Breast Surgery

Dr. Adam Schaffner performs a full range of breast surgical procedures from his Midtown Manhattan practice, including breast augmentation with implants, breast lift, breast reduction, and fat transfer to the breast. The practice offers two proprietary techniques — the Bellesoma Breast Lift Method and the Bellesoma Breast Reduction Method — designed to restore a natural breast shape while minimising visible scarring. Implant revision, asymmetry correction, inverted nipple correction, and the InstantBreast℠ technique are also available. All procedures are tailored to each patient's anatomy and aesthetic goals through a thorough pre-operative consultation.

Adam Schaffner MD Plastic Surgery NYC offers one of the most comprehensive breast surgery menus available in New York City, backed by Dr. Schaffner's fellowship training in aesthetic and breast plastic surgery under Dr. Scott Spear at MedStar Georgetown University Hospital. The practice performs breast augmentation using a range of implant types, profiles, and sizes — including Motiva Preserve breast implants — with incision placement and pocket selection (submuscular versus subglandular) chosen to suit each patient's existing tissue envelope and desired outcome. For patients seeking to restore breast projection and shape without implants, fat transfer to the breast offers a natural augmentation option using the patient's own harvested adipose tissue. Breast lift surgery at the practice is available as a standalone procedure or in combination with augmentation, with the Bellesoma Breast Lift Method representing Dr. Schaffner's proprietary approach: a technique designed to restore youthful breast shape and position while maintaining natural movement and minimising the length of visible incision lines compared to conventional anchor-scar approaches. The Bellesoma Breast Reduction Method applies similar principles to volume reduction, addressing macromastia-related symptoms including neck and back pain, shoulder grooving, and skin irritation while achieving a breast shape consistent with the patient's frame. Additional procedures include breast implant revision and correction for patients experiencing complications or aesthetic concerns with prior augmentation, breast reconstruction revision for those who have undergone oncological procedures, and inverted nipple correction. The practice also offers the InstantBreast℠ technique for select patients. Pre-operative planning uses the Crisalix 3D simulation tool to give patients a visual reference for anticipated outcomes. Several breast procedures may qualify for insurance coverage under medically necessary criteria. New York City and Midtown Manhattan patients receive complimentary virtual consultations as a first step.
