At Levant Cosmetic Surgery, we understand that choosing to undergo liposuction is a significant decision – one that’s as much about who performs your procedure as it is about the procedure itself.
Recognising this, we offer our patients the unique opportunity to choose the type of doctor they feel most comfortable with:
- FRACS Surgeon
- Plastic Surgeon
- Liposuction Doctor
On this page, we’ve outlined the key differences between these professionals, highlighting the distinct advantages each brings to your liposuction experience. Our goal is to ensure you’re informed, comfortable, and confident in your choice of Levant Cosmetic Clinic.
FRACS-Qualified Surgeon
What a FRACS Surgeon Brings to Your Care
A Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (FRACS) is a title that signifies a surgeon’s commitment to excellence in surgical practice. FRACS surgeons have completed a minimum of 12 years of medical and surgical education, including at least five years of specialist postgraduate training.
Why Choose a FRACS Surgeon for Liposuction
Choosing a FRACS-qualified surgeon means entrusting your care to someone whose expertise is recognised at the highest levels. These surgeons are highly skilled at handling complex cases and bringing a deep understanding of the human anatomy and surgical ethics to each procedure. Their broad surgical background allows them to consider and manage potential complexities with a comprehensive approach.
Plastic Surgeon
What a Plastic Surgeon Brings to Your Care
In Australia, a plastic surgeon is a medical doctor who has completed medical school and then pursued further training specifically in plastic surgery. This training typically involves several years of residency and may include fellowship training in specific areas of plastic surgery. Plastic surgeons are qualified to perform a wide range of surgical procedures, including reconstructive surgery (such as after trauma or cancer treatment) and cosmetic surgery (such as breast augmentation or facelifts). However, not all plastic surgeons may have undergone additional specialised training beyond their residency.
Why Choose a Plastic Surgeon for Liposuction?
A plastic surgeon combines technical skill with an aesthetic understanding, making them ideal for those who are looking to achieve specific cosmetic goals. Their detailed understanding of body aesthetics means they’re not just removing fat; they’re sculpting your body to match your vision of yourself.
Liposuction Doctor
What a Liposuction Doctor Brings to Your Care
A liposuction doctor is a General Practitioner who has honed their skills in the specific area of liposuction. They offer a focused approach, with extensive experience in the latest liposuction techniques and technologies.
Why Choose a Liposuction Doctor?
For those specifically seeking liposuction without the need for broader cosmetic surgery, a liposuction doctor can offer specialised knowledge and experience. They’re skilled at tailoring their approach to achieve effective fat removal and body contouring, focusing solely on your liposuction goals.
Why Having a Choice Matters
The decision to undergo liposuction is deeply personal, and so should be the choice of who performs your procedure. At Levant Cosmetic Surgery, we believe in empowering our patients with the ability to choose a doctor whose qualifications, experience, and approach resonate most closely with their individual needs and comfort levels. Here’s why this choice is so important:
- Personal Comfort: Feeling comfortable and confident with your surgeon is crucial to a positive liposuction experience. By providing the option to choose, we ensure that you feel a personal connection and trust in your chosen professional’s expertise.
- Tailored Approach: Different doctors bring different perspectives and skills to your procedure. Whether you value broad surgical expertise, cosmetic specialisation, or focused liposuction experience, you can select the approach that best suits your vision and goals.
- Informed Decisions: Educating yourself about the different types of liposuction professionals and what they offer allows you to make an informed decision about your care. We strive to provide all the information you need to feel knowledgeable and confident in your choice.
