1.

ENLARGEMENT (Augmentation Mammoplasty):
This involves increasing the size of the breast through implants. A small incision is made in either the fold of the breast, in the armpit, or at the edge of the nipple areola complex. SSCS utilizes both silicone and saline breast implants

2.

REDUCTION (Reduction Mammoplasty):
This procedure is most-often performed on women with disproportionately large breasts to relieve physical discomforts such as backaches and irritation at the crease of the breasts, and can serve to make physical activity easier and more comfortable. It can also be done for purely aesthetic reasons. This procedure, the effects of which are permanent, can be beneficial at any age; however, it's best performed after breasts are fully developed. This procedure is not recommended for women who want to breastfeed, since ducts leading to and from the nipple may need to be severed.

3.

RECONSTRUCTION:
Exciting new medical advances have made it possible to create a breast -- using a woman's own body tissue, not implants -- that comes remarkably close in matching the form and appearance of a natural one. In fact, reconstruction is now possible immediately following a mastectomy, so that a woman can wake up with a breast mound already in place, and be spared the anguish of seeing herself with a breast missing.

4.

LIFT (Mastopexy):
This procedure, the virtual equivalent of a facelift, is performed to give sagging breasts a more uplifted, youthful appearance.
