Hi! Welcome to the Breast Academy. If you are visiting our website you have probably started thinking about having a breast augmentation surgery or maybe interested in gathering more information as a future patient.
Breast Academy was established in 2014 and located in the Pacific Private Day Hospital in Southport, on the sunny Gold Coast. Pacific Private Day Hospital is a fully accredited hospital and at Breast Academy we only use anaesthetists who are fully qualified FANZCA specialists using only general anaesthetic.
The two Directors and senior surgeons are Dr Dr Craig Layt and Dr Luke Stradwick.
Under the mentorship of our Directors, we have one to two fellows at any time who consult and operate on our patients. It is important to note, it is only our fellows who operate on our patients, not the senior surgeons. The senior surgeons are monitoring our fellows throughout the surgery to maintain best practice.
Our fellows are with Breast Academy anywhere from six months to two years. So far, we have had fellows from the United States, Belgium, France, United Kingdom, Brazil, New Zealand and of course Australia.
At Breast Academy we only offer straight forward breast augmentations - no lifts, reductions or further complex surgeries are done here. Therefore, we have a screening process for our patients prior to booking any in person consultation to ensure suitability for a standard breast augmentation. Firstly, we have our patients send in a few photographs at different angles which are then sent to our senior surgeons for a surgical recommendation. If suitable based on the free initial recommendation, we then book the in-person consultation to speak further with the patient about surgery expectations and projected results. This is where we do our 3D Vectra imaging which provides an indicative image of potential results using different sized and shaped implants.
Once our patients have undergone surgery, we schedule post op appointments at 3, 9 and 12 month marks. For our patients who are not local and cant make it into our clinic, we are able to complete the follow up appointments through email this is to ensure our fellows can view your post operative images and confirm that healing and settling is progressing well.
We share our Breast Academy results on our Instagram page.
