Facial Surgery Before & After Photos — Vancouver, BC

Yes. Every case shown in this gallery features real 8 West Clinic patients whose procedures were performed by Dr. Thomas Buonassisi. Photos are published only with the patient’s written consent.

Timing varies by procedure and patient. Some photos are taken a few months after surgery, while others are taken after a longer healing period. When available, each case notes the time since surgery.

No gallery can guarantee or predict your personal result. Outcomes vary based on anatomy, skin quality, healing, age, procedure type, and surgical goals. These photos are intended to show examples of published patient outcomes.

Facial aging often affects more than one area at the same time. For example, a patient may combine facelift and neck lift surgery to address the lower face and neck together, or add a chin implant to improve facial balance.

Results can be long lasting, but the face continues to age naturally over time. Longevity depends on the procedure, skin quality, lifestyle, genetics, and the patient’s healing process.

Each patient begins with different anatomy and has different goals. Some patients want a noticeable change, while others prefer a very natural refinement. Subtle results can still represent a meaningful improvement for that patient.

Start by looking for patients with similar facial features, age range, concerns, and procedure combinations. During consultation, Dr. Buonassisi can help explain which examples may be most relevant to your anatomy and goals.

Yes. Bringing photos can be helpful for explaining what you like, what you want to avoid, and what feels natural to you. They are used as a communication tool, not as a promise of an identical result.

The first step is to complete a pre-assessment or book a consultation with 8 West Clinic. From there, the team can review your concerns, goals, photos, and suitability for facial surgery.
