Tadros Plastic Surgery
Breast Surgery With Plastic Surgeon Mr Amir Tadros
(MED0001375519)
Mr Amir Tadros is pleased to offer a wide array of breast surgery options. He specialises in both cosmetic and reconstructive of the breast.
Breast Augmentation
The procedure is performed under general anaesthetic. An incision (commonly in the inframammary fold) is used to create a pocket for either an implant or transferred fat, then dressings and a support bra are applied for recovery.
Implant options include saline and silicone; placement may be above or below the pectoral muscle, with many patients suitable for a dual-plane technique that positions the implant behind two tissue planes to help a natural contour.
Fat grafting (liposuction harvest + breast injection) is an alternative for modest volume changes without a prosthesis.
Recovery involves swelling, firmness settling over time, wearing a surgical/support bra, avoiding underwires initially, and gradually returning to activity over several weeks. Implants are not lifetime devices and may require future review or replacement.
Mr Amir Tadros has extensive experience in breast augmentation using implants or fat grafting, and will discuss outcomes and suitability during your consultation.

Breast Augmentation Risks and Complications
All surgery carries risk. During your consultation, Mr Amir Tadros will discuss potential issues specific to breast augmentation including capsular contracture, rupture (with different detection profiles for saline vs silicone), displacement, rippling, scarring, infection, pain, anaesthetic risks and the need for revision.
If you experience any side-effects that you are concerned about please don’t hesitate to call us.
Breast Augmentation Costs
Fees for breast augmentation vary based on factors such as implant choice, fat grafting vs implant surgery, operating time, operating facility, anaesthesia costs, and follow-up.
Breast augmentation procedures with Mr Amir Tadros begin at $8,900.
Breast Augmentation Frequently Asked Questions
Which implant type is best?
There are two main types of breast implants available to plastic surgery patients in Australia – saline and silicone. Each has pros and cons and selection is individualised after discussing the feel, appearance, screening implications and rupture behaviour during your consultation with Mr Amir Tadros.
Where will my implants be placed?
You and Mr Amir Tadros will discuss the placement of your implants. Implants are traditionally placed either above the pectoral muscle (subglandular/submammary placement) or beneath the pectoral muscle (submuscular placement).
Submuscular placement- This may be beneficial for women with little natural breast tissue because it increases the amount of tissue covering the implant, creating a more natural look and feel.
Sublandular placement- Women with ample breast tissue can achieve a natural look with subglandular placement because their natural tissue will cover the implant sufficiently. Women who lead active lifestyles may also prefer subglandular placement because it does not disrupt the chest muscle.
Do breast implants last for a lifetime?
By selecting a qualified and experienced surgeon to perform your breast augmentation, you can lower your risk for problems or side effects from surgery. Mr Amir Tadros’s training, along with today’s technological advancements and well-manufactured implants, help reduce your risk of complications, such as capsular contracture or implant rupture. However, all surgical procedures carry risk, and you must weigh this up when considering whether breast augmentation is right for you.
Even if you have a smooth surgery and recovery, you should not expect your implants to last forever. For example, an unexpected trauma or injury to the chest area could require you to have your implants replaced. Implant failure due to age is also a possibility, as they are not designed to be lifetime devices.
Implants can often remain in the body for 10 years or more without reason for removal or replacement. If you are not experiencing any problems, even if you have had your implants for 10 years or longer, you will likely not need to do anything, but it will always be the safest course of action to schedule a routine follow-up as a preventative measure around this time.
If you do have complications or change your mind about your breast implants, there are options. Your breast implants can be exchanged for new implants if you have problems like capsular contracture, rupture, displacement, rippling or other complications. Your implants can also be exchanged if your aesthetic tastes evolve and you want a new size, shape or style.
Breast Implant Removal or explantation, is an option if you wish to remove your implants entirely. Secondary breast surgery is often more complex than primary breast surgery.

Breast Reduction (Reduction Mammaplasty)
The procedure reshapes the breasts by lifting the nipple, removing excess tissue and skin, and creating a smaller, more lifted breast. The exact technique and scar pattern vary depending on individual needs.
The surgery typically takes between 1.5 to 3 hours, and most patients stay one night in the hospital. Recovery time varies, but patients should plan for at least two weeks off work. Light activities like walking can begin after 5-7 days, with strenuous exercise delayed for 6 weeks. A non-underwired sports bra should be worn for support during recovery, and underwired bras can be introduced after 8 weeks.
Post-operative care involves dressing changes, and drains may be used for 24-48 hours. Wound healing and scarring take time, with scars initially red and becoming white over several months. Full recovery can take up to 6 months, with breasts continuing to soften and settle into their final shape. Follow-up appointments are included to ensure proper healing.

Breast Reduction (Reduction Mammaplasty) Risks and Complications
All surgery carries risk. Potential complications specific to breast reduction (reduction mammaplasty) include altered or loss of nipple sensation, wound-healing problems, haematoma requiring return to theatre, infection, scars that vary by individual, residual asymmetry, and general operation risks such as chest infection or blood clots (DVT/PE). Nipple loss is rare (under 0.5%) but risk may increase with smoking, obesity, age, or very large reductions; alternative techniques may be discussed if relevant.

