With convenient office locations, in San Francisco and Novato, he offers women breast reduction surgery and the chance to regain a higher sense of confidence and self-esteem. Maintaining the value of a strong patient-doctor relationship, Dr. Delgado will help you feel at ease at his state-of-the-art operating facility.

Breast Reduction with Dr. Delgado

Breast reduction surgery can correct the appearance of disproportionately large breasts. There are various techniques that can be used during this procedure; typically, however, San Francisco plastic surgeon Dr. Delgado will make incisions around the areola and downward to the crease underneath the breasts. He will then remove excess glandular tissue, fat, and skin, while re-sculpting the breasts to a new form and contour. The nipple areola complex may also be moved to a higher position.

By undergoing breast reduction surgery, you are able to achieve breasts that are more symmetrical and complement with the rest of your body. To see samples of our San Francisco plastic surgery professional’s patient results, feel free to view before and after breast reduction photos.

In addition to breast reduction for women, Dr. Delgado also offers breast reduction for men (“gynecomastia surgery”), which is designed to provide a more masculine appearance. San Francisco male breast reduction professional Dr. Delgado typically removes excess glandular with the use of liposuction (“lipoplasty”), alleviating the appearance of “woman-like” breasts. Dr. Delgado specializes in breast augmentation surgery (“augmentation mammaplasty”) as well, which can increase the size and enhance the shape of your breasts.

Our San Francisco cosmetic surgery professional, Dr. Delgado, is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS), as well as a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), and the California Society of Plastic Surgeons (CSPS).
