Mr Darryl Coombes
Mr Coombes is a consultant surgeon who works solely on the face, head and neck, and he carries out every surgical procedure offered by The Beauty Aesthetics Group. He qualified in both dentistry and medicine at King's College London, trained in oral and maxillofacial surgery at major NHS centres including Queen Victoria Hospital, East Grinstead, and spent ten years as a consultant there before dedicating his time to private practice, with a particular interest in aesthetic facial surgery.
He developed the Apex Facelift®, still carries out facial skin cancer surgery for the NHS in Sussex and Kent, and lectures and trains other surgeons in rhinoplasty and head and neck skin cancer.
You will meet him at your private consultation, where he will examine you, listen to what you would like to change and explain honestly what surgery can and cannot achieve. In surgery, he is assisted by Tanisha, a student nurse and founder of the Group.
