A named, accountable specialist committed to evidence-based plastic surgery in Ireland. When you are a patient here, you deal directly with your surgeon — before, during, and after your procedure.
Following graduation from Queen’s University Belfast in 2014, Kevin McGarry has pursued the highest levels of training possible within Plastic Surgery Institutes across the UK, Europe and in the United States of America. His special interest is aesthetic and reconstructive breast surgery. His work has been recognised internationally through multiple original scientific publications and prize winning presentations in destinations including London, New York, San Diego and New Orleans.
Kevin McGarry is one of the first doctors globally to have received grant funding from the Emerald Foundation, Wall Street, New York to investigate patient safety in revisional breast surgery. He brings this level of experience and expertise to every patient journey to ensure you will have an individualised, informed and engaging experience.
Kevin McGarry is also an NHS Plastic Surgery consultant in the Ulster Hospital Dundonald. His special interests include complex cancer reconstruction of the head and neck, breast, limb and lymphedema. He brings the same level of care and consideration to his cosmetic work ensuring the locations he operates in and equipment used are safe, meet nationally set standards and have a proven track record.
Aesthetic surgery is treated with the same intellectual rigour as reconstructive work. The same anatomical knowledge, the same respect for healing biology, the same honesty about what surgery can and cannot achieve.
Every consultation is unhurried. There is no quota of procedures to sell, no incentive to recommend anything beyond what is genuinely appropriate for you. The consultation exists to understand your concern, assess it honestly, and advise you — even if that advice is to wait, or not to proceed.
Surgery is life-changing. The decision to have it should be made from a position of complete information, not gentle pressure. Kevin's practice is built on that principle.
Kevin McGarry maintains an active interest in the academic and educational dimensions of plastic surgery — contributing to peer-reviewed publications, participating in professional society activities, and attending international conferences to remain at the forefront of the specialty.
This ongoing engagement with the evidence base is not incidental — it is what separates a surgeon who knows what has worked in the past from one who understands what will serve you best today.
If surgery is not right for you, or if your expectations require calibration, Kevin McGarry will tell you. A consultation is not a sales meeting — it is a professional assessment.
Surgical decisions are guided by anatomy, physiology, and long-term outcome data — not by what is fashionable this season. Lasting results come from sound technique, not bold promises.
Natural, proportionate, refined. The goal is never transformation for its own sake but an enhancement that looks and feels entirely like you — just at your best.
