Breast Surgery

Many females are unhappy with the size and shape of their breast and want to achieve a more ideal shape and size. Depending upon the females current body weight, pregnancy status the ideal procedure for the patient maybe one of the following: 

Breast Reduction

This is the procedure for females who are having excessive breast size, which often results in symptoms like back pain , restriction of the type and size of clothing they want to wear.

Breast Augmentation

This is a procedure for females with small sized breasts.

Breast Lift

This a procedure for post pregnancy females who want to regain their breast shape and size post breastfeeding.

Mothers often face sagging of breast tissue and low nipple position. After breastfeeding their children and losing the baby weight, the top part of their breasts now appear flat, and they are no longer perky. They don’t want implants but want to fill the bra cup without it “gapping” at the top.

Ideal candidates include:

  • You are bothered by the feeling that your breasts sag or have lost shape and volume
  • Your breasts have a flatter, elongated shape or are pendulous
  • When unsupported, your nipples fall below the breast crease
  • Your nipples and areolas point downward
  • You have stretched skin and enlarged areolas
  • One breast is lower than the other

Undergoing a Breast lift procedure

There are three types of incisions for a breast lift, depending on the degree of lift needed. The periareolar incision is for small lifts, and the scar is at the edge of the areola. The circumvertical (“lollipop”) incision is for medium lifts, and the scar is around the areola and vertical to the bottom of the breast. The inverted T incision (“anchor”) is for larger lifts, and the scar is around the areola, vertical and in the breast crease.

With all three incision types, the nipple and areola remain attached to the underlying breast tissue, remaining connected to the milk ducts and nerve endings. There may be a temporary loss of nipple and areolar sensation as the small nerves around the areola are regenerating. The majority of patients can expect to maintain long-term nipple sensation and lactational ability.

Undergoing a Breast reduction procedure

In patients who have excessive breast size we aim at reducing the volume of the breast while enhancing the aesthetic appeal of the breast. In this the patient usually ends up with a scar around the areola and along the lower quadrant of the breast which over time blends with the surrounding skin and becomes imperceptible. Following this surgery the females are relieved of the excessive weight on their backs. The females are able to return to desk work in a matter of 4-5 days and routine exercise by the end of 3-4 weeks.

Undergoing a Breast Augmentation procedure

This is a procedure which is designed to increase the cup size of the breast which are small in size to begin with, with the use of silicone implants. This surgery helps in boosting the confidence by giving them their desired look. This procedure is done through a small cut under the breast where it meets the chest, Which gets hidden under the breast when the female is upright.

How can plastic surgery improve sagging breasts and restore the breast shape without implants?

Breast lift and fat grafting as an alternative to breast implants

When it comes to breastfeeding, the combination of time, gravity and weight changes can cause the breast tissue and nipple position to sag, resulting in a shape that is more of a sagging ellipsel than round. There can be a loss of volume at the upper portion of the breast, accumulation of breast tissue in the outer and lower breast quadrants and down-turning of the nipple position.

A breast lift is a procedure that lifts the nipple position higher on the breast as well as lifting the sagging breast tissue, resulting in a rounder, perkier breast that sits higher on the chest wall.

A breast lift may be performed in conjunction with fat grafting, or as a standalone procedure. Fat grafting involves liposuction of either the abdomen, thighs, flanks or bra line to remove fat, which is then processed and transferred to the breast. Fat grafting can provide a subtle increase in breast volume and can round out the upper, inner portion of the breast, an area that frequently is “deflated” postpartum.

Some patients also want to include some liposuction to eliminate unwanted fat around the back and underarm bra line, to enhance the silhouette of the upper body.
