Breast surgery is a cosmetic surgery used to adjust the shape or size of your breasts. You might be unsatisfied with your breasts’ natural appearance, or you might miss the way they looked when you were younger.
With weight fluctuations, hormone fluctuations, and the general toll of time, your breasts tend to change in their shape and size.
What types of breast surgery can I get?
At Plastic Surgery Arts Center, Dr. Garcia performs several types of breast surgery. Depending on your needs, he’ll help you choose between:
Breast augmentation
Commonly called a “boob job,” breast augmentation surgery increases the size of your breasts for cosmetic purposes. Dr. Garcia uses silicone or saline implants to make your breasts more firm, round, and shapely.
Breast reduction
During breast reduction surgery, Dr. Garcia reduces your breasts’ size by removing excess fat, tissue, and skin. You can get the surgery for cosmetic purposes only or to treat back pain resulting from the extra weight on your chest. Both men and women commonly get this surgery to improve their body image.
Breast reconstruction
Breast Reconstruction is a rewarding procedure for a woman who has lost a breast due to cancer or other disease. Reconstruction of a breast that has been partially or completely removed is possible through a combination of plastic surgery techniques that not only creates a new breast but also can dramatically improve a woman’s self-image, self-confidence and quality of life. The results of breast reconstruction can be relatively natural in appearance and feel; however a reconstructed breast will never look or feel exactly the same as the breast that was removed. There are several reconstructive techniques: Tramflap, breast implants following breast expanders, and nipple areola reconstruction.
Breast lift
Over the years, gravity tends to pull your breasts down, stretching the tissue and making them much less perky than when you were young. During a breast lift, Dr. Garcia shortens the elongated tissues and ligaments to lift your fallen bosom.
Who is a candidate for breast surgery?
Breast surgery benefits many patients who want to see a difference in their body shape and enjoy the boost in confidence that it brings.
Dr. Garcia determines if you’re a good candidate for your desired breast surgery if you:
- Don’t smoke
- Have realistic expectations
- Are bothered by your breasts’ appearance
- Experience other symptoms due to your breasts’ size, such as back pain and chafing
- Are healthy overall
- Want to get the surgery for your own satisfaction and not for someone else
To make sure you’re a good fit for breast surgery, you’ll first attend an in-depth consultation with Dr. Garcia to discuss your medical history and expectations.
