He is one of very few surgeons in Scotland to have specifically trained in cosmetic surgery to a higher level following the completion of plastic surgery training. To hone his expertise in cosmetic surgery, he has travelled the world to work with globally renowned surgeons. In Holland, he worked with Jeroen Stevens focussing on the artistry of the subSMAS, MACS lifts and facial liposculpture; in Vienna with International surgeons Heike Klepetko and rhinoplasty surgeon Jacques Van der Meulen at the Radetzky Villa as well as Professor Artur Worseg, Vienna’s Celebrity Plastic Surgery Doc, learning VASER and cosmetic breast surgery. In New Zealand, he worked at the National Burn Centre reconstructing patients from across the Southern hemisphere with massive burns and scars. Upon his return to the UK, he took up a position as a Locum Consultant Plastic Surgeon at Wythenshawe hospital and Manchester Children’s Hospital before returning to Aberdeen with his young family.
