Breast Augmentation - Enhance Size & Shape
Breast augmentation (augmentation mammoplasty) enhances breast size, improves symmetry, and restores volume lost after pregnancy or weight loss using FDA-approved silicone or saline implants. This is consistently the most popular cosmetic surgery worldwide, with 300,000+ procedures performed annually in the US alone.
We use only premium implants (Mentor, Motiva, Allergan) with lifetime warranties, and our surgeons tailor every detail - size, shape, placement, incision - to your unique body proportions and aesthetic goals.
Why Women Choose Breast Augmentation
- Small Breasts: Want larger, fuller bust
- Asymmetry: One breast smaller than other
- Post-Pregnancy Volume Loss: Breastfeeding deflated breasts
- Weight Loss Deflation: Lost breast fullness after losing weight
- Confidence: Feel more feminine, proportionate, attractive
Implant Choices: The 4 Key Decisions
1. Silicone vs Saline
Silicone (Most Popular)
- ✓ Feels more natural (like real breast tissue)
- ✓ Less rippling visible
- ✓ Available in cohesive gel ("gummy bear")
- • Requires MRI every 2-3 years to check for silent rupture
Saline
- ✓ If rupture, body absorbs saline harmlessly
- ✓ Smaller incision (filled after insertion)
- • Feels less natural, more firm
- • Higher rippling risk (especially thin patients)
2. Round vs Teardrop (Anatomical)
Round: More fullness in upper breast (cleavage emphasis). Cannot rotate out of position. Most popular choice (90% of patients).
Teardrop: More volume in lower breast (natural slope). Can rotate and look unnatural. Best for very athletic/thin patients seeking subtle enhancement.
3. Size Selection
Size measured in cubic centimeters (cc), NOT cup sizes (varies by brand). Range 200cc-800cc.
- • Small/Natural: 200-350cc (adds 1 cup size)
- • Medium/Balanced: 350-500cc (adds 1.5-2 cup sizes) - most popular
- • Large/Statement: 500-800cc (adds 2-3 cup sizes)
Try Before: We provide sizers (rice-filled implants) to wear in bra at home to visualize size before surgery
4. Profile (Projection)
Low Profile: Wide base, minimal forward projection (natural athletic look)
Moderate Profile: Balanced width and projection (most versatile)
High Profile: Narrow base, maximum forward projection (dramatic cleavage, best for narrow chest)
Implant Placement Options
Submuscular (Under Muscle)
- ✓ Most natural look (muscle covers implant upper edge)
- ✓ Less visible rippling
- ✓ Lower capsular contracture risk
- ✓ Better mammogram accuracy
- • More painful recovery (muscle manipulation)
- • Implant may move with chest flexing
Subglandular (Over Muscle)
- • Easier surgery, faster recovery
- • Better for bodybuilders (no movement with flexing)
- • Implant sits in natural position
- • More visible rippling (thin patients)
- • Higher capsular contracture risk
- • Can interfere with mamm ograms
Incision Options
Inframammary (Under Breast Crease) - Most Popular
4-5cm scar hidden in natural fold. Best access for precise placement. Our #1 recommended approach.
Periareolar (Around Nipple)
Scar blends with areola edge. Good for simultaneous lift. Risk: slight nipple sensation changes.
Transaxillary (Armpit)
No breast scars. Limited access for adjustments. Requires endoscope. Higher revision rate.
Recovery Timeline
Surgical bra on 24/7. Moderate pain (feels like chest muscle strain). Breasts swollen, sitting high on chest. Pain controlled with medication.
Pain 50% improved. Can return to desk work day 5-7. Avoid lifting >10lbs. Breasts still swollen and high ("boob greed" phase - look too big, will settle).
Implants begin "dropping" (settling into lower breast pocket). Swelling decreasing. Wear sports bra. Light cardio allowed.
Resume all exercise including chest workouts. Wear underwire bras. Breasts softening as swelling resolves.
Final Result: Im plants fully settled in correct position. Soft, natural feel. Scars fading to thin lines.
Important: Implants Are Not Lifetime Devices
While modern implants have lifetime manufacturer warranties, expect eventual replacement:
- Average lifespan: 10-20 years before replacement needed
- Reasons for replacement: Rupture, capsular contracture, size change desire, normal wear
- 20-30% of patients need revision surgery within 10 years
- Warranty covers implant replacement (manufacturing defect), NOT surgery costs
