When you think of breast surgery in Woodinville, do you think of breast augmentation? You are not alone. There are many different types of surgery that can be done to enhance or replace breast tissues. You may be surprised by what needs to be done in order to reach your aesthetic goals. Sometimes, breast size needs to be evened out, or you may feel your breasts are too large. Sometimes, a breast lift is needed to bring your breasts back to a better position. After surgery for cancer, you may need an entire breast reconstructed to replace the breast lost to mastectomy.
Throughout life, your breasts are subject to a variety of hormonal changes, most of which will have some type of effect on your breast tissue. Breasts grow to accommodate the needs of breastfeeding, then shrink back down when no longer needed. If you lose a significant amount of weight, your breasts will shrink, which can leave you with drooping smaller breasts that do not look quite right on you.
Dr George Min, the board-certified plastic surgeon at Newvue Medical, knows how to use different types of surgery together to give you the best results. He will answer all your questions as you are deciding what you would like done.
Most breast augmentation surgery in Woodinville is done with the placement of breast implants. The array of different breast implants that are available may seem mind-boggling, but we will use our knowledge and skill to lead you to the right type of implant for your goals. Most implants today are safer than those from the past, and our patients routinely tell us how life-like the implants are in texture and feel.
Sagging breasts may be part of your problem. A breast lift moves your breasts to a better position. You may be surprised by how much of a difference a breast lift can make. When combined with breast augmentation, a breast lift can help give you back the breasts you remember from before your pregnancy or significant weight loss.
It is easy to forget that not all breasts need augmentation. If you feel that your breasts are too large for your body or you are having neck, shoulder, and upper back problems, a Woodinville breast reduction surgery should help you. After an appointment with Dr. Min, you will better understand how decreasing the weight of your breasts in front will alleviate many distressing symptoms in your back.
For men, gynecomastia can be a serious problem. Medically, you may not need anything done, but you may need to address the psychological impact of large breasts on a man. Excess male breast tissue and fat can be removed to return your breasts and chest to a normal male contour.
For a cancer patient who has lost one or both of their breasts, breast reconstruction can be a healing surgery as it restores femininity. We can work with your cancer surgeon if you would like the reconstruction at the time of your mastectomy. Otherwise, we can also wait for whatever time period you prefer after your mastectomy to start work on the restoration of your breasts.
There are a variety of surgical approaches to breast reconstruction in Woodinville. Your options will be carefully explained and all of your questions answered before you make a decision on how to proceed. Breast reconstruction can make you feel whole again after losing your breasts to cancer.
Breast implants do not last forever. The companies that make them usually suggest replacing them every ten years, but in reality, they may last longer as long as they are watched for any problems. If you start to have any type of issue from shifting implants or leaks, you will need breast surgery revision in Woodinville to bring your breasts back to how you want them. Some women develop hardened capsule tissue around their implants that is uncomfortable. When this happens, the implant and thickened capsule are removed, and a new implant can be placed if you wish.
