Breast Lift or Mastopexy is cosmetic surgery for a woman who feels that her breast position or shape is not in harmony with her body and desires her breasts to be restored to a youthful appearance and position. Breast lift (Mastopexy) is a commonly performed operation by Dr. Taylor and Dr. Sullivan, named among Boston’s Best Plastic Surgeons by their peers in Boston Magazine and Castle Connolly.
Breast augmentation is the most popular cosmetic operation performed by top board certified plastic surgeons because, as Joan Rivers notes, “breasts make the world go round.” Breast augmentation is for a woman who feels that her breast size or shape is not in harmony with her body or for a woman who desires more breast fullness.
Breast Reconstruction is performed after treatment for breast cancer. With 1 in 8 women in the United States having a diagnosis of breast cancer, breast reconstruction is one of the most common operations performed by plastic surgeons. Although most women will have breast conservation therapy, some will require mastectomy (removal of the breast) or elect to have mastectomy because of a genetic susceptibility with high risk for breast cancer such as a BRCA gene mutation.
Large breasts, or macromastia, can cause significant physical pain and limit physical activity. Breast reduction surgery helps alleviate the physical and psychological issues associated with large breasts. While breast reduction may be considered medically indicated to remove excess weight from the chest, it simultaneously lifts and enhances breast shape and position on the chest wall.
The volume of fat transfer to breasts may be an average of 75 to 125 cc to each breast - some may consider 200 cc to be approximately one cup size in a bra. But depending on the situation, we have found it a powerful enhancement for the breasts.
Nipple surgery can correct issues in the appearance of nipples, address their projection, or repairs developmental anomalies or asymmetries. It can also address the areola, the pigmented area around the nipple.
Gynecomastia is breast overgrowth in men. Dr. Taylor and Dr. Sullivan perform cosmetic breast surgery for men by contouring the chest to restore a masculine appearance, whether in teenage men, middle-aged men, or advanced-aged men.
