Breast Lift La Jolla California

A breast lift can change the look and shape of your entire body for the better and eliminate that tired or aged look.

La Jolla Breast Lift

Women who have had children or lost a considerable amount of weight may experience a tremendous amount of relief from a breast lift operation.

A breast lift is not a simple operation, but it is usually safe when performed by a qualified plastic surgeon. With any surgery there is a possibility of complications or a reaction to the anesthesia. Bleeding and infection following a breast lift are uncommon, but they can cause scars to widen. You can reduce your risks by closely following your physician's advice both before and after surgery.

Mastopexy does leave noticeable, permanent scars, although they'll be covered by your bra or bathing suit. The procedure can also leave you with unevenly positioned nipples, or a permanent loss of feeling in your nipples or breast.

Many women seek mastopexy because pregnancy and nursing have left them with stretched skin and less volume in their breasts. However, if you're planning to have more children, it may be a good idea to postpone your breast lift. While there are no special risks that affect future pregnancies (for example, mastopexy usually doesn't interfere with breast-feeding), pregnancy is likely to stretch your breasts again and offset the results of the procedure.

At the heart of Stuart B Kincaid MD, FACS practice philosophy is the belief that plastic surgery is a highly specialized area of medicine dealing with the mind and body. The goal of cosmetic plastic surgery should be to bring one's self-image and body-image into better balance; and by so doing, improve one's self-esteem.

The success of your elective cosmetic surgery procedure is greatly dependent upon the plastic surgeon you choose. Each aesthetic (cosmetic) surgery patient has his or her unique reason for pursuing surgery, and it is a very personal one.

Some patients are motivated to alter an undesirable physical feature either inherited or acquired, while others simply want to refresh features that have aged over time. My approach to you, the patient, is a highly personalized one. I want to spend ample time with you to fully address your concerns and establish trust in me and the office staff.

My initial consultation with you and subsequent visits will focus on your concerns and expectations. I will make every effort to lend a sensitive ear to your needs. I will then carefully assess, in a private professional manner, those physical features bothersome to you.

Together we will proceed in developing a mutually agreed upon treatment plan. It is imperative that realistic goals and expectations be established prior to surgery. It has been my experience that a highly self-motivated, well-informed and realistic cosmetic patient is generally a pleased patient.

My commitment is to deliver exceptional cosmetic plastic surgery results that exceed expectations in a safe and comfortable environment and to have a happy, satisfied patient whenever possible. It is important to keep in mind that results may vary from patient to patient given the uniqueness of each individual's physical characteristics and needs. This surgery is offered at affordable prices with payment options that will accommodate most patients' budgets.

My staff and I fully understand that exceptional plastic surgery requires more than board certification alone. Other ingredients must include artistry, attention to detail, compassion, effective communication, self-discipline, experience, integrity, respect for privacy, skillful and delicate application of surgical techniques, natural appearing results, and extensive, ongoing subspecialty training in the field of aesthetic (cosmetic) surgery.

As a seasoned surgeon, with over nineteen years experience in plastic surgery; I firmly believe that your surgical result is not an end in itself, but rather a means to an end-that is to say, to help you achieve a happy, healthy and productive life.

To complement your cosmetic surgery result, our office encourages lifestyle changes when necessary, including proper nutrition, regular and age appropriate exercise, stress reduction and skin care. My staff and I welcome an ongoing relationship in helping you attain your lifelong best image!


Stuart B Kincaid MD, FACS primary concern is the comfort and safety of his patients. Following surgery, Dr. Stuart Kincaid offers the On-Q pain management system to his patients.
