Abdominoplasty explained!

Commonly referred to as a “tummy tuck” is a surgical procedure designed to address excess skin and tissue of the abdominal area and, where appropriate, repair underlying muscle separation.

The procedure generally involves:
• A low incision made across the lower abdomen, typically positioned so it can be concealed by underwear or swimwear
• Careful separation and elevation of the abdominal skin and tissue
• Assessment of the abdominal muscles – if muscle separation (often associated with pregnancy or weight changes) is present, this may be repaired using sutures
• Removal of excess skin and tissue
• Repositioning of the remaining skin and creation of a new opening for the belly button where required
• Closure of the incisions using sutures

Important to note:
Every patient and every procedure is different. Surgical approach, recovery time, and outcomes vary based on individual anatomy, medical history, and the specific surgical plan discussed during consultation.

This post is for general educational purposes only and does not replace a personalised consultation with a qualified specialist plastic surgeon.

📞 If you’re considering surgery, a thorough consultation is essential to determine suitability and discuss risks, benefits, and expected recovery. To book an appointment call our rooms on (03) 8849 1400

Your Summer Skin Care Routine - Simple, Effective, Everyday

A consistent skincare routine can help support healthy skin through the warmer months.

Here’s a step-by-step guide our dermal clinicians commonly recommend as part of general skin care education:

✨ 1. Gentle Cleanser
Helps remove excess oil, sunscreen residue and impurities.

✨ 2. Antioxidant Serum
Antioxidants can help protect the skin from environmental factors such as UV exposure and pollution.

✨ 3. Hydrating Serum
Adds a boost of hydration to keep the skin balanced throughout the day.

✨ 4. Moisturiser
Helps maintain the skin barrier and lock in hydration.

✨ 5. SPF 50+ Sunscreen
Daily sunscreen is essential in Australia. Broad-spectrum SPF 50+ helps protect the skin from our harsh UV rays.

This routine is general information only and not personal advice. Your skin is unique, and recommendations may vary depending on individual concerns and medical history.

For personalised guidance, feel free to book in for a skin consultation with one of our qualified dermal clinicians!
