WELCOME TO DAVIDSON SURGICAL
I am a RACS qualified plastic surgeon, with a special emphasis on you, the patient.
My private practice is boutique and focuses on quality of care. I can offer a full range of options across all domains of plastic surgery, but will refer on to colleagues when it's in your best interest.
​
Ensure you choose a surgeon who is RACS qualified. Plastic surgeons spend their training years honing reconstructive skills and developing an aesthetic eye. The threshold for entering and finishing training is high, so you can be assured of quality.
Most Plastic surgeons, including myself, have undertaken extensive post fellowship training in international centres.
​
I find it undignified to offer a list of achievements and testimonials. To find the right surgeon for you, your best research is done by asking around, and finding out who offers great patient care!
Be prepared to get more than one opinion before choosing a surgeon you trust.

SERVICES PROVIDED
AESTHETIC AND RECONSTRUCTIVE BREAST SURGERY

My aesthetic surgery practice focuses largely on breast and body surgery and includes breast reduction, mastopexy (breast lift), breast augmentation, surgery for breast asymmetry and tuberous breast deformity. I also perform abdominoplasty/tummy tuck surgery, liposuction and fat grafting as both reconstructive and cosmetic procedures.

PATIENT INFORMATION
REPRESENTATIVE "BEFORE AND AFTER" PHOTOS
Personalised "before and after" series are ethically fraught and surgeons tend to choose their best results to publicise. This can create unrealistic expectations.
To circumvent this the American Society of Plastic Surgeons offers a gallery of representative before and after photos, with patients of all body types, and a various range of realistic results.
There is also excellent patient information through the link below.
PERSONAL PATIENT INFORMATION BROCHURES
We have personalised information brochures for some of the more complex procedures offered in the links below.
COMPREHENSIVE PATIENT INFORMATION
The Australian Society of Plastic Surgeons provides this excellent website with comprehensive descriptions of common plastic surgical procedures. Included are Q&A as well as procedure videos (cartoon form).
I recommend perusing the information on site before or after your initial consultation.
