Dr Scott J Turner is a Specialist Plastic Surgeon whose practice is dedicated exclusively to facial aesthetic surgery. Operating from his Bondi Junction clinic in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs, Dr Turner has spent over a decade in private practice focused on the face — with particular depth of experience in advanced facelift techniques, rhinoplasty, and eyelid surgery.
A Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons and member of the Australasian Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons, Dr Turner’s surgical approach centres on working with each patient’s individual anatomy and facial proportions. Every procedure — whether a deep plane facelift, neck lift, or blepharoplasty — is planned around the specific structures, goals, and realistic expectations discussed during consultation.
Patients from across Sydney, interstate, and internationally attend FacePlus Aesthetics for consultations and procedures.
Face procedures
Facelift
Addresses age-related changes to the midface, lower face, and jawline through surgical repositioning of deeper facial structures.
Neck Lift
Targets platysmal banding, skin laxity, and jowling to improve definition along the jawline and neck.
Rhinoplasty
Reshapes the nose to improve proportion with the surrounding facial features. May also address functional breathing concerns.
Eyelid Surgery
Addresses excess skin, puffiness, or hooding around the upper and lower eyelids that can develop with ageing.
DEEP PLANE FACELIFT
FEATURED
The deep plane facelift is the procedure most frequently performed at FacePlus Aesthetics, and it sits at the core of Dr Turner’s practice. Where traditional facelift approaches rely primarily on skin repositioning and tension, the deep plane technique works beneath the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) to release and reposition the muscular and ligamentous structures as a single composite unit.
What does this mean in practical terms? Rather than pulling skin tighter which can create an operated appearance over time, the deep plane approach lifts tissues from their deeper attachments. This allows midface volume to be repositioned, the jawline to be refined, and the overall facial structure to be addressed at the level where ageing actually occurs. Dr Turner tailors every deep plane facelift to the patient’s individual facial anatomy, which is assessed thoroughly during the initial consultation at his Bondi Junction clinic.
For patients considering alternatives, Dr Turner also performs the SMAS facelift, short scar facelift, and Vertical Restore facelift , a comprehensive approach combining multiple facial procedures. The most appropriate technique depends on your anatomy, degree of ageing, and what you want to achieve, which Dr Turner discusses in detail during consultation.
RHINOPLASTY
FEATURED
Rhinoplasty is one of the most technically demanding facial procedures, and it is a core part of Dr Turner’s practice at FacePlus Aesthetics. Whether the concern is a dorsal prominence, a wide or asymmetric nasal tip, breathing difficulty, or overall nasal proportion relative to the rest of the face — each rhinoplasty is planned individually based on the patient’s nasal anatomy and stated goals.
Dr Turner uses several rhinoplasty techniques depending on the clinical situation, including ultrasonic rhinoplasty for precise bone work with reduced tissue trauma, and tip rhinoplasty for patients whose concerns are limited to the nasal tip. For patients with breathing concerns alongside aesthetic goals, functional rhinoplasty or septoplasty may be incorporated into the surgical plan. The aim is always to work with the existing nasal character rather than impose a single template — preserving what is already balanced while addressing the specific concerns you raise during consultation.
