Breast Treatments

Breast augmentation: This is a surgical procedure that involves placing implants under the breast tissue or chest muscles to increase the size and fullness of the breasts. Breast augmentation can also correct asymmetry or restore volume after pregnancy or weight loss. Breast augmentation is the most common cosmetic surgery in the world, with over 1.6 million procedures performed in 20201.

Breast lift: This is a surgical procedure that involves removing excess skin and reshaping the breast tissue to lift and firm the breasts. Breast lift can also reduce the size of the areola (the dark skin around the nipple) and reposition the nipple higher on the breast. Breast lift can be done with or without implants, depending on your desired outcome. Breast lift is one of the top cosmetic surgeries for women, with over 600,000 procedures performed in 20201.

Breast reduction: This is a surgical procedure that involves removing excess fat, glandular tissue, and skin from the breasts to reduce their size and weight. Breast reduction can also alleviate physical discomforts such as back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, and skin irritation caused by large breasts. Breast reduction can also improve the shape and proportion of the breasts. Breast reduction is a popular cosmetic surgery for both men and women, with over 400,000 procedures performed in 20201.

Breast reconstruction: This is a surgical procedure that involves rebuilding the shape and appearance of one or both breasts after mastectomy (surgical removal of the breast) due to breast cancer or other conditions. Breast reconstruction can be done using implants, your own tissue (flaps), or a combination of both. Breast reconstruction can help restore your sense of wholeness and femininity after breast loss. Breast reconstruction is a common cosmetic surgery for women who have undergone mastectomy, with over 200,000 procedures performed in 20201.

Nonsurgical breast treatments: These are procedures that do not involve surgery or anesthesia, but can still enhance the appearance of your breasts. Some examples of nonsurgical breast treatments are:

Laser treatments: These are procedures that involve using laser beams (intense pulses of light) to target various skin issues on the breasts, such as scars, stretch marks, pigmentation, sagging, or hair growth. Laser treatments can also stimulate collagen production and improve skin elasticity and firmness. Laser treatments are among the most popular nonsurgical cosmetic procedures for skin rejuvenation, with over 2 million procedures performed in 20201.
