BREAST PROCEDURES
BREAST AUGMENTATION 
Breast Augmentation is one of the most commonly performed cosmetic procedures at Plastic Surgeons of Northern Arizona. Designed to enhance the size and shape of the breasts, augmentation entails the placement of an implant through an incision typically located under the crease of the breast. The size and type of implant will be decided by you after a thorough discussion with your surgeon during consultation. The procedure usually takes 60-90 minutes with patients often returning to normal activity in several days. Bruising and swelling usually resolved within one to two weeks.
The surgery is performed on an outpatient basis at Northern Arizona SurgiCenter, our privately owned, fully licensed, certified, and AAAHC-accredited ambulatory surgery center located in the lower level of the Plastic Surgeons of Northern Arizona building in Flagstaff. Recovery time depends on the patient, but most are driving within four to five days with a full recovery in about three weeks.

BREAST REDUCTION 
Women with very large breasts may suffer from a wide range of physical problems including back and neck pain, skin irritation, shoulder grooving and difficulty finding properly fitting clothes or taking part in certain activities. Breast reduction surgery can alleviate these issues by removing excess fat and skin to make the breast smaller, firmer, and lighter. Depending on the amount of tissue removed, health insurance companies may help cover this procedure. Recovery time varies, but most patients return to normal, low-stress activity within four to five days with bruising and swelling resolving over two-to three weeks. This surgery is performed on an outpatient basis at Northern Arizona SurgiCenter, our fully licensed and AAAHC-accredited ambulatory surgery center located in the lower level of the Plastic Surgeons of Northern Arizona building in Flagstaff.

BREAST LIFT (MASTOPEXY) 
A variety of factors may lead to the breasts appearing “deflated” and “saggy”. Breast lift surgery, or mastopexy, involves returning the breasts to a more youthful anatomic position, tightening the skin to restore “perkiness” and sometimes placing an implant to replace lost volume. Return to normal activities post op usually within 6 weeks. Mastopexies are performed on an outpatient basis at Northern Arizona SurgiCenter, our fully licensed and AAAHC-accredited ambulatory surgery center located in the lower level of the Plastic Surgeons of Northern Arizona building in Flagstaff.

BREAST RECONSTRUCTION 
The loss of a breast due to cancer can be very traumatizing both physically and emotionally. Thankfully, a variety of techniques are available to recreate the breast. From implant-based procedures to surgery that utilizes your body’s own tissues, the result is a natural looking breast that can help restore your appearance, as well as positively impact your body image and self-esteem. Recovery time for breast reconstruction varies, and is dependent on the technique used.
