Our Team

Vie Institute remains the longest established plastic surgical practice on Queensland's beautiful Sunshine Coast. Established in 1994 by Dr Mark McGovern, we have been providing state-of-the-art plastic and reconstructive surgical expertise to our immediate Sunshine Coast region, Brisbane (100 km to the south ), northern regions, interstate and overseas.

Our aim as a team is "Service Excellence!". In accordance with this aim we are continually improving the services we offer you. A major contribution to this success is employing the right staff. Over the years, we have amassed a team of the Coast's very best.

In 1998, we recognised the need for a more holistic approach to cosmetic rejuvenation and the prevention of age related problems. We researched world trends, and looked at scientific studies of the many and varied non-surgical modalities emerging from this embryonic field. After eighteen months of research and training, we opened our "cosmetic clinic" in June 1999. We changed our name to Sunshine Coast Plastic Surgery and Cosmetic Clinic to reflect this addition.

Once again our reputation for attention to detail and professionalism in the non-surgical field spread quickly. We realised the need to train more staff to our levels of excellence. Our search for the very best personnel on the Coast has been the hardest, but the most rewarding journey for us.

Today, we have a fabulous team! You will find your every dealing with our lovely girls, warm, informative, discreet, and extremely professional. We are well equipped and practised at making long distance consultations and planning for surgery very simple and easy for you. We can help to make your surgical arrangements for you, as well as help with holiday plans for the rest of the family if necessary.

In our continual search for improvement, we have realised that our clients are wanting more than to just look great- they want to live longer, they want to be vibrant and healthy forever!

Anti-ageing medicine (or "wellness medicine") is an embryonic specialty aiming at increasing life-span as well as your health and vitality. A vast amount of research has documented the major mechanisms of human ageing, and allowed numerous interventions.

As we embrace anti-ageing medicine in this, the 21st century, and continue to metamorphose, we have also realised the need to change our name. Vie is the French word for "life". our aim is to put more back into your life, so that you can get on with it and enjoy what life has to offer.

We hope that you enjoy all that we, at Vie Institute, have to offer. Only treatments and surgery that are truly effective, have been scientifically corroborated, and have minimal associated problems are offered to our clientele.

Vie Institute is situated along a quiet stretch of river at Cotton Tree. This area is fast becoming the medical specialist centre of the Sunshine Coast. Our rooms take full advantage of the beautiful views of the sparkling waters of the Maroochy River, looking out across the river mouth to Mudjimba Island. We have purpose built our rooms to provide a modern and relaxed space for you to enjoy.

Confidentiality is paramount at Vie Institute. We ensure your comfort and privacy at every visit.
