Breast Augmentation

Arguably the most popular breast enhancement procedure with Mommy Makeover patients, breast augmentation increases the size of the breasts with the addition of silicone or saline breast implants. In Marietta, Atlanta, and throughout Georgia, women choose the doctors at Plastic Surgery Center of the South for their sensitivity, understanding, and many years of combined experience. Breast augmentation may be a good choice for you if:

• Your breasts have lost volume after pregnancy or breastfeeding
• You’re dissatisfied with your naturally small breasts
• You’ve previously undergone surgical breast augmentation and wish to improve your results or upgrade your implants

Breast Lift

Sagging breasts are a natural part of the aging process. However, the changes caused by pregnancy and breastfeeding can expedite the process, causing breasts to sag (called ptotic breasts) earlier in life. Breast lift surgery doesn’t change the size of the breasts, but it does improve their placement on the chest. Just as its name suggests, a surgical breast lift raises the breasts to a perkier, more youthful-looking position. A breast lift may be the right choice for you if:

• Your nipples point downward or extend past the breast crease
• Your breasts have sagged or lost their shape after breastfeeding
• You are satisfied with the size of your breasts but unhappy with their placement

Combined Breast Augmentation & Lift

For women who are bothered by both the size and the position of their breasts, a combined breast augmentation and lift is a common option for a more comprehensive improvement. Adding a breast lift to a breast augmentation does not alter the recovery process and in many cases can provide optimal results. Our board-certified plastic surgeons often combine these surgeries during a Mommy Makeover. An augmentation/lift may be a good choice for you if:

• You’re unhappy with both the size and the position of your breasts
• The shape, volume, and position of your breasts has changed significantly due to pregnancy or breastfeeding
• Your concerns cannot be addressed fully by breast augmentation or breast lift alone

Breast Reduction

While breast augmentation is a popular choice, many women require breast reduction to streamline their silhouettes and complement their newly tightened, well-toned contours. Women with heavy, excessively large breasts can suffer emotionally as well as physically. Often, breast reduction provide long-lasting results and newly boosted confidence. This option may be the right choice for you if:

• You frequently experience back, neck, or shoulder pain due to the weight of your breasts
• The size of your breasts restricts you from certain activities such as working out
• You feel self-conscious about the large size of your breasts and often cover up
• The size of your breasts makes it difficult to find clothes that fit properly
