Breast procedures (General Information)

Breast Lift

As the years pass by, factors such as pregnancy, nursing, and the force of gravity take their toll on a woman's breasts. As the skin looses its elasticity, the breasts often lose their shape and firmness and begin to sag. Breast Lift, or Mastopexy, is a surgical procedure to raise and reshape sagging breasts, at least, for a time. No surgery can permanently delay the effects of gravity or of future pregnancies after the surgery is carried out.

Breast Augmentation (Augmentation Mammaplasty)

Breast Augmentation, technically known as Augmentation Mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure to enhance the size and shape of a woman's breast using breast implants. Breast Augmentation can enhance the body contour of a woman who, for personal reasons, feels her breast size is too small and desires a fuller breast appearance.

Breast Reduction (Reduction Mammaplasty)

Breast Reduction, technically known as reduction mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure to reduce the size and shape of a woman's breast for a number of reasons. Breast Reduction can modify the body contour of a woman who, for personal or physical reasons, feels her breast size is too large and desires a more discrete breast appearance.

Breast Reconstruction (Reconstruction Mammaplasty)

Breast Reconstruction is a procedure that provides new breasts to women that lost a breast due to cancer or other condition. It improves self-image and self-confidence. After the procedure, it is possible to obtain a relatively natural-looking breast. However, a reconstructed breast will never look or fell the same as the original one. Your surgeon will be able to describe expected results to you.
