What Is Breast Surgery?

Breast surgery is a blanket term for many different cosmetic procedures designed to produce a variety of different results, from reshaping to resizing your breasts. This is meant to either enlarge breasts, lift breasts, a combination of the two, or reduce breast size. During your consultation for Breast Surgery Miami plastic surgeon Dr. Rodríguez-Feliz will evaluate your needs and cosmetic concerns. He will then customize a plan for your procedure.

Should I Get Breast Surgery?

Many women find they are unhappy with their breasts for a variety of reasons. Some women find their breasts have changed after childbirth, after changes in weight, or from hormonal shifts. Some women are simply unhappy with the look of their breasts as they age, while others simply wish to improve their overall look. Other times, women have medical reasons, such as uneven breast sizes. In this case, breast surgery can make your breasts more symmetrical.

What to Expect During Breast Surgery?

Your specific surgery time depends on what procedure you have done and if it’s combined with any other procedures, although breast surgery is usually considered outpatient surgery. Generally speaking, breast surgery can take up to two hours, and you will be under IV sedation for the entire duration. This is considered outpatient surgery. You’ll then recover in Dr. Rodríguez-Feliz’s accredited surgical facility while you come out of sedation and monitored to make sure there are no complications. Most patients return home within five hours after surgery.

Breast Surgery Procedures

Your procedure will involve incisions under your breasts, under your arms, or around the nipples. This will allow Dr. Rodríguez-Feliz to insert implants, lift your breasts, or remove fat and tissue. He uses an internal bra to improve support and lift. Dr. Rodríguez-Feliz combines Vaser Lipo and J-Plasma to take results to the next level. By contouring the lateral side of the breast he creates the flattering contours and projection sought by so many when wearing bikinis or other revealing clothing.

Breast Augmentation

This procedure is specifically meant to increase the size of your breast through implants. This is also known as augmentation mammoplasty.

Breast Lift

This procedure lifts your breasts by removing excess skin, which tightens the surrounding tissue as well. This is also known as mastopexy.

Breast Lift with Augmentation

This procedure is a combination of the above two. It increases your breast size with implants as well as lifts them through skin removal.

Breast Revision

In the case of large breasts, you may want to reduce the size of them due to discomfort (such as back pain) or to make them more proportionate to your body. This procedure removes extra tissue, fat, and skin from the breasts. It’s also known as reduction mammaplasty.

Breast Surgery FAQ

When should you get breast surgery?

Many women are unhappy with the shape and/or size of their breasts. This stems from a number of reasons, including differences in size/shape, loss of firmness or volume, the way they hang, or simply feeling as if they are not full enough. Breast surgery can restore your confidence in your body.

Is breast surgery painful?

There is likely to be some pain right after the surgery, which can be managed with pain medication. You will also feel sore and tender for up to three weeks.

How long does it take to recover?

This depends on the type of surgery you have and varies from person to person. Generally speaking, it can take up to six weeks to resume normal activities. You will need to take as many as two to three weeks off of work or other obligations. You will also need assistance with childcare (no heavy lifting), housework, and shopping. Avoid driving until a seatbelt is no longer painful.

Will you have scars?

Yes. Any time there is an incision, there will be scarring and scar tissue. It will look red or pink in color in the beginning. As it heals, this will change as it darkens and then flattens to blend in with your skin. It can take up to a year for it to fade and become less visible. Dr. Rodríguez-Feliz will work to ensure your incisions are placed to minimize their appearance even further.

How much does breast surgery cost?

Precise costs vary depending on which procedure you have done. As many breast surgeries are elective, they will likely need to be paid out of pocket. Fortunately, there are payment and financing options available when choosing to undergo aesthetic breast surgery with Dr. Rodríguez-Feliz.

Am I a Candidate for Breast Surgery?

Dr. Rodríguez-Feliz requires that any patient interested in undergoing breast surgery in Miami has a consultation before scheduling any procedures in order to establish their eligibility.
