Before a patient decides to have surgery, they need to be prepared, both physically and emotionally. Patients are encouraged to discuss their motivations and expectations openly with Dr Buckland during consultation.

Where additional support may be beneficial, referral to a psychologist or counsellor is available. This helps ensure that patients are mentally prepared before proceeding with surgery. Specialist Plastic Surgeon MED0001135776

Q: Is surgery covered by Medicare and private health insurance?
A: Eligibility for Medicare and private healthcare rebates depends on whether or not a procedure is considered medically necessary. Examples include breast reconstruction after cancer, repair of congenital differences, or procedures to address functional issues. These cases may attract a Medicare item number and, in some situations, private health funds may also contribute.

Procedures performed solely for cosmetic reasons are not covered. During your consultation, you will receive clear information about whether Medicare or private health rebates apply and what out-of-pocket costs to expect. Specialist Plastic Surgeon MED0001135776

Recovery is different for every patient but usually follows a stage-by-stage pattern.
Rest is most important in the first days after surgery, followed by gentle movement, and a gradual return to daily activity.
Swelling and bruising are to be expected.
Patients receive specific instructions for wound care, medications, and follow-up to support safe and comfortable healing.

There are several types of breast surgery, each designed to meet specific needs:
➡️ Augmentation can restore or enhance volume
➡️ A lift reshapes and repositions
➡️ A reduction can ease physical symptoms
➡️ Reconstruction can rebuild after cancer or trauma

We discuss each option in detail during consultation so patients understand benefits, risks, and expected outcomes before making a decision.

Abdominoplasty, commonly called a tummy tuck, involves removing excess skin and tightening abdominal muscles to improve contour. Techniques may include full or mini procedures, depending on the patient’s anatomy and goals.

The process can also involve drains, compression garments, and structured recovery plans. All of these are explained during consultation with Dr Buckland to ensure patients understand what to expect.

Breast lifts can be performed using different incision patterns depending on breast size, skin quality, and the degree of reshaping required. Options include periareolar, vertical, and anchor incisions. The anchor technique extends the incision into the breast fold, which allows more skin reduction and reshaping where required.

Each approach balances lift, shape, and scar placement differently. Dr Buckland assesses each patient’s suitability individually and provides guidance on the method most likely to achieve the desired outcome.

At our clinic, breast reduction is tailored to each patient. Techniques such as the vertical or anchor incision are selected according to breast size, skin quality, and the degree of reshaping required.

The goal is to relieve symptoms such as back or neck pain while achieving results that feel balanced, comfortable, and proportionate.

The first step in any surgical journey begins with an in-depth initial consultation. It allows ample time for Dr Buckland to review a patient’s medical history, perform a clinical examination, and discuss treatment options in detail.
