Breast augmentation surgery is an excellent option for women who want larger breasts. Additionally, women with asymmetrical breasts or slightly sagging breasts can benefit from breast augmentation surgery. Patients, together with Dr. Wire, will choose the size and type of implant - saline or silicone - based on their desired results. An incision is made in one of three locations – under the breast at the crease, under the armpit, or around the nipple. The implants are placed either under the breast tissue over the chest muscle, or underneath both the breast tissue and muscle.
Breasts that are too large can cause health problems, such as pain in the back, neck, and shoulders. Women with excessively big breasts may have poor posture, and feel uncomfortable or self-conscious about their bodies. Dr. Wire performs breast reduction surgery to remedy such cases. An incision is made around the periphery of the areola that extends down to the crease of the breast. Excess fat, tissue, and skin are then removed. During your consultation, you and Dr. Wire will discuss the ideal size and shape of your breasts, in order to keep them in proportion to the rest of your body.
Women with sagging breasts that hang too low could benefit from breast lift surgery. Drooping breasts are a common problem for women post-pregnancy, and also as they age. Additionally, some women have sagging breasts as a result of genetics. For the procedure, an incision is made around the nipple and at the crease of the breast. The nipple is repositioned higher up on the breast, breast tissue is repositioned and lifted, and any excess skin is removed. The result is perkier, firmer, more youthful looking breasts. Our Minneapolis patients have multiple breast surgery options for creating an enhanced physique. Contact us today to learn more.
