Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation, also known as augmentation mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure to increase the size and enhance the shape of the breasts. It is a popular choice for individuals seeking to increase breast volume, improve symmetry, or restore fullness lost due to factors like pregnancy, weight loss, or aging. During this procedure, breast implants or fat grafting are used to achieve the desired breast size and contour. Breast augmentation can provide a boost in self-esteem and body confidence, helping individuals feel more comfortable and satisfied with their appearance.

Breast Implant Removal
Breast implant removal, also known as explant surgery, is a procedure to remove saline or silicone breast implants. Sometimes, patients who previously had breast augmentation surgery decide they no longer want their implants. Whether for medical, lifestyle, or aesthetic reasons, breast implant removal can restore confidence and relieve discomfort.

Breast Implants
Dr. Hartline offers a range of breast implant options for patients seeking breast augmentation, breast lift with implants, or breast reconstruction with implants. Breast implants can be silicone or saline and are available in different shapes to suit different needs and desired results. Dr. Hartline will discuss your options and your goals in order to help you choose the best breast implants for your procedure.
Breast Lift (Mastopexy)
A breast lift, or mastopexy, is a surgical procedure designed to improve the appearance of sagging breasts. Over time, factors like pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, and aging can lead to a loss of breast firmness and an undesirable drooping appearance. This procedure can elevate and reshape the breasts, repositioning the nipple-areola complex to a more youthful and aesthetically pleasing position.
Breast Lift with Implants
Breast lift with implants, also called mastopexy-augmentation, is a comprehensive surgical procedure designed to rejuvenate and enhance the breasts’ appearance. This dual procedure is particularly beneficial for those looking to elevate sagging breasts while also increasing their size. It is an ideal choice for individuals who have experienced changes in breast shape or volume due to factors like pregnancy, weight loss, or natural aging. During the procedure, implants are inserted to enhance breast size, and excess skin is removed to lift and reshape the breasts, achieving a more youthful and proportionate contour.

Breast Revision
Breast revision surgery aims to address and correct complications or unwanted cosmetic issues that have resulted from previous breast surgeries. A breast revision procedure can correct asymmetry, adjust size, or correct issues such as capsular contracture or implant rupture. Each breast revision procedure is highly customized. The goal of breast revision surgery is to restore satisfaction and confidence, as well as physical health and comfort.

Male Breast Reduction (Gynecomastia)
Gynecomastia is a condition in which males have enlarged or overdeveloped breast tissue. Gynecomastia surgery, or male breast reduction, is a procedure to remove excess glandular tissue and fat to restore a flatter, more masculine-looking chest. This procedure can improve physical comfort, reduce any discomfort or pain caused by the excess breast tissue, and restore confidence.
