What Is Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation is a popular plastic surgery treatment sought out by women all over the country. This procedure helps women achieve natural-looking results using improved techniques and materials. It can also empower breast cancer survivors to look and feel great again.
Breast Augmentation Methods
When it comes to breast augmentation, there is no one-size-fits-all. Every case is different based on your needs, preferences, and budget. The most common methods for breast augmentation use implants or natural augmentation with fat cells.
Breast Implants allow for smaller, more discreet incisions, and limited handling of the implants themselves. This can reduce potential post-treatment complications. Saline, Silicone Gel, and Highly Cohesive Silicone “Gummy Bear” implants are your material options. There are differences in cost, feel, and incision requirements that you need to consider. Your cosmetic surgeon will help you find the right implant type that fits your needs.
Natural Augmentation uses your fat cells to increase the size of your breasts. The surgeon removes cells from other areas with liposuction. These cells are purified and then added to the breasts. This process is ideal for touch-ups after breast cancer diagnosis. They are also useful for small-scale breast enlargement.
The placement of breast implants can be completed at the following sites: armpit, areola, or lower fold of the breast. With our technique for minimally-invasive breast implant placement, you can expect scars to fade well with time. Your plastic surgeon will discuss your incision options with you during treatment planning.
Who Is A Good Candidate For Breast Augmentation?
The best candidate for breast augmentation is typically a healthy person without significant medical issues, and exhibits one or more of these concerns:
- Needs to improve symmetry between the breasts
- Lost breast volume after pregnancy, breastfeeding, or weight loss
- Wants to enhance the breast shape
- Needs to reposition the nipples and areola
- Has issues with the fit of clothing or swimwear
- Looking to boost self-confidence
