Breast Surgery
Overview
Breasts are one of the most beautiful parts of the female body. Idealized throughout history, they are seen as symbols of femininity and beauty. Whether a woman feels her breasts are too small, too large, or have lost their shape because of breastfeeding or aging, there are many reasons to consider breast enhancement.
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation enlarges the size of the breasts and gives women the body contours that are traditionally identified as “feminine.” Natural breast augmentation procedures improve the appearance and enhance self-confidence.
Breast Lift
(Mastopexy)
Any women are comfortable with the size of their breasts but are unhappy with sagging or pendulous breasts. For these women, breast lift surgery, also called mastopexy, will raise and reshape the breasts. Many women seek mastopexy because pregnancy and nursing have left them with stretched skin and less volume in their breasts.
Breast Reduction
Breast reduction surgery is something often considered by women with very large and heavy breasts who may experience a variety of medical problems caused by excessive weight. Problems may include the neck, back and shoulder pain, skin irritation from bra strap indentations in their shoulders, and even skeletal deformities and breathing problems. Yeast rashes under the breasts are quite common.
Breast Reconstruction
From a patient perspective, breast reconstruction is one of the most rewarding plastic surgical procedures available today. New medical techniques and devices help your plastic surgeon to create breasts that are more natural than at any previous time in history. Reconstructed breasts can actually feel warm, soft and supple. The scarring has also been minimized to reduce the stigmata of breast surgery.
