Breast reductions are done to reduce the size of larger, pendulous breasts. Many women with this condition suffer from neck and back pain along with skeletal deformities from the heavy weight of the breasts. This procedure involves the surgical removal of fat, glandular tissue and skin. Along with reducing the size of the breasts, Dr. Stephens can reduce the size of the areola, the dark are around the nipple. The improved breast shape and size is a tremendous benefit for improving exercise, body image and self-confidence.
Dr. Stephens is an expert in minimal scar and small incision techniques offering a variety of breast lift procedures to meet the individual needs of each patient. From a small hidden incision around the areola (the dark area around the nipple) to a complete "anchor" lift (similar to that of a traditional breast reduction), Dr. Stephens performs the procedure that will leave the least amount of scarring, and provide the best shape for your breast.

A breast lift procedure will reshape the breasts when nature and gravity have caused the breasts to sag or droop. Pregnancy, nursing, significant weight loss and poor elasticity are the main contributors to loss of firmness and shape. Breast lift can be combined with breast implants to improve the volume along with a rejuvenated shape. Breasts with ample natural volume may benefit from the breast lift procedure alone.
Dr. Stephens is an expert in minimal scar and small incision techniques offering a variety of breast lift procedures to meet the individual needs of each patient. From a small hidden incision around the areola (the dark area around the nipple) to a complete "anchor" lift (similar to that of a traditional breast reduction), Dr. Stephens performs the procedure that will leave the least amount of scarring, and provide the best shape for your breast.
