Asian Plastic Surgery Procedures Performed at Our Sydney Clinics

Asian Double Eyelid Surgery

Surgical modification of the upper eyelid to address the epicanthal fold or create a visible crease. Dr. Barnouti applies precise incisional or non-incisional suturing techniques focused on structural modification while preserving the patient’s baseline ethnic anatomy.

Asian Face & Brow Lift

Targeted surgical elevation of the mid-to-lower face and brow region. This procedure addresses tissue laxity and structural ptosis (sagging) by repositioning the underlying SMAS layer and skin, utilizing techniques specifically adapted for the thickness and characteristics of Asian facial tissue.

Asian Facial Implants

Structural augmentation of the facial skeleton using medical-grade implants. Common applications include targeted chin and cheek augmentation to alter projection and facial balance, utilizing customized implant dimensions suited to Asian skeletal proportions.

Asian Liposuction

Surgical removal of localized subcutaneous fat deposits. This contouring procedure employs specialized suction cannulas to selectively extract adipose tissue from areas such as the abdomen, flanks, or jawline, carefully tailored to specific anatomical fat distribution patterns.

Mandatory Surgical Warning

Surgical Warning: Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner. Please read our Risks and Complications of Plastic Surgery page.

GP Referral & Assessment Requirements

In accordance with the latest April 2026 AHPRA and Medical Board of Australia regulations, all patients seeking a consultation for cosmetic surgery must obtain a referral from their General Practitioner (GP). This ensures your medical history is reviewed by an independent doctor who can discuss your motivations and goals before you meet with a specialist.

A mandatory seven-day cooling-off period applies after your initial consultation before surgery can be booked. Patients are also encouraged to seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner before proceeding. These requirements exist to protect patients and to ensure every decision is fully informed and free of pressure.
