'''Mammoplasty''' refers to a plastic surgery [[surgery|surgical procedure]] on the breast, to alter the shape or form of the breast.
Most commonly, it refers to procedures such as breast enlargement or [[augmentation mammoplasty]] ,
breast lift or [[mastopexy]], and breast reduction or [[reduction mammoplasty]] procedures. 
Mammoplasty procedures can also be combined; for example, breast lift and augmentation can be performed in one or two stages to achieve both enhancement of breast size and a lifted and tighter breast form.


'''Mammoplasty''' can refer to the [[surgery|surgical procedure]] to insert cheek implants or [[augmentation mammoplasty]], an enlarging of the [[breast]]s via [[breast implant|implants]].  It most often refers to the latter.
