For many women, breast size is an important part of feeling good, desirable, and normal. Having a breast augmentation procedure can greatly improve self-esteem for many women and drastically improve the way she views herself. Breast augmentation is one of the most frequently performed cosmetic procedures in the United States today. It is used to enlarge small breasts, underdeveloped breasts, or breasts that have decreased in size after child bearing.
Upon examination, the doctor will discuss with you options regarding the type of implants (smooth or textured, round or teardrop) and the type of insertion approach: underarm, under the breast or under the nipple, over or under the muscle or through the umbilical belly button. Rest is recommended for the first few days following surgery. A post-surgical bra is worn for several weeks. You may experience some degree of swelling, bruising and tenderness. These symptoms subside in a short time. Most patients are back to work within one week and back to regular physical activities in 4-6 weeks.
Breast Augmentation, through the use of saline-filled implants, offers a safe and practical way to enhance your body. Contact our office for a professional consultation. |
