Breast Reduction
If you are considering breast reduction you already know the physical and psychological toll overly-large breasts can take. Back pain, neck pain, headaches, and breathing problems are only part of the equation. A disproportionate figure and the inability to find well-fitting, complimentary clothing can lead to dissatisfaction and diminished self-esteem. Breast reduction has a very high patient satisfaction because the size of the breasts can be very inhibiting both physically and emotionally. We regularly hear patients tell us that they have more self-confidence and are able to exercise more easily. This, coupled with greater ease finding clothing, results in a high patient satisfaction and generally healthier lifestyle.
Breast Implant Removal
Many patients in the Raleigh area have enjoyed their implants but would like to return to a natural size or shape or have had issues with the implants and would like to have them removed. Breast implant removal is usually performed under general anesthesia. Depending on the situation, a part of the capsule or the entire capsule is removed during the surgery. Sometimes the implant and capsule are removed together as one entity, called an “en bloc” removal.
Breast Lift
Breast lift is ideal for women who have some sagging (ptosis) due to weight loss, pregnancy or aging. The technique used will depend on your body type, and the type and degree of volume loss.
Male Breast Reduction
While Gynecomastia (enlarged male breasts) is a common condition, it is rarely talked about. Embarrassed males often limit their activities, and try to wear clothing that conceals the condition. Male breast reduction surgery is a simple procedure which assists in the reduction of excessive glandular tissue or fat and help to create a more masculine chest contour.
