AUGMENTATION MAMMOPLASTY: (Breast Augmentation)
Congenitally small breasts or "deflated" breasts that often result after significant weight loss or pregnancy can be improved with augmentation mammoplasty. By placing saline or silicone prosthesis under the chest muscle and each breast, the procedure yields more shapely, uplifted breasts, as well as an increase in their size. This change can remarkably improve your entire body proportion and your total body image.

MASTOPEXY: (Breast Lift)
Drooping breasts, either congenital or after weight loss or pregnancy, can be improved by surgical mastopexy. This procedure will elevate, reshape, and rejuvenate your breasts, restoring upper fullness and cleavage. Latest procedures result in minimal scarring and long lasting results.

AUGMENTATION/MASTOPEXY (breast enlargement plus lift)
Some women have small breasts that are also long and droopy. This is not an uncommon condition that especially can occur after massive weight loss. The skin envelope is proportionally much larger than the volume of breast tissue it contains. The addition of volume, by inserting an implant, will not totally fill the skin envelope or result in a shapely breast. In this situation, after the addition of an implant, the surrounding skin is tailored. This elevates the nipple/areolar to it’s normal position resulting in a larger, fuller, uplifted youthful breast without any more scarring than one would have with a mastopexy (lift) alone.

BREAST REDUCTION:
Large volume, heavy, pendulous breasts often cause debilitating back and neck pain, grooving in one’s shoulders, and causing irritation under the breasts. Reduction decreases the breasts’ size and weight, while lifting them in the process. This procedure reduces these painful conditions, restores proportion, and improves body image. Medical insurance often covers this particular procedure.

MALE BREAST REDUCTION:
Most males experience breast enlargement in their early years. By puberty, this enlargement usually subsides. Occasionally, however, this enlargement persists—sometimes due to underlying medical conditions or medications. Once a significant medical problem is ruled out, reduction can be accomplished quite simply by either suction lipectomy or through an open approach. The resulting scar in the areola area will be unrecognizable.
