Breast Surgery Before & After Results
What Is Breast Surgery?
Breast surgery encompasses any surgical procedure performed on the breasts for medical, functional, or cosmetic reasons. These procedures can alter the size, shape, position, or health of the breast tissue.
Breast surgery procedures are designed to enhance, lift, or reshape the breasts after pregnancy, breastfeeding, or weight changes. They also help diagnose or treat conditions, including breast cancer or other breast-related health concerns.
At Millennial Plastic Surgery, we provide a comprehensive range of breast plastic surgery procedures to enhance, restore, and refine your chest aesthetics. Each treatment plan is carefully planned to achieve natural-looking results that are beautifully balanced with your frame and align with your overall health and beauty goals.
Our Cosmetic Breast Surgery Helps You Achieve Your Desired Appearance & boost Your Self-Image
Why Do People Get Breast Surgery?
Most people associate breast surgery with cosmetic procedures that are aimed to enhance beauty and improve the size, shape, and overall contour of the breasts. These procedures are an excellent option for individuals seeking better proportions, breast volume, and improved self-confidence while achieving a harmonious, well-proportioned silhouette that complements their body.
However, breast surgery is also a significant part of cancer treatment. It removes cancerous tissue, prevents the spread of disease, and restores breast shape through reconstructive procedures.
Whether for cosmetic or health reasons, breast surgery helps patients feel confident and supported.
Breast cancer often requires that a lump be removed from a breast. Mastectomy is done as a precautionary procedure when there’s a threat of cancer or it’s spread so much that the safest route is to remove a whole breast or both breasts. While treatment is medically necessary, you also want to be treated by breast plastic surgeons who understand the need for aesthetically pleasing breasts.

The personal care and consideration I received is exceptional.
Is There an Ideal Breast Size?
There is no ideal or perfect breast size. Breasts naturally vary in shape, size, and firmness from person to person, serving both functional and aesthetic purposes.
Breasts are also a key part of the body image and sexual identity. Some women feel confident with small breasts, while others like large breasts. What feels ideal often depends on personal comfort, body proportions, and individual preferences.
The ideal breast size is one that:
- Provides you with the ultimate confidence in yourself
- Appeals to your sense of style and beauty
- Gets you noticed for your overall appeal
- Allows you to wear the clothes you prefer
- Projects the image that you see for yourself
What is considered ideal is mostly influenced by culture, media, and fashion trends. The standards often change over time and across different societies.
To help you achieve the perfect breast size and shape that that reflects your authentic self, Dr. Shokrian offers personalized breast surgery options that are tailored to your individual goals and aesthetic vision.
He focuses on your concerns and creates treatment plans that enhance your natural proportions, while prioritizing your safety and well-being.
Different Kinds of Breast Surgery
Various types of breast surgery address a variety of issues related to breast size, shape, and health.
A breast surgery can modify your breasts if they are:
- Too large
- Too small
- Uneven or lopsided
- Drooping or sagging
- Too fatty for men
- At risk due to an implant malfunction
- Affected by implant complications or rupture
- Causing discomfort due to previous surgery
- Part of your gender-affirming journey
Breast Procedures for Aesthetic Enhancement
A range of surgical options focus on achieving the appearance that expresses your ideal aesthetic goals.
Common procedures include:
- Breast reduction – It includes lipoplasty and is often performed with other procedures, such as chin liposuction, back liposuction, or a tummy tuck, to achieve more balanced and harmonious body contours.
- Fat transfer augmentation – It removes fat from one area, such as the hips, and transfers it to the breasts. It is ideal for women who want to increase their cup size.
- Saline or silicone implants – They are a popular choice for breast augmentation or reconstruction, offering options for size, shape, and a natural feel.
- Breast lift – It helps you regain a youthful appearance by raising and firming sagging breasts, improving shape, and contouring without necessarily changing breast size.
- Breast implant removal – It takes out previously placed implants, in case of implant rupture, leak, malposition, or desire to return to a natural breast appearance, due to health concerns, or complications related to implants.
- Breast implant revision or replacement – It involves correcting or updating existing implants, replacing them with new ones, or adjusting their position.
- Male liposuction – This procedure removes excess fat from specific areas of the male body to create a more defined and masculine appearance.
These breast procedures go beyond aesthetics. They are customized for each patient to address their personal needs and support overall well-being. Our expert cosmetic surgeons understand the need for visually pleasing breasts and help you make informed decisions.
Incredible service! Prompt, reliable, and always delivers high-quality results.
What Conditions Can Be Addressed Through Breast Surgery?
Not all breast surgery is intended for cosmetic reasons. In many cases, health professionals recommend it to treat medical or physical conditions that affect an individual’s health and quality of life.
Gynecomastia
Gynecomastia causes men to develop large breasts. It is often treated with chest liposuction or surgical removal of excess tissue to restore a flatter, more masculine chest contour.
Macromastia
Macromastia is the excessive, disproportionate enlargement of breast tissue compared to a person’s body frame. The weight of unusually large breasts can cause significant physical discomfort and functional issues.
Large breasts can result in:
- Back, neck, or shoulder pain
- Skin irritation or rashes under the breasts
- Posture problems
- Grooving from bra straps
- Difficulty exercising or being physically active
Breast reduction surgery can provide relief. It reduces the weight of the breasts, easing strain on the back, and makes daily activities more comfortable.
Non-invasive breast cancer
It refers to abnormal cells found in the breast that have not spread beyond the milk ducts. Surgery removes the affected area and prevents these cells from developing into invasive cancer.
Invasive breast cancer
Invasive breast cancer is treated by mastectomy, the removal of the entire breast, to prevent it from spreading. This procedure is followed by a surgery to place breast implants.
Breast cancer treatment may require removing a tumor or the entire breast. Afterwards, breast surgery can restore a natural appearance, and boost confidence, helping patients feel more like themselves after treatment.

