V1 - CTME01Z01MA CAIRNS EYE, Saturday, January 26, 2019 11

The most common plastic surgery procedure among women. Silicone implants are used in 77 per cent of cases, and saline implants in the remaining 23 per cent. But enlargement and lifts are not the only form of augmentation being carried out. Breast reduction surgery is a common procedure, along with reconstruction for women who have had mastectomies due to illness, accidents or deformities. Expect to pay from $6000 to $15,000.

BREAST SURGERY

More men are undergoing breast reduction surgery for gynaecomastia – swollen male breast tissue. If a more serious health condition is ruled out, there are two treatment options: liposuction – surgery to remove breast fat, or a mastectomy, where breast gland tissue is removed. A surgeon will carry out the procedure. Between $6000-$8000.

SKIN

Tummy tucks, upper arm and thigh lifts are increasingly popular as more people have gastric bypass surgery and lose substantial amounts of body weight, leaving them with sagging skin. From $9000-$18,000.
