Practice Information

Our practice is best characterized by the phrase “innovative quality patient care.” Dr. Becker has always been on the cutting edge of new technology, often helping to create it. Quality care starts with the patient. Carefully listening to their wishes and transforming those wishes into reality. This transition occurs with assistance of a highly competent, caring staff working in a safe surgical environment.

We offer out-of-town patients assistance with travel costs. Overnight facilities are available to out-of-town patients.

Use of Adjustable Implants to Treat Breast Implant Complications
Complications following saline breast implant surgery are often related to the physical characteristics of saline verses that of breast tissue. Saline is heavier than tissue, and when confined to a flexible silicone bag it has more of a tendency to ripple compared to a silicone gel. Saline implants therefore have a greater tendency to become ptotic (sag) especially when placed above the muscle.

Dissatisfaction with size, asymmetry and shape usually manifests several months after surgery.

Capsular contraction is a result of the body’s reaction to the implant. The treatment of these complications is often difficult and not always successful.

A new implant has recently been FDA approved for use under an adjunct study. Offering many advantages over standard implants, the Smooth Becker 50/50 implant is an adjustable implant that contains 50% silicone gel and 50% saline.

The implant is adjustable after surgery by means of a small injection dome that allows the inner saline compartment to be increased or decreased.

The advantages of the Smooth Becker 50/50 implant include:

  • Post-operative adjustability
  • Ability to stretch scar tissue
  • Ability to modify the shape after surgery
  • Ability to change the size of the implant after surgery to the size desired by the patient and to match more accurately the size of the opposite breast in cases of asymmetry

Smooth Shell

  • More natural feel
  • More elasticity of shell
  • Less rippling

50% Silicone

  • More natural feel
  • Lighter in weight, less tendency towards sagging
