Rhinoplasty is surgery that changes the shape, size, structure, or function of the nose. It may help people who have breathing difficulty, nasal deformity after injury, a congenital difference present from birth, or concerns about facial balance.
Tonsillectomy is an operation to remove the tonsils, two pads of immune tissue at the back of the throat. It may help children or adults who have repeated tonsil infections, breathing problems caused by enlarged tonsils, or certain tonsil abnormalities.
Septoplasty is an operation that straightens a deviated nasal septum, the wall of bone and cartilage separating the two sides of the nose. It may help people who have persistent nasal blockage, disturbed sleep, repeated sinus problems or difficulty breathing through one or both nostrils.
Hemithyroidectomy is surgery to remove one lobe, or half, of the thyroid gland, usually along with the small central bridge called the isthmus. It may help people with a suspicious thyroid nodule, a localised thyroid cancer, an overactive nodule, or a large swelling causing pressure symptoms.
Thyroidectomy is surgery to remove part or all of the thyroid gland, a butterfly-shaped gland in the neck that produces hormones controlling metabolism. It may help people with thyroid cancer, suspicious nodules, an enlarged thyroid or an overactive thyroid that cannot be managed adequately with other treatments.
Punch excision is a minor surgical procedure used mainly to improve deep, narrow acne scars and selected small skin lesions. A dermatologist removes the affected tissue with a small circular instrument, after which the opening is closed or allowed to heal in a controlled way.
Subcision is a minimally invasive treatment used mainly for depressed scars that are tethered to deeper tissue. A dermatologist inserts a fine needle or specialised instrument beneath the skin to release the fibrous bands pulling the scar downward, allowing the surface to lift and remodel.
A skin biopsy is a diagnostic procedure in which a dermatologist removes a small sample of skin for examination under a microscope. It helps identify skin cancer, inflammatory disorders, infections and other conditions that cannot be confirmed through physical examination alone.
Electrosurgery uses controlled, high-frequency electrical energy to cut tissue, seal blood vessels, or destroy abnormal tissue. It may support minor outpatient procedures as well as complex operations in specialties such as general surgery, dermatology, gynaecology, urology, gastroenterology, and cancer care.
Mohs micrographic surgery is a specialised technique for removing certain skin cancers one thin layer at a time. Each layer is examined under a microscope during the procedure, helping the surgeon remove cancerous cells while preserving as much healthy skin as possible.
