What also stood out was the warmth of his entire team

5 50 Medical Aesthetics Specialist Consultation

My experience with Dr Dower and his team has been exceptional from start to finish.

Dr Dower is calm, concise, and highly reassuring in the way he explains his procedures. He gives clear, honest feedback and truly believes that less is more — a philosophy I deeply appreciate. His approach is all about harmony, balance, and natural-looking results, which immediately inspired confidence in me.

He also has an excellent bedside manner: professional, attentive, and genuinely caring. I always felt I was in safe, experienced hands.

What also stood out was the warmth of his entire team. His staff — including the secretaries, beauticians, and nurses — are all incredibly friendly, kind, and supportive. They create a very personal, comforting experience, which makes such a difference during a surgical journey.

Now, at two weeks post-op, I can already see the healing progressing beautifully and the results beginning to show exactly as Dr Dower explained they would. That reassurance and accuracy have meant a lot to me.

The accommodation arranged was also excellent, which made the whole experience even smoother and more comfortable.

Honestly, I would recommend Dr Dower to my closest friends without hesitation.
A truly professional, tasteful, and caring experience.
Thank you to everyone !!

I am truly grateful

4.5 50 Medical Aesthetics Specialist Consultation • Paid: R18000

The highest quality and attention to the client. Stellendal Spa makes you feel special and the care and attention for all my appointments was exceptional. Thanks to Anneke and all the wonderful staff at Stellendal. My time spent at Stellendal accommodations for my surgical healing and spa services were very special. The care to attention and detail is a top-notch experience. I have to thank Cindy for all the PDT/LED light therapy treatments to help in my healing from facial surgery as well all my follow-up appointments with Dr. Dower were of the upmost care and attention to my healing and best results. I am truly grateful.

Dr Dower and his staff were very professional on our first consultation. Dr Dower was very sensitive, understanding of my daughter's questions, concerns and gave immediate answers. I trust him with my daughter's future confidence and well being.

Pefore I could think what I needed to do next, it was done for me

5 50 Facelift

I really wanted to look younger in a natural way. It took me a while to make the decision to have a facelift but in Dr. Dower's hands, I got the result I could have only dreamt of. I look myself, just 20 years younger. It has given me a renewed energy and excitement for life. He is a brilliant surgeon and I really recommend him to any woman who wants to turn back the clock without looking like you've been operated on.

Very professional - before I could think what I needed to do next, it was done for me. Lots of good preparation and helped me to feel relaxed and know I would be well taken care of. The nursing staff were extremely kind and supportive.
