BREAST AUGMENTATION
Enhance your breasts, beautifully and naturally
ABOUT BREAST AUGMENTATION SURGERY
In an hour or less, a breast augmentation will take care of almost all of your breast concerns. It addresses many issues at once by improving the size, shape, contour, and symmetry of your breasts. But is it right for you? If you have realistic expectations, our office can help. Breast augmentation is amazingly transformative and the results are immediate. Most importantly, it can help you look and feel your very best!
Candidates
If you are healthy enough for elective surgery and you struggle with issues that a breast augmentation can fix, like the size, shape, and even contour of your breasts, you are likely a candidate. Remember, the FDA requires you to be 22 years old or older to receive silicone breast implants. For those of you younger than 22 years of age, saline breast implants are a great alternative.
Areas Treated
The three main goals of this surgery are to improve the size, shape, and symmetry of your breasts. If your breast size differs from one side to the other, we can treat each side differently to create more balance. Although your breasts are the sole focus of this surgery, breast augmentation can also make a big difference in your overall body contour by improving your body balance.
Before Surgery
It is important to be in good health before surgery. A current mammogram may be required. If you have any chronic health condition, such as high blood pressure, surgical clearance from your primary care physician is often obtained before surgery. Basic blood work and possibly an EKG are indicated when general anesthesia is planned. Most importantly, we will create a comprehensive surgical and postoperative care plan at your preoperative appointment so you can adequately prepare for surgery.
Recovery
The first few days after your breast augmentation can be tough but manageable. You will have some limitations on the range of motion of your arms. Making a recovery station before surgery is helpful and you should move frequently used items to counter height for easy access after surgery. You should plan for help with household chores such as vacuuming, laundry, and cleaning. Heavy lifting, aggressive exercise, and underwire bras are not recommended until at least 4 weeks after surgery.
