Plastic Surgeon Cape Town, South Africa
I am a South African plastic surgeon whose private practice is largely dedicated to cosmetic surgical procedures – including breast augmentation (breast enlargement, implant surgery, reductions and lifts), labiaplasty, preservation rhinoplasty and more.
My professional experience of over 25+ years, medical knowledge and surgical skills have established me as an expert in my field of cosmetic surgery specializing in scarless preservation rhinoplasty (nose-jobs done without external scars), all aspects of cosmetic and reconstructive breast surgery and labiaplasty ( cosmetic female genital surgery) to name but a few I am known to have a warm and caring approach, provide honest assessments and accompany my patients throughout their surgical journey. I operate in world class facilities from the newly built Netcare Christiaan Barnard Memorial Hospital, situated on the Foreshore of the beautiful city of Cape Town.

I got a very good experience in south Africa meeting different people from South Africa and Zimbabwe, Nigeria and also all the Doctors that are got in contact with are very nice Doctors.and the plastic surgery I can still feeling pain in my breast.Posted on Karmen van RensburgTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Superb surgeon, lovely bedside manner – takes his time, really listens to his patients.Posted on Tamara CavernelisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Meticulous, precise, professional and consistent. This is how I would describe Dr Paul Skoll and his approach to his vocation. Dr Skoll was the third surgeon I consulted in lieu of my breast revision surgery and I suppose 3rd time’s a charm - a very fortunate and successful one. After having breastfed my two children for a combined total of 26 months, in addition to having had breast augmentation in my 20’s, as a now 43 year old woman, breast revision surgery was necessary, not just for aesthetics, but to replace the existing silicone. I am (proudly) South African and I live abroad, in Europe. I attended two consultations, with two different surgeons, where I live and I could have had the surgery with either one of them, but my feeling, based on email correspondence with Dr Skoll was an avenue that I further wanted to pursue. In addition, South Africa has an incredible medical industry, which I trust implicitly - having lived in cities like Vienna, London and Frankfurt. Firstly Dr Skoll is very personable, his response rate is immediate and his professional conduct leaves one reassured that you will be in capable medical hands - literally and physically. He does not pawn you off to staff - HE is the first point of contact and available to you when you need him. Dr Skoll is first and foremost a medical professional and he has an impeccable bedside manner. It is evident by his professional demeanour that he is not in this profession for its perceived glamour - he genuinely cares about his patients, getting the best results for the individual and advising his patients on a responsible medical perspective and not one which is driven by upselling - even if the patient tries to sneak in unnecessary procedures; Dr Skoll offers responsible and reasonable advice regarding unnecessary excess. He comes across as someone who studied medicine, because he genuinely wants to help people - evidently based on his work performing children’s cleft palate surgeries to underprivileged families. 8 Days after my surgery and after diligently following his exact instructions along with ample rest, I was bikini-ready and felt great. My recovery has been an incredible, almost unbelievably smooth journey. My skin is prone to keloid, but the precise incisions, which was meticulously and seamlessly merged with the first ones of 20 years ago, have been so skilfully crafted by this magician. It’s been 5 weeks and I am incredibly pleased with the results. To be honest, I was already happy the day of surgery and when leaving the clinic. His support team also deserves a shoutout. Vanessa, his lovely assistant and his amazing anaesthetists, Drs Kriel and Van Zyl, who made me feel even more comfortable and reassured, are absolute gems. In conclusion, I would highly and 110% recommend Dr Paul Skoll. If not just for his skilful talents, but because he is a truly responsible medical professional in a world where integrity is often compromised for instant gratification. He stands out as a fine example of medicine being practised ethically and responsibly.Posted on aviwe ndlebeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After my bilateral mastectomy, I had breast reconstruction done by Dr. Skoll, and I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible work he has done. Breasts are everything to a woman, they are deeply tied to our confidence, identity, and femininity and Dr. Skoll restored that for me. From the very first consultation, he was professional, compassionate, and took the time to explain every step of the process with care and patience. His skill, precision, and artistry are evident in my results. I feel whole again and truly happy with the outcome. Thank you, Dr. Skoll, for giving me back not only my physical form but also my confidence. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone considering breast reconstruction surgery.

From the very first consultation to my surgery and now recovery, he has been absolutely incredible. His care, professionalism, and attention to detail made me feel so comfortable and confident throughout the entire process. I’m obsessed with my results eeeeeeppp truly beyond what I imagined! Dr. Skoll is not only an amazing surgeon but also such a cool and genuine person. I can’t wait to see him again soon and give him the biggest hug for changing my life in the best way possible! Highly, highly recommend him to anyone considering surgery, you’ll be in the best hands!Posted on KylieTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If there were a 10/5 star option, I’d use it. Dr Skoll and his anesthetist are incredible-professional, kind, and effortlessly brilliant. They made me feel completely cared for from start to finish, and somehow made the whole experience feel surprisingly easy and light hearted 😁 Perfect results. I’m obsessed. Absolutely fabulous from start to finish. 10/10, would recommend a million times over!Posted on SarahTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you’re looking for a plastic surgeon then I couldn’t recommend Dr. Skoll enough. He gives honest and direct advice, has an excellent bedside manner and is absolutely meticulous in his work.Posted on Marina RedpathTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr Skoll was the third surgeon I consulted, and the only one who made me feel like more than just a number. While others sent me generic quotations weeks later, he personally emailed me a tailored quotation within days of meeting him and saw me again to discuss my expectations. His responsiveness and genuine care set him apart immediately. I had my breast implants removed after 20 years — and by this stage they really did look ridiculous, riding far too high on a 52-year-old. Along with the removal, he performed a lift/mastopexy, a muscle repair, and a lower blepharoplasty. With the bleph, it was like he used a magic marker and just wiped away my eye bags. He took every concern seriously, answered all of my questions with patience, and even WhatsApped me after surgery to check that I was okay and remind me to sleep on my back. I’m thrilled with the results — the breast surgery, the lift, the bleph — all of it. Both in comfort and appearance, I couldn’t be happier, and I’m so grateful I chose a surgeon who truly cares about his patients.Posted on Stephanie PerrierTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m so grateful to Dr Skoll for the amazing care and results I received from my facelift. From the moment I met him, I felt truly listened to and cared for. His expertise and gentle approach made the whole experience comfortable and reassuring. The results look natural and have given me a renewed sense of confidence. Thank you, Dr. Skoll, for your exceptional skill and kindness throughout my journey.
