Sookeat Lim MBBS, FFMACCS

Dr. Lim graduated with an MBBS from the University of Sydney in 1966 and has vast experience in family medicine, both in Australia and overseas. This has taught him a lot about seeing the patient as a whole rather than through tunnel vision. Since embarking on a career in cosmetic medicine some 25 years ago, Dr. Lim has acquired commanding experience in a wide variety of cosmetic procedures.

The Ashbrooke Cosmetic Surgery where he practices have two locations – one in Mosman and the other in Parramatta. Dr. Lim is well known for his expertise in Body Shaping using the technique called Tumescent Liposuction under Local Anaesthetic. The patient is under light sedation and relaxed but not totally asleep. This allows the patient to move around while on the operating table thus allowing the doctor to reach the awkward parts of the body more easily resulting in the best shape possible. This is the most up-to-date method used by the majority of Liposuction Specialists around the world. As a result of his expertise in this field, he has been regularly asked to train the other doctors in Body Shaping.

He is also well known for his skill in Fillers and Muscle Relaxing Injections as well as in Sclerotherapy. As a result, he is also called upon to train other doctors in these fields by leading companies in the cosmetic industry like Allergan, Merz & Galderma.
