Many women desire breast enhancement whether it is due to loss of volume from having children or from the natural aging process. Breast augmentation may be performed using saline or silicone breast implants. Both have their advantage. Dr. Steve Peterson also offers the post-op adjustable saline implant for those patients that may need additional adjustments due to their normal difference in size, or if they are unsure how large they want to be. A small dime size port goes under the skin and allows for adjustments for up to 6 months after surgery. The port is then removed using a local anesthetic and the same incision. Breast augmentation or augmentation mammoplasty is a procedure that is designed to increase your breast’s fullness and projection. This procedure can also be utilized to balance the symmetry between your breasts. The saline or silicone implant that will be used for this procedure will expand the breast area to give it a fuller size and improve its contour. A breast augmentation is not recommended for patients who are looking to correct and repair breasts that have drooped severely. If you are looking to improve your breast volume as well as reduce the appearance of sagging breasts, then a breast lift can be done in combination with a breast augmentation.

Facelift surgery, or a rhytidectomy, can restore a more youthful appearance by tightening the facial and neck muscles as well as the removal of any excess skin. In a single procedure, Dr. Peterson uses discrete incisions near your hairline to lift and tighten connective tissues giving you a more youthful and refreshed appearance.

This procedure has been revolutionized with the use of a post-op pain pump that continuously releases a local anesthetic in the area of surgery resulting in less need for pain medications and early return to activity. As most women may know, no amount of exercise or diet can remove the excess flabby skin in the abdominal area that is a result of the stretching due to pregnancy and drastic weight changes. A tummy tuck is the only effective way to remove the excess skin and achieve the hourglass figure that you have always dreamed of.
