Happy Father’s Day 💙

Today we remember Dr Sharp’s father, Noel. Though he passed before David began studying medicine, his encouragement shaped the father and doctor David is today.

Now a proud dad of four daughters, Dr Sharp carries those lessons of love, hard work and perseverance forward.

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads and father figures who make such a difference.

And big happy birthday week wishes to Dr Sharp! 💙🎂

What does a facelift really address?

Despite its name, a facelift doesn’t treat the entire face - and it certainly isn’t one-size-fits-all.

In the hands of an experienced specialist plastic surgeon, a facelift is tailored to suit each patient’s unique facial structure and ageing features.

Typically, it targets laxity and volume descent in the mid face, lower face and upper neck - areas where patients often notice sagging, jowls or loss of definition along the jawline.

Many people who initially enquire about a mini facelift, S lift or neck lift often discover during their consultation with Dr Sharp that a standard facelift is the most appropriate option to address their concerns thoroughly.

This patient underwent a facelift with neck liposuction, followed by fractionated laser, and is shown here 3 years post op.

Fast facelift facts:
• Surgery time: 4-5 hours
• Hospital stay: 1 night
• Time off work: 3 weeks
• Time off driving: 2 weeks
• Support garment: 24/7 for 3 wks, then when at home for 3wks thereafter
• No exercise: 6 weeks
• Minor risk (in healthy patients): ~10%
• Major complication risk: ~1%

A facelift might be suitable if you’re experiencing:
• Mid-face hollowing (fat grafting may be used for volume restoration)
• Jowls or soft jawline definition
• Loose, crepey skin in the mid/lower face
• Lax neck skin or visible neck bands
• Fullness or loose skin beneath the chin

Detailed risks and recovery information is available on our website. A consultation is required to assess suitability.

Homelessness can affect anyone, and it’s growing fastest among women over 45.
Right now, more than 54,000 women in Australia don’t have a safe place to sleep. In Queensland alone, over 48,000 people are on the public housing waitlist.

Dr David Sharp is participating in the Vinnies CEO Sleepout, spending a night outdoors to raise awareness and vital funds for those facing homelessness.

We know one night isn’t a solution, but it can be the start of one! It’s our way of giving back, beyond the operating room, helping change the story for vulnerable Australians.

At The Sharp Clinics, we are guided by our values of compassion, support and respect - and we’re proud to stand with Vinnies for this important cause.

What are the medical benefits of breast reduction surgery?

Breast reduction surgery offers significant medical benefits for people experiencing physical discomfort caused by overly large breasts. As a specialist plastic surgeon, Dr David Sharp focuses on relieving these symptoms and improving overall health through:

- Chronic pain relief: large breasts can strain the neck, shoulders, and back, causing pain and tension headaches. Surgery reduces excess tissue, alleviating this discomfort and improving posture.

- Improved mobility: large breasts can limit physical activity and everyday tasks like bending or lifting. Breast reduction makes it easier to exercise and stay active, which supports overall health.

- Skin health and hygiene: excess weight can cause rashes, infections, and irritation beneath the breasts. Surgery reduces these issues by improving airflow and reducing skin folds.

- Better sleep quality: many patients find it easier to sleep comfortably after surgery, as the weight of large breasts often disrupts rest.

- Reduced risk of long term health issues: carrying excess weight in the form of large breasts can have long term health implications. Chronic pain, poor posture, and limited physical activity may contribute to secondary issues such as spinal problems, obesity and related metabolic or cardiovascular conditions.

When considering elective surgery, we encourage patients to think about the inevitable recovery and scarring involved with any procedure. This is especially important in the case of skin removal procedures, such as brachioplasty (arm reduction/lift); pictured here before, 3 months after and 3 years after surgery with Dr Sharp. Compression garments, lymphatic drainage massage and physiotherapy can reduce swelling and tension - while supporting a return to normal activities between 6 to 12 weeks after surgery. Scars development is influenced by a number of factors, including genetics and skin quality, and they can take up to 24 months to mature. During this time, scar massage, taping and microneedling or light based therapies can assist, along with maintaining a strong immune system and good nutrition. This lengthy process is aided by proactive postop support and an abundance of perseverance and patience!

If you are considering surgery this year, contact our friendly patient support team for more information about the procedure that interests you on 3202 4744.
