Doctor Patient Communication

Finding the right breast augmentation surgeon is vital to achieving the right results. 
The patient must have complete confidence in the surgeon's ability and be able to speak honestly about what her desires are.

I recommends the following points in helping you choose your surgeon:
  • Visit as many different surgeons as you need until you feel really confident.
  • Listen to the surgeon during the consultation and assess whether they have understood your desires and whether they discuss concepts such as individually tailored procedures, body balance and aesthetically pleasing outcomes rather than just bigger breasts.
  • Ask about the surgeons training in breast augmentation and how many breast augmentations they have performed.
  • Ask to see several before and after photographs. This is the best indication of the surgeon’s artistic ability.
  • Check the surgeon’s reputation and ask to speak to previous patients.

Frown lines making you look angry?

In my rooms you can come in for an obligation free consultation with one of my nursing staff to be assisted to see what works for you and what will make you look your best and feel your best, in the most natural way possible.
One of the areas that can be treated are the frown lines. These can make the happiest person look angry and unhappy but we have treatments that can turn that frown upside down.

Part 25 Q: What’s on the horizon?

The big things on the horizon are understanding the ways hormones interact with the skin and the tissues better and using the research to treat ageing, plus using stem cells to help us regenerate tissue and stop them from ageing. 
Prevention is also a big focus.

Part 24 Q: What checks should be made on a cosmetic surgeon before undergoing a procedure?

Most doctors in Australia are well qualified; it’s just the nature of medicine here in Australia. But there’s a very big difference in the level of talent among these qualified surgeons. Word of mouth is everything and that’s just not ‘my friend went to someone and they kind of had a good result.’
Do your research and find someone who consistently comes up with great reviews and someone who has a great reputation. That’s the person you need to see. Not just because the results will be good, but because it also means the complications rate is extremely low. They’re the two things you want to know – you want to know that you’re in really safe hands and that you’re going to get a beautiful, natural looking result.

Part 23 Q: How do you use cosmetic procedure to combat the following common ageing concerns?

Acne scarring
We treat most acne scarring with microdermabrasion, lasers or a peel. When scarring is too deep for these treatments to work, we fill the scarring with hyaluronic acid. If a patient has deep or big areas with scarring, they can respond really well to dermal fillers. Patients with finer acne scars can see results from our treatment in as little as one visit, while more sever scarring will need to be treated broadly a couple of times, then we target any problem areas after that. The way our acne treatments erase scars is by flattening the skin around it so the acne scarring disappears.
The best thing for acne is to treat it while you’re a teenager. And thanks to advances in technology, we can now do that. Teen acne can be treated with blue and green wave length lasers that can shrink the glands. This treatment should be complimented with really good skincare products. If all else fails, go onto Roaccutane. But that should be your last resort.

Part 22 Q: How do you use cosmetic procedure to combat the following common ageing concerns?

Lines caused from smoking
My first piece of advice is to stop smoking. But if the damage is already done, the most common treatment is to use hyaluronic acid dermal fillers as most lines caused from smoking are around the mouth.
