Surgical Care in South Sydney
As a professional with years of experience and qualifications as a Specialist Plastic Surgeon, Dr Safvat offers safe and successful cosmetic surgery for his patients. This includes a number of breast, face and body surgeries. If you are from South Sydney, and interested in any of the procedures that are offered by Dr Safvat, you can receive a one-on-one consultation.
Breast Reduction
When breasts are a disproportionate size to the body, it can cause back pain and discomfort. Dr Safvat conducts breast reduction surgery, which can reduce the size of the breasts to relief discomfort to patients. After receiving a general aesthetic, the excess tissue, fat and skin will be removed from the breasts.
Dr Safvat will use the Medial Pedicle Technique to ensure there is minimal scarring from surgery. It is recommended that patients take some time off for breast reduction surgery. You will be required to stay in hospital for one to three days after surgery and a special bra will have to be worn for six weeks.
There are some swelling and bruising present on the breasts after the procedure, but this will subside within a few weeks.
Blepharoplasty with Dr Safvat
Sagging skin as we get older can cause problems when it occurs over the eyelids. Not only can it make people feel less confident about their appearance, but it can also affect the quality of your vision.
With blepharoplasty, Dr Safvat can remove any excess skin, fat and muscle from around the upper and lower eyelids. This can improve vision and give a more youthful appearance. This surgery requires a general anaesthetic and lasts around two hours.
Patients should take some time off work for rest and to allow the swelling and bruising time to subside.
Abdominoplasty
If you have loose skin around your waist and stomach, Dr Safvat offers abdominoplasty, which is best known as a tummy tuck. This is a surgery that is suitable for men and women and aims to tighten abdominal muscles for a more desirable body shape. There is some downtime associated with abdominoplasty and patients will receive a general anaesthetic for the surgery.
The procedure takes around two to four hours to complete, with the choice of a full tummy tuck and a mini tummy tuck. Dr Safvat will be able to advise what procedure is best for each patient during a consultation. It is recommended to take one month off work for recovery.
Breast Lift
Just like other parts of the body, the breasts can be affected by age and changes, such as pregnancy. This means that they can lose their natural volume, as well as develop stretched and sagging skin. This is why Dr Safvat specialises in a Breast Lift procedure that will allow women to enjoy more youthful and shaped breasts.
The surgery takes around two to three hours and any excess skin will be removed by Dr Safvat to reshape them. In addition, the Medial Pedicle Technique is used to ensure there is minimal scarring from the incisions. You should arrange some downtime for having a Breast Lift and a special garment will have to be worn for a number of weeks to aid recovery.
Otoplasty
Having prominent ears can be worrying for a lot of children, as well as adults. That is why Dr Safvat offers Otoplasty to correct their protruding shape. Ear Surgery allows the ears to be set back closer to the head to adopt a natural position.
There is minimal scarring as incisions are made behind the ears and Dr Safvat will remove any excess cartilage and skin. Children and adults should take some time off school and work for a healthy recovery, as well as wear a head band at night for a number of weeks.
Implant Removal
Sometimes the capsules that are placed around implants can become distorted and this leads to pain and discomfort for the patient. Dr Safvat offers Implant Removal to relieve this discomfort and he is able to insert new and improved implants. While this procedure is relatively simple for a professional, some downtime will be needed for the patient to ensure swelling and bruising subsides. Normally, patients will need to take a few weeks off work to recover.
Gynaecomastia
Having too much breast tissue can be a concern for many men and there are a number of reasons why Gynaecomastia can happen. However, Dr Safvat specialises in Male Breast Reduction (man boobs surgery) and this surgical procedure can ensure that this excess fat and breast tissue is removed.
Patients will undergo surgery after receiving a general anaesthetic and some downtime is required so that swelling and bruising can lessen. Normally, a couple of weeks off work will be enough, as well as avoiding strenuous exercise for around one month.
