AUGMENTATION

Breast augmentation is a cosmetic surgery procedure to increase breast size and enhance breast shape, typically through the placement of silicone or saline breast implants. From a cosmetic surgeon’s perspective, the ultimate goal of breast augmentation is to enhance a client’s natural proportions and create a more symmetrical, aesthetically pleasing breast profile. The exact procedure is tailored to meet a woman’s individual needs.

Benefits of having a Breast Augmentation

Breast Augmentation is one of the most effective procedures to correct noticeable breast asymmetry, and breast implants can be used to help correct tuberous breast deformities. Other common goals of breast augmentation:

•Restoring breast fullness lost after pregnancy & breastfeeding or major weight loss

•Feeling more confident in a swimsuit, underwear, or without clothes

•Adding balance to better complement curvy hips

•Improving self-image with a more feminine chest

How to choose a qualified surgeon?

If you’re considering Breast Augmentation, the most important decision you’ll make is who will perform your procedure. When you visit a cosmetic surgeon, ask how many breast augmentations he or she has performed, and be sure to look at plenty of before and after photos during your consultation—this will help you get a feel for a cosmetic surgeon’s aesthetic style. And not forget to verify they are Board Certified Plastic Surgeons.

Frequently Asked Questions
