Scheduling an appointment is effortless at WHC Plastic Surgery. Simply contact our practice to arrange your consultation, or complete the booking form, and our team will reach out promptly to assist you with the next steps.
At WHC Plastic Surgery, every consultation begins with a thoughtful and comprehensive review of your medical and surgical history, followed by a personalised discussion to understand and define your aesthetic goals. From there, your surgeon will craft a bespoke treatment plan - a clear and meticulous roadmap designed to safely and artfully realise your desired result.
On the morning of your surgery, Dr Chen will review the surgical plan with you in detail before you enter the operating theatre, ensuring you feel fully informed and at ease. You will then meet our dedicated anaesthetic team, who are there to help you relax and ensure your comfort and safety throughout the procedure. Your surgery will then be performed with precision and care.
Before you leave the hospital, your follow-up appointment will be scheduled, and all necessary medication will be thoughtfully arranged to support your recovery.

What makes your eye look Youthful
The eyes are often one of the first areas of the face to show signs of ageing. You may notice that they look tired, heavy, sad or older than they feel. (Even when you are well-rested)
A youthful eye is not simply an eye without wrinkles. It is a result of balance between the upper eyelid, lower eyelid, brow position, skin quality, and the surrounding cheek support.
Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a procedure that aims to restore a fresher, more rested appearance by addressing excess skin, puffiness and changes around the eyelids.
What contributes to an Attractive Buttock shape
Beauty is subjective, and personal preferences vary widely between individuals, cultures, and trends. However, when evaluating buttock aesthetics from a surgical perspective, there are several principles that consistently contribute to a balanced and harmonious appearance.
The goal is rarely to create the largest possible buttocks. Instead, successful body contouring focuses on proportion, shape, symmetry, and how the buttocks relate to the rest of the body.
Breast Implants through the Years
Breast augmentation remains one of the most commonly performed cosmetic procedures worldwide. While many patients focus on implant size, far fewer realise how significantly breast implant technology has evolved over the decades.
Modern breast implants are the result of more than sixty years of research, innovation, and refinement. Understanding how implants have changed over time can help patients appreciate why implant selection is about far more than simply choosing a size.
What is a BBL: Understanding Brazilian Butt Lift Surgery
The Brazilian Butt Lift, commonly referred to as a “BBL,” has become one of the most widely discussed body contouring procedures in aesthetic surgery.
Despite the popularity of the term, there is often confusion about what the procedure actually involves, what creates aesthetically balanced results, and why careful surgical planning is essential.
A successful BBL is not simply about creating larger buttocks. It is about proportion, contour, skin quality, and harmony with the rest of the body.
