Breast Plastic Surgery

Choosing A Breast Procedure

Patients considering any kind of breast rejuvenation generally want to maintain the normal shape of their breast. By enhancing your breast size and shape, breast augmentation can give you the more proportional figure that you always wanted. According to statistics from the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), breast augmentation is the second most popular cosmetic surgical procedure (just behind lipoplasty) for women.

Patients desiring only an increase in breast volume may choose between a variety of implants for the Breast Augmentation. Combining a breast lift with an augmentation may be the procedure for patients who desire more volume but are also interested in changing the placement of the nipples.

The basic difference in a Mastopexy (breast lift) and a Breast Reduction involves the removal of excess breast tissue. During the breast reduction, removal of breast tissue precedes the reshaping and lifting of the remaining tissue; whereas, a breast lift involves only the lifting of the current breast tissue.
