DR. EDDIE MOLLER

Dr. Eddie Moller is a Specialist Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon with almost 32 years’ experience in the field.

He qualified as a medical doctor at the University of Pretoria. During his studies, he developed a special interest in surgery; in particular, the surgical ability to restore and alter the human body – whether to improve its functioning or appearance.

Dr. Moller obtained his specialist degree as a plastic and reconstructive surgeon in 1991 and set up his private practice in 1992 the following year. Dr Moller is an active member of APRASSA (The Association of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons of Southern Africa) is. His specific surgical interests are Breast surgery, Abdominoplasty, Facial Rejuvenation, Eyelid surgery, Liposuction, Otoplasty in children, Rhinoplasty, and CA treatments.

Dr. Moller will, however, only undertake a new procedure once he is convinced of its safety and efficacy, insisting that his patients always receive the best verifiable benefits from surgery.

“As a plastic and reconstructive surgeon, my goal is to attain a harmonious balance between aesthetics and function. I am guided by two chief concerns: achieving natural results and at the same time putting the patient’s safety first. I prioritise the consultation, discussing the various surgical and non-surgical techniques available. I aspire to have a clear understanding of the patient’s needs and expectations, always encouraging realistic goals.

Even cosmetic surgery is based on reconstructive principles and no reconstructive surgery is done without trying to improve the aesthetic appearance. So as a plastic surgeon, I am trained in and use aspects of cosmetic and reconstructive surgery in every case.
