Dr Fred Fotouhi is an Australian-based medical practitioner with extensive experience in procedural medicine, skin cancer surgery, and facial aesthetic procedures, developed over more than a decade of continuous clinical practice across Melbourne and the Mornington Peninsula.

After completing his medical degree in 2005 and working as a surgical registrar overseas, Dr Fotouhi continued his professional training in Australia, becoming a Fellow of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners and later a Fellow of the Australasian College of Cosmetic Surgery and Medicine. His clinical philosophy combines surgical precision, detailed anatomical knowledge, and evidence-based aesthetic medicine to prioritise patient safety and natural-looking outcomes.

Dr Fotouhi currently consults and performs procedures at
Elite Medical Toorak and Elite Medical Centre Mornington, where his work includes:

• Diagnosis and treatment of skin cancer

• Upper and lower eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty)

• Facial rejuvenation and laser-based procedures

• Minimally invasive aesthetic treatments

Over the course of his career, he has treated thousands of skin cancer patients and performed more than 1,000 eyelid procedures, including advanced techniques such as transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty, fat preservation and repositioning, and surgery performed under local anaesthesia. These modern approaches are supported by contemporary surgical literature and evolving best-practice standards in aesthetic medicine.

Dr Fotouhi is known for a calm, patient-centred consultation style focused on clear communication, realistic expectations, and ethically guided decision-making. He believes that successful aesthetic medicine should enhance natural facial harmony rather than create artificial change, and that medical integrity must remain central to every procedure.

In addition to clinical practice, he maintains a strong interest in ongoing education, research, and technological innovation within laser and aesthetic medicine. His professional development is informed by peer-reviewed medical literature and international clinical collaboration, reflecting the broader standards promoted by organisations such as the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners and global academic resources indexed through PubMed.

Patients travel to see Dr Fotouhi from across Melbourne, the Mornington Peninsula, regional Victoria, and interstate Australia, seeking careful assessment, personalised treatment planning, and a safety-first medical approach to both functional and cosmetic concerns.
