Breast Surgery

 
The breast is synonymous with the female form. If you require or are considering breast surgery understanding what you hope to achieve is as essential as the surgery itself.
 
A consultation provides an opportunity to have a conversation about the finer details of breast surgery, ensuring you make informed decisions.

Breast reduction surgery (reduction mammoplasty) can potentially help women who are troubled by problems caused by excessively large breasts. Symptoms such as back pain, neck pain, rashes and breast discomfort are common issues faced. Surgery reduces the volume of the breast and lifts and reshapes.
 
Breast reduction surgery is recognised as a medical procedure rather than a cosmetic procedure, and as such, Medicare and some private health funds may contribute to the costs.
