Abdominoplasty Surgery
About Abdominoplasty
Cosmetic surgery of the abdomen, also called “abdominoplasty” or “tummy tuck” is designed to flatten, firm and smooth the abdomen.
This procedure tightens the muscles of the abdominal wall if they have weakened or separated after pregnancy, and removes loose abdominal skin, which may be the result of weight loss and excess fat. It can improve the appearance of stretch marks, especially those located below the navel.
If you are considering abdominoplasty, a personal consultation with A/Prof Shayan is the best way to obtain the information you will need. Call our office to make an appointment on (03) 9592 0522. If you plan to become pregnant or lose weight in the future, please discuss this with A/Prof Shayan.
Your Consultation
Initial consultation:
Abdominoplasty surgery patients first meet A/Prof Shayan where you will discuss the procedure in detail, technique to be used and recovery time. Photos will be taken. You will receive information about the surgery itself, the surgeon who will perform the surgery and costs.
Once you have had time to review all the information from the first consultation and you want to progress with your surgical journey you will meet A/Prof Shayan again for a further consultation.
You will also meet with the Patient Advisor and Practice Nurse to discuss surgical documentation and pre and post-operative care instructions.
7 days after this consultation your surgery dates can be booked and payments made.

Cosmetic Surgery is real surgery and requires a general anaesthetic, both carry risks. All surgery has a post operative recovery time and this will be discussed in detail at your consultation, your type of work or personal responsibilities / support available and your health history as well as the surgery itself will dictate how long the recovery will be. All surgery carries risks, complications are not common but they can occur and these will be discussed at your consultations.
