Leading female plastic surgeon located in central Sydney, Australia

Dr Simone Matousek FRACS(Plast), PhD

Dr Simone Matousek is a highly trained, leading female Plastic Surgeon in Sydney, Australia, specialising in both cosmetic plastic surgery and reconstructive plastic surgery procedures.  She manages a boutique practice in the grounds of St Luke’s Private Hospital, Potts Point, offering a full range of non-surgical, plastic surgical techniques. Personalised discreet service, natural results with attention to detail and follow up. For many women, a female plastic surgeon can provide insight and understanding which can help them feel more comfortable during a consultation. Being a female plastic surgeon, she has an excellent understanding of what it means to want to enhance one’s appearance in a natural way and will be able to better understand and interpret your goals for aesthetic surgery. 

Dr Simone is one of only a few plastic surgeons who has completed a Doctor of Philosophy or PhD, the highest level of academic degree a person can achieve. Her original thesis focused on the fascial system and ligamentous anatomy of the breast and buttock where she discovered new anatomical structures, which have been recognised internationally and are relevant to plastic surgery operations. This original research has been published in peer-reviewed premier plastic surgery journal, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, PRS and quoted around the world. She has unparalleled experience in large volume fat grafting to achieve natural breast augmentation (fat grafting alone or in combination with breast implants), breast reconstruction post cancer or congenital deformities such as tuberous breast, constricted breast or breast asymmetry. She pioneered large volume fat grafting of the breast (breast augmentation with fat) in Australia, being one of the first plastic surgeons to perform this technique in Sydney, Australia. Due to her fat grafting expertise, Dr Simone is especially sought after for congenital breast problems (asymmetry or abnormal development), soft tissue loss due to trauma, cancer or congenital deformities all over the body as well as revision liposuction surgery or other revision surgeries where fat transfer could benefit. 

Following her plastic surgery training in Sydney through the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons, Dr Simone Matousek completed two further post plastic surgery training fellowships, one in breast surgery, (Australasian Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons/Allergan Breast Fellowship) and the other in facial aesthetic surgery (Mentor International Aesthetic Surgery Fellowship, London). She visited surgeons internationally to gain direct experience in large volume fat grafting before this technique was practised in Australia to develop her own exclusive liposuction and fat grafting technique. This allowed her to gain a wealth of experience in both breast (cosmetic and reconstructive) and facial aesthetic surgery beyond the extensive training requirements to become a fully qualified plastic surgeon in Australia.

To earn the title “plastic surgeon” involves training in many different types of  procedures; it involves the management of complex congenital and trauma cases, post-cancer reconstruction, microsurgery as well as what is regarded as purely cosmetic or aesthetic surgery, although there is an overlap between the two in many cases. This extensive training in complex reconstructions means a plastic surgeon is well equipped to handle both primary as well as revision cases they may be presented with. 

Dr Simone is a plastic surgery provider for members of the Australian Defence Force. Dr Simone is an active member of the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons and is involved in examining future surgical trainees. She has most recently presented her PhD research at the International Plastic Surgery conference (ISAPS) in Miami in November 2018 on liposuction and fat grafting in the buttock region. She has spent the last several years developing an anti-ageing skin cream which was launched this year.
