What is breast surgery?

Breast surgery refers to surgical procedures designed to alter the shape, size, or position of the breasts. Depending on the objective, the procedure may involve increase volume, reduce size, lift loose tissue or rebuild the breast after a mastectomy or trauma.

For patients looking for raise, breast implants or fat grafts can create fuller and more contoured breasts. Those who struggle with discomfort caused by excessively large breasts can find relief through reduction surgery, which removes excess tissue and, at the same time, reshapes the breast to achieve better symmetry.

Each type of breast surgery requires a personalized approach, taking into account skin elasticity, tissue composition and general body proportions to achieve balanced and natural results.

Why consider breast surgery?

Breast surgery is recommended for people who experience:

  1. Loss of breast volume due to weight loss, pregnancy, or aging.
  2. Breast asymmetry, where one breast is significantly different in size or shape from the other.
  3. Saggy or stretched skin making the breasts appear deflated or saggy.
  4. Physical discomfort, such as back and neck pain, caused by breasts that are too large.
  5. Previous breast surgery complications, that require revision or correction.

During a individual consultation, Dr. Gaona evaluates breast anatomy and analyzes the best approach for each patient, ensuring personalized, proportionate and natural-looking results.

The Breast Reduction Procedure: Step by Step

1

Presurgical consultation and planning

Breast surgery begins with a detailed consultation to analyze goals, expectations and medical history. Dr. Gaona performs a comprehensive evaluation of breast anatomy, evaluating skin elasticity, tissue density and proportionality.
With this information, develop a personalized surgical plan, selecting the best technique and placement of the incision to achieve the desired result and minimize scarring.

2

Surgical process

The procedure is performed in general anesthesia in a fully equipped surgical center. The specific surgical approach varies depending on the type of breast surgery. For augmentation, implants are placed one way or another above or below the muscle, depending on the characteristics of the fabric. In breast lift or reduction, excess skin and tissue are carefully removed while reshaping and repositioning the breast to improved contour. The incisions are strategically placed to ensure minimum visibility.

3

Recovery and Healing

After surgery, patients usually experience mild swelling and discomfort, which gradually subside within a few weeks. A compression garment is often recommended to support healing and maintain breast position. While normal activities may resume within 4 to 6 weeks, final results take several months as tissues take on their new shape. Proper aftercare, scar management, and follow-up visits are essential for achieving optimal and lasting results.

FAQs

What's the difference between a breast augmentation and a breast lift?

Breast augmentation focuses on increasing breast size using implants or fat grafts, ideal for patients looking for more volume. A breast lift (mastopexy) addresses sagging by removing excess skin and repositioning tissue and nipples, restoring a youthful shape without adding volume. Some patients combine both procedures to achieve thicker, lifted breasts. Dr. Jennifer Gaona evaluates your anatomy during a consultation to recommend the best approach.

How long does recovery take after a breast augmentation or a lift?

Recovery varies depending on the procedure. In the case of augmentation, most patients resume light activities after 5 to 7 days and fully recover in 4 to 6 weeks. A breast lift usually requires 1 to 2 weeks of rest, and strenuous activities are avoided for 4 to 6 weeks. Swelling and bruising gradually go away, and Dr. Gaona provides personalized aftercare instructions, including wearing a surgical bra and attending follow-up visits to monitor healing.

Can breast lift or reduction affect breastfeeding?

While most techniques preserve the galactophore ducts, there is a small risk of altered nipple sensitivity or milk production. Dr. Gaona uses incision patterns that minimize glandular tissue alteration, such as a lollipop or an anchor lift. During consultations, discuss your family's future plans to design a surgical approach that balances aesthetic goals with functional preservation.

What are the risks of breast surgery?

Common risks include temporary swelling, bruising, or discomfort. Rare complications (< 2%) include infection, scarring, or implant rupture. Dr. Gaona mitigates risks through detailed preoperative planning, advanced surgical techniques and post-operative care. Your clinic meets international safety standards, including the services of board-certified anesthesiologists and nursing support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
