Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery

Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery in Dubai

Plastic and reconstructive surgery covers procedures that reshape or restore the face and body, planned and overseen by specialist surgeons. At Shookra it is a consultation-led practice: physician-led, DHA-licensed, in Business Bay. We start with assessment and planning — understanding your goals and what is realistic — rather than a menu of procedures.

Plastic and reconstructive surgery at Shookra is led by Dr. Fernando Andrés Cabrera, a DHA-licensed consultant plastic surgeon — every procedure begins with a consultation to understand your goals and assess what’s right for you.

How it works

Assessment first, then a plan.

Surgery is a decision, not a purchase, and it should follow an honest assessment. A specialist looks at what you want to change, examines the anatomy behind it, and tells you plainly what surgery can and cannot do for your case.

  1. 01

    Assess

    A consultant surgeon examines the concern and the anatomy behind it, and asks what you actually want to change.

  2. 02

    Plan

    You leave with a clear picture of the routes available — surgical and, where relevant, non-surgical — and what each one involves.

  3. 03

    Decide

    There is no pressure to decide in the room. Where surgery is not the right answer, we will say so.

Procedures we assess and plan.

Each opens a page that explains the procedure and where a consultation begins.

The frame

The consultation is the procedure that matters most.

The difference between a good outcome and a regretted one is usually decided before any operation — in whether the plan was honest and matched to the person. That is why we lead with assessment.

Many concerns that bring people to a surgical page turn out to have a non-surgical route, or none at all. We would rather measure and advise than sell.

Questions

Good to know.

Do I need a consultation first?
Yes. Every procedure here begins with a specialist consultation that assesses your goals, your anatomy and your suitability, and sets out the routes available. Nothing is scheduled before that.
Is surgery always the answer?
No. Part of the assessment is deciding whether surgery is the right route at all — for some concerns a non-surgical option fits better, and for some the honest answer is to do nothing. We will tell you plainly.
Are you DHA-licensed?
Yes. Shookra is a DHA-licensed clinic in Business Bay, Dubai, and every consultation is physician-led.
How much do procedures cost?
It depends on your assessment and the plan that suits you, so pricing is shared in the consultation rather than published. Message us on WhatsApp and the team will talk you through options and help you arrange one.
