Breast Surgery

Cosmetic, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Specialist located in Centennial, CO

What is breast surgery?

Breast surgery is a procedure to improve the shape, fullness, and position of your breasts.

Estetica Nova offers comprehensive breast surgery services, including breast augmentation. Dr. Oswald customizes a surgical plan using implants to give your breasts a firmer, more youthful appearance.

When should I consider breast surgery?

You might be a candidate for the breast surgery services at Estetica Nova if you're unhappy with the size, shape, or fullness of your natural breasts.

Dr. Oswald may recommend breast surgery to:

  • Enhance breast fullness
  • Improve breast symmetry
  • Increase breast size
  • Reconstruct breasts after mastectomy

Before considering you for breast surgery, Dr. Oswald reviews your medical history and existing health. She also discusses your expectations for your surgery to ensure you’re satisfied with your results.

Breast augmentation surgery won’t fix saggy breasts. However, Dr. Oswald can discuss your options for a breast lift, a procedure to reposition your breasts higher on your chest. She may be able to perform a lift at the same time as your augmentation.

What can I expect during and after breast surgery?

During your breast surgery, Dr. Oswald makes incisions in the natural creases of your breasts to minimize scarring. She inserts the implant either under your pectoral muscle or directly behind your breast tissue and adjusts it to improve your breast size, shape, and symmetry.

After completing your surgery, Dr. Oswald closes your incisions with sutures. She wraps clean gauze and an elastic bandage around your breasts to minimize swelling. You can expect to spend time recovering from anesthesia before you can go home.

Plan to wear a support bra for several weeks. You also need to keep your incisions clean and dry to prevent infection. Any post-surgical pain you have generally resolves within five days, and Dr. Oswald can recommend medications to keep you comfortable.

While you can see the results of your breast surgery immediately, it can take several weeks for swelling to go away before you can see the full benefit of your augmentation. Dr. Oswald recommends when you need to come back to the office for a checkup to ensure your incisions are healing well.
