Breast Restoration after Pregnancy
March 22nd, 2011
Most of the women that come to me for consultations about breast surgery following pregnancy complain that their breast size or shape has changed. Physical changes may occur even in the absence of breast-feeding. Click on Documentary Film “Restoring Jennifer” at the top of the page to see the personal story of a young woman’s journey to restore her figure.
Patients often report that there is reduced fullness on the top of their breasts, just above the nipple, along with a general change in breast size. The decreased fullness may be interpreted as sagging or a loss of “perkiness.”
 The most common concern that I hear is the complaint of overall diminished breast size after pregnancy.
Augmentation mammoplasty or breast enlargement surgery is the primary procedure that is used to restore breasts to the size they were before pregnancy. According to the The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), about 312,000 breast enlargement surgeries were performed last year, making it the most requested cosmetic surgery. However, there are no specific statistics about how many women chose the surgery as a “Mommy Make-over.â€

Patient Comment: Janelle
March 7th, 2011
Hi, my name is Janelle and I had breast augmentation surgery almost 2 years ago now. I’m very pleased with the result. Most people don’t even know that I had the procedure done since they look so real. I have an extremely small scar and unless you look up close, nobody would even know it was there. I would highly recommend anybody considering having plastic surgery to go to Dr. Bashioum.
The staff at Dr. Bashioum’s office is so friendly and they actually remembered me each time that I came in. They made me feel so comfortable, which is very important. Thank you for the wonderful experience.
