Breast Surgery (Augmentation, Lift & Reduction)

Dr. Pruitt offers breast augmentation, breast lift (mastopexy), and breast reduction to address a wide range of aesthetic and functional concerns. Augmentation uses implants to increase size, improve projection, and correct asymmetry, with most patients resuming normal activities within 12–24 hours. Breast lift reshapes and elevates the breast mound using periareolar, vertical, or anchor incisions based on ptosis degree. Reduction relieves back, neck, and shoulder pain from disproportionately large breasts. All procedures are performed under IV sedation with local anaesthesia, avoiding general anaesthesia to reduce systemic risk and recovery time.

Dr. Bryan Pruitt's breast surgery practice in Dallas, Texas offers three core procedures — augmentation, lift, and reduction — each customised to the individual patient's anatomy, goals, and lifestyle. Breast augmentation places implants via an incision approach selected in consultation with the patient, adding volume and improving projection, symmetry, and upper pole fullness. The procedure takes approximately one hour under IV sedation with local anaesthesia, and Dr. Pruitt's minimal-downtime technique allows many patients to return to light normal activities within 12 to 24 hours. Breast lift (mastopexy) addresses ptosis — the drooping that commonly follows pregnancy, breastfeeding, significant weight loss, or natural ageing. Dr. Pruitt selects among periareolar, vertical (lollipop), and anchor incision patterns based on the degree of ptosis, repositioning the nipple-areola complex and reshaping the underlying breast tissue to restore a youthful contour. The procedure takes two to four hours, with a recovery of approximately five to six weeks before full return to routine activities. Augmentation and lift are frequently combined in a single surgical session for patients who want both volume and elevation. Breast reduction provides both aesthetic and functional relief for patients whose breast size causes chronic back, neck, and shoulder pain, skin chafing, postural issues, or difficulty with physical activity and clothing. Incision pattern and volume of tissue removal are tailored to each patient's anatomy and goals, with the procedure typically taking three to four hours. Recovery parallels the breast lift timeline at five to six weeks. All three procedures are performed at Dr. Pruitt's accredited Dallas surgical facility under IV sedation with local anaesthesia. A credentialed anaesthesiologist is present throughout. Dr. Pruitt is board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and has over 20 years of experience in breast and body surgery. The practice accepts out-of-state patients and offers virtual consultations for initial assessment.
