What types of breast surgery do you offer?
Breast surgery can significantly enhance your appearance, comfort, and confidence. Dr. Chen offers several procedures to help refine the look and feel of your breasts:
Breast Augmentation
Dr. Chen uses silicone or saline implants to enhance your breasts' shape and size. Fat grafting may also be an option to achieve a more natural enhancement.
Breast Lift
If sagging is your concern due to breastfeeding or weight loss, a breast lift raises the position of your breasts for a youthful, perky profile. Dr. Chen also adjusts the position of your nipples and areolas during the lift. A breast lift doesn’t alter size but can be combined with augmentation for enhanced results.
Breast Reduction
For overly large breasts that cause discomfort or interfere with your daily life, Dr. Chen offers breast reduction surgery to remove excess tissue and create a more balanced and manageable chest size.
Am I a good candidate for breast surgery?
Women aged 18 or older in generally good health can be candidates for breast surgery. Smoking can hinder your body’s ability to heal, so Dr. Chen recommends quitting before surgery. During your consultation, Dr. Chen will review your goals, evaluate your breasts, and discuss how changes to size or position can improve your comfort and confidence.
What should I expect during and after breast surgery?
Dr. Chen performs breast surgery under general anesthesia, placing incisions in less visible areas to minimize scarring. After the surgery, your incisions will be dressed, and small drainage tubes may be placed to prevent fluid buildup.
Breast surgery is usually an outpatient procedure, so you’ll go home the same day. Expect swelling and soreness for a few weeks, and Dr. Chen may provide a compression garment to support your recovery. Use over-the-counter or prescription medications to manage discomfort.
Most patients can return to work within a few weeks but should avoid vigorous activities until Dr. Chen clears them.
