Dr. Kourosh Tavakoli Celebrates More Than 3,500 Successful Breast Procedures
Breast implants first became available in 1895 when surgeon Vincenz Czerny created the first implant using adipose tissue from a patient to create a breast. The implant repaired asymmetry of the patient's breast that was created through the removal of a tumor. "Women now choose to have breast implant surgery for a number of reasons, including cosmetic. The skill of the plastic surgeon plays a large role in the success of the surgery so women must take care when choosing their surgeon," Dr. Tavakoli declares.
