The Bellesoma® Method is a surgical procedure based on engineering and mathematical principles to lift or reduce the breast. This technique is designed to reshape and reposition the breast higher on the chest wall resulting in a youthful and perky appearance without many of the disadvantages found with the traditional techniques.

The Bellesoma Method does not require vertical scars which many women find unacceptable. The Bellesoma Method transfers the weight of the breast to the chest muscle, versus the breast’s skin envelope, with possible improvement of neck, back, and shoulder pain. Additionally, the chest muscle acts as the support for the breast, providing longer term stability for the lift or reduction. Lastly, an exciting benefit of the Bellesoma Method is that it uses a woman’s own breast tissue to reshape and reposition the breast creating a youthful and perky appearance without the need for implants.

We understand that innovation and change within plastic surgery can be met with skepticism. While we are sure your plastic surgeon means well, if you hear this, you may ask if they have actually seen a demonstration of our technology. Unfortunately, some surgeons have looked at our site and jumped to conclusions about Bellesoma (and even questioned the results) without really learning about it. Candidly, the information on our site is designed for consumers, not doctors. If your surgeon says this, you may encourage him/her to request a demonstration of our technology before passing judgment. Lastly, we believe our results speak for themselves and encourage consumers to read reviews from actual patients on sites like RealSelf.

The Bellesoma Method has been performed since 2010. Like any other innovation, there of course have been improvements over time and we can now accommodate women of most breast sizes. We are proud to say that over 600 women from around the world have had this procedure.

Augmentation is a question of size. If you already like how your breasts look in a bra, but not the appearance out of one, then a lift is in order – not augmentation. If you desire to have more size when in a bra, then an augmentation (potentially with a lift) is recommended. We have found that some women sought out implants to improve the appearance of their breasts simply because they did not want to have the vertical scars associated with a lift. Unfortunately, the additional weight of the implants will actually exacerbate the ptotis (sagging) over time. Fortunately, with the Bellesoma Method, women do not have to make such a tradeoff anymore.

The Bellesoma Method has been performed on women ranging from ages 17 to 76. This procedure has evolved to accommodate many breast sizes who are seeking to improve their appearance, self confidence or relief from pain associated with large breasts. We would, of course, need to review your medical history to confirm that there are no contraindications. This would be done during the free consultation that is provided for all potential patients.

While the largest number of breast surgeries are augmentations, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, approximately 132,000 breast lifts and reductions were performed in the U.S. in 2017. Since 2000, the number of breast lifts have increased by almost 350% while the number of breast reduction procedures has remained relatively the same. We believe that with our improvements in both of these procedures that even more women will benefit because the tradeoffs are much more limited than with older/traditional methods.

Absolutely. Many women take advantage of the efficiency in surgical costs and recovery time to have additional procedures performed in combination with a breast lift or reduction. Dr. Horndeski’s skill, attention to detail and unique approach to surgery makes a tummy tuck, lip lift, face lift, liposuction, etc. a very common decision to make in conjunction with breast surgery.
