Choosing the right procedure for your aesthetic goals
26 May 2023
By plastic surgeon Dr Dirk Kremer.
At Harley Street Aesthetics, I understand that each patient visits me with unique aesthetic goals.
Whether you're looking to enhance your facial features, improve your body shape, or reverse the signs of aging, I offer a wide range of cosmetic procedures to help you achieve your desired look.
But with so many options available, it can be difficult to know which procedure is right for you.
In this article, I'll explore how to choose the right procedure for your aesthetic goals.
Assessing your aesthetic goals
The first step in choosing the right procedure for you is to assess the aesthetic goals you are looking and hoping for.
Ask yourself what you'd like to achieve and consider which areas of your body you're hoping to improve.
Are you looking to enhance your facial features, such as your nose, lips, or chin? Or do you want to improve the appearance of your body, such as by reducing excess fat, tightening loose skin, or enhancing your curves?
It's important to have realistic expectations when it comes to cosmetic procedures.
Remember that no procedure can guarantee perfection, and that every person's body is different.
Discuss your goals with your plastic surgeon to get a better idea of what can be achieved, and to determine which procedure is right for you to achieve those specific goals.
Common cosmetic procedures
At Harley Street Aesthetics in London, I offer a wide range of cosmetic procedures, including a range of signature procedures, to help you achieve your desired look.
Here are some of the most popular procedures I offer:
Liposuction:Liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes excess fat from specific areas of the body, such as the abdomen, thighs, or buttocks.
Breast augmentation:Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that increases the size and improves the shape of the breasts.
Facelift: A facelift is a surgical procedure that tightens and lifts the skin of the face and neck, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and sagging skin.
Rhinoplasty: Also known as a "nose job," rhinoplasty is a surgical procedure that reshapes the nose to improve its appearance and/or function.
Combining procedures
While each of these procedures can be effective on their own, combining procedures can often achieve more comprehensive and long-lasting results.
Combining procedures can also reduce the amount of downtime and recovery time needed for each individual procedure.
For example, a "Mummy Makeover" is a combination of procedures designed to address the physical changes that occur after pregnancy and childbirth. This may include a breast lift, tummy tuck, and liposuction.
Another common combination is a facelift with eyelid surgery, which can provide a more youthful and refreshed appearance to the entire face.

Choosing the right surgeon
Choosing the right surgeon is just as important as choosing the right procedure.
Look for a board-certified surgeon with experience in the specific procedure you're interested in.
Make sure you feel comfortable with the surgeon and their staff, and that they take the time to listen to your concerns and answer your questions.
For example, here at Harley Street Aesthetics I am a board-certified cosmetic plastic surgeon with over 20 years of global experience in performing a wide range of plastic and cosmetic surgery.
Choosing the right procedure for your aesthetic goals requires careful consideration and discussion with your surgeon. Assess your aesthetic goals and discuss them with your surgeon to determine the best procedure for you. Remember that combining procedures can often lead to more dramatic results and can be a great option for those with multiple concerns.
