Breast Surgery
In South Florida, Dr. David J. Levens offers a wide variety of plastic surgery procedures for the breasts. These operations are intended to enlarge, reshape, reposition or reconstruct a woman's breasts. You may want to consider one of these procedures if you are not satisfied with the size, shape or position of your breasts, or if you're about to undergo breast cancer surgery. Dr. Levens has been performing these procedures for South Florida women since 1989.
Breast AugmentationBreast augmentation is one of our most popular surgical procedures. Through the placement of saline or silicone filled implants, Dr. Levens can enlarge your breast size and improve your overall body proportions. Breast augmentation is often performed for women who have naturally small breasts or those who have seen their breasts change size after pregnancy. |
Breast ReductionBreast reduction is a surgical procedure that removes tissue from the breasts, decreasing their size and weight. The surgery is indicated for women who are bothered by very large breast size. They often experience pain and discomfort because of the excess weight. Breast reduction can reduce breast size and reshape the breasts for a more youthful appearance. |
Breast LiftMastopexy, or breast lift surgery, can raise and reshape sagging breasts. Breast droop is a common condition for women, especially after weight fluctuations and aging. Surgery is the only way to significantly address this concern. The breast lfit procedure works by tightening and removing the loose tissue, while elevating the nipple and areola to a new position. In some cases, Dr. Levens may combine the breast lift with breast augmentation. |
Breast ReconstructionAfter mastectomy or lumpectomy, a breast reconstruction can help restore a feminine appearance. The breast mound can be recreated using natural tissues, breast implants, or a combination of both. The surgery can be completed immediately after mastectomy or months later, depending on the patient's circumstances. Common techniques include tissue expansion, TRAM flap, and DIEP flap reconstruction. |
