Breast Surgery

Muse Plastic Surgery in Atlanta performs a full range of breast surgical procedures, including breast augmentation with silicone or saline implants in teardrop or round profiles across a 120–960cc size range, breast lift (mastopexy), breast reduction, breast implant exchange, and nipple reduction. Procedures can be combined — augmentation with mastopexy is a common pairing — and are tailored to each patient's anatomy, existing breast tissue, and aesthetic goals through an individualised consultation process with Dr. Wright A. Jones MD FACS.

Breast surgery at Muse Plastic Surgery in Atlanta covers the complete spectrum of cosmetic and reconstructive breast procedures, performed by Dr. Wright A. Jones MD FACS at the practice's Roswell Road NE location. Breast augmentation is performed using either silicone gel or saline implants, with teardrop (anatomic) and round implant profiles available. The practice works with a wide implant size range spanning 120cc to 960cc, with implant selection guided by the patient's existing breast dimensions, chest wall measurements, skin envelope compliance, and desired outcome — a process that typically involves trying physical sizers during the pre-operative consultation to give the patient a tangible reference for different volumes. Pocket placement options (submuscular versus subglandular) and incision site selection (periareolar, inframammary, or transaxillary) are chosen based on the patient's anatomy and risk profile. Breast lift (mastopexy) repositions and reshapes descended breast tissue and, where required, resizes the areola, restoring a more youthful breast contour and nipple position. Lift technique — ranging from periareolar for minor ptosis to the full anchor-scar (Wise pattern) approach for significant volume and skin excess — is selected based on the degree of ptosis and the amount of excess skin present. Augmentation combined with mastopexy is the most common combined procedure at the practice, addressing both volume and position in a single setting. Breast reduction reduces breast volume and lifts the breast simultaneously, alleviating symptoms associated with macromastia including neck and upper back pain, shoulder grooving from bra straps, skin irritation beneath the breast fold, and restricted physical activity. Breast implant exchange replaces existing implants for patients who wish to change size, update to a newer implant generation, or address complications such as implant malposition, capsular contracture, or implant rupture. Nipple reduction is available as a minor ancillary procedure to resize a disproportionately large or asymmetric areola. Atlanta patients considering breast surgery are assessed for their overall health, breast anatomy, and realistic goals during an in-depth pre-operative consultation.
