The Body Beautiful Surgeon

Boston breast augmentation expert Richard A. Moss M.D. is occasionally asked by patients “What is this?” They ask during a post operative examination and they are usually pointing just below their inframammary crease of their breast. And what they point to is one or more cord like structures that run vertically down from their breasts. The patient may also comment on the fact that the area is somewhat sensitive.

Massachusetts cosmetic surgery expert, Richard A. Moss M.D., makes patient safety a primary concern at all times. “Patient safety is an issue that patients may not specifically ask about, but many of their questions involve this issue. In fact unless there has been a recent incident of complications from cosmetic surgery highlighted in the press (usually someone famous, usually Hollywood), most patients prefer to talk about other topics related to their surgery,” states Dr. Moss.

Breast Augmentation Surgery – What Will I Look Like?

For many breast augmentation patients, the 64 million dollar question is “What will my breasts look like the first time I see them after surgery?” Boston Breast Augmentation expert, Richard A. Moss M.D., hears this question all the time. “And even if I don’t hear it, I make sure any breast implant patient is given the answer at both her consultation and her pre-operative visit,” Dr. Moss emphatically states.

“There’s something new in the neighborhood!” It’s called breast MRI. Dr. Richard A. Moss, Boston Breast Augmentation specialist comments, “We are fortunate to have equipment as sophisticated and state of the art, as we are going to have at Quincy Medical Center. Instead of travelling to Boston or Brockton, our patients will be able to conveniently have these tests close to home.”

MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) uses magnets and radio waves instead of x-rays to produce very detailed, cross-sectional images of the body. This technology incorporates the use of computer software that processes the signals to generate these images, each of which shows a thin slice of the body. MRI studies do not expose patients to x-ray radiation.

Breast Implants and Pregnancy

During consultation, Boston breast augmentation surgeon, Richard A. Moss M.D. is often asked questions concerning breast implants and pregnancy. One group of patients is that of young women, who still have their child bearing years ahead. This group wants assurances that breast enhancement (another name for breast augmentation) surgery will not preclude their ability to have children and breast feed. The second group of patients is composed of women who have had children. These women are primarily looking to undo the unwanted after effects of pregnancy and breast feeding. Not only are they looking for advice from Dr. Moss on increasing the small size of their breasts, but some also have concerns about breast sag. As reality sets in their first question often is “How soon can I have breast augmentation surgery after child birth and breast feeding?”

Boston Breast Augmentation and Mastopexy Surgery

Dr. Richard A. Moss, Boston Breast Augmentation expert explains the surgical procedures available to women who are considering cosmetic surgery for their breasts. For some residents of Boston, breast augmentation surgery is the surgery that will most likely address their needs. For others, a breast lift, commonly referred to as mastopexy will better help them achieve the desired goals. Dr. Moss also addresses what would be considered realistic goals and expectations for patients considering breast implantation surgery and breast lift surgery.
