Done Breastfeeding? Let's Talk About Breast Reconstruction

Congratulations on completing your breastfeeding journey! Now that this chapter has come to an end, you might find yourself contemplating the changes your breasts have undergone.

Whether it's a loss of volume, changes in shape, or concerns about symmetry, it's normal to consider your options for breast surgery.

Well, good news: you have lots of options! From breast lifts to augmentations, there are various surgical options available — all of which are available here in Southlake, Texas.

Let’s talk about your goals

Before you can choose a specific procedure, be sure to take some time to reflect on your goals and concerns. Ask yourself the following questions:

Am I looking to restore lost volume?
Achieve better symmetry?
Do I want to address sagging or drooping?
Are my breasts too big or too heavy?

During your consultation, Dr. Madni reviews your aesthetic goals and suggests the right procedure (or combination of procedures) to help you reach those goals.

Explore your options

Once you’ve identified your goals, Dr. Madni and our team review all of your available options, including:

Breast lift

If you've noticed sagging or drooping breasts after breastfeeding, a breast lift (mastopexy) can be your solution. This procedure lifts and reshapes your breasts. Dr. Madni expertly removes excess skin and tissue to restore a more youthful contour.

With a breast lift, you can regain confidence in your appearance and enjoy firmer, perkier breasts that reflect your post-breastfeeding body.

Note: breast lifts can’t change the size of your breasts. If you’d like to enhance your breast size, you might consider a lift and augmentation.

Breast augmentation

After breastfeeding, you may find that your breasts have lost volume. Breast augmentation can help restore lost volume, correct asymmetry, or enhance your overall breast shape.

A dual plane breast augmentation — a technique in which Dr. Madni places implants partially behind your chest muscle and partially behind your breast tissue — can help you feel more confident and comfortable in your post-breastfeeding body.

A dual plane breast augmentation is available with both saline and silicone implants.

Dr. Madni helps you select the size and type of implant that’s best for you.

Breast reduction

If you're experiencing discomfort from overly large breasts post-breastfeeding, breast reduction can help reduce breast size and alleviate associated physical discomfort such as back, neck, and shoulder pain.

Combining procedures for a custom look

In many cases, you may benefit from multiple procedures. For example, you may want to lift up sagging breasts with a breast lift and add more volume with an augmentation. Breast surgery after breastfeeding is all about customizing your look.

If you’re interested in a total body makeover, your breast surgery may just be the tip of the iceberg. Dr. Madni offers Mommy Makeover packages to help you reclaim your pre-pregnancy body again. Mommy Makeovers can include breast surgery, tummy tucks, arm lifts, and thigh lifts.
