Breast Augmentation
You can enjoy a fuller, rounder, and even bust, increased by a cup size or more compared to your preoperative bra size. Dr. Frederick Watkins has helped countless women in the McLean, VA, region feel better about their reflection with breast augmentation procedures carefully tailored to help each woman reach her goals.
Our medical team has put together a detailed Breast Augmentation FAQs page to help answer some of the most common questions we receive about implants. That said, please remember that each patient is different, so decisions such as whether or not to pursue surgery, which implant or incision type is best, and realistic expectations for final results will vary from woman to woman. Click on the Breast Augmentation page to read about the implant options available to you.
Breast Lift
A breast lift, or mastopexy, targets loose and sagging skin that causes the bustline to drop. It can be performed alone or in tandem with a breast augmentation or liposuction procedure to create a youthful and proportionate appearance within a single day of surgery.
Read the Breast Lift page to learn more about the surgical steps involved and the recovery plan.
Breast Reduction
Dr. Frederick Watkins and his team perform breast reductions for both cosmetic and medical reasons on a regular basis. For women with large breasts, issues of appearance are only the beginning of more serious medical problems that might include severe shoulder and back pain, rashes, breathing difficulty, and skeletal damage. A breast reduction removes excess fatty tissue and reshapes each breast for an evened result in proportion to the rest of the body. Please visit the Breast Reduction page to see details about the procedure and recovery process in our state-of-the-art outpatient care facility.
Male Breast Reduction
Men have many of the same goals for greater self-confidence and improved self-image. In recent years, we’ve helped more and more male and LGBTQ+ patients address facial and body concerns with both surgical and nonsurgical procedures. These cosmetic or medical changes, including breast reduction surgery, can have a significant positive impact on health, appearance, and comfort. The process is similar to female breast reduction, eliminating fatty tissue via liposuction while removing excess skin on the abdomen to create a flat, symmetrical chest area.
