What is Reductive Augmentation of the Breast?
The term “Reductive Augmentation” was created by San Diego Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Paul Chasan. It applies 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 upper pole fullness.
