Body Surgery Sydney & Newcastle – Tummy Surgery by Dr Turner

• Do you have excess pockets of fat in your abdominal area?
• Are you suffering from skin irritation due to sagging skin in your arms and legs?
• Do you feel that your body has undergone significant changes due to pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or aging?

Body surgery procedures can offer a long-term cosmetic solution, with modern body contouring options, you can eliminate pockets of excess fat, smooth and tighten the skin, and attain a beautifully sculpted physique. If you, like many others, have tried every diet and exercise routine conceivable and are still having trouble with loose skin and reducing fat deposits in specific areas, you are not alone.

The good news is there are a number of procedures available that can help you achieve your goals. While ageing and weight loss all have an impact on how your body looks and feels, the effects of pregnancy and childraising can take an enormous toll on your body.

The stretching of the stomach muscles and skin of the abdomen, thighs and breasts can lead to stretch marks, excess fatty tissue and loose sagging skin. Dr Scott Turner can help you restore your pre-pregnancy figure and feel great about the way you look with his range of Post-Pregnancy Procedures.

We offer a variety of body contouring treatments to suit every patient no matter what your size or shape, to give you a look that is natural and beautiful.  Whether you are considering liposuction, a tummy tuck or other body procedures, contact my team to learn more about how we can help you.

What is Body Surgery?

Body contouring surgeries are a group of procedures aimed at improving the appearance of your body. These procedures remove excess fat, skin, and tissue from your body to reshape the area. Once the surgical incisions have completely healed, the treated area becomes firmer, smoother, and well-defined. Depending on your condition, whole-body surgery can be tailored to suit your cosmetic and medical needs.

Am I Suitable for Body Surgery?

During your consultation, your surgeon will assess your condition, body type, health history, treatment goals, and expectations to determine if a full-body surgery is right for you. In general, you are a good candidate for the procedure if:

• You don’t smoke.
• You are bothered by the appearance of a certain part of your body.
• You are physically healthy.
• You have low self-esteem.
• You have pockets of fat in your abdomen.
• You have realistic expectations.
• You have sagging or loose skin in your arms, abdomen, thighs, or other parts of your body.
• You have a stable weight.

• Improved body posture

Recovery after Cosmetic Body Procedure

The recovery time after body surgery may vary from patient to patient. This will greatly depend on several factors such as the type and extent of your surgery, surgeon’s skills, your healing ability, and desired results. Whether it’s an upper-body or lower body surgery, your surgeon will give you specific instructions during your consultation on how to speed up your recovery. These include refraining from cigarette smoking and stopping medications that may impair your wound healing.

FAQs about Cosmetic Body  Procedures

[sc_fs_multi_faq headline-0=”h3″ question-0=”Can you have multiple body surgeries at the same time” answer-0=”Some body surgeries can be performed at the same time with minimal risks. However, other surgeries that are performed at once can increase your risk of developing problems and other complications. To ensure your safety, consult with a top surgeon with vast experience in body contouring surgeries.” image-0=”” headline-1=”h3″ question-1=”What is the ideal age to have body surgery?” answer-1=”The ideal age to have body surgery will depend on the type of procedure you want to undergo. For instance, breast surgeries are recommended for younger patients since they have elastic skin and a good amount of breast tissue. On the other hand, body contouring procedures aimed at improving the appearance of wrinkles, sagging skin, and loose skin are best performed in older patients. To know the ideal body surgery that will suit your anatomy, lifestyle, and cosmetic goals, schedule a consultation with a top surgeon.” image-1=”” headline-2=”h3″ question-2=”Will your medical insurance help cover the cost of your body surgery?” answer-2=”Make sure to verify the policy of your private health insurance to determine if you can make a claim on the costs of your desired procedure. Usually, if a body surgery is done for cosmetic purposes, your private health insurance will not pay for your procedure. On the other hand, if the goal of your body contouring surgery is to treat a certain medical condition (e.g. thigh lift to reduce skin irritation and infection), then you may be eligible for a health insurance claim. By consulting with a top plastic surgeon, you will discover your treatment options and your financing options.” image-2=”” count=”3″ html=”true” css_class=””]

How to find the Best Body Surgeon in Sydney

For many patients, having cosmetic plastic surgery is a life-changing experience. There are many qualified specialist plastic surgeons, but it is always best to find one who is experienced in your procedure.

Always find a reputable medical practitioner who can offer you a range of options and give you the best advice. Avoid choosing an undertrained doctor or so-called “cosmetic surgeon”.

See our blog on the difference between a plastic surgeon and a cosmetic surgeon and how to find the best surgeon.

Look at their past patient photos, read their online reviews and find a surgeon you feel very comfortable with.

Why Choose Dr Turner Plastic Surgeon?

Dr Scott Turner is a highly experienced, fully qualified specialist plastic surgeon with current FRACS and ASPS memberships. He has spent a lifetime accumulating experience and qualifications in Breast, Body and Face Surgery.

You can fly overseas to find a cheaper surgeon in another country but not all Surgeons have the same experience or intensive training and testing qualifications.

Be sure you learn the differences between a Plastic Surgeon, a General Surgeon, a Dermatologist, a ‘Cosmetic Surgeon’ or other types of Doctors that may perform your surgery.

Choosing a Specialist Plastic Surgeon means you are choosing an accredited recognised plastic surgeon who performs surgery in an accredited hospital.
