Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation can enhance your appearance, improve your self-confidence, and broaden your ability to wear different clothing fashions by changing the shape and size of your breasts to better match your body style. Also, breast augmentation is used to rebalance a voluptuous figure, correct lost volume resulting from age or pregnancies, and balance asymmetrical breasts.

Breast Reduction

Large, pendulous breasts may cause a woman to potentially experience various medical problems caused by the excessive weight of the breast tissue.  Problems with posture, skeletal deformities, back and neck pain, skin irritations, and nerve irritations of the fingers are common with this condition.  Bra straps often leave indentations in the shoulder area.  Many women, especially teenage girls, are very self-conscious if they have unusually large breasts.  With breast reduction surgery, women of all ages are able to have breasts that are better shaped and in proportion. 

Breast Lift

A breast lift can enhance your appearance and your self-confidence by raising and reshaping saggy misshapen breasts. Factors such as aging, pregnancy, nursing, and the force of gravity all stretch the skin and supportive ligaments of the breasts. As a result, the skin loses its elasticity, the breasts lose their shape and firmness, and begin to sag.

Breast Reconstruction

Reconstruction of the breast after a mastectomy due to cancer or other disease is quite possible with today's surgical procedures. The procedure is covered by insurance carriers after breast cancer. Using the newest medical techniques, Dr. Emory is often able to create a breast that is similar in form and appearance to that of the natural breast. The reconstruction can be done at the same time as a mastectomy or at a later date. A consultation will provide you with information on the many available options for breast reconstruction, including the TRAM flap and the latest implant technologies.

Male Breast Reduction

Although rarely discussed, enlarged male breasts is a common condition.  Gynecomastia affects approximately 40 to 60 percent of men.  There is no known cause for gynecomastia, although there has been some correlation with various drugs or medical conditions.

Men who feel self-conscious about their appearance are helped with breast-reduction surgery. The procedure removes fat and/or glandular tissue from the breasts, and in extreme cases removes excess skin, resulting in a contoured chest that is flatter and firmer.
