Hi there, I am looking at having my reduction done in Aus rather than in NZ (I got a quote for $19k from a surgeon here in Auckland!).I am interested in Dr Steve Mertens & Dr Andrew Broadhurst. Has anyone used either of these surgeons, or been given quotes for breast reduction surgery? Any feedback appreciated!

Hi guys, I am looking for some recommendations to a plastic surgeon in Melbourne for a Breast Lift and Reduction. I was first interested in Dr. Tavkoli in Sydney but would need to stay 10-14days in Sydney after the surgery and that's just not practical for me as I have 2 young children All suggestions welcome Thanks Renee

Hi everyone, I use to have very large natural 8F boobs. I stopped taking the pill, lost a bit of weight, and now have saggy, wide-set 8D-DD breasts (i.e. they're quite far apart on my chest). They look good in a bra, but as soon as they come out of a bra they drop considerably down and to the side. I still have quite a bit of tissue there, but it's not sitting as high or as close together as I would like. I've had three consultations with two surgeons in Melbourne. The first said I didn't need an augmentation, but a lift should do the trick. The second said a lift won't give me the

Its was really perfect result gynecomastia surgery with Dr. Darin Muangthai (Specialist plastic sugeon at The SIB clinic, Thailand) I suffered from gynecomastic since i was young. I am always worried about it for long time as I am a real man but why did I have large breast like a woman like this. I told my friends about this and asked them if they have any idea to deal with it. And was so lucky that one of my friend was also faced with this problem like me and he suggested to go to do gynecomastia surgery. He told me he was done it already in Bangkok, Tha -
I've been reading through experiences and searching for doctor reviews but either cannot find any reviews on the doctors I'm considering or there's very little follow up after surgery - no doubt because everyone is so happy they're off having a ball with their new assets I live in Brisbane (closer to Ipswich), I'm 44, 5' tall and 65kg. Current breast size is 12G, or H, something quite ridiculous for my short frame. I've spoken to my GP and she was so thrilled with my plan to get a reduction she didn't even charge me for my consult! I've been researching doctors and my list to consider in

I am looking at having a breast reduction with Dr Mark Lee in West Perth. Anyone on here had this done with Dr. Lee? Wanting to know if anyone had issues with nipple sensation loss post surgery. Thanks

Hi all, I'm just starting to investigate getting a breast reduction, and I've not long lived in Tasmania, so I'm not sure exactly how things work here. I would be having the BR for medical reasons (pain, mainly). I'm at a loss as to what it might cost me, as I don't have private health insurance. I have read so so many contradictory pieces, some of which say medicare will cover the entire price if it's done for medical reasons in the public system; others saying I could be out of pocket from $1000 anywhere up to about $4,500. I'm positive about all the rest of the surgery, bu

Has anyone been to or know anything about Dr Robert Doyle on the Gold Coast? I have a referral from my doctor for a great reduction for him and I just wanted to know if he was any good. I had a consultation with Dr Luke Stradwick last year but could not afford the surgery then. Do I need another referral to return there? Thanks

Hi everyone, I'm a Perth girl, only 19 yo, in the process of trying to get a breast reduction from 18E/F to around a C cup. I have already got a referral from a GP and have seen Dr Mark Lee out in Subiaco about 2 weeks ago. I'm really pleased with his work and really want to go ahead with the surgery, but I've found the cost to be a bit more that I expected - as I saw from other forums that most women were only out of pocket approx. $2000 or so. I have Medibank private health insurance, and I've been told that some of the procedure and most of the hospital stay will be covered by medicare and

Hi everyone - any advice on reduction and lift with dr sheree moko seems to be very little on here. Have seen craig layt and sheree moko. Layt only thinks need a lift but moko happy to do both, only want a bit - to be perky "c"s not sloppy DDs ?. Moko cheaper but really just want to be confident both seem really nice upon meeting

Hi ladies I'm currently researching surgeons for a breast reduction & lift, I've narrowed it down to 2. Dr Ian Timms and Dr Tony Connell, just curious as to if anyone here has had any experiences with the surgeons and if so what were your thoughts and recommendations? Thanks in advance

Total newbie so any advice and guidance is appreciated. Background - two babies later, no plans for more, successful weight loss and healthy lifestyle in hand (just on the dreaded "last 5kg" journey), good decrease in body fat % and more muscle density! long history of IVF and big hormone/drug protocol that came with it saw my happy c-cup grow to monster dd/e cup which is enviable for most girls, but ridiculous on my small 5" frame. Regardless of weight and fat loss, my boobies have remained the same size and don't appear to be going anywhere soon. So my questions are: 1) Is a reduction

So yesterday was the day! I had 660g from the left breast removed and 620 from the right and am already so happy with the results! still got the drains in and not enjoying that- am finding I have sharp pinchy pains where they're entered and can't wait to get them out. Swelling as started today, will see if I'm allowed to start icing. im surprised at how much mobility I have?! It's achy but I don't feel restricted in my arm movement at all, which considering what my surgeon told me I was expecting to be moving like a t-rex! Blood pressure is low- 91/40 which is even low for me so nearly passed

Hi everyone! I am new to the forum, and I am so happy you all are here. I've already read through a lot of posts in the forum. I am getting a breast reduction in Canberra. I'm trying to decide between Tonks and Taylor. I know I need to see them both first, and I haven't, but you know how it is - I'm just trying to collect all the information that I can! My main worry is that my surgeon won't reduce my breasts enough. I don't want to pay $10k (after Medicare and PHI) to end up as a D cup. I have a physical injury in my neck and I am happy to have breasts that look too small on my fra

I'm thinking of a small reduction - currently DD/E - down to a full B to be more in proportion to my small frame and hopefully ease some neck/back pain. I'm getting a little overwhelmed with surgery and incision options for this type of small reduction. Any ladies that have had this size reduction before, what type of surgery, incisions, drains or no drains, recovery etc did you do and would you have had requested anything be done differently if you could do it over again?

I'm currently a DD cup (or close to it) and would feel comfortable with a B cup on my small 5" frame. Sensible nutrition and exercise over the past 3.5 years has seen me become a little happier with my overall body but these boobies are not going down in size. I'm over the shoulder, neck and back aches let alone having to buy 10-12 size tops instead of an 8 just so my boobs don't bust out. With a reduction of only 2 cups or so, and I don't think a lift is essential (although it would be nice) what would be my best option: Surgical breast reduction; Lipo; or Vaser lipo Any other procedur

HI everyone. Looking to get breast reduction surgery either in Townsville or Brisbane area. I have all the information for Townsville surgeons but I have no idea of good surgeons for the brisbane areas so figure I would turn to those who have had experiences. I don't know how to tell if they are good or not. And any information of rough costs would be greatly appreciated. I've started calling places for information but like I said I'd rather hear from people who have had it done or in the process and know of good surgeons! Thank you
