Rejuvenate Your body With Breast Surgery

Breast surgery can be a sensitive topic of discussion for many women, which is why it is so important to be able to completely trust your doctor. Dr. Dennis Hurwitz and Dr Siamak Agha provide their patients with a variety of breast surgery techniques that may be fully customized to meet individual needs. They have been performing plastic surgery for nearly thirty years and have perfected their skills over this time. Your safety and happiness are his primary concerns. So, Dr. Hurwitz and Dr Agha take their time to meet with each patient in a comprehensive consultation to determine your specific concerns, needs and, ultimately, your real desires.

Breast Augmentation

Women who desire to increase the size of their bust to create a more feminine silhouette choose breast augmentation, or breast implant surgery. Age, pregnancy, and dramatic weight loss can all decrease the elasticity and voluptuousness of the breasts. The resulting sagging of the breasts can be disheartening to anyone wanting to look their best. Dr. Hurwitz and Dr Agha take genuine pride in their ability to create a fresher, more youthful breast contour for patients. Such abilities have made them one of the most sought-after plastic surgeons in our region.

Dr. Hurwitz and Dr Agha will thoroughly discuss your options when considering the location of incisions, size of implants, and the exact placement of implants. Such attention to detail will ensure that you are fully satisfied with the end result. In general, Dr. Hurwitz and Dr Agha will make an incision under the breast fold and around the nipple. They will then meticulously place an implant of your choosing under the breast tissue. Sutures are inserted to close the incisions and the doctor applies a compressive dressing to assist with recovery.

Breast Lift

Breast lift is a wonderful procedure that can dramatically rejuvenate a sagging or aging breast envelope. Dr. Hurwitz and Dr Agha have mastered the subtle method of breast lift, which is used to sculpt a new, shapely bust line. The procedure, which generally takes two or more hours, begins by carefully removing excess skin from around the nipple areola complex and the lower portion of the breast near the breast fold. After this is completed, the doctor will then gather the skin envelope to a close to create a tighter, smoother contour! Once the breast lift procedure is complete, a compressive dressing is applied for recovery. Dr. Hurwitz and Dr Agha treat every patient with the individual attention required to create the most natural looking and feeling bust. Every body is unique from everyone else’s. As a result, Dr. Hurwitz and Dr Agha treat each patient with the individual attention necessary to determine the appropriate technique for shaping your figure in the most flattering sense.

Breast Reduction

There are many reasons to consider breast reduction. Breasts that are too large can cause back pain and neck pain, hinder an active lifestyle, and for some women, be slightly embarrassing. If this is the case, then breast reduction can free your body of an uncomfortable weight, therefore allowing you to feel confident and able to do the activities you enjoy.

As with any procedure Dr. Hurwitz or Dr. Agha performs, they will customize the breast reduction technique to meet your specific needs. That being said, the procedure generally entails making incisions around the nipple areola complex, which extend downward and follow the natural curve of the crease under the breast. At this point, excess tissue and skin are removed to shape your breast into the designated ideal silhouette. The nipple areola complex will then be repositioned into a natural position. After inserting sutures, a compressive dressing is positioned to support the breasts during the initial recovery.

Scarless (transumbilical Breast Augmentation)

The Hurwitz Center for Plastic Surgery is pleased to offer scarless breast augmentation at its Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania practice. A procedure known as transumbilical breast augmentation (TUBA) is performed by Dr. Siamak Agha, who was trained by Dr. Gerald Johnson, the surgeon who pioneered the procedure in 1991.

Instead of the tradition entry points around the nipple-areola complex, in the fold under the breast, or in the armpit, TUBA uses the navel as the entry point for the placement of breast implants. The scar required for the procedure is hidden in the one scar everyone already has, so there is no need to create new scars in the quest for an improved bust contour.

Transumbilical breast augmentation is an endoscopic procedure, which means Dr. Agha first inserts a tiny fiber optic camera through the belly button to guide his placement of the implants. After the endoscope is in place, a special inflator is inserted and used to create a pocket under the tissue. When this has been withdrawn, an empty implant is placed, and then filled with saline solution to the correct volume. Both implants and all instruments are inserting through the same incision. Combining the scarless TUBA procedure with Dr. Agha's skill in producing a natural looking breast profile means complete satisfaction with your outcome.

To explain transumbilical breast augmentation in greater detail, our Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania cosmetic surgery center has devoted a separate website to this remarkable procedure. Please visit www.transumbilicalbreastaug.com to learn more about scarless breast augmentation.
