Breast Augmentation

Breast Augmentation or breast enlargement is a way of achieving a more proportionate figure. Many of Dr. Funt’s patients say that before breast augmentation their clothes did not fit well and hung on them. Others lost breast volume after pregnancy. Their breasts may have also sagged. They look at breast augmentation as having regained their youthful figure. Breast Augmentation has evolved throughout the years. Breast implants have changed and now there is a variety available. As you consider your options, there are many facts to consider and Dr Funt can be a great resource. The following will give you some insight into breast augmentation, your choices, and what to expect.​​​​​​​

Breast Lift

A breast lift, or mastopexy, is performed to return youthful shape and lift to breasts that have sagged as a result of weight loss, pregnancy, loss of the skin’s natural elasticity or simply the effects of gravity. The procedure can also reduce areolar size (the dark skin surrounding the nipple), and it can be combined with breast augmentation for added breast volume and firmness. Breasts of any size can be lifted, but results last longest when they are originally small and sagging.​​​​​​​

Breast Reduction

Large breasts may cause physical and mental discomfort and can even harm the women who have them. The size and weight of large breasts can result in self-consciousness, improper posture, pain in the back and neck, indentations from bra straps, skin rashes, breathing problems and skeletal deformities. Breast reduction surgery is usually done to provide relief from these symptoms. Performed under general anesthesia, the two- to four-hour procedure removes fat and glandular tissue and trims resultant excess skin to produce smaller, lighter breasts that are in a healthier proportion to the rest of the body.

Breast Asymmetry/ Deformity Correction

Congenital breast abnormalities are defects in the breast that are present from birth. The most common types are extra, or accessory, nipples and breast tissue. Between two and six percent of people are estimated to have these deformities. Most people with accessory nipples have more than one and they can occur from the underarm to the groin. Sometimes patients are not even aware of their existence because they may be mistaken for moles. Accessory breast tissue is most often found in the underarm area.

Gynecomastia

Enlarged male breasts (gynecomastia) affects nearly 40-60% of men, often with no known cause. This condition can be highly embarrassing as well as physically uncomfortable.

Men who feel self-conscious about enlarged breasts may seek breast reduction surgery. The procedure removes fat and/or glandular tissue from the breasts, and in some cases excess skin as well. The result is a flatter, firmer chest.
