[b][Ogden, March 17, 2016][/b] - Alpine Plastic Surgery, one of the most trusted plastic surgery clinics in Utah, offers breast augmentation and reduction. Dr. Randal Barnett, one of the experienced plastic surgeons in Utah, performs these surgical procedures in the clinic.

[b]Breast Augmentation[/b]

Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that involves the placement of breast implants on the chest muscles to increase the breast size or restore the breast shape and size after breast cancer treatments or pregnancy. Alpine Plastic Surgery uses saline or silicone implants for this procedure.

The clinic usually performs this surgery under general anesthesia, but the patients have the option to go under a local anesthesia instead. In this procedure, an incision is necessary to insert the breast implant.

After the surgery, the shape and size of the patient’s breast may extensively improve. But the clinic advises the patients to only keep realistic expectations. The surgeon will prescribe post-surgery medications and care instructions to the patient. A follow-up appointment is also necessary.

[b]Breast Reduction[/b]

Breast reduction, on the other hand, is a procedure that entails the removal of a particular breast tissue and skin to reduce the breast size or reshape the breast. The surgery usually lasts for about two to five hours, and the surgeon performs it under general anesthesia. This procedure commonly requires three surgical cuts, and liposuction in some circumstances.

The recovery time for this procedure takes a week or two. The surgeon will prescribe post-surgery medications to lower the swelling and bruising around the incisions. For several months after the surgery, the patient may also need to wear special and supportive bra. The scars from this procedure will be permanent, but they usually fade after a year.

Alpine Plastic Surgery offers pre-operative consultation, as the surgeon needs to know the patient’s medical history and the patient needs to be aware of the risks that come with the procedure. If the patient decides to go on with the surgery, the surgeon will prescribe some pre-surgery medications and instructions.


Women interested in breast augmentation or reduction may go to the website of Alpine Plastic Surgery or call their hotline for inquiries or to schedule an appointment. Patients may also visit the clinic at Ogden Regional Medical Center.
