Breast surgery is often about alignment: between body, comfort, lifestyle, and personal preference. Dr. Terry Restivo offers a full spectrum of breast procedures guided by careful evaluation, anatomical understanding, and a commitment to natural-looking results.

Breast Procedures Offered
Breast Augmentation
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation focuses on enhancing volume and shape in a way that feels proportional to the body. Planning considers anatomy, lifestyle, and long-term comfort, allowing results to look natural and integrated rather than exaggerated.
Breast Lift
Breast Lift
A breast lift, or mastopexy, addresses changes in position and shape caused by aging, pregnancy, or weight fluctuations. The procedure reshapes and elevates the breasts without relying on added volume, restoring balance and contour while maintaining a natural appearance.
Breast Reduction
Breast Reduction
Breast reduction is designed to relieve physical discomfort and improve body proportion. By reducing excess tissue and reshaping the breasts, the procedure can ease strain on the neck, shoulders, and back while creating a more balanced silhouette.
Breast Reconstruction
Breast Reconstruction
Breast reconstruction supports restoration after mastectomy, lumpectomy, or trauma. Each plan is individualized, focusing on symmetry, comfort, and long-term outcomes while respecting the patient’s medical history and personal goals.
Breast Implant Removal
Breast Implant Removal
Breast implant removal is considered by patients experiencing discomfort, aesthetic concerns, or changes in preference. The procedure focuses on safely removing implants while addressing breast shape and tissue support as needed.

Frequently Asked Questions Breast Surgery
How do patients usually decide which breast procedure is right for them?
Most patients start with a concern rather than a procedure name. Consultations focus on understanding comfort, body proportion, and goals, then clarifying which surgical option or combination best addresses those priorities.
Is breast surgery only about appearance, or can it improve comfort, too?
Many breast procedures address both appearance and physical comfort. Reduction, lift, or implant-related surgeries often relieve strain, improve posture, or make daily activities more comfortable.
What if my goals have changed since a previous breast surgery?
It’s common for preferences to evolve over time. Dr. Restivo regularly works with patients seeking revision, removal, or replacement based on changes in lifestyle, comfort, or aesthetic priorities.
Do I need to know whether I want implants before scheduling a consultation?
No. Consultations are meant to explore options, not finalize decisions. Implant use, size, or alternatives are discussed based on anatomy, goals, and long-term considerations.
How are breast surgery scars typically managed?
Scar placement and healing are considered during planning. Incisions are designed to support breast shape while minimizing visibility, and healing guidance is provided to support optimal scar maturation.
Can breast surgery be combined with other procedures?
Breast procedures may be combined with lifts, implant changes, or body contouring when appropriate. These decisions are based on safety, recovery considerations, and overall balance.
How much recovery time should I plan for breast surgery?
Recovery varies by procedure and individual healing. Dr. Restivo discusses realistic downtime, activity limitations, and support needs so patients can plan comfortably and confidently.
Is breast reconstruction approached differently than cosmetic surgery?
Yes. Reconstruction is planned with medical history, symmetry, and long-term comfort in mind. Care is coordinated thoughtfully to support both physical and emotional recovery.
What role does long-term planning play in breast surgery decisions?
Breast surgery is planned with future changes in mind, including aging, weight fluctuations, and lifestyle. The goal is results that continue to feel appropriate over time.
What if I’m unsure whether surgery is the right step right now?
Uncertainty is common. Consultations are designed to provide clarity and information, even if surgery is not immediate. Many patients use them to plan thoughtfully without pressure.
