A Personal Statement from Prof. Dr Alexandre

Throughout my career I have been committed to my ancestors’ wisdom – “Metron Ariston” – striving to find the golden mean in all cases, to avoid extremities. My long-term experience has highlighted that it is outstanding education and training that is required, along with sound expertise, in order to be able to deliver aesthetically optimal, safe and long-lasting results.

I encourage you to contact me for any issue that might concern you. Of course, the best way to determine which solutions may meet your specific needs is a personal consultation in my office. I look forward to meeting you.

Prof. Dr Alexandre
