Breast Procedures

Restore Proportion. Refine Shape. Support Confidence.

The breasts change throughout life. Aging, pregnancy, weight fluctuation, genetics, and health conditions can all affect volume, position, symmetry, and skin elasticity.

For some women, these changes feel subtle. For others, they feel significant.

Breast surgery is not about dramatic transformation. It is about proportion, balance, and helping you feel comfortable in your own body.

Dr. Mark E. Chariker approaches breast procedures with surgical precision and a deep understanding of anatomy, symmetry, and natural contour.

Breast Augmentation

Enhance Volume. Improve Proportion. Restore Fullness.

Some women naturally have less breast volume than they desire. Others experience volume loss following pregnancy, weight changes, or aging.

Breast augmentation increases fullness and improves overall proportion through the placement of implants tailored to the individual’s anatomy and goals.

What Breast Augmentation Addresses

This procedure can improve:

• Loss of upper pole fullness
• Naturally small breast size
• Disproportion between breast and body frame
• Volume loss after pregnancy or weight change

Implant selection, size, shape, and placement are carefully chosen to complement your body structure.

Dr. Chariker’s Surgical Philosophy

The goal is natural proportion, not exaggeration.

Dr. Chariker evaluates chest width, skin quality, and overall body balance before recommending implant options. Decisions are based on anatomy and long-term stability.

Enhancement should look appropriate to your frame and feel balanced in clothing and movement.

Breast Asymmetry

Restore Balance. Improve Symmetry.

Mild asymmetry between breasts is common. In some cases, the difference in size or shape is significant enough to affect comfort and confidence.

Breast asymmetry correction is designed to improve balance and create a more cohesive appearance.

What Asymmetry Correction Addresses

This may involve:

• Size differences between breasts
• Shape variation
• Nipple position differences
• Developmental imbalance

Treatment plans are customized and may involve augmentation, reduction, lift, or a combination.

Dr. Chariker’s Surgical Philosophy

Symmetry is not about perfection. It is about harmony.

Dr. Chariker carefully evaluates proportions and develops a surgical plan that supports balanced contour without creating artificial uniformity.

Breast Lift (Mastopexy)

Restore Position. Improve Shape. Renew Contour.

Over time, pregnancy, aging, and gravity can cause the breasts to descend. Skin may stretch, and the nipple position may shift downward.

A breast lift restores a more youthful position and improves contour by reshaping existing tissue and removing excess skin.

What a Breast Lift Improves

This procedure addresses:

  • Sagging or drooping

  • Stretched skin

  • Downward nipple position

  • Loss of upper breast shape

Volume is not increased, but position and contour are restored.

Dr. Chariker’s Surgical Philosophy

Natural shape is the priority.

Dr. Chariker focuses on restoring supportive structure while preserving natural softness and proportion. Incision placement and scar management are carefully planned.

Breast Lift with Implants

Restore Position and Volume Together.

In some cases, both volume loss and descent are present. A lift alone improves position, but volume may still feel insufficient.

Combining a lift with implants restores fullness while repositioning the breast.

What This Combination Addresses

  • Volume loss and sagging

  • Upper pole deflation

  • Flattened contour

This approach provides both structural support and enhanced fullness.

Dr. Chariker’s Surgical Philosophy

Balance is critical when combining procedures.

Dr. Chariker carefully plans implant size and lift technique to maintain natural contour and long-term stability.

Breast Reconstruction

Restore Form. Support Healing. Move Forward.

Breast reconstruction may follow mastectomy or other medically necessary procedures.

  • Implant-based reconstruction

  • Tissue-based techniques

  • Staged procedures

Breast Reduction

Relieve Discomfort. Restore Proportion.

• Skin irritation
• Postural strain
• Disproportionate breast size

Every breast procedure begins with careful evaluation.

Body frame, skin quality, lifestyle, and long-term goals all influence surgical planning. Not every concern requires surgery, and not every procedure requires combination treatment.

Dr. Chariker’s objective is proportion, balance, and results that feel natural over time.
