A Comprehensive Range of Breast Procedures
Every patient’s anatomy, history, and goals are different, which is why Dr Hertess offers a full suite of options under one practice.
Depending on your circumstances, this may include breast augmentation to add volume and change breast shape, breast lift surgery to reposition breasts that have changed due to pregnancy, weight change, or ageing, or augmentation mastopexy for patients who want both volume and lift addressed in a single procedure.
For patients who already have implants and are considering a change, Dr Hertess also performs removal of breast implant surgery, including explant with en bloc capsulectomy where clinically appropriate.
Patients seeking a reduction in breast volume, whether for comfort, symptom relief, or proportion, may discuss breast reduction surgery, while those with differences between the size or shape of each breast may be suited to breast asymmetry correction.
This range of options means that whether you are considering cosmetic breast surgery on the Gold Coast for the first time or seeking revision surgery after a previous procedure, Dr Hertess can discuss the full spectrum of possibilities with you during consultation, rather than limiting the conversation to a single technique.
Why Choose Dr Hertess for Breast Surgery?
Dr Hertess is recognised as an experienced breast surgeon on the Gold Coast, known for her calm, evidence-based, and honest approach to patient care. As a female specialist with more than three decades of surgical experience, she offers a perspective that many patients say helps them feel heard and understood, rather than being guided toward a particular outcome.
Every consultation involves a thorough, honest discussion of your goals, your suitability, and the realistic outcomes and risks associated with your chosen procedure, because informed decision-making, not persuasion, is central to how Dr Hertess practises.
Patients considering cosmetic breast surgery Gold Coast-wide are supported by a dedicated team from their very first enquiry, through surgical consultation, and by the nursing team from the point surgery is scheduled until one year post-operatively.
Who Considers Breast Surgery?
Breast surgery is a personal decision, and patients come to Dr Hertess for a wide range of reasons, including:
- Wanting to restore volume or shape lost after pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Noticing changes to breast size, shape, or position due to weight change or ageing
- Living with a difference in size or shape between the breasts
- Experiencing discomfort or symptoms associated with breast volume
- Wanting to remove or replace existing breast implants
- Seeking a second opinion or revision after previous breast surgery
Suitability for any procedure depends on your general health, medical history, and individual anatomy, which is why every patient undergoes a thorough consultation and assessment before a treatment plan is recommended.
