Patients travelling from across the Great Southern region can expect the same thorough assessment process, regardless of whether they are based in Albany, Denmark, Mount Barker, or Esperance.

The Procedure

Surgery is performed under General Anaesthesia in an accredited hospital. Incisions are most commonly made in the breast crease (inframammary fold), although other approaches may be used depending on the surgical plan.

For implant augmentation, a pocket is created either beneath the muscle or breast tissue, and the implant is placed before closing the incision with sutures. For fat transfer, the processed fat is injected into the breast tissue in multiple layers.

The procedure usually takes 1-2 hours. If a lift is also performed, surgery time will be longer.

Follow-up arrangements are tailored to the individual and may vary depending on clinical needs and travel distance.
