During your consultation, Dr Craig Rubinstein provides detailed information about the procedure, potential risks and complications, and realistic outcomes so you can make an informed decision that is right for you.

Every patient’s anatomy, goals and circumstances are unique. A personalised assessment is essential to determine whether surgery is appropriate.

Healing after an abdominoplasty 👩🏼‍⚕️

This is a gradual process, and every patient’s recovery journey is unique.

In the first few weeks, swelling, tenderness and fatigue are completely normal. Your body is healing from surgery, and giving yourself time, rest and gentle movement is essential. It’s important to follow your post-operative instructions and allow your body to recover at its own pace.

If you would like more information about abdominoplasty recovery or are considering a consultation, please contact our reception team for further guidance on (03) 8849 1400.

Laser Genesis is a non-invasive laser treatment performed using the Cutera platform. It delivers gentle, controlled heat into the deeper layers of the skin (the dermis) without damaging the surface.

Unlike more intensive resurfacing treatments, Laser Genesis works gradually by warming the dermal layer to stimulate collagen activity and support the skin’s natural renewal processes.

This treatment may assist in improving the appearance of:
• Diffuse facial redness
• Rosacea-prone skin
• Uneven skin texture
• Enlarged pores
• Fine lines
• Mild acne scarring
• Overall skin tone and clarity

Because the epidermis remains intact, downtime is minimal. Most patients describe the treatment as a gentle warming sensation and are typically able to resume normal activities shortly after.

A course of treatments is often recommended, as collagen stimulation occurs progressively over time. Outcomes vary between individuals depending on skin type, concerns, and medical history.

A personalised consultation with a qualified dermal clinician is essential to determine suitability, discuss expected outcomes, potential risks, and alternative treatment options.

When it comes to breast implants, Dr Craig uses Motiva implants for carefully considered clinical reasons.

While there are a number of implant options available and each surgeon’s approach is different, Dr Craig has been using Motiva implants for several years as part of his practice.

Motiva implants are smooth-surface implants and have not been associated with Breast Implant–Associated Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (BIA-ALCL), a rare condition linked to certain textured implants.

They are designed with advanced gel technology to help the implant retain its shape even if the shell is compromised, and are manufactured to high international medical standards.

While Motiva implants are engineered for durability and are often expected to last at least 10 years, no breast implant is considered lifetime, and individual outcomes can vary.

Every patient’s anatomy, goals, and medical history are different — which is why a personalised consultation is essential.

Book a consultation with Dr Craig to discuss whether a breast augmentation is right for you!
