BREAST COSMETIC SURGERIES
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation is one of the most common type of cosmetic surgery carried out worldwide. It is a surgical procedure performed to enlarge the breasts for a number of reasons. It can be done to reconstruct the breast mound after a mastectomy (the removal of the breast, usually done to treat breast cancer). It can also be done for cosmetic purposes – to improve the size and shape of the breast.
The original shape and size of your breasts prior to surgery will affect the suggested treatment and the final results.
Breast implants are artificial implants. The two types of breast implants commonly used are:
• Silicone gel implants
• Saline (sterile salt water) implants
During the procedure, an incision is made in the skin next to the breast(s). The location of the incisions will be discussed by the surgeon with you so you're aware of where the scars will be. After the incision, the implant is placed between your breast tissue and chest muscle, or under your chest muscle. Once the implants are properly placed, the incision is closed and protected with a dressing.

Male Breast Reduction
Male Breast Reduction, also known as genecomastia, is a surgical procedure to correct overdeveloped or enlarged breasts in men. A man’s breasts may sag and the areolas might be stretch due to excess breast tissue. It can happen in one breast (unilaterally) or in both breasts (bilaterally).
Enlarged breasts in men may be the result of hereditary conditions, hormonal changes, weight gain, disease or the use of specific drugs. Gynaecomastia is common in men of any age.
The procedure can be performed at any age, but is advisable to do it when the breasts are fully developed. Adolescents can also benefit from surgery, although secondary procedures may be required in the future if breast development continues. There are several techniques available used by plastic surgeons to treat gynecomastia. Breast reduction surgery can be done with other body-contouring surgeries, such as liposuction.
