Breast Augmentation
Dr. Mark Mofid provides breast augmentation with both saline and silicone implants. There are several factors to consider when getting breast implants, including implant placement, size, shape, and type of material. At the practice of Dr. Mofid, ample time is taken with each patient to ensure that the correct decisions for each woman's lifestyle are made.

Breast Reduction
Large, heavy breasts can become burdensome, misaligning the spine and thus causing back problems and making sports and other activities difficult. In addition, clothes often fit improperly over excessively large breasts, causing thin women to appear overweight. Dr. Mark Mofid can reduce the size of the breasts as necessary for patient health while maintaining a feminine and flattering body contour.

Breast Augmentation with Lift
Women who have experienced a loss of skin elasticity in the breast area may achieve excellent results by receiving breast augmentation and breast lift in one surgery, rather than undergoing either of the procedures alone. When combined with breast augmentation, a breast lift further restores volume to the chest, reversing droopiness caused by breastfeeding, weight fluctuations, and aging. During the breast augmentation and lift procedure, Dr. Mofid makes a short vertical incision from the areola to the lower breast fold. Excess tissue is trimmed away and breast implants are placed beneath the chest muscle or mammary gland. The remaining skin and breast tissue is drawn together for a firmer, tauter appearance. Dr. Mofid’s expertise with breast augmentation and lift allows him to consistently achieve natural results for his patients.
Breast Lift
The aging process can take a toll on the breasts as the skin loses elasticity, causing the breasts to droop or sag. The loss of elasticity results in breasts that are less able to resist the effects of pregnancy, nursing, and gravity. Dr. Mark Mofid can restore the pert appearance that signifies youth and beauty with a mastopexy (breast lift) at his San Diego and La Jolla-area practice. Breast lift surgery may also be combined with breast implants for a fuller appearance. Today's breast implants need not appear artificial; the variety of sizes and shapes available ensures that all patients can achieve natural looks.
During the breast lift procedure, the breasts are raised through the removal of excess skin from their undersides. The skin is then reshaped to conform to each breast's new, taut contour and sutured in place. After a breast lift, the patient typically feels younger and more attractive. One important reason for the enhanced self-image is the fact that clothes fit much better when the breasts are lifted and full. Although the effects of gravity are inescapable, it is possible for patients to maintain attractive breasts well into their later years with breast lift surgery at Dr. Mofid's practice. Dr. Mofid provides consultations for women considering breast lift surgery at his San Diego and La Jolla-area offices.
Inverted Nipple Repair
Inverted nipples are seldom discussed but not particularly rare. Some women are born with inverted nipples and others have nipples that become inverted later in life. Many times, this phenomenon is caused by scar tissue that develops after breastfeeding children. Fortunately, Dr. Mark Mofid offers inverted nipple repair, usually performed as a short procedure under general anesthesia, at his practice serving La Jolla, Chula Vista, and other San Diego areas.
