Services
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation enhances breast size and shape using saline or silicone implants. Our board-certified surgeons customize implant selection based on individual anatomy and aesthetic goals. The procedure addresses asymmetry, volume loss from pregnancy, or naturally small breasts. We employ advanced techniques like Keller Funnel insertion to minimize trauma and scarring. Patients experience improved self-confidence and clothing fit with natural-looking results.
Breast Lift
Breast lift surgery corrects sagging breasts by removing excess skin and repositioning breast tissue. Combining lift with implants addresses both volume loss and ptosis for comprehensive rejuvenation. Our surgeons use lollipop incisions to minimize scarring while achieving youthful contours. The procedure restores nipple position and creates firmer, more uplifted breasts that maintain natural sensation and function.
Breast Reduction
Breast reduction alleviates physical discomfort from overly large breasts while improving proportions. Our technique removes excess tissue and reshapes breasts for balanced contours. Patients experience relief from back pain, bra strap indentation, and activity limitations. The procedure also reduces health risks associated with macromastia while maintaining breastfeeding capabilities.
Mommy Makeover
Mommy makeover combines procedures like breast augmentation/lift with abdominoplasty to address post-pregnancy changes. Customized treatment plans restore pre-pregnancy contours by addressing multiple areas of concern simultaneously. Our approach prioritizes natural results while minimizing recovery time through coordinated surgical techniques.
Liposuction
Liposuction removes stubborn fat deposits to enhance body contours. Our surgeons use advanced techniques for smooth, natural results in areas like the abdomen, thighs, and back. The procedure complements healthy lifestyle habits by targeting diet-resistant fat pockets while preserving surrounding tissues for optimal skin retraction.

Questions
What breast augmentation options are available?
We offer saline, silicone, and gummy bear implants with various shapes and projections. Our surgeons help determine optimal implant size and placement based on your anatomy and goals.
How long do breast implants last?
Implants typically last 10-15 years. Our data shows exceptionally low rupture (0.0005%) and contracture (0.007%) rates, with replacement recommended before potential complications arise.
What's the recovery time for breast surgery?
Most patients return to desk work within 4-5 days. Full activity resumption takes 6 weeks. Postoperative bras and specific care instructions ensure optimal healing.
Can I breastfeed after breast surgery?
Yes, our procedures preserve milk ducts and glandular tissue. However, 30% of women without surgery also experience breastfeeding difficulties unrelated to surgical history.
What financing options are available?
We offer CareCredit and Alphaeon financing programs to help patients access desired procedures with manageable payment plans.
Are results permanent?
While surgical results are long-lasting, implants require replacement every 10-15 years. Maintaining stable weight and following postoperative care maximizes longevity of outcomes.
