At Summit Plastic Surgery, we proudly provide patients in Redding with comprehensive surgical breast procedures designed to enhance balance, comfort, and confidence. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Max Malotky brings advanced surgical training and extensive experience to every procedure, offering both cosmetic and reconstructive solutions tailored to individual needs. From restoring volume and improving breast position to relieving physical discomfort or rebuilding after breast cancer treatment, our surgical approach addresses a wide range of concerns. If changes in size, shape, symmetry, or comfort have affected your confidence or quality of life, a personalized surgical plan may help you achieve lasting, natural-looking results. Our surgical breast procedure options include:
Breast augmentation increases breast size and improves shape using saline or silicone implants selected during consultation. This procedure enhances naturally small breasts, restores volume after pregnancy or weight loss, and improves symmetry while creating balanced, natural-looking proportions tailored to your anatomy and goals.
Breast augmentation and mastopexy combines implant placement with a breast lift to restore volume and elevate sagging breasts. This procedure removes excess skin, may reposition the nipples, improves symmetry, and enhances fullness in a single surgery tailored to your anatomy and goals.
A breast lift, or mastopexy, elevates and reshapes sagging breasts by removing excess skin and repositioning the nipple-areolar complex. This procedure restores a more youthful contour, may reduce enlarged areolas, improves symmetry, and enhances firmness without significantly increasing breast volume.
Breast reconstruction restores breast shape, size, and symmetry following mastectomy, lumpectomy, trauma, or congenital conditions. This procedure may involve implants, your own tissue, or a combination approach and can be performed immediately or in stages to rebuild natural contours and support emotional recovery.
Breast reduction, or reduction mammaplasty, removes excess breast tissue, fat, and skin to reduce size and weight. This procedure relieves back, neck, and shoulder discomfort, may reposition the nipples and resize the areolas, and improves overall breast proportion and daily mobility.
En bloc capsulectomy removes a breast implant and the surrounding scar capsule together as one intact unit. This technique is often chosen for capsular contracture, implant rupture, or suspected breast implant illness and may be combined with reshaping procedures depending on patient goals.
Fat grafting to the breasts, also known as autologous fat transfer, uses liposuction to harvest fat from areas such as the abdomen or thighs. The purified fat is injected to create modest volume, improve symmetry, and refine contour without implants.
Implant deflation and removal addresses saline implants that have lost volume or are being removed by choice. This minor procedure is typically performed in-office under local anesthesia through a small incision, with optional contouring or lifting recommended based on your goals.
Periareolar mastopexy, also known as a donut lift, uses a circular incision around the areola to remove excess skin and reposition the nipple. This in-office procedure, performed under local anesthesia, corrects mild sagging and may resize the areola for improved symmetry and contour.

Breast augmentation is one of the most commonly performed breast surgeries. Many patients seek this procedure to enhance size, restore volume after pregnancy or weight changes, and improve overall breast proportion.
Recovery varies depending on the procedure performed. Most patients return to light activities within one to two weeks, with gradual improvement over several weeks as swelling subsides and healing progresses.
Discomfort levels vary by procedure and individual tolerance. Most patients experience temporary soreness and tightness that can be managed with prescribed medication and proper postoperative care instructions.
Surgical time depends on the specific procedure and whether additional techniques are performed. Most breast surgeries are completed within several hours, followed by monitored recovery before returning home.
