Leah Stewart reports leg has healed after shark attack

Leah Stewart, 36, has announced via social media that her leg has finally healed following a severe shark attack at Coogee Beach in June. During the incident, a four-metre-long great white shark attacked Stewart, resulting in the loss of her arm and significant tissue damage to her leg.

Stewart reported that surgeons at St Vincent’s Hospital used an advanced surgical tool called a Dermaclose to close a large wound that covered much of her thigh. The procedure followed the loss of parts of her quad muscle and outer hamstring. After months of surgeries and rehabilitation, Stewart shared the update regarding her recovery process.
