Breast Surgery

Breast surgeries are procedures performed to modify or alter the breast size, shape, position, and more. There are many reasons patients may choose this option: Breast surgery may be done for cosmetic goals, to reconstruct the breasts, or for medical reasons. Regardless of what type of surgery a patient is interested in, the process will always start with a consultation with Dr. Iteld.

The Iteld Plastic Surgery patient coordinators will be by your side every step of the way, guiding you through the process of breast surgery, maximizing your comfort, and speeding your return to normal activities. We take great pride in using tried and true breast surgery techniques, along with the newest pharmacological and technological developments to get the best results from a range of surgical options:*

Breast augmentation is a type of breast surgery that makes the breasts larger, shapelier, or more symmetrical. Patients may decide to get breast surgery with implants to make naturally small breasts larger or improve the volume of breasts that have lost fullness. This is a highly customizable breast surgery procedure, so patients will need to decide on several details with help from Dr. Iteld, including the most appropriate size, shape, placement, projection, and incision type for the implants.

Implants aren’t the only option for improving the shape and size of the breasts. Another way to achieve this is by having fat transferred from another area of the body to the breasts. The size increase from a breast enhancement with fat transfer tends to be very subtle. It can also be used to enhance the breast shape.

Although implants will make the breasts larger, they won’t necessarily make sagging breasts perkier. For patients who want to lift their breasts to make them look shapelier and more youthful, a breast lift may be the best surgical option.

A breast revision may involve replacing implants from a previous augmentation surgery, removing the implants altogether, or correcting any complications that have occurred following an augmentation procedure.

Breast reduction is a form of breast surgery that can benefit patients who want to address overly large breasts that cause chronic discomfort or pain due to their size, inhibit the enjoyment of various activities, or draw unwanted attention.

A breast reconstruction involves the use of different techniques to rebuild the shape and volume of the breasts after a mastectomy or lumpectomy.

A Mommy Makeover will usually involve procedures to enhance the breasts and abdomen—two areas that are highly affected by pregnancy—to restore the body to a “pre-baby” shape. An augmentation, lift, or other form of breast surgery will usually be included as part of a combination of surgeries.
