Breast Procedures: Before & After Photos

This patient had desired breast lifting and tightening to restore breast shape and tone. Dermal mastopexy was done to reposition her nipples and areola and achieve uplift and skin tightening of her breasts.

This patient had an earlier breast augmentation. She presented with a marked stretching of lower parts of her breasts. Nipple and areola had been displaced into upper parts of breasts.
Correction was done by using lower portion of skin of breasts to raise physical level of breasts on her chest. This reduced breast length without any scars on the breasts.
Breast tissues themselves were rolled back into breasts, increasing breast fullness. Breast implant sizes were reduced to reflect this added fullness achieved with natural breast tissues.
Reductions of lower lengths of breasts automatically corrected positions of nipple areolas.
Simply stated a shelf was created at a higher level on the chest. Breasts themselves were molded and placed on this self. This approach avoids any scarring on the breast surface.
This approach is applicable to situations were nipple areolas are naturally high and breast lift is needed.

This patient had a “Bottoming Out” effect after her previous Submuscular Breast Augmentation. Her surgery had been done at another plastic surgical practice. Weight of implants had stretched the pocket of implants below her natural breast creases. This had caused sky facing nipples and areolas. This sky gazing effect is called “bottoming out of breasts”. Essentially, it is an artifact caused by the implants.
She had severe animation deformities of her breasts from muscle contractions. Animation deformity to some degree always happens with placement of implants beneath muscles.
We approached this issue by removing her implants from submuscular location and obliterating the submuscular space.
New subglandular space was made in front of muscles along desired breast outlines. Same implants were now placed anatomically in the subglandular position.

This is patient in her late 20s. She came to see us because of her displeasure with her breast augmentation. She had her surgery elsewhere. At her earlier surgery the surgeon had used 375 cc silicone gel implants in subglandular location of her breasts. She did not like the fact that her left implant had shifted outwards. This had left behind emptiness next to her left cleavage. She also felt that her implants were too heavy.

She had sought multiple opinions from other plastic surgeons before seeing us at our center. All her other opinions recommended using some variant or the other of synthetic or allograft sling to correct her implant drift.

We are against using slings for cosmetic surgery. In our practice slings are only useful for breast reconstructions but are unnecessary in cosmetic surgery of breast. We like to use existing natural structures to reshape and recontour breasts.

We tightened her existing breast skin envelope to hold left implant in more desirable location and improve the aesthetics of her breasts. We also reduced her implant size by 25 cc and used 350 cc breast implants to reduce the weight of her breasts. This would reduce her future breast sagging.

Post-surgery photos are taken six months after her revisional mammoplasty. She is pleased.

This is a patient in her late 40s. She is 5 ft 6 inches tall. She wanted to reduce her breast size.
Before surgery photos show breast weight and size disproportionate to her body structure. Breasts are also uneven. Left breast is larger than her right breast.
Post-surgery photos are taken 4 months after her surgery. 429 grams of breast tissue was removed from her left breast and 339 grams was removed from her right breast. New breast size suits her body frame.

These are frontal and profile pictures of a patient who previously had undergone breast augmentation with saline implants. Her implants had been placed behind her muscles. She had suffered deflation of her right implant.

Even before this deflation she had reservations about her appearance. Her strong muscles dwarfed her implant projections. She also had significant flex deformity from her muscle/implant interaction. She liked lifting weights and submuscular implants posed constant interference to lifting weights.

Her surgery was revised by exchanging saline implants with silicone gel implants. Replacement implants were placed subglandular. A better cleavage, a better projection and more natural breast appearance was thus achieved.

This is a patient in her 50s. She presented to us for Breast Reduction. She is 5ft 8 inches tall and weighs 140 lbs.
Before surgery photos show that her breasts were too large and heavy for her body frame. She also had excess breast tissue and skin folds in her armpits. Her left breast was larger than her right breast.

Her surgery consisted of reducing her breasts and excising excess tissues and skin from her armpits. 483 grams of breast was removed from her left breast. 468 grams of breast was removed from her right breast. Skin rolls and breast tissue from armpit area were excised.
16 grams of tissue was removed from left armpit and 38 grams was removed from her right armpit.
Post-surgery photos show her result at 4 months after surgery. Her breasts are now proportionate to her body, look shapely and youthful. Armpit skin rolls have been eliminated.
