Mr Will Holmes

I have over 16 years’ experience in plastic and cosmetic surgery and trained in some of the best units in the country including Bristol and Chelmsford. I am a full-time consultant plastic surgeon working at Pinderfields Hospital, Wakefield. I perform all aspects of plastic surgery with a specialist interest in breast reconstruction and skin cancer treatment. I have a busty cosmetic practise that specialises in breast surgery, eyelid rejuvenation and facelifts For facelifts, I offer a variey of techniques depending on your desired outcome for surgeyr and prefernecoe for downtime.  I also offer the R-breast reduction technique to improve projection and maintain better long-term shape than the conventional breast reduction techniques. I do not offer rhinoplasty surgery. I have recently moved from a standard abdominoplasty to an “enhanced muscle repair abdominoplasty” that concentrates particularly on retightening the muscles of the tummy wall, resulting in a better shape and defined hourglass contour. This is particularly advantageous for women seeking to maximise their outcome following childbirth or previous abdominal surgery. I am fully trained in advanced anti-wrinkle treatment and fillers treatment and this forms an important part of my recommended maintenance programme following facial rejuvenation surgery. For patients who are desiring more permanent results, I can recommend an alternative filler process which uses fat and is known as the Coleman fat transfer. I have extensive experience with this procedure and it can also be used to successfully fine-tune any aesthetic breast surgery. Much of my job has concentrated on complications relating to scars. We have a range of options to treat unsightly, symptomatic, or obvious scarring and I am happy to advise and offer surgical scar revision when indicated. I also use anti-wrinkle treatment as an effective treatment for excessive sweating in the armpits or face. There is no standard approach to breast augmentation surgery and I aim to educate my patients so they fully understand their best and safest options. While there are many places that offer breast augmentation surgery both in and outside the UK, unsatisfactory outcomes are not uncommon for those who have travelled abroad, and unfortunately they often require expensive revisional surgery or, in some instances, urgent emergency care in my NHS practise. My NHS practice is built on complex breast reconstruction and this has given me extensive experience with all types of breasts implants and their advantages. I will confidently offer you the most bespoke option to achieve your best result. I don’t routinely use drains in my patients and follow the latest enhanced recovery methods to minimise your time in hospital and your post-surgery downtime. I proudly offer the state-of the-art water-assisted body-jet liposuction technique that has revolutionised my approach to body contouring and abdominoplasty. It reduces post-operative swelling, downtime and offers better results. My training has always put patient safety first. I believe that for surgery to be successful it must be built on a strong bond of trust and respect between myself and my patients. The consultation is the first important step in that process and this is where I will use my experience and insight to educate the individual patient on the best treatment plan. All cosmetic surgery should aim to achieve natural, smooth, healthy results, and avoid the commonly seen celebrity extremes. If ultimately, I can't offer you what you need, I can direct you to an experienced doctor from my network of experts who will assist you. I am proud to offer my services at Spire Methley Park as it provides the gold-standard in patient experience and aftercare, in a safe and caring environment.  Please see my website for more information on all the procedures. It provides useful information on the consultation appointment and your whole surgical journey, including recovery. Most importantly it gives links to my feedback page from patients.
