Cosmetic surgery can enhance or rejuvenate specific areas of the face and body while respecting each patient’s natural features. Dr Irsigler carefully considers your goals, physical characteristics and expectations before recommending an appropriate procedure. Every option is discussed during the consultation so that you understand what the surgery involves, the anticipated recovery and the results that can realistically be achieved.
Blepharoplasty addresses excess eyelid skin and, where necessary, underlying fat that may create heaviness, bulging or impaired vision. The procedure commonly involves removing excess skin from the upper eyelids and may also include fat removal or treatment of the lower eyelids. The surgical approach is tailored to the patient’s needs, with the aim of creating a more open, refreshed and natural-looking appearance.
Otoplasty corrects prominent ears and other differences in ear shape that may cause self-consciousness or discomfort. The procedure generally uses an incision behind the ear, allowing the cartilage to be carefully reshaped and the ear repositioned closer to the head. Treatment may be considered from around six years of age and is planned according to the patient’s individual anatomy and the extent of correction required.
Breast surgery may be considered to increase or reduce volume, improve breast position or combine these outcomes. Available procedures include breast augmentation, breast reduction and breast lift, with or without implants. The recommended approach considers the patient’s frame, breast shape and volume, skin quality, lifestyle and personal goals. Each procedure is individually planned to achieve an appropriate, proportionate and natural-looking result.
Abdominoplasty addresses loose lower-abdominal skin and separation of the abdominal muscles, which may occur following pregnancy or significant weight changes. The procedure removes excess skin and tightens the central abdominal area, with the incision positioned low on the abdomen where possible. Liposuction may be performed separately or combined with surgery to remove selected areas of excess fat and improve the overall body contour.
my skin also has changed remarkably for the better
Mrs A du Plooy – Blepharoplasty
In 2018 after nearly failing my driver’s license renewal and shortly after that nearly had an accident while driving because of drooping eyelids impairing my vision to the side, I finally decided to have blepharoplasty done. Luckily for me Dr Nils Irsigler just started his practice at the Zuid Afrikaans Hospital and it was convenient for me.
I made an appointment, consulted with him. During the consultation he was very professional, took photos of my eyes which was then uploaded on his computer. Dr Irsigler then explained the procedure in detail with me, showed me exactly what he planned on doing, what he expected my result to be. My operation was booked two weeks later. Before that he again went through the procedure with me. The day of the procedure he made me feel comfortable and I had trust in him to make a success of the operation. And it was a success. He literally opened my eyes for me. I never liked looking at photos of myself, my eyes were always slits when I laughed.
After the procedures for the first time I felt comfortable laughing again, having a photo taken. I was followed up regularly after my operation until my eyes have healed completely. I have the greatest respect for Dr Irsigler and the work he has done, it looks natural and has changed my life. Of course he also has the help of a professional team in his office, always friendly and willing to help.
With treatment and recommendations I have received from them my appearance and my skin also has changed remarkably for the better. I can never say thank you enough for what they all did for me.
