Breast Augmentation
Augmentation Mammoplasty
Breast augmentation or augmentation mammoplasty is a cosmetic surgery designed to enhance breast size, shape, and volume using implants. Though this procedure is most often performed to improve the look of natural breasts, augmentation can also recreate your shape after mastectomy, biopsy, or injury.
Breast Lift
Mastopexy
Breast lift surgery is commonly used to counter the effects of time, gravity, pregnancy, and breastfeeding. As women go through the natural changes brought about by age and the stages of motherhood, the breast tissue can begin to lose volume as the skin of the breasts loses elasticity. The procedure improves the firmness as well as the shape of the breasts.

Implant Removal & Replacement
Breast implants are extremely durable and should last many years, but as with any implant device, they will not last throughout your lifetime. Over time, breast implants will eventually wear out and require replacement.

Breast Capsule Surgery
Capsular Contracture Surgery
The formation of scar tissue around the breast implant pocket is called a capsule. Scar tissue formation is a common occurrence that rarely causes any noticeable problems. When Capsular Contraction occurs, the scar tissue around the implant tightens, leading to pain, and distortion of the breast.
The procedure used to correct Capsular Contraction is determined by the severity of the symptoms, the patient’s unique anatomy, and implant integrity. One of two techniques can be used, an open capsulotomy or capsulectomy.
Male Breast Reduction
Gynecomastia Surgery
Male breast reduction surgery removes excess fat in the chest as well as problematic glandular tissue. It can also reduce the size of the areolas and nipples. The goal of the surgery is to make the chest flatter, firmer and more traditionally masculine.
Many men have an enlarged or feminine-looking chest, and in fact, it is estimated that over a third of all men will experience this condition at some point in their lives. Often, the appearance of breasts is a source of frustration and embarrassment for these men. This condition, technically known as gynecomastia, may be caused by prescription medication or a transient hormone imbalance.
While gynecomastia may resolve itself after discontinuation of the medication or with hormonal changes that occur in puberty and early adulthood, in some cases the enlarged breasts will remain and need surgical correction.
