Smaller, discreet implants are almost always better.

Philosophy

According to New York plastic surgeon Daniel Maman, MD, FACS, seeking cosmetic enhancement should be both exciting and confidence-building. He sees patients in private practice at 1165 Park Avenue on the Upper East Side. He has established a distinguished, boutique-style practice specializing on both aesthetic and reconstructive surgery, with a specific focus on the breasts and body. As a highly sought-after surgeon, he is known for his impeccable breast lifts, augmentations, reductions, implant revisions and tummy tucks. More than 40 percent of his practice is dedicated to revision breast surgery, which includes replacing old implants, treating capsular contracture and performing breast lifts with implants. “Our website before-and-after gallery speaks for itself,” notes the surgeon.

Three things everyone should do before surgery

Research your surgeon, make sure your expectations are realistic and don’t shop for a surgeon based on the price!
How my profession has evolved

The spectrum of available implants has changed. In addition to saline and silicone implants, we now have “gummy bear” cohesive gel breast implants
How do you show patients you care post-treatment?

Every patient gets my personal cell phone number and my staff and I are in constant contact
How do you help your patients decide on size?

Every patient gets 3-D Vectra imaging, the most state-of-art, technologically advanced method for implant sizing
What three things should everyone do before surgery?

Seek out an expert in cosmetic breast surgery, research your surgeon and don’t shop for surgeon based on price
Your most common patient request

To be able to drop their kids off at school and for no one to know they have had implants
What are your most common procedures?

Breast augmentation, breast lift, breast reduction, correction of breast asymmetry, revisional breast augmentation, tummy tuck and rectus diastasis repair
What is your approach to breast augmentation?

For your breasts to look so natural that no one can tell you’ve had breast surgery
Three words that best describe me

Artistic, meticulous, detail-obsessed
What should everyone do before surgery?

Seek out an expert, do research and don’t make a decision based on price. Always look for quality of before and after photos reflecting natural, conservative results that aren’t overdone
What are you best known for?

Breast augmentations, breast lifts, breast reductions and tummy tucks. My practice is built on complex breast revision cases.
What procedures do you most frequently perform together?

Breast augmentation or lift with an abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) with liposuction, commonly
referred to as a “Mommy Makeover”
How do you choose the right breast implants?

I custom-order implants for each patient using photorealistic VECTRA® 3D imaging on every breast patient. There is both an art and science to choosing the right shape, texture, projection and gel type
What is your approach to breast augmentation?

I prefer smaller, natural-looking implants that are soft, supple and undetectable. No one should be able to tell that you’ve had implants or breast surgery
