The 14 Best Plastic Surgeons in Dubai

Plastic surgery in Dubai is offered by individual consultants who operate in private hospitals such as CosmeSurge, Medcare or King's College Hospital, and by dedicated clinics with several surgeons. Most surgeons concentrate on a few areas, typically the breast, body contouring or the face, so matching the surgeon to the procedure matters more than the size of the clinic.

We checked each surgeon or clinic on its own website and noted training, board certification, main procedures and where they operate. Use the list to shortlist surgeons whose experience fits the operation you are considering, then compare them in consultation.

How to choose Plastic Surgeons in Dubai

  1. Verify training and licenceLook for specialist certification in plastic surgery, such as FRCS Plast, European Board or national board titles, and check the surgeon's licence with the relevant Dubai health authority.
  2. Match the surgeon to the procedureMany surgeons focus on the breast, body contouring or facial surgery. Ask how often they perform your specific operation and to see before-and-after photos of similar cases.
  3. Ask where the operation takes placeFind out whether surgery is done in a hospital or an accredited day-surgery facility, who gives the anaesthetic and whether an overnight stay is possible.
  4. Plan aftercare and recoveryAsk who you contact after surgery, how many follow-up visits are included and how long before you can work, fly or exercise again.

Frequently asked questions

How much does plastic surgery cost in Dubai?

Prices vary considerably by procedure, surgeon and hospital. The total usually combines the surgeon's fee, anaesthesia, hospital or theatre charges, implants where used, compression garments and follow-up visits. Ask for a written all-inclusive quote after the consultation and check what happens if a revision is needed. Cosmetic procedures are rarely covered by health insurance.

How long should I stay in Dubai after surgery?

It depends on the operation. Surgeons usually want to see patients for early check-ups and to remove dressings or stitches, and many advise against flying for a period after major procedures. Ask your surgeon for a written recovery timeline before booking travel.

What should I bring to the consultation?

Bring your ID, a list of medicines and medical conditions, details of any previous surgery and photos that show the result you hope for. Prepare questions about the technique, risks, recovery time and where the operation will be performed.
