For many women who want larger breasts, or want their breasts' size and shape to match, or have had a mastectomy and are seeking breast reconstruction,  breast augmentation is an effective, highly satisfying solution. In fact, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, breast implant surgery is the top cosmetic surgery performed today.

When I am asked if breast implants are safe, my answer is yes

In over 20 years of performing breast augmentation, I have encountered very few complications. However, I want to make anyone who is considering having breast implants aware of a recent report from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons discussing a rare and highly treatable type of lymphoma that can develop around breast implants, particularly those with textured surfaces. (To read the report, click here.)

I only use smooth, not textured, breast implants 

To reassure all of my patients with breast implants, as well as those who are considering getting breast implants, I want to state very clearly: 

I have always used ONLY smooth implants for my breast augmentation patients, not the textured ones cited in these two sources. The recent concerns do not involve these types of implants and my breast augmentation patients do NOT need to be concerned about this.

For many of my patients, they've just never been satisfied with the size of their breasts. Some feel their breasts are too large. Others think their breasts are too small, and that larger breasts could make them feel sexier and more feminine in bras, bathing suits and figure-hugging tops and dresses. 

One of the joys of being a plastic surgeon is being able to give women the breast size and shape they’ve always wanted. To achieve larger breasts, I recommend breast augmentation with breast implants, a safe, long-term, highly successful way to get the breast size they’re looking for.

If you want larger, fuller breasts, breast implants are a safe, highly successful way to get the breast size you’ve always wanted. In fact, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, breast augmentation is the top cosmetic surgery performed today. This comes as no surprise because whether it’s increasing a woman’s breast size, getting her breasts to match, or performing breast reconstruction, breast implant surgery is the most common plastic surgery procedure I perform in my practice.  

For my patients who choose to have breast implants, it can be a wonderful turning point in their lives, boosting their self-esteem, body image and sexual satisfaction, and I am pleased that I can help achieve these positive outcomes for them. Very often after performing breast augmentation surgery, my patients actually say to me, “I love my new breasts! I'm so glad I did this!”

If you've always wanted larger breasts, or if you'd like your two breasts to match, or if you've had a mastectomy and are seeking breast reconstruction, or for a number of other reasons, breast augmentation could be the solution you’ve been looking for. In fact, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, breast implant surgery is the top cosmetic surgery performed today.

For many women, breast implants help them feel sexier, younger, more voluptuous...more feminine. For others, breast implants correct breast misalignment, breasts that never developed, the absence of breasts after surgery, or some other issue. But for all of these women, breast augmentation can be a wonderful turning point in their lives, boosting their self-esteem and enabling them to have a positive body image, sometimes for the first time.

I often feel that a video can accomplish a lot more than a printed brochure. That’s why I’ve started making short videos where I talk about a certain plastic surgery procedure, and my patients seem to really like them. I describe if you’re a good candidate for that particular surgery, what happens during the procedure, what results to expect, and what the risks and benefits are. Since I’ve had a lot of patients come to me lately asking about breast reduction, I thought I’d make a video about it.

From time to time I make short videos where I talk about a certain plastic surgery procedure, and my patients seem to really like them. I describe if you’re a good candidate for that particular surgery, what happens during the procedure, what results to expect, and what the risks and benefits are.  

As well as hearing me talk (rather than being handed a printed brochure), patients like the videos because they get a lot of important information from them. That said, I thought I’d make one about a common breast shaping procedure I perform: a breast lift. You can read what I talk about (here in this blog) or you can watch my short 2-minute video by clicking on the button below.

In my plastic surgery practice, I have many, many patients who want larger, fuller breasts. However, I also have many patients who would like their breasts to be smaller. Very large breasts, especially on small-framed women, can cause neck pain, back pain, painful indentions on the shoulders, rashes, problems with exercise, self-consciousness and embarrassment. 

If you feel your breasts are too large, especially if they have become cumbersome and uncomfortable, breast reduction surgery can be a very effective solution. As well as reducing the size and weight of your breasts, this procedure also improves the shape of your breasts and nipple areas, allowing you to feel good about yourself and your appearance, sometimes for the first time.

It’s also important to know that I perform breast reduction on men as well, usually due to a condition called gynecomastia in which male breasts are abnormally enlarged.
