Types Of Breast Surgery Procedures We Offer

Dr. Chalekson offers a comprehensive array of surgical breast procedures to accomplish a variety of aesthetic goals.

Breast Augmentation

If you are unhappy with the size, shape, projection, or symmetry of your breasts, breast augmentation can help you achieve the appearance you desire. In this procedure, our surgeon utilizes implants or fat grafting to enhance your breasts’ volume and balance.

Breast Implant Removal

Breast implant removal is performed for patients who wish to remove or replace their implants due to personal preference or medical concerns. This procedure can restore a more natural breast appearance and may be combined with additional techniques to enhance shape and symmetry.

Breast Lift

A breast lift can give your bust a more perky and youthful appearance. Also known as mastopexy, this procedure rejuvenates breasts that are beginning to appear saggy due to factors like genetics, aging, or breastfeeding.

Breast Reduction

An overly full bust may not only be an aesthetic concern but can also contribute to health issues like back, neck, and shoulder pain, and rashes. Breast reduction [reduction mammoplasty] reduces the size of overly large breasts while improving the overall appearance of the bosom.

Breast Reconstruction

If you have lost one or both breasts from a battle with cancer or another form of illness or injury, breast reconstruction can help to restore your figure and feeling of femininity.

Motiva Implants

Motiva implants are advanced breast implants designed to provide a natural look and feel with enhanced safety features. These implants offer improved adaptability and softness, helping patients achieve balanced, aesthetically pleasing results.

Tubular

Tubular breast correction addresses a congenital condition where the breasts develop with a narrow shape and limited volume. This procedure reshapes the breast tissue and improves symmetry, creating a more natural and proportionate appearance.

Capsular Contracture Treatment

Capsular contracture treatment corrects a condition where scar tissue forms tightly around a breast implant, causing firmness or distortion. This procedure helps restore softness, improve comfort, and return the breast to a more natural shape.

Fat Transfer to Breast

Fat transfer to the breast uses your body’s own fat to enhance breast volume and contour. Fat is carefully harvested from another area and transferred to the breasts, creating subtle, natural-looking enhancement without implants.

Inverted Nipple Repair

Inverted nipple repair corrects nipples that retract inward instead of projecting outward. This procedure improves both appearance and function, creating a more natural contour with minimal downtime.

Nerve Reconstruction After Mastectomy

Nerve reconstruction after mastectomy is designed to restore sensation that may be lost during breast surgery. By reconnecting or repairing nerves, this procedure can help improve feeling and overall quality of life.

Nipple Areola Nerve Reconstruction

Nipple areola nerve reconstruction focuses on restoring sensation to the nipple and surrounding tissue following breast surgery. This advanced technique helps improve sensory function while supporting a more complete recovery.

Gender Affirming Care

Gender-affirming procedures are approached with respect, collaboration, and attention to your individual goals. Surgical options may include chest procedures, body contouring, and facial surgery designed to help your physical features better align with your identity. Care is always personalized, with open communication and support throughout the process.

However, as with any surgical procedure, it is important to be in good health and have realistic expectations about your results. Before your procedure, an extensive health screening and discussion will be performed to review your potential surgery and expectations and to maximize your result and minimize your risk for complications.
