Mammoplasty is the general term for breast aesthetic surgeries. These operations, which directly affect both the physical appearance and psychological well-being of women, have become much safer, more comfortable, and more successful with the advancement of modern medicine.
In this blog post, we will answer many common questions such as what mammoplasty is, who it is suitable for, what its types are, and how the surgical process works. We will also highlight Op. Dr. Gökhan Semerci’s expertise, known for his patient-specific approach and natural-looking results in mammoplasty procedures.
What Is Mammoplasty?
Mammoplasty is commonly known as “breast aesthetics.” These procedures aim to enlarge, reduce, or lift the breast tissue. Each surgery is personalized according to individual needs and aesthetic expectations.
Types of Mammoplasty
1. Breast Augmentation (Augmentation Mammoplasty)
This procedure is performed on women who are unhappy with the small size of their breasts. It involves the use of silicone breast implants. Op. Dr. Gökhan Semerci determines the most appropriate implant type and size based on the patient’s body structure, achieving both natural and aesthetic results.
Benefits:
-
Fuller and more feminine appearance
-
Symmetrical breast structure
-
Increased self-confidence and more freedom in clothing choices
2. Breast Reduction (Reduction Mammoplasty)
Overly large breasts can cause not only aesthetic concerns but also physical problems such as back and neck pain, shoulder drooping, and restricted physical movement. Breast reduction surgery eliminates these issues while also providing an ideal breast shape.
Dr. Gökhan Semerci performs the surgical removal of breast tissue with attention to aesthetic lines, offering both functional and cosmetic satisfaction.
3. Breast Lift (Mastopexy)
Breasts that sag due to aging, gravity, or breastfeeding can be reshaped with a breast lift. Dr. Semerci’s expert mastopexy techniques restore a youthful appearance to sagging and deflated breasts. If necessary, the procedure can be combined with implants to provide both volume and lift.
