What is Paediatric Plastic Surgery | London & Essex?
Paediatric Plastic Surgery is a specialised field of medicine focused on correcting or enhancing physical conditions in children and young people. Unlike general paediatric surgery, which treats a broad range of internal health issues, paediatric plastic surgery addresses concerns related to appearance, congenital anomalies, trauma, and scarring—often with both functional and aesthetic goals.
Professor Miranda brings a unique blend of surgical precision, child-specific expertise, and cosmetic artistry, ensuring each child receives age-appropriate, tailored treatment.
Is Plastic Surgery Safe for Kids and Teenagers?
Yes; when performed by a qualified Paediatric Plastic Surgeon, plastic surgery can be safe and beneficial for children and adolescents. Professor Ben Miranda ensures that any procedure is tailored to the child’s age, development, and emotional readiness.
Procedures like pinnaplasty (ear correction) and gynaecomastia surgery (male chest reduction) can have a positive impact on self-esteem and wellbeing when carefully timed. For older teens, breast reduction may be appropriate in select cases where physical symptoms or psychological distress are significant.
With extensive experience in both cosmetic and reconstructive surgery for young patients, Professor Miranda offers expert, family-focused care that prioritises safety, clarity, and long-term outcomes.
Cosmetic Paediatric Plastic Surgery Procedures Offered
While Professor Miranda manages a wide range of paediatric plastic conditions, he has particular expertise in cosmetic procedures, including:
-
Pinnaplasty (Ear Pinning Surgery)
-
Prominent ears can cause significant distress in children and teenagers. Pinnaplasty is a surgical procedure that reshapes or repositions the ears to create a more natural, symmetrical appearance. Professor Miranda uses child-sensitive techniques to minimise downtime and discomfort, enhancing confidence and self-esteem.
-
-
Gynaecomastia Surgery (Male Chest Reduction)
-
Gynaecomastia, excessive breast tissue in boys, can be emotionally challenging, especially during adolescence. Professor Miranda performs discreet, effective surgical correction tailored to the severity of the condition. The goal is to restore a natural chest contour while supporting the patient’s psychological wellbeing.
-
-
Breast Reduction in Older Children
-
In carefully selected older adolescents, breast reduction surgery can address significant physical and psychological discomfort. Professor Miranda follows a highly individualised assessment protocol to ensure that surgical intervention is appropriate and safe based on growth patterns, maturity, and medical necessity.
-
Other Paediatric Plastic Surgery Conditions Treated
Professor Miranda also treats a wide variety of congenital and acquired conditions in children, including:
-
Accessory digits (extra fingers or toes)
-
Syndactyly (fused fingers or toes)
-
Scars, moles, cysts, and benign skin lumps
-
Soft tissue injuries

All procedures are delivered with a child-friendly approach, designed to reduce anxiety, support healing, and promote positive outcomes.
