A mastopexy, or “breast lift” is a surgical procedure to raise and reshape sagging breasts. Factors such as pregnancy, nursing and the force of gravity take their toll on a woman’s breasts. As the skin loses its elasticity, the breasts will often lose their shape and firmness and begin to sag.

Silicone gel implants are made of a gel filler that acts as a solid unit rather than a liquid. The gel holds together uniformly, while retaining the natural “give” that resembles actual breast tissue.

Gel-filled breast implants use gel that is cohesive, safe and aesthetically pleasing.

Silicone Gel-Filled Implants are offered in either a round style gel implant or a contour (anatomic) shaped gel implant.   See if silicone breast implants are right for you!

We receive many questions about placement of breast implants from our patients.
When a patient has breast augmentation surgery, the breast implant can either be placed partially under the pectoralis major muscle (submuscular) or on top of the muscle and under the breast gland (subglandular).
Let Dr. Niessen help you decide which placement would be best for you.

Lipolysis injections or Lipodissolve must not be regarded as a new miracle drug for weight reduction. When it comes to fat deposits which can not be eliminated by diet or exercise, Lipodissolve initiates a process during which fat is melted away and then eliminated from the body via the usual metabolic process.
See if Lipodissolve is right for you.

Many women with breast implants have successfully breast fed their babies.  A peri-areolar incision is more likely to affect this ability.  Some women experience mastitis, inflammation of the breast ducts, during this time, which can also cause capsular contracture.  Taking antibiotics when symptoms first appear may minimize the potential of this problem.

After the holidays, many people make a New Year’s resolution to get into better shape, either for their self-esteem or health reasons.   Many are trying to rid themselves of the extra pounds they put on, while celebrating the holidays.  We can help with this.

 Despite good health and a reasonable level of exercise, some people may still have a body with disproportionate contours due to localized fat deposits. These areas can be treated with either liposuction orLipodissolve.

Meet with Dr. Niessen to discuss which procedure would be best for you.

Dr. Niessen asks that women wait 2 months before wearing an under wire bra, after having had either breast implant or breast lift surgery. Your body is forming scar tissue around the breast implant for this period.   During this time, the pressure from the under wire bra could cause irritation to your incision, and we suggest women wear a sports bra during their recovery time.

We offer breast implants that are manufactured by Mentor Canada.  Your decision to use Mentor breast implants for your breast augmentation is a personal, long-term decision.  Because breast implants may not last your entire lifetime, Mentor supports your decision by strongly standing behind their Lifetime Product Replacement Policy.  Should you have a problem with your breast implant, Mentor will replace it free of charge.
