About

Dr. Vakis Kontoes stands at the forefront of plastic, reconstructive, aesthetic, and laser surgery, pioneering groundbreaking techniques that have reshaped the field. In 1995, he achieved a milestone by performing Greece's first-ever full-face resurfacing for wrinkles and age spots, marking a turning point in cosmetic surgery.

Renowned for innovation, Dr. Kontoes revolutionized Laser Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) with his Single Suture Traction Technique (SSTT), setting new standards for precision and effectiveness.

Though based primarily in Greece, Dr. Kontoes frequently travels to Cocoona, Dubai, providing consultations and transformative surgeries for patients from the UAE and beyond.

Globally esteemed among plastic surgeons, Dr. Kontoes is hailed as one of the foremost authorities in the field, revered for his expertise and pioneering spirit.
