Why Are We Different?

What sets our practice apart is the unique lens of Dr Yunaev. As a Specialist Breast & General Surgeon, Dr Yunaev views every procedure through functional assessment and disease-process perspective and not purely aesthetics and appearance. This specialist background ensures a rigorous focus on surgical integrity and health, underpinning our philosophy to prioritise functional outcomes and your overall wellbeing.

We believe that surgery should first and foremost improve your daily quality of life, physical comfort, and long-term health, with aesthetic refinements as a natural component of restorative care.

We are committed to a multidisciplinary approach, offering unhurried consultations and honest, individualised care. Few surgeons take the time that Dr Yunaev takes with patients to ensure a positive experience and outcome.

This personalised approach is not only designed to achieve results but to ensure a positive and comfortable experience along the way. With a passion for oncoplastic techniques, breast reconstruction, and functional aesthetic surgery, Dr Yunaev uses his in-depth understanding of breast disease to drive positive life changes. Whether travelling great distances for his expertise or seeking local care, patients can be assured they are in truly safe and skilled hands at the Breast & Body Clinic.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is functional surgery and why is it different?

Functional surgery focuses on restoring or improving the physical function, comfort, and health of the body, with a cosmetic component that ensures a natural and aesthetic outcome. Unlike standard cosmetic approaches, functional surgery at our clinic is led by a Specialist Breast and General Surgeon. This means we prioritise your long-term health and surgical integrity first, using a pathology informed lens to ensure that your surgical journey supports your daily quality of life and physical comfort. In other words we address the underlying medical and functional concerns that others often miss, whilst maximising the aesthetic outcome for our patients.

What does a multidisciplinary approach mean for my care?

It means your treatment plan is not developed in isolation. We collaborate with a network of specialists—including radiologists, pathologists, and oncologists where necessary—to ensure your surgical care is comprehensive, safe, and aligned with your broader health needs.

How does Dr Yunaev’s oncology background benefit me as a cosmetic surgery patient?

Dr Yunaev’s expertise in breast cancer and reconstruction provides a unique, highly detailed understanding of breast anatomy and tissue health. This clinical foundation allows him to view cosmetic enhancements through a lens of safety and structural integrity, ensuring that surgical decisions are made with the highest standard of anatomical precision as well as bringing across complex reconstructive skills into the world of cosmetic surgery, enhancing the outcomes for our patients.
