Breast Surgery Denver

Breast Surgeon in Denver

The operation is done as a day-patient/outpatient. While several types of anesthetic are possible, Dr. Grossman recommends a general anesthetic (complete sleep) which is administered by a physician anesthesiologist.

The basic principle of this surgery is the placement of an implant behind the natural breast in order to lift and fill it out. Besides being behind the breast tissue itself, the implant will be placed either on top of or beneath the pectoral muscle of the chest. Dr. Grossman usually prefers placement beneath the pectoral. Which option is selected depends on a variety of circumstances.

To place the implant, a "pocket" or space is created through an incision. Commonly used incision locations are:

In the fold beneath the breast
At the edge of the areola
In the armpit

Dr. Grossman prefers either the areola or the fold beneath the breast for incisions.
