Reductive Breast Augmentation in La Jolla / San Diego

The term "reductive augmentation" is applied to a situation in which a breast reduction is performed in conjunction with breast augmentation. During this surgery, Dr. Chasan removes the extra tissue so the volume can be replaced by implants. This procedure results in a smaller breast with more attractive, longer-lasting fullness.

Historically, most types of breast reduction procedures are prone to bottoming out and lack superior pole fullness. To address this problem, Dr. Chasan removes additional breast tissue and replaces it with silicone breast implants. For La Jolla and San Diego breast reduction patients who desire smaller breasts and also want superior fullness (rounder breasts), reductive augmentation will provide the best possible results. The reductive augmentation procedure takes approximately four hours and is performed on an outpatient basis. Most of our La Jolla and San Diego reductive breast augmentation patients are up and about within three to four days after surgery.
