Dr Moss is a fully trained Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon, a Fellow of The Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (FRACS) and a Member of the Australian Society of Plastic Surgeons. Only qualified and recognised surgeons have these credentials. Dr Moss has been involved in the field of plastic surgery since 1989 in clinical practice and research, and has wide experience and expertise in the most up to date techniques of cosmetic plastic surgery. Dr Moss specialises in the group of cosmetic and reconstructive procedures referred to colloquially as Cosmetic Plastic Surgery. Dr Moss is a national trainer for both Allergan (manufacturer of Botox, Juvederm and Voluma) and QMed (manufacturer of Restylane, Perlane and SubQ) who are respectively the largest manufacturers of cosmetic anti-wrinkle and dermal filler injection products in the world. Dr Moss is also on the Medical Advisory Board for Allergan (manufacturer of Botox, Juvederm and Voluma). PHILOSOPHY A personal word from Dr Moss (MBBS, Dip. Anat., FRACS)Since cosmetic plastic surgery is often elective, it is essential that techniques should be safe and predictable, so no patient is ever placed under any unnecessary risk. Cosmetic plastic surgery must improve and rejuvenate without leaving an unnatural or operated appearance. It is vital that a surgeon fully explains their personal aesthetic aims and therefore the expected result in their hands. Personally, I believe in a classic, natural and soft beauty. Changes must often be subtle - yet never pulled, tight, artificial or imbalanced. Patients want to look better but never like a different person. This can only be achieved when the surgeon truly takes the time and effort to understand each individual patient and their requirements. Sound surgical judgement, meticulous surgery and state of the art techniques are vital for the best possible result. Consultations, explanations and closely supervised aftercare must be performed by the surgeon. PROFESSIONAL MEMBERSHIPS
