Dr Gillett is committed to the ethical practice of Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery. Prior to proceeding with any surgical or non-surgical intervention you will have the opportunity to meet with Dr Gillett to discuss your concerns and exactly what you hope to achieve from surgery. Dr Gillett will assess your suitability for surgery and explain to you exactly what can be achieved. In order to improve this communication between Dr Gillett and yourself we use 3 Dimensional Scanning Technology to simulate the desired result from surgery.
