fellowship in Melbourne at the Royal Children’s Hospital which included further intensive training in cleft and craniofacial surgery as well as rhinoplasty, ear reconstruction and aesthetic surgery. Andrew continues to work as a consultant at the Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne as well as a consultant appointment at the Royal Victorian Eye and Ear Hospital, Melbourne as part of the Otology team for complex ear reconstruction and microtia. Andrew has special interests in facial aesthetic surgery, including rhinoplasty, reconstructive and aesthetic breast surgery, ear deformities, skin cancer and general hand surgery.
