What Are Breast Procedures?

Breast procedures are cosmetic procedures that allow the patients to achieve their ideal breast aesthetic. There are suitable breast procedures for many different breast issues, concerns, and goals. Let us examine the different breast procedures we have to offer.

Breast Augmentation with Implants

Breast augmentation with implants involves putting saline or silicone breast implants into the breasts to enhance size, projection, and symmetry. Most patients who are not satisfied with their breast size are good candidates for this breast surgery.

Breast Augmentation with Fat

Breast augmentation with fat is another breast procedure that enhances the breast size. It is appropriate for patients who do not want breast implants but still want to improve volume. It draws excess fat from another part of the body. The fat is processed before being transferred into the breasts to improve breast size and projection.

Breast Lift (Mastopexy)

Breast lift is a breast procedure that aims to lift and rejuvenate the patient’s sagging breasts. This is ideal for women after pregnancy or who have experienced drastic weight loss. Younger patients who have breast ptosis (drooping) are also candidates for this breast surgery.

Breast Reduction

Breast reduction can be considered both a functional and a cosmetic surgery. It reduces the breast size of patients who are unhappy with their large breasts. Patients who are suffering neck pain, back pain, and other health issues due to their large breast size are excellent candidates for breast reduction surgery.

Nipple Reduction

Women may have long nipples due to breastfeeding or other causes. Nipple reduction surgery is specifically designed to address this issue and restore the ideal breast aesthetics of the patient.

Inverted Nipple Repair

Many people who have inverted nipples wish they could have them corrected. Inverted nipple repair is a cosmetic surgery that corrects this issue.

Gynecomastia (Male Breasts)

Gynecomastia is a male breast condition where there is an abnormal growth of breast tissue. This may be due to puberty, significant weight gain, or a variety of other factors. District Plastic Surgery provides gynecomastia surgery (male breast reduction) so men can achieve a more masculine breast aesthetic.

Breast Implant Removal (En Bloc Capsulectomy)

This breast procedure is for patients who have previously undergone breast implant surgery. It removes the breast implant and the surrounding scar-tissue capsule. The implant may be replaced with a new one, or the natural appearance of the breast may be restored. This is appropriate for patients who are experiencing cosmetic and/or medical issues due to their breast implants.

Breast Revision Surgery

Breast revision surgery is a procedure for patients who have undergone breast procedures in the past and are unhappy with the results. This procedure can correct medical and/or cosmetic issues.

Ideal Candidates for Breast Procedures

All candidates for breast procedures are in good overall health and have realistic expectations. They have no upcoming pregnancy plans.

Your Consultation

The consultation will involve discussing the concerns of the patient regarding their breasts. A physical exam and evaluation of their medical records will be conducted before creating a surgical plan for the ideal breast procedure.

The Cost of Breast Procedures

The price for each breast procedure is different. Anesthesia fees and breast implant cost may affect the total price of the surgery.
