Is Breast Reduction the Right Choice for You?
Unlike other types of breast enhancement surgery, breast reduction may be prompted by physical symptoms as well as aesthetic preferences. Some of these concerns might include:
▪️Neck, back, or shoulder pain
▪️Rashes or skin infections in the fold beneath the breast
▪️Grooves in the skin on the shoulders where bra straps tend to be placed
▪️Difficulty performing day-to-day activities including work and exercise
When breast reduction is undertaken for functional reasons, the procedure may be eligible for coverage through Medicare or a private health fund. Cosmetic breast reduction is an elective procedure, and therefore, the full cost of the procedure is the patient’s responsibility.

Where does Dr Ek perform procedures?
Some basic procedures and treatments are undertaken in our rooms, while anything requiring sedatives or general anaesthetic is usually performed in a hospital operating theatre.
Dr Edmund Ek’s consulting rooms are well equipped for walk-in/walk-out appointments and treatments, and depending on the procedure will require no anaesthesia, or a local anaesthetic only.
If you need to be put under heavy sedation or general anaesthesia, your procedure will be performed in the operating theatre of a registered and accredited hospital facility, with a qualified anaesthetist present.
All major procedures are undertaken in hospital as day- or longer-stay admissions, depending on how long you need to be monitored after the procedure.
For more information, please contact our team at +61 3 8419 0900.

Do I need a referral for my appointment with Dr Ek?
Referrals are recommended if you wish to claim the Medicare rebate on your consultation treatment (where applicable). We also recommend that you have Hospital Cover with a private health insurer to offset the cost of any required hospital admission.
If you are seeking cosmetic surgery, you must have a referral. This referral should preferably come from your usual general practitioner. If that is not possible, it may come from another GP or other specialist medical practitioner. Your referring medical practitioner must work independently of Dr Ek and must not perform cosmetic surgery or non-surgical cosmetic procedures themselves.
For more information, please contact our team at +61 3 8419 0900.
