Wishing for a fuller, more youthful bustline?
Allan J. Parungao, MD, FACS
Have you noticed that your breasts have lost volume and started to sag after having kids? You're not alone.
“Nancy,” a 29-year-old mother of two, longed to restore her youthful figure. “I wanted to have the firmness and fullness I had in my breasts before I had children,” she says.
Breast lift cures drooping;
Implants restore volume
Women like Nancy have two challenges: breast sagging or ptosis (pronounced TOE sis) and lost volume. In cases like hers, breast lift surgery combined with breast implants—a procedure known as augmentation mastopexy—can produce a fuller, more youthful bustline.
How does augmentation mastopexy work?
In this combined outpatient procedure, the breasts are raised, the nipples are repositioned and the areolas (the darker skin surrounding the nipple) may be reduced in size. Then saline or silicone implants are added to increase breast volume. Nancy chose
saline implants.
Nancy's breast lift was done with what is called a “lollipop incision” that circles the areola and extends vertically to the crease under the breast. The implants are then inserted through a tiny incision under
each breast.
‘What a difference!’
“My results look so natural!” says Nancy. “I wanted my breasts to look natural—not like I'd had implants. I just wanted to go back to the way I looked when I
was younger.”
When Nancy tried on a bikini top, she really saw the difference. “My breasts look so much better!” she says. “I don't have to make my bikini top really tight anymore to give my breasts that boost.
“I've always put my family first,” says Nancy. “Plastic surgery is something I did just for me. I'm newly single, and when I think about starting to date again, I have more confidence now. I'm more comfortable in my own skin.”

Dr. Parungao moves to Hinsdale, Naperville
Dr. Parungao has moved his practice from Oak Park to Hinsdale and Naperville to offer you a wider array of services. He is now in practice with Ricardo Izquierdo, MD, and Talmage Raine, MD, at the Hinsdale Center for Plastic Surgery.
The new Hinsdale and Naperville offices have a medical spa, Skin Elegance, and the Hinsdale office has a fully accredited private surgical facility. With advanced anesthesia methods, most surgery patients are awake, alert and on their way home as early as an hour

FDA approves first
eyelash-growing treatment
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has just approved Latisse, the first and only prescription treatment to make eyelashes grow longer, fuller and darker.
Latisse is made by Allergan, the industry leader that produces Botox and Juvéderm.
Dr. Parungao is one of the first physicians to offer Latisse, available by prescription only. “Simply apply Latisse like eyeliner at the base of your eyelashes; it works directly on the hair follicles,” he explains. “Use Latisse once a day for 16 weeks, then apply it a few times a week for maintenance.”
