About Dr Azzaam Najjaar
Dr Azzaam Najjaar
MBChB (UCT), MMED (UCT), FC Plast Surg (CMSA)
Dr Azzaam Najjaar is a specialist plastic and reconstructive surgeon based in Cape Town. He completed his medical degree and specialist surgical training at the University of Cape Town and holds Fellowship certification from the Colleges of Medicine of South Africa. His practice covers both cosmetic and reconstructive surgery, with a focus on breast surgery, body contouring, gynecomastia correction, skin surgery and injectable treatments.
He consults from three locations across Cape Town and operates from accredited hospital facilities, ensuring that every patient receives care in a safe, properly equipped clinical environment.
Training & Qualifications
Dr Najjaar trained at one of South Africa’s leading medical schools. His qualifications include:
- MBChB (Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery) – University of Cape Town
- MMED in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery – University of Cape Town
- FC Plast Surg (SA) – Fellowship of the College of Plastic Surgeons, awarded by the Colleges of Medicine of South Africa (CMSA)
- Additional certifications: ACLS (Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support), ATLS (Advanced Trauma Life Support), BSSC (Basic Surgical Skills Course)
The FC Plast Surg (SA) Fellowship is the highest specialist qualification in plastic surgery recognised in South Africa. It requires completion of a full specialist training programme followed by a rigorous examination administered by the CMSA. Surgeons who hold this Fellowship have met the standard set by the College of Plastic Surgeons for independent specialist practice.
Hospital Affiliations & Clinic Locations
Dr Najjaar holds surgical privileges at accredited private hospitals in Cape Town. All surgical procedures are performed in fully equipped hospital theatres with anaesthetic support, not in consulting-room settings.
Consulting rooms are located in three areas across Cape Town, making it easier for patients across the city and surrounding areas to attend consultations:
- Tokai – Tokai Consulting Rooms, with surgical privileges at Constantia Medi-Clinic and Kingsbury Hospital
- Bellville – Durbanville Consulting Rooms, with surgical privileges at Karl Bremer Hospital
- Gatesville – Gatesville Medical Centre consulting rooms
Having three clinic locations across the Cape Town metro is unusual for a single-surgeon practice and means most patients in the greater Cape Town area are within a reasonable drive of a consultation.
Professional Memberships & Accreditations
Dr Najjaar is a registered member of the following professional bodies:
- ISAPS – International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery
- APRASSA – Association of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgeons of Southern Africa
- HPCSA – Health Professions Council of South Africa (registered specialist)
- ECAMS – Education Council for Aesthetic Medicine and Surgery
ISAPS membership requires that a surgeon holds a recognised specialist qualification in plastic surgery and operates within an accredited facility. APRASSA is the South African professional body for qualified plastic surgeons. HPCSA registration as a specialist is a legal requirement to practise as a plastic surgeon in South Africa.
Approach to Patient Care
Every treatment begins with a detailed, private consultation. Dr Najjaar takes the time to understand what you want to achieve, examines the area of concern and explains your surgical and non-surgical options. You will leave the consultation with a clear treatment plan, a written quote and a realistic picture of the expected outcome and recovery.
He performs all surgical procedures personally and manages your aftercare directly, from the day of surgery through to your final follow-up appointment. You see the same surgeon at every stage rather than being handed off to a junior doctor or nurse practitioner.

Surgery & Aftercare
All procedures are carried out in accredited hospital theatres. Dr Najjaar manages your recovery personally, with follow-up appointments included to monitor healing and answer questions as you recover.
Cosmetic & Plastic Surgery Procedures
Aesthetic Breast Surgery
Breast augmentation, reduction and lift procedures tailored to your frame and proportions. Dr Najjaar plans each surgery around your anatomy to create a balanced, natural shape.
Body Contouring
Liposuction, tummy tucks, arm lifts, full body lifts and mommy makeovers. Designed for patients who want to reshape areas that have not responded to diet and exercise, or who want to restore their body after pregnancy or significant weight loss.
Female Rejuvenation
Labiaplasty and vaginal rejuvenation procedures performed with care and discretion. These surgeries address both comfort and confidence in your most personal areas.
Male Chest Surgery (Gynecomastia)
Surgical correction of enlarged male breast tissue to restore a flatter, more defined chest. The procedure removes excess glandular tissue and fat, with minimal visible scarring.
Skin Surgery
Mole and lesion removal, scar revision and skin cancer excision. Dr Najjaar uses precise surgical techniques focused on both the medical outcome and minimal scarring.
Injectables & Botox
Anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers administered by Dr Najjaar himself. Botox treatments target fine lines and wrinkles, while fillers restore lost volume for a refreshed, natural-looking appearance without surgery.
