I am a New York Licensed and an Israeli Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. I serve as the Chief of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at Mount Sinai Elmhurst Hospital after completing two specialty fellowship programs: a reconstructive microsurgery fellowship specializing in aesthetic and reconstructive breast surgery at Lenox Hill Hospital, and a Lymphedema surgery fellowship program at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
Dr. Wiser is the best surgeon ever very professional. My experience with Dr. Wiser from start to finish was great. Not to mention his entire team. I remember my very first conversation with Helen his Practice Manager she was so responsive. After my initial conversation with Helen and my consultation with Dr. Wiser, I knew he was the best option for me. I did a breast reduction and lift. I was very please with the service from the day of surgery to after. I really appreciated the follow-up calls and check up after surgery. I recently had my two-weeks post opt appointment and Im happy to say that I am 100% satisfied with my results. I am getting so many compliments and I feel way much better overall. I couldn't be any more happier with the outcome. From the bottom of my heart thank you so Dr. Wiser, Helen and the entire team. Choosing Dr. Wiser as my surgeon was the best decision ever. I highly recommend him. Не simply the BEST!!!!!!
Dr. Wiser is amazing! I had been thinking about a breast reduction for years and finally decided to do it. I researched a bunch of doctors and was 100% I would only be comfortable with a female doctor but from the first visit knew I would be continuing with Dr. Wiser. His office made everything extremely easy and the process could not have been any smoother. Не was experienced, professional and just a great guy who made me feel comfortable during all the steps of the surgery! Best decision I've made, 100% recommend Dr. Wiser.
Your breasts are a defining feature of your shapely figure, but sometimes they're too large or heavy for your frame. The constant weight can become a source of discomfort, but breast reduction surgery can give you a balanced, lighter chest by removing excess fat and tissue that weighs your breasts down. Women of all ages choose breast reduction surgery for both cosmetic and medical reasons and enjoy lasting results that improve not just their confidence but their quality of life as well. Some common concerns this procedure can address include:
Dr. Wiser is a specialty-trained plastic surgeon able to create stunning results accentuate your natural curves. With careful preoperative planning and state-of-the-art 3D simulation technology, you'll be able to visualize your results before surgery and determine the breast size that's right for you. You'll also be involved in every step of the decision-making process and Dr. Wiser will be available to go over any questions or concerns that may arise. When you choose Dr. Wiser, you're selecting a highly credential surgeon committed to providing the personalized plastic surgery experience you deserve. Backed by a dedication to improve the confidence and quality of life of each patient that walks through his doors, it's no surprise why Dr. Wiser is quickly becoming New York's top preferred choice for women seeking breast reduction surgery.
Women seek breast reduction surgery for a number of reasons. Breasts that are too large can lead to neck and back pain, emotional distress and lifestyle challenges that make certain activities difficult to perform. Breast reduction surgery can also be used to reverse the effects of pregnancy, aging or weight loss, and remove loose skin and tissue to restore a firmer, more natural appearance. Whatever your reason for decreasing the size of your breasts, Dr. Wiser will create a customized procedure plan that meets your needs. He also takes the time to get to know you and understand your goals and concerns while explaining each step of the procedure, ensuring you have everything you need to make an informed decision.
Breast reduction surgery decreases the size of your breasts by removing extra skin, tissue and fat. This is accomplished using strategically-placed incisions that allow Dr. Wiser to access the surgical site with minimal scarring. The volume of your breasts will be reduced with care and precision to ensure symmetrical, pleasing results, but the postoperative shape of your breasts will be determined by your natural contours. Dr. Wiser uses advanced 3D technology to help you visualize your results before your procedure, giving you clear insight so you can feel confident about achieving your goals.
After breast reduction surgery, you'll feel like a weight has been lifted off your chest — literally. The removal of excess fat and tissue will lighten your breasts, alleviating many of the painful symptoms or limitations you felt prior to surgery. Many women also report improved confidence and self-esteem after a breast reduction, with a better-proportioned figure that makes it easier to exercise, find clothing that fits and feel comfortable in their skin.
Since breast reduction surgery sculpts firmer, lighter breasts by removing existing fat and tissue, your results will be 100 percent natural. That means no fillers, implants or other synthetic materials, so your breasts will retain their natural shape and contours. It also means that your breasts will also continue to change in response to aging, weight gain or pregnancy. If you're planning to become pregnant, discuss your options with Dr. Wiser to understand how this may impact your results. Breast reduction may also affect your ability to breastfeed and some women choose to wait until they're done having children to undergo the procedure.
Whatever your future holds, Dr. Wiser's goal is to give you long-lasting results that you'll love. He'll work closely with you to achieve the right-sized breasts that fit your body and your life.
Scheduling your procedure at the right time can not only have a big influence on the longevity of your results, but also ensure you're able to rest as your body heals. Most patients can expect a recovery period of two to four weeks, but each woman is different and Dr. Wiser will provide specific instructions based on your procedure. If you have any questions or concerns after your surgery, he will be available to address them to ensure your comfort throughout the recovery process. With a patient-centered approach and dedication to helping you reach your goals, Dr. Wiser's focus will be on you every step of the way for a smooth recovery and warm, personalized experience unlike any other.
The recovery process for breast reduction surgery usually takes about 2 to 4 weeks. During this time, it's important to follow post-operative instructions provided by Dr. Wiser to ensure proper healing.
Yes, breast reduction surgery can often alleviate chronic back pain caused by the weight and size of large breasts. By reducing the volume of breast tissue, the procedure can help improve posture and alleviate strain on the back.
Breast reduction surgery may impact your ability to breastfeed. However, techniques used by Dr. Wiser aim to preserve breastfeeding function whenever possible.
While non-surgical alternatives such as physical therapy or specialized bras may provide temporary relief, they are unlikely to significantly reduce breast size. Breast reduction surgery is often the most effective long-term solution for reducing breast size and associated symptoms
Breast reduction surgery is typically performed on individuals who have reached full breast development, which is usually around the age of 18 or older. However, each case is unique, and Dr. Wiser will assess your specific situation during a consultation.
Yes, breast reduction surgery can help improve the appearance of sagging breasts by removing excess tissue and lifting the breasts to a more youthful position. However, additional procedures like a breast lift may be recommended for more significant sagging.
The results of breast reduction surgery are typically long-lasting. However, factors such as weight fluctuations, pregnancy, and aging can affect breast shape and size over time. Maintaining a stable weight and adopting a healthy lifestyle can help preserve the results.
