Post Surgery
So it’s been a week since I had my breast mentation with fat grafting. Yes I am in pain, but the pain is nothing compared to the joy I feel having had the surgery and prioritised myself for one of the first times ever.
It’s too early to tell in the healing process whether or not, they are the boobs I’ve always dre reamed of. But the nurses are showing me that the nipples will return to their original position once the swelling and bruising grows down. Now I just have to wait and see.
I am so grateful for Dr Moncrieff and all the staff at Hunter plastic surgery, as well as Charlestown Private Hospital. Especially the anaesthetist who was hilarious.

My Journey to Bigger Boobs with Dr Moncrieff & Hunter Plastic Surgery
Ok so when I started researching surgeons for breast augmentation, I was absolutely OVERWHELMED! I found the reviews on real self really helpful so I decided to document to process in my review in aim of helping others out there!
To start with, I did a lot of research. I live in regional NSW where a plastic surgeon only visits once a month & had a long waiting list for that reason. After looking at that surgeons before & after pics, I decided he wasn’t worth waiting for.
I expanded my searches to Sydney & Newcastle & that’s when I found Dr Moncrieff. I absolutely loved his before and after gallery, but what I loved most was the ability to email in your pictures & receive a rough quote & recommendations from Dr Moncrieff..FOR FREE!!!! Given it was free, I expected it would take a while & wouldn’t be detailed, but I was wrong! Within 48 hours, I got a lovely email about what the Dr recommended & an approximate cost! I was so happy with the response that I rang and made a consult for the Vectra imaging asap. I think I had to wait maybe 3 weeks to get a scan, but that’s basically nothing compared to what I’d have to wait to meet with the surgeon that visits locally.

I made my way to Newcastle for my Vectra consult. From the second I worked into the waiting room, I knew I’d come to the right place. All the staff are so incredibly lovely & welcoming. It would be impossible to be sad in that place.
I didn’t have to wait for long & I was taken straight through for my Vectra scan & to discuss what result I was after. I felt very heard when I expressed my desire to have big fake round boobs! It helped having pics of what I wanted, so I highly recommend creating a boob album on your phone to take with you!
I felt so comfortable & respected in that appointment that I booked a surgery date (without even meeting the Dr). I am not normally so impulsive, but it just felt right! I kind of lucked out because a cancellation in Dr Moncrieffs schedule had popped up in two weeks, so I was booked in for that so I could talk with the Dr one on one & he could give me the run down on what he could do to help make my big boob dreams come true!

Two weeks later and I was back in the road to Newcastle! Again, as soon as I stepped into the office, I felt at home. All the staff welcomed me back & made me feel at home! I was quickly greeted by the wonderful Dr Moncrieff who took me into his office to talk about the fun stuff! We discussed size and shape & he listened to everything I wanted non judgementally. He measured me up & took into consideration everything I’d said before making his recommendations. I felt like he knew exactly what I wanted & I felt safe that he will achieve that. I left his office absolutely beaming & I cannot wait for the surgery! I’ve booked in for January but I was told I’d have another appointment before that.
I plan on updating this review as I go, but for now, good luck with your surgery journey & I highly recommend Dr Moncrieff!

Dr Moncrieff is the kindest and most talented plastic surgeon. I’m so grateful to him and all his staff at Hunter Plastic Surgery. I can’t wait to see my results once I’ve finished healing.
