Dr Beryl Tan

Patient-centred care is my priority.

Dr Beryl Tan is a female plastic and reconstructive surgeon based in Melbourne, Australia.

Dr Tan’s focus is placed on a positive body image, be it with or without surgery. She achieves this by paying attention to patient needs with care and empathy. 

With this in mind, it is important to consider that not everyone is a suitable candidate for surgery due to health factors or mental and emotional state. This is where Dr Tan’s skills and experience are invaluable. You can trust that she will deliver honest feedback and recommendations to help you reach the best outcome.

Dr Tan ensures that all patients are well informed, including all associated risks, with plenty of time to consider the procedure before deciding. It is important to Dr Tan that a mutual understanding of the desired goal is understood so a partnership can be created. This not only optimises the healing process but also ensures the best outcome for you.

  • Abdominoplasty
    Get rid of the excess skin and fat in your abdomen that is unresponsive to exercise. Lower abodminal skin overhang can occur after pregnancy or weight loss.
  • Liposuction
    If you still have skin with good elasticity, the underlying fat is removed using a a suction cannula ranging from 3-5mm. It is the main surgical tool to treat lipoedema.
  • Body contouring (abdominoplasty, fleur-de-lis abdominoplasty, body lift)
    Losing a lot of weight is often the beginning of a long journey of lifestyle modifications to help maintain the weight loss. On top of that, they have to deal with excess overhanging skin at the abdomen, arms and thighs. Many also benefit from breast lift with or without augmentation. Beware that preoperative preparation and after surgery care are both very important as the risk of complications can be as high as 30%! Find out more.
