Breast Surgical Procedures
Breast augmentation, or augmentation mammoplasty, is one of the most common plastic surgery procedures performed today. Over time, factors such as age,
genetics, pregnancy, weight changes, sun exposure, and gravity can cause the size and shape of the breast to change. Women who are dissatisfied with the
size of their breasts, or have experienced changes in breast appearance can achieve a fuller, shapelier breast with breast augmentation.
A woman's breasts help define her femininity, and with the vast differences in shape, size, and appearance, breasts further help to define her individualism.
Therefore, changes to the breasts can be dissatisfying and make women feel as if they are losing some of their femininity and youthful vitality. Like other
areas of the body, the breasts undergo changes in response to factors such as genetics, the aging process, pregnancy and breast feeding, weight gain or loss,
and hormonal fluctuations.

Overly large breasts can cause some women to have both health and emotional problems. In addition to self image issues, you may also experience physical pain
and discomfort. The weight of excess breast tissue can impair your ability to lead an active life. The emotional discomfort and self-consciousness often associated
with having large pendulous breasts is as important an issue to many women as the physical discomfort and pain.
Breast reconstruction is a physically and emotionally rewarding procedure for a woman who has lost a breast due to breast cancer or other condition. The creation
of a new breast can dramatically improve your self-image, self confidence and quality of life.
