During eyelid surgery, Dr Norris makes careful incisions along the eyelid’s natural creases, allowing the removal or repositioning of excess skin and tissue.

Since the eyelid skin is particularly delicate, precision is key to maintaining the natural fold and shape of the eye. The recovery process is closely monitored, with follow-up care focused on supporting proper healing and reducing visible scarring over time.

To discuss a personalised procedure plan, please contact our team to schedule a consultation.

The fat cells removed during liposculpture are gone for good, but the results in the longer term typically depend on maintaining a stable body weight.

Any significant weight gain after surgery can still cause fat to develop in other areas. The procedure doesn’t stop future changes in body composition, it simply removes localised fat from specific areas.

If you’re thinking of undergoing liposculpture, please contact our team to schedule a consultation. You’ll be able to discuss what you may be able to expect from your results and how you can support them over time.

A lip lift using the bullhorn technique involves carefully removing a small strip of skin just beneath the base of the nose, which shortens the distance between the upper lip and the nose.

This subtle change brings more visibility to the upper lip. The incision is hidden within the contours beneath the nose, and once healed, it’s usually quite discreet. The approach focuses on defining the lip’s proportions rather than changing its structure dramatically.

To discuss your suitability for a lip lift, please contact our team to book a consultation with Dr Norris.

Blepharoplasty focuses on removing excess skin and sometimes small pockets of fat from the eyelids. Over time, the skin around the eyes can stretch, sometimes leading to hooded eyelids.

During surgery, fine incisions are placed within the natural folds of the upper eyelids or just below the lashes on the lower lids. The goal is typically to adjust the structure of the eyelid area so it sits more comfortably against the eye without restricting movement or function.

To book a blepharoplasty consultation with Dr Norris, please get in touch with our team.

Liposculpture is a precise form of fat removal designed to address specific areas of the body rather than achieve general weight loss.

It uses small cannulas to remove fat through minimal incisions, allowing for detailed shaping in areas like the arms, thighs, or abdomen. In some cases, Dr Norris may also remove excess skin as part of a combined procedure, such as an arm, thigh, or body lift, depending on what’s suitable for your body type and recovery goals.

Each treatment plan is individualised following a thorough assessment during consultation. To schedule your consultation, please contact our team.

Blepharoplasty generally doesn’t interfere with eyelash growth. The incisions are made just above or below the lash line, and they are carefully planned to avoid damaging hair follicles.

Some patients may notice mild irritation or swelling around the lashes during early recovery, but this typically resolves as the tissues settle. Once healed, eyelash growth continues as normal, and any temporary changes are rare and short-lived.

If you would like to learn more about the blepharoplasty procedure, please feel free to contact our team!

A brachioplasty, or arm lift, is performed to remove excess skin along the upper arms. It’s often considered by people who have lost significant weight or noticed skin laxity with age.

The procedure involves an incision along the inner arm, where excess skin and tissue are carefully removed. In some cases, liposuction is also used to target fat pockets. The main goal is to achieve results that align naturally with the rest of the body, following personalised procedure steps.

If you’re thinking of undergoing an arm lift, you are welcome to contact our team to schedule a consultation. You’ll be able to discuss what the procedure can achieve in more detail.

Form & Face founder Dr Ben Norris has been a dedicated volunteer with Interplast for 17 years, supporting surgical and rehabilitation initiatives across the Pacific.

With limited funding preventing the program from returning this year, Ben, together with fellow volunteers ​Associate Professor Damian Marucci and Norma Schwalger, took action and set out to fundraise with the hope of ​​enabling a surgical program this year. Their goal was $30,000, but thanks to the generosity of friends, colleagues, patients, and a local community club, they raised over $50,000.

Other recent initiatives supported by these efforts include:

- In Kiribati, his support assisted with establishing the first in-person prosthetics and orthotics mentoring workshop, where Australian mentors worked alongside local clinicians to strengthen their rehabilitation skills for people recovering after injury.

- In the Solomon Islands, his contribution supported a week-long clinical training workshop for nurses, building skills in areas such as patient assessment, sepsis detection, wound care, diabetes management, and mentoring junior staff.

- These programs focus on training and equipping local clinicians so that more patients can access care closer to home, supported by stronger local healthcare systems.

Six weeks after chin liposuction, early swelling has started to subside, though the tissues in the area are still healing. Even early in the recovery process, some changes can still be easily visible.

The procedure targets fat pockets beneath the chin and along the jawline using a small cannula. Every procedure is unique, as each procedure is closely tailored to the specific patient’s needs and goals.

If you’re considering having liposuction, you can arrange a consultation with Dr Norris to discuss if the procedure may suit your needs. Please contact our team at Form & Face to schedule your consultation.

Downtime after a facial fat transfer will naturally vary, but most patients can expect visible swelling and bruising for the first one to two weeks.

Some patients may be able to resume light daily activities within days after the procedure, but it’s usually advised to avoid strenuous exercise for a couple of weeks to allow the grafted fat to settle. Initial swelling may make the face look fuller than the final result, but this gradually subsides as healing progresses. The transferred fat continues to integrate over the months after surgery, so it’s normal for subtle changes to appear during this time. Your recovery plan will be tailored to your procedure and how your body responds.

For personalised guidance on recovery and timing, we recommend scheduling a consultation with Dr Norris at Form & Face.

Abdominoplasty procedure typically involves removing excess abdominal skin and tightening the underlying muscles, which can be weakened after weight changes or pregnancy. Recovery timelines vary, but most patients will gradually return to normal daily movement over the first month, while more strenuous activity normally needs to be delayed until later stages.

Results continue to show over the months after the procedure, as the abdominal tissues heal and swelling subsides.

If you’re considering this procedure, it’s important to understand the surgical process, the recovery involved, and how your individual health may affect healing.

Please contact our team at Form & Face to book a consultation with Dr Norris. Your consultation is an opportunity to decide if an abdominoplasty is suitable for you.

26/10/2025

Dr Norris performs lower face and neck lift procedures, which may be combined in some patients. These procedures are considered when there are concerns about changes in skin, tissue, or contour in the lower face and neck area.

During surgery, the approach may involve repositioning tissues and tightening underlying muscles to support the lower facial structure. This procedure is typically less extensive than a full facelift (rhytidectomy), but it still requires recovery time and post-operative care.

Bruising and swelling usually subside over the first few weeks, and tissues continue to heal over the following months. Planning this type of procedure involves assessing skin quality, facial structure, and any contributing neck changes.

To discuss whether a mini facelift or combined lower face and neck lift is appropriate for you, please contact our team at Form & Face to arrange a consultation with Dr Norris.
