Breast Procedures
Whether breasts are considered too small, too large, too saggy (ptotic), or in the case of males, too developed, there are safe and effective procedures to restore the look to more natural.
Implantation of the female breast is perhaps the most studied and scrutinized procedure in all modern surgery. Our initial consultation is designed to give you the information a patient needs to choose wisely, and takes about one hour to complete.
If the nipple proper is lower than the fold under the breast the condition of ptosis exists (an SAT-type word for sagging). The remedy for this is a mastopexy (uplift) with or without an implant. Since the uplift can involve more external incisions (and scars), it is important for the informed and educated patient, to make the decision for uplifting .
Included in this section is gynecomastia, often achieved with a combination of liposuction and direct surgical removal of breast tissue and rarely skin.
Achieving full and natural breasts can be easier than you might have imagined. Let Dr. McAvoy guide you through the maze of implants, styles and techniques.
When time or childbirth causes sagging, find out how uplifts, with or without implants can get you back to fullness and in shape.
If sagging is accompanied by excessive breast tissue, reduction can produce a lighter and uplifted breast. Many women, frustrated by insurance company roadblocks to getting this procedure have opted for our outpatient unit for a same day procedure.
Men of all ages have long been bothered by this affliction. With outpatient surgery, the solution can be achieved and most men are back to work within a week.
