About Mr Simon Eccles

Mr Simon Eccles is a Consultant Plastic and Craniofacial Surgeon based in London, distinguished by his dual qualification in both dentistry and medicine. This unique background provided a foundation for his expertise in complex head, neck and facial reconstruction. After earning his dental degree from The Royal London Hospital in 1985, he later qualified as a doctor from Charing Cross and Westminster Medical School. He was awarded the McGregor Medal by the Royal College of Surgeons for his performance in the FRCS (Plast) examination.

Throughout his career, Mr Eccles has held several leadership roles, including serving as the Head of Professional Standards for the British Association of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons (BAPRAS). He is currently a member of the craniofacial team at Great Ormond Street Hospital, where he manages complex congenital conditions in children. He also works with the charity Facing the World and has completed more than 12 missions to Vietnam, where he has helped train local plastic surgeons and provide surgical treatment for children. His approach considers the wider medical needs of each patient, and he also contributes to the teaching and training of future plastic surgeons.

An extremely caring and professional service

I met Mr Eccles 6 months ago to discuss lower face and neck lift surgery. Prior to this meeting I was nervous and concerned; ‘Was I making the right decision to alter my appearance at all?’ I need not to have worried in the slightest. From the first meeting I found Mr Eccles to be a consummate professional with a reassuringly gentle manner. Mr Eccles listened carefully and explained what results I could expect post surgery. Prior to this meeting I had read Mr Eccles’ biog and discovered his world class status as a renowned plastic surgeon so felt I would be in extremely safe hands. This coupled with his caring, confident and kind manner allowed me to make an informed, and in the end, easy decision to go ahead with surgery. Now post surgery I would like to ‘More than Highly Recommend’ Mr Simon Eccles as a plastic surgeon; for his incredible skill, care and professional support team he has chosen to work with. All made my experience easy and anxiety free. To say ‘I am delighted with the results of his surgery’ is nothing more than an understatement. I have quite honestly been ‘over the moon’ with my lower face and neck lift surgery and if you, like me are anxious about going ahead with a similar operation, I hope this review will reassure you that choosing Mr Eccles as your surgeon would be an easy choice to make.
