BREAST SURGERY TOPS THE LIST OF POPULAR PROCEDURE

Of all the messages I’ve received from my patients over the years, perhaps none is clearer than this: Breasts are fundamental to a woman’s sense of femininity and confidence.

So it’s no surprise that breast augmentation, breast lift, or breast reduction surgery is one of our most important services.

In fact, breast surgery now tops liposuction as the most popular type of cosmetic surgery. This might have something to do with the return of silicone gel implants. Or it just might be that more and more women now recognize that they can make significant changes in their appearance and well-being without paying a steep price for it.

In our Miami clinic, we address all types of concerns.

  • Some women feel that their breasts are not proportional to the rest of their body– too small, perhaps; or overly large for the silhouette.
  • Some women would like to return to their pre-pregnancy shape; they are uncomfortable with the sagging and loss of tissue and elasticity that can result during pregnancy and nursing.
  • Or maybe they just want to counteract the effects of gravity. Like the rest of your body, your breasts are affected by time. It’s not unusual for patients to want to restore some of their youthful perkiness.

Custom Contouring For Your Unique Body

At Imagos, we offer both saline and silicone gel implants, depending on the texture and profile desired by the patient. Just as your body is unique, the treatment will vary from one individual to another. What works so well for your friend may not be the best choice for you. Watch “Silicone vs Saline Implants” video.

Breast surgery is precision body-contouring. Every surgical procedure is as unique as the individual. The elasticity of the skin, amount of existing breast tissue, the patient’s overall silhouette . . . all are taken into consideration.

A skilled and experienced surgeon will not promise a specific number for your post-surgical bra size. Instead, he will work with you to achieve a body that will leave you feeling comfortable and proud.

It’s been my experience that overly high, unrealistic expectations are the worst prognosis for breast surgery. The body is not a plastic doll to be molded in the shape of another doll.

As a surgeon, I apply my experience and judgment to help you achieve a beautiful form that fits you like a glove. I am pleased to report that we have had consistent success with our patients over the course of decades.

Secrets To Long-Term Satisfaction

For long-term satisfaction, the key is two-fold: Both surgeon and patient must share the same outlook and expectations. The first step is to hear your concerns and consider your goals. Together, we can then decide which type of treatment is best for you.

This initial consultation can’t be overemphasized. A good doctor-patient relationship is built on trust and mutual understanding.

It’s also important that our staff is helpful, friendly and attentive to your needs. Our patients know that we offer expert pre-surgical consultation as well as skilled surgical and post-surgical treatment. . . because we know that you expect, and deserve, the best.
