TUBEROUS BREAST CORRECTION
Tuberous breasts are a congenital breast deformity that develops during fetal growth and becomes apparent during puberty as the breasts develop. Treatment is surgical and requires specialized techniques to restore both the shape and size of the breasts.

BREAST HYPOPLASIA CORRECTION
Breast hypoplasia is corrected through breast augmentation using specialized silicone implants placed behind the breast tissue. It is one of the most popular procedures in plastic surgery, with an estimated over three million women worldwide having undergone breast augmentation in the past 35 years.

CORRECTION OF BREAST ASYMMETRY
Many women have a slight asymmetry between the two breasts that is not easily noticeable. However, in some cases, the difference in size and shape is significant, causing aesthetic imbalance and psychological distress. Plastic surgery allows for effective correction of breast asymmetry, aiming to achieve a harmonious and symmetrical appearance with impressive results.

BREAST REDUCTION
Breast reduction surgery aims to decrease the size of the breasts by removing fat, glandular tissue, and excess skin, making the breasts smaller, lighter, and firmer. At the same time, it can reduce the size of the areola and reposition it to a higher, more youthful position.

BREAST RECONSTRUCTION AFTER MASSIVE WEIGHT LOSS
The breast is composed mainly of fatty tissue, which is why massive weight loss often leads to significant sagging and loss of breast volume. Plastic surgery can offer effective solutions for these patients through specialized procedures aimed at increasing breast volume and lifting the breasts by removing excess skin.

BREAST RECONSTRUCTION AFTER MASTECTOMY
Breast reconstruction after mastectomy is essential when considering the permanent physical loss and the psychological, social, and aesthetic impact of this procedure. The patient may consult a plastic surgeon prior to mastectomy to discuss reconstruction options, either immediate (performed at the same time as mastectomy) or delayed (after approximately six months), as well as the most appropriate method for reconstruction.

SKIN AND NIPPLE SPARING MASTECTOMY
Skin and nipple-sparing mastectomy is a surgical technique in which the surgeon removes only the breast tissue while preserving the skin and the nipple-areola complex. With this technique, also known as subcutaneous mastectomy, a “pocket” is created that can be filled with a silicone implant, providing highly natural aesthetic results.

BREAST RECONSTRUCTION AFTER MASSIVE WEIGHT LOSS
The breast is composed mainly of fatty tissue, which is why massive weight loss often leads to significant sagging and loss of breast volume. Plastic surgery can offer effective solutions for these patients through specialized procedures aimed at increasing breast volume and lifting the breasts by removing excess skin.

ARM RECONSTRUCTION AFTER MASSIVE WEIGHT LOSS
Brachioplasty, or arm lift, is a surgical procedure aimed at restoring the appearance of the arms by correcting the sagging that occurs after massive weight loss. The procedure removes excess skin and fat from the upper arm area, resulting in a firmer and more youthful contour.

ABDOMINAL AND TORSO RECONSTRUCTION AFTER MASSIVE WEIGHT LOSS
The presence of a large, overhanging abdomen is a common problem for both women and men following massive weight loss. The appearance is almost always similar: accumulation of fat in the lower abdomen, protrusion of the abdominal wall, skin laxity with unsightly folds, and the development of stretch marks due to loss of skin elasticity.

THIGH RECONSTRUCTION AFTER MASSIVE WEIGHT LOSS
Thigh lift is a surgical procedure performed to correct sagging of the inner thighs following massive weight loss. The procedure removes excess skin and fat from the inner thigh area, restoring a firmer and more contoured appearance.

BASAL CELL CARCINOMA (BCC)
Basal cell carcinoma is the most common skin cancer among fair-skinned populations. It can appear anywhere on the body but occurs most frequently in sun-exposed areas, particularly the face.

SQUAMOUS CELL CARCINOMA (SCC)
Squamous cell carcinoma is the second most common skin tumor (about 20% of non-melanoma skin cancers). It is strongly associated with chronic sun exposure, although other factors such as immunosuppression, chronic wounds and scars, chemical exposure, and others also play a role in its development.

MELANOMA
Melanoma is the most serious form of skin cancer. Early diagnosis is crucial for a favorable prognosis. For this reason, any skin lesion that changes in appearance or behavior should be considered suspicious.

PRECANCEROUS CONDITIONS
These are skin changes that, if left untreated, may progress to skin cancer, mainly basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma.

MOLES (NEVI)
Nevi (commonly known as moles) are benign skin lesions originating from melanocytes — the cells that produce melanin, which gives skin its color. Moles are classified as congenital, meaning they are present at birth or become noticeable within the first year of life, and acquired, which develop during the first decades of life.

BENIGN SKIN LESIONS
In addition to nevi (moles), there are many other benign skin lesions and conditions that may concern a plastic surgeon, such as cysts, hyperhidrosis, hidradenitis suppurativa (also known as inverse acne), xanthelasma, papillomas, seborrheic keratosis, rhinophyma, dermatofibroma, neurofibroma, and lipoma.

BURNS
Burns are injuries to the skin most commonly caused by excessive heat. They may result from direct exposure to fire or hot liquids, as well as from indirect heat from hot sources such as ovens. Burns can also be caused by chemicals, electricity, solar radiation, friction, or extreme cold.

TRAUMA
A wound is defined as a violent disruption of the continuity of the skin caused by mechanical, thermal, chemical, or radiation factors. The final outcome of wound healing is the formation of a scar, through a process known as scarring (cicatrization).

SCARS
Whenever the skin is cut or injured through its full thickness, healing results in a scar. Some people heal better than others. We cannot predict with certainty which patients are more likely to develop poor scarring, but in general we know that individuals with very dark skin, as well as those at the other end of the spectrum — with freckles and red hair — tend to have a higher risk of developing hypertrophic scars and keloids. Certain areas of the body are also more prone to problematic scarring than others.