What to Expect From Breast Surgery Procedures?
At Millennial Plastic Surgery, breast surgery treatment involves the following steps:
- Personalized consultation with your surgeon
You will meet with one of our expert surgeons, Dr. Elfar or Dr. Shokrian, to discuss your surgery goals and desired outcomes. They review your medical history, evaluate your overall health condition, and assess your functional or aesthetic concerns, helping you make informed decisions. - Customized treatment plan
Based on your consultation, your surgeon will develop a treatment plan tailored to your objectives, health, and lifestyle. They will guide you in selecting a procedure that best addresses your cosmetic or reconstructive needs. Each detail focuses on achieving the best possible results for your unique situation. - Surgical procedure
Our qualified and experienced plastic surgeons used the most advanced techniques to perform your procedures safely and effectively. Every step of the process is carefully planned and tailored to your individual anatomy for precision and optimal outcomes. - Recovery and follow-up
Many breast surgeries are performed on an outpatient basis. This means you can go home following a short period of recovery at your breast plastic surgeon’s practice. Extensive procedures, like mastectomy followed by implants, require a two-to-three-day hospital stay.Our dedicated team is with you every step of the process to ensure a smooth, uncomplicated recovery. You will be provided post-operative instructions, including guidance on caring for your incisions, managing pain, and gradually resuming daily activities.
Regular follow-up appointments are a key part of your healing. They allow your surgeon to monitor your post-surgical progress, address any challenges, and help you achieve a full and healthy recovery.
- Long-term outcomes
Our breast surgery procedures provide long-lasting results that continue to benefit over time. With proper care and follow-up, you can enjoy improved physical comfort, enhanced symmetry, and increased confidence.
Dr. Shokrian and his team provide the best support throughout your breast surgery journey. They offer expert guidance, personalized care, and compassionate attention to ensure a comfortable and positive experience, from consultation to recovery.
What Happens During a Breast Surgery Procedure?
Breast Surgery Recovery Time
Breast surgery recovery time varies, depending on the type of procedure performed, your overall well-being, and how closely you follow the post-operative instructions provided by your surgeon.
Less invasive procedures, such as a breast augmentation, have a short recovery period, while complex surgeries like breast reduction, mastectomy, or reconstruction may require a longer healing time.
Swelling, bruising, and discomfort are normal in the first few days but gradually improve. While most patients can return to light daily activities within a few days to one week, strenuous activities must be avoided for several weeks or until cleared by your doctor.
It may take several weeks or even months before you can see final results, as your body continues to heal and settle.

How Much Does a Breast Surgery Cost?
The cost of breast surgery depends on the purpose of the procedure and whether it is performed for cosmetic or reconstructive reasons.
Cosmetic procedures are considered elective and self-funded, while reconstructive surgeries, especially those related to medical conditions such as breast cancer, may be partially or fully covered, depending on your insurance plan and coverage benefits.
Some other factors that can influence the overall price include:
- Complexity of the surgery
- Surgeon’s expertise
- Anesthesia fee
- Facility fee
