Aussies and Skin removal Surgery

Heya
I was just curious if any aussies have gotten excess skin removal surgery..

How much was it?
Did Medicare cover any of it?
What was the recovery like?
How long until you can get back to normal life?

I have kgs of excess skin that needs to be removed from my arms,stomach,back and legs and being a single mum i dread to know how much its going to cost but with this much skin it needs to be removed..

Thanks guys
