Laser Bra Breast Lift Available on the East Coast?

Are there any doctors in the Boston, New York area that have studied with the doctor who created the Stevens laser bra breast lift technique and currently use it?

I'm looking for a breast lift with augmentation (Bilateral Mastopexy with Augmentation).

The truth about The Laser Bra

Interesting how many call this a gimick when they dont even know what it is.............. I have done this on hundreds of happy women for over 14 years ( including 2 family members, numerous employees, numerous nurses who have watched it, and multiple physicians including a past fellow who does the surgery herself!) Many of my Board Cerrtified Fellows are doing it around the country and I would be happy to assist any of you to find a qualifie more

Forget the laser bra, it is just a gimmick

There is nothing magic about a "laser bra" breast lift. Honestly! It is just a way of removing the skin before doing the lift and there are many effective ways of doing this. The heat of the laser is supposed to help tighten the tissues but there is no difference between Dr. Stevens' photos and those of many other qualified plastic surgeons. In fact, I personally have never been impressed by his artestry in this procedure and think his photos are rather ordinary. There are... more

I agree with the other surgeons who have answered this question

I am in full agreement with the qualified surgeons who have already answered this question. Laser is a form of light and works by heating things. It is not an ideal tool for breast lifts. The selective heating of different wavelengths of lasers make them useful for objects that are pigmented in a color to which the specific laser is directed. For example, a gold-green colored laser is preferentially absorbed by a red color. This makes that type of laser good for red lesions such as... more

Laser Bra Procedure

I agree with most of the doctors that a breast lift is a breast lift. The laser bra procedure was developed by Dr. Stephens in LA and uses the laser to de-epithelialize the breast pedicle. There is less bleeding and I have been pleased with results. Thermal effect caused by the laser does cause tissue contraction which can help firm the pedicle and improve the result in my experience.

Don't be swayed by marketing terminology...

There are dozens and dozens of various methods, patterns, and variations of breast lifts. Some manuveurs and priniciples are helpful, some essential ,and some irrelevant. A lot of different variations will give excellent results. It all depends on the individual patient's anatomy and how the principles are applied. Some doctors think the dermis is important to shaping and longevity of the lift. Others think how you rearrange the tissues is more important. Removing the outer layer of skin... more

Not sure this is the procedure you need

The only way to tell what procedure you need to help you reach your goals is to schedule a consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area and after your exam they can best describe to you what procedure you would benefit from. Bset of luck. Dr Edwards

Breast Augmentation/Lift Technique?

Thank you for the question. I would suggest that, rather than focusing on a specific technique, that you find the plastic surgeon in your area they can demonstrate significant experience achieving the type of results you're looking for. I would suggest starting with the American Society of Plastic Surgery and/or the Aesthetic Society of Plastic Surgery to obtain a list of well experienced board-certified plastic surgeons.  Then, I would suggest you visit a few... more

Laser bra lift is a gimmick

Plastic surgery is a rapidly developing field that continually has new technologies appear to help certain problems. A laser is a focus light source that can help burn or resurface skin or tissue. Although a laser may be used during a breast lift, there is nothing that a laser will specifically do to lift the breast alone. Your best bet is to be evaluated by a board-certified plastic surgeon with a great deal of experience in many different breast lift techniques. He or she... more

Laser breast lift

A laser breast lift sounds like another marketing tool. There are no lasers that can lift the breast. Yes, there are some lasers that purport to tightening the skin, but that is maybe 20%, and a true breast lift needs to mold the breast tissue deep to the skin.

Goes Technique by another name

Dr. Sampaio Goes from Sao Paolo, Brazil described a technique to lift the breats by a circumareolar incision whereby he removes the top layers of skin and uses the bottom layers to assist in lifting the breats. The majority of the pull/lift is from above the breast, as opposed to the pushing up of the breast that is necessary from most types of breast lifts. In my view this is a great way to perform a breast lift. I have taken this technique a step further in the "Tear Drop "... more

Artistic Augmentation Mastopexy will look great

An artistic Augmentation Mastopexy will look great with many different techniques. The importance is the experience of the surgeon and the quality of tissues to work with. Any surgical procedure with LASER (Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation) is usually a gimmick.

Laser bra lift is a gimmick.

Hi! In New York City, I don't know a single, experienced, board certified plastic surgeon who does laser bra lifts. It is a marketing gimmick. I would advise you to stay away from any one pushing this. You can get a great result from a well performed breast augmentation-mastopexy
