The variation in the size of "normal breasts" may be the greatest
single biological variant among women. For the woman who, for
personal reasons, feels her breasts are too small or too large,
or not properly contoured, cosmetic breast surgery can be the
answer. It is also common for men to have overdeveloped breasts
(called gynecomastia)! Whether you are a man or woman, our practice
offers surgical procedures to enhance the shape and appearance
of your breasts.
Breast Augmentation
When breasts are too small to fill a shirt or blouse, they are
often described and perceived by women as deformed. Since 1962
about a million women have had breast augmentation, with 90% of
them pleased with the results. Very often, women are born with
asymmetric (different sized) breasts that can be corrected with
augmentation. Dr. Brown specializes in breast augmentation to
help his clients achieve their ideal appearance.

Breast Lift
As the years go by, almost every woman notices a gradual deterioration
in the size, shape and feel of her breasts. Gravity, pregnancy,
breast feeding, weight gain and loss all take their toll. Breasts
sag, soften and flatten out. The breasts may look and feel old
- but they need not. Dr. Brown can perform a breast lift to reshape,
rejuvenate, firm up, lift up and shape up sagging, shrinking atrophied
breasts. He can also reduce the size of an enlarged, stretched
areola (the dark pink area around the nipple).

Female Breast Reduction
When breasts develop to a very large volume, they become an encumbrance
for which reduction is the only treatment. Large breasts can cause
a range of physical problems such as shortness of breath and back
pain. Dr. Brown can remove breast tissue and then reshape the
smaller breast to achieve a comfortable and attractive size and
shape.

Male Breast Reduction
Male breast reduction corrects a medical condition known as male
gynecomastia. Gynecomastia, derived from the Greek words for "woman-like
breasts" affects an estimated 40% to 60% of men. Men of virtually
any age who are self-conscious about the appearance of overdeveloped
breasts are good candidates for this procedure. By removing excess
fatty or glandular tissue, Dr. Brown can help you obtain a chest
that is flatter, firmer, and better contoured.
