Breast Surgery

Breast Augmentation is a personal decision that can change your self esteem, your confidence and your life. If you are unhappy with the size or shape of your breasts, then Breast Augmentation surgery may be just what you’re looking for.

By increasing their fullness and projection, your breasts will appear more voluptuous. Breast Augmentation surgery can also help make your breasts more proportionate with the rest of your body. When your figure is more balanced, your self esteem will undoubtedly increase.

Breast Augmentation, also called an augmentation mammaplasty, uses breast implants to fulfill your wish for fuller breasts. This surgery can also restore breast volume that you may have lost after bearing children or losing weight. If you were injured or had to have a mastectomy because of cancer or other misfortune, a breast enhancement can restore your confidence with reconstructed breasts.

Breast Augmentation will not:
Correct sagging or drooping breasts. If sagging is your main concern, you should consider a Breast Lift. This procedure works by removing excess skin and tissue, lifting the breast, and repositioning your nipple. A Breast Augmentation changes only the size and shape of your breast.

Often times, however, these two procedures are completed together. Depending on your body and your needs, the procedures may be done in the same operation, or they may take different operations.

Good candidates
Breast Augmentation is an incredibly individualized surgery. If you are considering this procedure, you should do it only for yourself and not to please someone else. You should also have realistic expectations. You should note that breast implants are not guaranteed to last a lifetime and future surgery may be required to replace one or both implants. Also keep in mind that pregnancy, weight loss and menopause may influence the appearance of your altered breasts throughout your lifetime.

The procedure
Your breast surgeon will make an incision, depending on the where you both have decided (there are different location options). Your breast tissue will be cut and raised, and the implant will be placed underneath. Your implant can go either directly under your breasts, behind the chest muscle, or in a Dual plane, in which the implant is partially behind the muscle and partially behind the breast tissue.  Dr. Joseph will discuss these various options with you and tailor the operation to meet your needs.
