Among the breast surgeries most frequently performed by the doctor are breast reduction, mastopexy, silicone implants, and gynecomastia correction. Each of these procedures is individually planned to meet the specific needs of each patient, delivering harmonious and long-lasting results.

Breast Reduction: Physical and Aesthetic Relief

Breast reduction is a surgical procedure recommended for women who suffer from excessively large breasts, causing physical and emotional discomfort. This procedure is especially sought by patients who experience problems such as back, neck, and shoulder pain, as well as difficulty exercising or finding properly fitting clothing.

Technique Used

Dr. Eduardo Lintz performs breast reduction using the principles of Professor Pitanguy combined with modern techniques that allow for the removal of excess glandular tissue, fat, and skin, while repositioning the areola and the nipple-areolar complex to create a more proportional and natural appearance. The incisions are carefully planned to minimize scarring and ensure satisfying aesthetic results. Depending on the case, he may use different incision patterns, such as the "anchor" or "inverted-T" pattern, always prioritizing the patient's health and comfort.

Benefits and Results

In addition to significantly improving the appearance of the breasts, breast reduction relieves physical symptoms such as muscle pain, postural problems, and skin irritation beneath the breasts. Many patients report a substantial improvement in quality of life, with greater ease in performing daily activities and wearing clothes with more confidence. The results are permanent, provided that body weight remains stable after surgery.

Post-Operative Care

After breast reduction, it is essential to follow Dr. Eduardo Lintz's guidelines to ensure a smooth recovery. This includes wearing compression bras, lymphatic drainage massage, adequate rest, and avoiding strenuous physical activity during the first few weeks. The return to normal activities varies depending on the case but typically occurs within 4 to 6 weeks.

Mastopexy: Restoring Firmness and Youth to the Breasts

Mastopexy, also known as a breast lift, is a surgical procedure recommended for women experiencing breast ptosis, usually resulting from aging, significant weight loss, or prolonged breastfeeding. This procedure is ideal for those who wish to restore breast firmness and natural positioning without significantly altering volume.

Technique Used

Dr. Eduardo Lintz performs mastopexy using strategic incisions that allow for the removal of excess skin and the repositioning of breast tissue to create a more youthful and toned contour. The areola and the nipple-areolar complex are also repositioned to harmonize with the new breast shape. In some cases, small silicone implants may be added to slightly increase volume, if desired by the patient.

Benefits and Results

Mastopexy provides a more rejuvenated and balanced appearance, while also improving patients' self-esteem and confidence. The results are long-lasting, although natural aging and factors such as pregnancy or weight fluctuations may influence the longevity of the effects.

Post-Operative Care

To ensure the best results, it is essential to follow post-operative care instructions. This includes wearing special support bras, lymphatic drainage massage, and avoiding strenuous physical activity during the initial recovery period. The return to normal activities typically occurs within 3 to 4 weeks.

Silicone Implants: Enhancing Breast Volume and Contour

Silicone implants are one of the most frequently performed procedures by Dr. Eduardo Lintz, recommended for women who wish to increase breast volume, correct asymmetries, or restore volume lost after events such as pregnancy or weight loss. This procedure is especially sought by those looking for a more feminine and harmonious body contour.

Technique Used

Dr. Eduardo Lintz uses high-quality silicone implants, available in different sizes, shapes, and textures, to meet each patient's individual expectations. The incisions may be made in discreet locations, such as around the areola (periareolar), along the inframammary fold, or in the axilla, depending on the patient's anatomy and preferences. During surgery, the implants are strategically positioned either beneath the muscle (submuscular) or above it (subglandular) to achieve natural and proportional results.

Benefits and Results

Silicone implants provide a significant boost in patients' self-esteem and confidence, while also improving body proportion. The results are long-lasting, although the implants may need to be replaced after many years, depending on factors such as implant integrity and changes in the patient's body.

Post-Operative Care

After silicone implant placement, it is recommended to wear compression bras and avoid strenuous physical activity during the first few weeks. Dr. Eduardo Lintz advises his patients on the necessary care to minimize complications and ensure a swift recovery. The return to normal activities typically occurs within 4 to 6 weeks.

Gynecomastia: Correcting Male Breast Enlargement

Gynecomastia is a condition characterized by the enlargement of the mammary glands in men, caused by factors such as hormonal imbalance, medication use, or weight gain. This condition can cause emotional distress and affect self-esteem, leading many men to seek surgical treatment.

Technique Used

Dr. Eduardo Lintz performs gynecomastia surgery by removing excess glandular tissue, fat, and, when necessary, skin to create a more masculine and defined chest contour. In cases where the enlargement is primarily caused by fat, he may use liposuction to sculpt the area. The incisions are minimal and strategically positioned to minimize scarring.

Benefits and Results

Gynecomastia surgery significantly improves the appearance of the chest, providing patients with a renewed sense of confidence and well-being. The results are permanent, provided that the patient maintains a healthy lifestyle and avoids factors that may contribute to the recurrence of the condition.

Post-Operative Care

After gynecomastia surgery, it is recommended to wear compression garments and avoid strenuous physical activity during the first few weeks. Dr. Eduardo Lintz advises his patients on the necessary care to ensure a smooth recovery and satisfactory results. The return to normal activities typically occurs within 3 to 4 weeks.
