Breast modification is viewed as both a cosmetic and reconstructive procedure. Whether you have recently undergone a mastectomy to remove one of both of your breasts, or wish to restore your original fullness following weight loss or breastfeeding, or want to enhance the size of your naturally small breasts, Peninsula Cosmetic and Reconstructive Surgery is here to consult with you on your options. With over fifteen years of experience in breast modification surgery, Dr. Mark Kanter will discuss everything from which implant (gel or saline) and size is best for you, to financing and insurance coverage. Breast Reconstruction: For patients who have lost one or both breasts to cancer, reconstruction offers the opportunity for us to create a soft, natural looking breast. This procedure can be performed at the time of mastectomy or a later date, either with a breast implant or a tranverse abdominal myocutaneous flap procedure, so your new breasts will look natural and restore symmetry to your body. Breast Augmentation: This procedure enlarges your breasts through the surgical placement of silicone gel or saline breast implants. Breast implants create fuller breasts for cosmetic purposes, can restore breast volume lost after weight reduction or pregnancy, or can be used to reconstruct your breast following a mastectomy. Breast Lift (Mastopexy): While not a full augmentation, this procedure can give your body a fuller look. A mastopexy raises the breast, the nipples are repositioned, and the areolas may be reduced in size. Patients who are satisfied with the size of their breasts but not the look have opted for this surgery. Breast Reduction: For patients who wish to reduce size following weight loss or to help relieve back pain or other side effects, we offer a procedure to give you more natural-looking, smaller breasts to better suit your body's frame. Contact us today to learn more about these and other procedures.
