Contributions to Cosmetic Breast Surgery Dr. Metcalf has a background in anesthesia, family practice, and general surgery. He has performed cosmetic breast surgery for 33 years and specialized in the axillary approach primarily since 1989. For the past four years he has limited his practice to cosmetic and reconstructive breast surgery. He has developed the internal mastopexy procedure, which allows for a breast lift without conventional scars. He also pioneered such techniques as: Axillary subfascial approach to breast augmentation; elevation and repair of the inframammary fold without an incision; repair of synmastia both internally and externally; performing implantation surgery on patients with Poland's syndrome; the prevention and treatment of seroma; and the prevention and management of rippling and detect ability of breast implants. He has consulted with other cosmetic breast surgeons from all over the world, including the northern and southern hemispheres of America, Europe, Asia and Australia. Dr. Metcalf has developed many other original techniques for the benefit of breast implant patients. He is considered at this time to be the world's most experienced breast implant surgeon, and has shared his knowledge and expertise with more surgeons of the society through personal observation and instruction than any other surgeon in the world. He has been a pioneering leader in the Free Surgery program of the society, which offers reconstruction of the breast to women who have lost their natural breast due to cancer, or who do not have insurance and otherwise would would not be able to afford reconstruction of the breast and nipple. One of his grateful patients, who had cosmetic reconstructive surgery, who could not afford to have it done and was done by Dr. Metcalf without any cost to her wrote to Dr. Metcalf and the Breast Society, " You not only gave me back my breast, you gave me back my life."
