Surgery by referral, with the surgeons of Caolín.
23MD does not perform surgery in-house. When surgery is the right answer, we refer to the plastic surgeons of Caolín, a plastic surgery clinic in Copenhagen, led by Dr Frederik Koelle, our Lead Plastic Surgeon. Surgical consultations take place at 23MD Dubai.
Surgical consultations at 23MD Dubai · Surgery at a licensed Dubai hospital · Minimum two consultations before any procedure
Two clinics, one considered approach.
Both clinics favour restraint and natural-looking results. 23MD leads on non-surgical medicine; Caolín's surgeons lead when surgery is needed.
