For Aesthetics and Health: Types of Breast Aesthetic Procedure

Today, breast aesthetics is not only preferred for cosmetic concerns but also for functional and psychological needs. The shape, size, and symmetry of a woman’s breasts directly affect her body image, self-confidence, clothing choices, and social life.

What Is Breast Aesthetics?

Breast aesthetics includes surgical procedures aimed at enlarging, reducing, lifting, or reshaping the breast tissue. The goal is to achieve an aesthetically pleasing appearance that is harmonious with the rest of the body, while also ensuring a natural breast form.

Since every woman’s anatomy and aesthetic expectations are different, a personalized approach is essential in breast aesthetic surgeries.

What Are the Types of Breast Aesthetic Procedures?

Breast aesthetic surgeries are generally categorized under the following main types:

1. Breast Augmentation (Augmentation Mammoplasty)

Who Is It For?

  • Women with naturally small breasts

  • Those who have lost breast volume after pregnancy or weight loss

  • Individuals who want to correct asymmetrical breast appearance

How Is It Performed?

Breast augmentation is typically performed by placing silicone implants under the breast, beneath the chest muscle, or under the muscle membrane. The choice depends on the patient’s chest anatomy, skin quality, and desired outcome.

Op. Dr. Gökhan Semerci uses only FDA-approved, biocompatible materials for implant selection to ensure safe and natural-looking results.

2. Breast Reduction (Reduction Mammoplasty)

Who Is It For?

  • Women experiencing back, shoulder, and neck pain due to large breasts

  • Individuals who find it difficult to engage in physical activities

  • Those suffering from skin irritation or rashes under the breasts

How Is It Performed?

Breast reduction involves removing excess breast tissue, fat, and skin. At the same time, the nipple is repositioned for both aesthetic and functional balance. This procedure not only enhances the appearance but also significantly improves quality of life.

Dr. Gökhan Semerci designs the surgical plan by considering the patient’s functional needs and daily lifestyle.

3. Breast Lift (Mastopexy)

Who Is It For?

  • Individuals who experience sagging due to aging, breastfeeding, or weight fluctuations

  • Women with sufficient breast volume but loss of firmness

  • Those who desire a more youthful and uplifted appearance

How Is It Performed?

During a breast lift, the nipple and surrounding tissue are reshaped, and excess skin may be removed. If there is significant volume loss, silicone implants can be used in combination.

Dr. Semerci focuses on achieving a natural result by restoring breast harmony with the rest of the body and enhancing the youthful contour.

4. Correction of Breast Asymmetry

Who Is It For?

  • Women with congenital or acquired breast asymmetry

  • Individuals whose breast symmetry has changed due to breastfeeding or previous surgeries

How Is It Performed?

Asymmetry correction may involve a combination of augmentation, reduction, or lift procedures. Different techniques may be applied to each breast based on the specific need.

Dr. Gökhan Semerci conducts a detailed analysis of the asymmetry and uses 3D simulations and visual planning tools to achieve balanced and natural-looking results.

5. Breast Reconstruction (Rebuilding)

Who Is It For?

  • Women who have undergone mastectomy due to breast cancer

  • Individuals born without breast tissue

How Is It Performed?

Reconstruction surgery may involve the use of the patient's own tissues (such as muscle and skin) or silicone implants to recreate the breast. These procedures are often planned in collaboration with oncologic surgeons.
