How Does the Choice of Surgeon Affect the Cost of Breast Augmentation in Sydney?
Women considering breast augmentation in Sydney must carefully evaluate the qualifications and experience of their chosen surgeon. In Australia, any doctor with a medical degree can legally perform cosmetic surgery. This allows some practitioners to market themselves as “cosmetic surgeons” without having undergone specialized training in plastic surgery.
A Specialist Plastic Surgeon is a government-accredited specialist who has completed extensive training in both reconstructive and cosmetic surgery. Only surgeons approved by the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (RACS) in the specialty of plastic surgery are entitled to use the title “Specialist Plastic Surgeon.”
Is Breast Augmentation Covered by Medicare or Private Health Insurance?
Breast augmentation is generally classified as a cosmetic procedure, which means it is not covered by Medicare or private health insurance. Exceptions may apply for cases involving congenital abnormalities or breast reconstruction following mastectomy. Dr Turner can guide you through eligibility criteria during your consultation.
