DISCLAIMER: The outcomes shown are only relevant for this patient and do not necessarily reflect the results other patients may experience, as results may vary due to many factors including the individual’s genetics, diet and exercise.
What This Gallery Shows
Cases in this gallery include patients who received a range of implant types, sizes, and profiles. Implant selection for each patient was guided by detailed assessment of their individual chest wall dimensions and tissue characteristics, alongside a detailed discussion of their goals during consultation.
Breast Augmentation Planning — Individual Assessment
Thorough planning is central to breast augmentation surgery. Every patient — regardless of background — presents with different chest wall measurements, tissue volume, and skin quality. These factors, not generalisations, drive implant selection.
Patients with a smaller chest wall base width, limited existing breast tissue, or a particular preference for modest proportional change will typically be assessed for lower-profile or narrower-base implants. Implant surface, profile, and placement are all determined by measurement rather than assumption.
Dr Turner uses the Volume Sizing System during consultation, which allows patients to visualise how different implant volumes sit on their individual frame before a decision is made.
Sydney Consultations — Bondi Junction and Manly
Dr Turner consults at two Sydney locations:
Bondi Junction — Eastern Suburbs. Surgery at Bondi Junction Private Hospital. Manly — Suite 504, Level 5, 39 East Esplanade, Manly NSW 2095. Surgery at Delmar Private Hospital, Dee Why.
All surgery is performed in Sydney. Patients consulting from Brisbane, Canberra, Newcastle, or the Gold Coast travel to Sydney for their surgical procedure.
Understanding Your Results
After photos in this gallery are taken at three months or later, when initial swelling has resolved. Final implant position and softening continue to develop over the first twelve months. The factors that influence your own result include your anatomy, tissue coverage, implant type and placement, and individual healing — all of which are discussed in detail at the time of consultation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does this gallery exist as a separate category?
Patients researching surgeons often look for results from patients with a similar body type or background. This gallery is provided as a practical reference for patients of Asian descent who want to see outcomes from a comparable starting point. All surgical planning is individualised — this gallery does not imply a standardised approach or a fixed result for any group of patients.
How is implant selection approached for patients with a smaller chest wall or limited existing tissue?
Implant selection is based on measurements, not assumptions. Dr Turner takes detailed chest wall width measurements and assesses existing tissue to determine the appropriate implant base width. For patients with a narrow chest wall or limited tissue coverage, this often guides the selection of a narrower implant with a profile that suits the available base — but this varies widely between individuals.
Can I request a specific implant size or outcome based on the photos I see in this gallery?
Photos can be a useful starting point for consultation conversations, but they cannot be used to determine an appropriate implant for your body. Dr Turner will assess your anatomy, take measurements, and use volume sizers during your consultation to help you understand what may be achievable given your individual tissue characteristics and chest dimensions.
Are round or anatomical (teardrop) implants more commonly used?
Both are used. The choice depends on existing tissue, chest wall dimensions, and patient goals — not on ethnicity or background. Dr Turner will discuss both options and make a recommendation based on your individual assessment.
What regulatory requirements apply to breast augmentation in Australia?
A GP referral is required before your first consultation. Current AHPRA regulations for cosmetic surgery require a minimum of two consultations, a psychological evaluation, and a mandatory cooling-off period before surgery is scheduled. Dr Turner’s practice team will guide you through the process when you make your first enquiry.
