What is Breast Surgery?
Breast surgery is a cosmetic surgery performed on the breasts. There are several types of procedures that are available at SurgiCare Arts & Aesthetics in Atlanta:
Breast Augmentation:
Breast surgery encompasses procedures that improve the size, shape, and positioning of the breasts. The procedures are designed for both men and women. They are fully FDA-approved.
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, implants are the most popular breast surgery in the U.S. The implant technology develops rapidly, now offering more affordable and more realistic looking implant options. Additionally, the emergence of breast fat transfer as an alternative option for breast augmentation provides a completely different experience. It’s a perfect solution for people who prefer to enhance their breasts while staying implant-free.

Frequently asked questions
Who Is an Ideal Candidate for Breast Surgery?
In general, ideal candidates for breast surgery are women and men who have good mental and physical health and seek solutions for their breast concerns. However, pregnancy, breastfeeding or breast cancer are the factors that limit breast surgery applications.
What Happens During a Consultation?
Before the consultation, we advise you to think about what results you would like to see ideally. You may also want to make note of celebrities, public figures or models that have your ideal breast type. This information is quite valuable during your consultation and helps us conduct a meaningful conversation about your desires and goals.
During the consultation, Dr. Angelina Postoev will review your current and previous medical records and discuss reasonable goals. The factors that are considered are medical conditions, allergies, alcohol or tobacco use, and current medications or supplements taken.
You can ask any questions and discuss all breast surgery options. You should also expect your breast to be examined and measured by the doctor.
What Are the Benefits of the Procedure?
Breast surgery delivers physical and emotional benefits. It helps your breasts look aesthetically pleasing. Besides, additional benefits of breast surgery include:
- Improved breast appearance;
- Enhanced body proportions;
- Clothing fits better;
- Satisfaction and confidence;
- Boost of self-esteem.
What Should I Expect from My Procedure?
Breast surgery is performed under general anesthesia, which means that you will be completely asleep and feel nothing. It lasts up to 3 hours, depending on the procedure you opted in for. Generally, you will be able to return home on the same day. The step-by-step process varies by the type of the procedure and by everyone’s individual circumstances.
Do You Offer Third Nipple Removal?
While having a third nipple is a fairly common occurrence and poses no threat to an individual’s health, it may cause someone to be self-conscious in certain situations. The good news is that we can aesthetically address the look of an extra nipple during a fairly simple ‘in-office” procedure that offers a very minimal recovery process.
Is There A Way To Reduce Or Eliminate “Puffy Nipples” On A Man?
Yes, there are ways to reduce or eliminate “puffy nipples” in men, which may be caused by a medical condition known as gynecomastia or may be a result of excess fat deposits. Regardless of the case, SurgiCare Arts & Aesthetics can correct the issue through liposuction or a surgical procedure, depending on the severity of the correction needed. Male nipple reduction can generally be done during a 30-minute in-office procedure and has a quick recovery.
How Long Do the Results Last?
Breast surgery ensures long-lasting results. However, some factors may affect the final results, such as pregnancy, breastfeeding, aging, genetics or lifestyle.
Recovery Time
Recovery time depends on the type of breast surgery, the downtime can vary, too. Most breast surgeries have the downtime of 3-5 days. Therefore, patients should follow Dr. Angelina’s recommendations for quicker recovery.
Side Effects of Breast Surgery
Some of the common side effects of breast surgery like discomfort, soreness, bruising, swelling, numbness, and scarring may occasionally emerge. Therefore, to reduce the risks, and for the optimal recovery period, you will get detailed post-op recommendations from Dr. Angelina.
