Dr. Luciano Ríos Lara operating at Hospital Ángeles Clínica Londres

Breast surgery

Breast surgery changes the size, shape or position of the breasts. It includes breast augmentation with implants, breast lift, breast reduction, revision of previous surgery, reconstruction after mastectomy and male chest contouring for gynecomastia.

Breast surgery is a particular focus for Dr. Luciano Ríos Lara, who trained in it in Banff, Canada. At your consultation, your measurements, skin quality and goals are reviewed to choose the right technique.

Breast surgery procedures

Breast augmentation
Breast augmentation is a surgery that increases breast size and improves shape by placing silicone or saline implants either behind or in front of the chest muscle. Dr. Ríos Lara performs it in Mexico City.
About 2 hours
Breast lift
A breast lift (mastopexy) raises and reshapes sagging breasts by removing excess skin and moving the nipple and areola higher. In Mexico City, it can be combined with implants if you also want more volume.
2 to 3 hours · Strenuous activity after 1 month
Breast reduction
Breast reduction (reduction mammaplasty) is a surgery that makes the breasts smaller, lighter and better shaped by removing breast tissue, fat and skin and lifting the nipple and areola, performed in Mexico City.
2 to 4 hours · About 2 weeks
Male chest masculinization
Male chest masculinization is gynecomastia surgery: it reduces enlarged breast tissue in men with liposuction and/or gland removal and defines the chest for a flatter, more masculine contour. It is performed in Mexico City.
1.5 to 3 hours · Exercise after 2–3 weeks
Breast revision surgery
Breast revision surgery corrects or improves the result of a previous breast operation — for example, replacing implants, treating capsular contracture or repositioning a displaced implant. Dr. Ríos Lara performs it in Mexico City.
1 to 2 hours
Breast reconstruction
Breast reconstruction is surgery that rebuilds the shape and volume of the breast after a mastectomy or injury, using implants or tissue expanders, or tissue from your own body. It is offered in Mexico City.
