NEW YORK, NY, January 08, 2011 (Press-News.org) Breast surgery is an umbrella term for several types of cosmetic surgery procedures including breast augmentation, breast lift, breast reduction, breast reconstruction and breast implant revision. These breast surgery options can improve the appearance of breasts from the use of breast implants for small, asymmetric or misshapen breasts to a breast reduction for disproportionately heavy breasts.

Today, plastic surgeons offer many different breast surgery procedures (http://www.psurgery.com/breast-surgery.html) that can be tailored to the specific needs of individual women. Two of the most popular breast surgeries, breast reductions and breast reconstructions, can be performed by plastic surgeons, as well as breast augmentations and breasts lifts. These surgeries can even be combined to give patients the ideal results.

Breast Augmentation Surgery

Many women express anxiety due to the size and appearance of their breasts. Breast augmentation can improve self-confidence by increasing breast fullness and creating a more proportioned figure. Many choices exist for the type and size of breast implants, all of which should be discussed with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Breast implant placement options include:

- Sub-glandular - above the muscle
- Sub-muscular - below the muscle
- Complete sub-muscular placement - completely under the muscle
- Sub-fascia placement - a newer technique intended as a compromise between sub-glandular and sub-muscular placements

Breast Lift Surgery

A woman's breast shape can change for a number of reasons including age, hormonal fluctuations, pregnancy and genetics. These can lead to stretched ligaments and slack skin that does not bounce back to its former shape and causes severe sagging. While supportive bras can help make breasts appear more normal, the best method to correct sagging breasts is a breast lift. The different breast lift options are:

- Crescent breast lift - least invasive and recommended for patients who have very little sagging, also called "ptosis", and those who have smaller breasts
- Benelli breast lift - reserved for patients with minimal ptosis and can also help patients who wish to reduce the size of their areolas
- Vertical breast lift or lollipop - ideal for patients with moderate ptosis
- Full anchor lift - reserved for patients with severe ptosis and is the most invasive. However, full anchor lifts are also known as the most reliable method of breast lifts

Please visit the website of board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Scott E. Newman at Advanced Plastic Surgery in New York City to have your breast augmentation questions answered and to begin the journey toward achieving your cosmetic goals.

Jurisdiction in Minnesota for Out of State Developers

2011-01-08

Before an individual can be called into a particular court, that court must have personal jurisdiction over the person. If you have never had any interactions with the state of Minnesota, for example, a Minnesota court cannot demand that you make an appearance. When companies are involved, though, the issue of personal jurisdiction can become complicated. Companies do not reside in a single location and often interact with people in a variety of states; complex business structures can lead to difficult questions regarding personal jurisdiction. Recently, the Minnesota ...

The Hallmark of Our Justice System: Innocent Until Proven Guilty

2011-01-08

In the United States, our justice system is premised on a fundamental principle: those accused of crime are deemed innocent until they are proven guilty. The bar for establishing guilt is high -- jurors are expected to only convict an individual accused of a crime if the prosecutor has proved guilt "beyond a reasonable doubt." At times though, this expectation contradicts the assumptions of those who are asked to serve as members of the jury. For some it is easy to assume that by the time an individual has been arrested by the police and put on trial by a prosecutor, ...

Should the MTA be Required to Unlock New York Subway Doors?

2011-01-08

City councilwoman Letitia James introduced a resolution that would force the MTA to unlock subway car doors. She says it's a question of public safety. With the subway doors locked, passengers have no way to escape a situation in which they feel unsafe, like a fight in a subway car or harassment by another rider.
