What Happens During the Procedure?

Your breast augmentation takes place under general anesthesia and typically lasts 1-2 hours. The procedure is carefully planned to achieve your desired results. Here’s the process:

1
Your surgeon makes a carefully placed incision in one of three locations
2
A pocket is created either under the chest muscle or breast tissue
3
The implant is carefully positioned for optimal symmetry and shape
4
Incisions are closed with layered sutures to minimize scarring
5
A surgical bra is applied to support your new shape during healing

Breast Enhancement Options & Surgical Procedures

Our board-certified plastic surgeons offer various breast augmentation techniques tailored to your body and aesthetic goals.

Silicone implants offer a more natural feel and movement, closely mimicking breast tissue. They’re pre-filled with cohesive silicone gel and come in various profiles. Saline implants are filled after placement, allowing smaller incisions. Both types are FDA-approved and safe. Your surgeon will help you choose based on your body type, lifestyle, and aesthetic goals.

This combined procedure adds volume while lifting sagging breasts, ideal for women after pregnancy or weight loss. The surgery places implants and removes excess skin in one procedure, creating fuller, perkier breasts. Recovery is similar to augmentation alone, with beautiful, youthful results that address both volume loss and ptosis (sagging).

Natural breast enhancement using your own fat harvested through liposuction from areas like abdomen or thighs. This technique provides modest size increase (typically 1 cup size) with completely natural results. Ideal for women wanting subtle enhancement without implants. The procedure combines body contouring benefits with breast augmentation.

Corrective surgery for previous breast augmentations, including implant replacement, size changes, or addressing complications. Our surgeons specialize in complex revisions, capsular contracture treatment, and implant removal with or without replacement. Each case is carefully evaluated to achieve your desired outcome.

Selecting the perfect implant involves considering your body frame, chest width, skin elasticity, and lifestyle. Our surgeons use 3D imaging and sizers during consultation to help visualize results. Implant profiles (low, moderate, high, extra-high) determine projection, while volume (measured in cc’s) determines size. We ensure natural-looking results that complement your body proportions.

Understanding your recovery helps you plan your return to normal activities:

Rest is essential. You’ll experience tightness and moderate discomfort managed with prescription pain medication. Keep arms below shoulder level and sleep elevated. Your coordinator checks on you daily.

Swelling peaks around day 3-4 then gradually decreases. Light activities like walking are encouraged. No lifting over 5 pounds. First follow-up with surgeon to check healing progress.

Most patients return to desk work at 1-2 weeks. Swelling continues decreasing. At 4 weeks, light exercise resumes. By 6 weeks, you can return to full activities including upper body workouts.

Implants fully settle into position. Incision scars continue fading. Breasts achieve their final shape and feel soft and natural. Annual check-ups recommended to monitor implant integrity.

Yes, when performed by board-certified surgeons in accredited facilities. Our partner clinics maintain international safety standards, use FDA-approved implants, and follow strict sterilization protocols.

Modern breast implants typically last 10-20 years. They don’t have an expiration date, but manufacturers recommend monitoring them with regular check-ups. Many women choose to replace them for aesthetic reasons before any issues arise.

Skilled surgeons place incisions in inconspicuous locations like the breast crease, around the areola, or in the armpit. With proper care and scar management, these fade significantly over 6-12 months and become barely noticeable.

Most women can breastfeed successfully after augmentation. The ability depends on the incision location and implant placement. Discuss your future plans with your surgeon to choose the best approach for preserving breastfeeding function.

The best implant depends on your body type, lifestyle, and aesthetic goals. During consultation, your surgeon will recommend silicone or saline, along with the ideal size and profile based on your chest measurements and desired outcome.

Light walking begins immediately to promote healing. Lower body workouts can resume at 2-3 weeks. Upper body exercises and high-impact activities should wait 6-8 weeks to allow proper healing and implant settling.
