About this service
What Is Chest & Breast Surgery?
Chest and breast surgery includes a range of medical and surgical procedures intended to address specific concerns or improve the appearance of the chest and breasts, depending on individual needs.
Depending on the available services and medical assessment, options may include:
- Breast augmentation: A surgical procedure that may increase breast volume and improve proportions.
- Breast reduction: A procedure that may reduce breast size when medically appropriate.
- Breast lift: A procedure intended to improve breast position and address sagging.
- Gynecomastia surgery: Procedures that may help reduce prominent breast tissue in men following an appropriate assessment.
- Other chest and breast procedures: Additional options may be considered according to the diagnosis and individual needs.
Each procedure has different indications, potential risks, recovery requirements, and expected outcomes. Not every procedure is suitable for every individual.
What Are the Goals of Chest & Breast Surgery?
Depending on the procedure and individual needs, treatment goals may include:
- Improving chest or breast proportions.
- Addressing certain cases of breast sagging or asymmetry.
- Reducing breast size when appropriate.
- Assessing and treating selected cases of gynecomastia in men.
- Exploring treatment options based on individual goals and expectations.
The appropriate approach depends on a medical assessment and a discussion of potential benefits, risks, and alternatives.
Who May Be Suitable for Chest & Breast Surgery?
Suitability depends on overall health, medical history, the nature of the concern, and expectations regarding treatment.
A consultation may be helpful for people who wish to discuss changes in breast shape or size, sagging, or prominent breast tissue in men. Any new breast lump, unusual pain, or unexplained change should be medically assessed before considering a cosmetic procedure.
A qualified medical professional will determine whether surgery is appropriate and whether any additional examinations are needed.
