Breast Plastic Surgery in Dnipro
Breast plastic surgery at GENEVITY covers augmentation, reduction, lifting and correction of breast shape and asymmetry. The plastic surgeon assesses the anatomy of the chest, the condition of the glandular tissue and skin, body proportions and the patient's wishes in order to establish whether surgery is appropriate, select a technique and plan the recovery.
What Is Breast Plastic Surgery?
Breast plastic surgery is a field of aesthetic and reconstructive medicine covering surgical change to the volume, shape, position and symmetry of the breasts. The shape of the breast depends on the volume of glandular and fatty tissue, the elasticity of the skin, the structure of the chest and the position of the nipple-areola complex. It is affected by pregnancy and breastfeeding, changes in weight, ageing and inherited characteristics. Different procedures are used depending on the goal: augmentation with implants, reduction mammoplasty, mastopexy, or correction of shape and asymmetry. In some cases techniques are combined — a lift together with augmentation, for example. At GENEVITY, planning is based on individual anatomy and medical indications. Surgery on the breast always requires prior assessment, including a consultation with a breast specialist and imaging of the glands according to age-based guidance. The aim is a shape proportionate to the patient's body, preserving a natural appearance and, where possible, the function of the breast.
How Are Preparation and Breast Surgery Carried Out?
Consultation and Assessment
The plastic surgeon assesses the volume and shape of the breasts, the condition of the skin, the position of the nipple-areola complex, symmetry and body proportions. Expectations, possible results, limitations and risks are discussed.
Breast Assessment
Before any procedure on the breast, a consultation with a breast specialist and imaging — ultrasound or mammography depending on age and indications — are carried out. This rules out conditions that need treatment before surgery.
Individual Planning
The doctor determines the technique, the approach, the placement of the incisions and, where relevant, the type, shape and size of implant, choosing the option that matches the patient's anatomy and expectations.
Surgery
Breast operations are usually performed under general anaesthesia. Their length and extent depend on the technique chosen. An inpatient stay under observation follows the procedure.
Recovery and Follow-Up
A compression garment, restrictions on physical activity and follow-up appointments are prescribed. Initial recovery usually takes several weeks, and the final shape of the breasts settles over several months.

Preoperative Assessment in One Centre — The breast consultation, ultrasound and laboratory investigations are all carried out at the centre.
An Individually Chosen Technique — The surgical technique is chosen with the patient's anatomy, tissue condition, body proportions and expectations in mind.
Volume, Shape and Position — Surgical techniques can change volume and correct the shape and position of the breast and the nipple-areola complex.
Combined Procedures — Where indicated, a lift can be combined with augmentation or reduction in a single operation.
A Focus on Natural Proportions — Planning aims at a shape proportionate to the body, without disproportionately large volumes.
Medical Care and Follow-Up — Preoperative assessment, anaesthetic care, the inpatient stay and postoperative review are all part of the treatment.

Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation at GENEVITY is mammoplasty using implants to change the volume and shape of the breasts. The plastic surgeon selects the type, shape and size of implant, together with the approach and the plane of placement, individually, taking into account the anatomy of the chest, the condition of the tissues and body proportions.
Breast Reduction
Breast reduction at GENEVITY is reduction mammoplasty: it reduces the volume of the breasts, removes excess skin and lifts the breast at the same time. It is performed for both aesthetic and medical reasons, when large breasts place strain on the spine and limit everyday life.
Breast Lift
A breast lift (mastopexy) at GENEVITY is the surgical correction of breast position without changing volume. The operation removes excess stretched skin and moves the nipple-areola complex to a higher position. Where needed, mastopexy is combined with augmentation or reduction.
Breast Shape and Asymmetry Correction
Correction of breast shape and asymmetry at GENEVITY surgically evens out the volume, shape and position of the breasts where they differ noticeably from each other or have particular structural features. The plan can differ for each breast: one may be augmented while the other is reduced or lifted.
Facial Plastic Surgery
Facial plastic surgery at GENEVITY means an individual approach to aesthetic correction and rejuvenation. A facelift or neck lift, blepharoplasty, rhinoplasty, otoplasty and facial contouring each address different aesthetic and anatomical concerns. The plastic surgeon assesses the structure of the face, the condition of the tissues and the patient's wishes in order to establish whether surgery is appropriate, select a suitable technique and plan the recovery.
FAQ
The field includes augmentation with implants, reduction mammoplasty, breast lifting (mastopexy) and correction of breast shape and asymmetry.
A consultation with a breast specialist and imaging of the breasts — ultrasound or mammography depending on age — are required. Laboratory investigations and a consultation with an anaesthetist are also carried out.
Yes, where indicated. Combining the two restores the position of the breast and adds volume in one operation. The surgeon decides whether it is possible and appropriate after examination.
This depends on the technique and the extent of the procedure. Some operations can reduce the ability to breastfeed, particularly those involving the glandular tissue and ducts. If pregnancy is planned, this is always discussed before surgery.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding change the volume and shape of the breasts, so the result of surgery performed beforehand may change. If pregnancy is planned in the near future, surgery is usually deferred.
Breast operations are usually performed under general anaesthesia. The anaesthetist decides on the approach, taking the extent of the procedure and the patient's health into account.
Initial recovery usually takes several weeks, during which a compression garment and restrictions on activity are prescribed. The final shape settles over several months.
Any breast operation leaves scars. Their position depends on the technique — in the fold beneath the breast, around the areola, or vertically. How noticeable they are depends on individual healing.
The results of many procedures are long-lasting. The shape of the breast continues to be affected by ageing, changes in weight, pregnancy and breastfeeding, and skin elasticity.
The cost depends on the type of operation, its extent, the implants used if any, the anaesthesia, the investigations and the inpatient stay. An exact estimate is prepared after a consultation.