Breast Lift (Mastopexy)
This surgery involves repositioning the nipple and removing excess skin to reshape the breast, providing a firmer appearance. In some cases, a breast enlargement procedure can be combined with the lift, particularly at the top of the breast. These procedures may be performed separately for more predictable outcomes.
During the surgery, the nipple is moved to a higher position, and excess skin and tissue are removed. The specific technique and resulting scars will depend on individual needs, with scars generally fading over time.
Recovery typically takes at least two weeks, and patients should refrain from strenuous activities for six weeks. Dissolvable stitches are used, and dressings will be applied after surgery. Follow-up appointments will ensure proper healing, and most patients can return to normal activities within 6 weeks.
During your consultation, Mr Amir Tadros will help you understand the potential benefits, risks, and recovery process of a breast lift. It is essential to consult with a qualified surgeon who can assess your individual needs and goals.

Breast Lift (Mastopexy) Risks and Complications
All surgery carries risk. Breast lift surgery is generally successful for most patients, but, like any procedure, it carries potential risks.
Rare complications include nipple loss, which can occur if the blood supply to the nipple is interrupted, often due to factors like smoking, obesity, age, or very large breasts. Altered or loss of nipple sensation may affect 5-15% of patients, particularly those with larger breasts.
There is also the possibility of remaining asymmetry between the breasts, as most women have naturally uneven breasts to begin with.
Scarring can vary, with some patients forming raised or stretched scars.
Wound breakdown, particularly in the breast crease area, may occur in patients with very large breasts, though it is less common than with breast reduction.
Bleeding can lead to blood clots forming within the first 24 hours, which may require surgical removal.
Infection, although uncommon, may necessitate a course of antibiotics.
Other general surgical risks include chest infections, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), or pulmonary embolism (PE), particularly in patients who smoke, are overweight, or remain immobile after surgery.
While most women can still breastfeed after surgery, there’s a chance breastfeeding may be impacted.

Breast Lift (Mastopexy) Frequently Asked Questions
Who is a suitable candidate for a breast lift (mastopexy)?
Individuals who are generally satisfied with their breast size but are concerned about the shape of their breasts—often due to factors like pregnancy, aging, or weight fluctuations—may be suitable candidates for a breast lift. A consultation with Mr Amir Tadros is essential to determine individual suitability.
Can a breast lift be combined with other procedures?
Yes, in selected cases, a breast lift (mastopexy) can be combined with breast enlargement (augmentation). However, combining procedures may require careful planning, and in some cases, it may be advisable to separate the surgeries to achieve the most predictable outcome.
What is the recovery process like?
Recovery varies among individuals. Generally, patients should allow at least two weeks off work, with full recovery taking up to six weeks. Light activities like walking can typically begin after 5-7 days, with strenuous exercise avoided for at least six weeks. A soft, non-underwired sports bra should be worn for support during recovery.
How long do the results last?
While a breast lift (mastopexy) provides long-lasting results, maintaining a stable weight and avoiding factors that cause skin laxity can help prolong the effects. Over time, natural aging processes may influence the appearance of the breasts.
Can I see examples of breast lift (mastopexy) procedures that you have performed?

Breast Reconstruction
The reconstruction can be performed at the time of the mastectomy (immediate reconstruction) or at a later date (delayed reconstruction). The choice between immediate and delayed reconstruction depends on individual circumstances and discussions with your surgeon.
Reconstruction options include:
- Implant-Based Reconstruction: Utilises silicone or saline implants to recreate the breast mound.
- Autologous (Flap) Reconstruction: Involves using tissue from another part of your body, such as the abdomen, back, or thighs, to form the new breast.
- Combination Approach: A combination of implants and autologous tissue may be used to achieve optimal results.
The appropriate method is determined based on individual factors, including body type, cancer treatment plan, and personal preferences.

Breast Reconstruction - Risks and Complications
All surgery carries risk. Breast reconstruction carries some specific potential risks and complications that may include infection at the surgical site, which could require antibiotics or additional procedures, and excessive bleeding, which may necessitate further surgery to control.
Scarring is inevitable, although the extent and visibility of scars vary among individuals.
Capsular contracture, where the tissue around an implant tightens, can cause discomfort or affect appearance.
In autologous reconstruction, flap necrosis may occur if the transplanted tissue does not receive adequate blood supply, potentially leading to tissue death.
Reduced or complete loss of sensation in the reconstructed breast is common.
Additionally, some patients may require further surgeries to achieve the desired results or address complications.
Breast Reconstruction Costs
The cost of breast reconstruction varies based on the type of procedure, complexity, and individual circumstances. It’s essential to consult with your surgeon to obtain a detailed breakdown of costs, including surgeon’s fees, hospital charges, and any additional expenses. Many health insurance plans cover breast reconstruction, but it’s advisable to verify coverage details with your provider.
Contact Mr Amir Tadros to discuss breast reconstruction costs.
Breast Reconstruction Frequently Asked Questions
Can breast reconstruction be performed immediately after a mastectomy?
Yes, immediate reconstruction is possible and may offer psychological benefits by reducing the number of surgeries and hospital stays. However, some patients may opt for delayed reconstruction due to personal preferences or medical considerations.
Will I need additional surgeries after the initial reconstruction?
Many patients require at least one additional surgery to refine the appearance of the reconstructed breast or to address complications.
Can nipple reconstruction be performed at the same time as breast reconstruction?
Nipple reconstruction can often be performed during the same surgical session as breast reconstruction, especially in autologous procedures. However, in some cases, it may be done at a later date.
What factors influence the choice of reconstruction method?
Factors include body type, previous cancer treatments (such as radiation), overall health, and personal preferences. Your surgeon will discuss these aspects to determine the most suitable approach.
Can I see examples of breast reconstruction procedures that you have performed?
Yes! You can view procedure images via the practice gallery. Results may vary from patient to patient, and images shown in the gallery are indicative only.
