Cosmetic surgery

Aesthetic surgery is a branch of surgery that aims to modify or reshape certain parts of the face or body over the long term.
Cosmetic surgery procedures at Claris Clinic are performed by highly qualified surgeons assisted by state-of-the-art equipment to ensure your safety and a harmonious result.
There are various areas in which the surgeon can intervene, including :

• Face and neck
• The arms
• The belly
• The chest
• Buttocks

Cosmetic surgery procedures are performed on both men and women, and are never trivial.
Indeed, in the vast majority of procedures, an incision is made.
So it’s important to choose a reputable clinic such as the Claris Clinic, and a renowned surgeon.
The primary objective of this type of surgery is to erase a complex that can cause significant discomfort in some patients, and thus enable you to blossom.

Complementary to surgery, aesthetic medicine essentially focuses on a variety of non-surgical treatments to improve your well-being, such as injections, facial and body skin treatments or even definitive laser hair removal.
The results achieved with aesthetic medicine are observable in the short to medium term and often require regular maintenance, unlike cosmetic surgery, which aims for a more definitive change.

A variety of reasons can motivate patients to undergo cosmetic surgery, the most prevalent of which is the desire to beautify certain features of the body or face.
But it can also have a far more impactful function, helping a patient with a complex about protruding ears or breasts that are considered too small.
Cosmetic surgery can make a lasting contribution to their well-being and personal fulfillment.
Beyond its psychological impact, cosmetic surgery can also be functional.
It provides relief for a patient whose daily life is impaired by a physical characteristic.
This could be the case, for example, of a woman suffering from back pain due to an oversized chest, or a patient whose breathing is affected by the presence of a large nasal deviation.
Finally, this branch of surgery is known for its methods of slowing the onset of the signs of aging.
It is therefore possible to perform procedures that rejuvenate the appearance of the face or tone up certain parts of the body:

• Eyelid surgery: this raises drooping eyelids to enlarge the eyes and give them a more youthful appearance.
  It can also significantly reduce bags under the eyes.
• Arm lift: The aim of this procedure is to tighten the skin around the arms, making them firmer and more toned.
• Facelift: The facelift dramatically reduces wrinkles and fights sagging skin, refreshing the appearance of the face.
