Dr. Stephen Chan
M.B.B.S. (Adelaide), F.R.A.C.S.

If you are considering cosmetic surgery, the choice of the correct surgeon to entrust your hopes and yourself is of paramount importance. You will want to know that he has the qualifications, experience and understanding to help fulfill your expectations. Every patient is unique and your surgeon needs to have a wide range of techniques to choose from to individualise your cosmetic surgery.
Breast implants come in different shapes and sizes and there are important differences in these prostheses. Dr Chan will listen to your expectations carefully, study your breasts and your build, show you your options and guide you to the best combination. However, you will make the ultimate decision as to what type and what size of implant you desire. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and the ultimate beholder is you.
