BREAST AUGMENTATION
Breast Augmentation surgery is one of the most common procedures performed in our office. Many women are unhappy with their breast’s size, shape, and symmetry and come to our board-certified plastic surgeons to help. We specialize in the rapid recovery approach to ensure your recovery is comfortable and quick. With minimal tissue dissection and correct sizing, you can return to your everyday life quicker.
BENEFITS OF A BREAST AUGMENTATION
INCREASE BREAST SIZE
A breast augmentation can be performed on women with naturally small breasts, or even breasts that have lost volume due to age or other life circumstances. This procedure can give women the volume they desire.
GIVES BREAST SHAPE
This procedure can address mild sagging and even genetic issues such as tubular breasts and give them more shape. A breast augmentation can be natural-appearing or more full and dramatic.
CORRECTS ASYMMETRY
Nobody has perfectly symmetrical breasts; however, a breast augmentation can help correct asymmetry issues with implants.
INCREASE SELF CONFIDENCE
Having a breast augmentation can help increase confidence. It gives women the size they have always desired and makes them proud to show them off.

VECTRA 3-D IMAGING
Vectra 3-D Imaging brings your results to life right before your eyes. This innovative machine allows you to see the possible outcome of your surgery from different angles. Vectra 3D recreates your anatomy with your proposed changes and enables you to compare yours before and after simulation.
You can go through various options until you find the perfect size and shape for you. The Vectra 3-D allows patients to see their implant potential results and also allows facial and body cosmetic procedures to see their results. In addition, this technology will enable patients to get an idea of how their new bodies will appear after surgery.
INCISION AND IMPLANT PLACEMENT
CONSULTATION PROCESS
You will discuss your procedure goals and options during your consultation with one of our four surgeons. After that, your surgeon will recommend a procedure plan that aligns with your goals and fits your specific case needs. Finally, if you are ready to schedule your consultation, click the button below.
INCISION LOCATION
Inframammary Incision- This is the most common incision placement. It is located at the base of the breast, the crease between your breast and your chest. This location has the least complications and easily hides the scar.
Periareolar Incision- The Periareolar Incision is made around the areola.
Axillary Incision- This incision is made in the natural crease of the armpit and is acceptable for some patients.
IMPLANT LOCATION
Sub-glandular: If you have a lot of breast tissue, a sub-glandular placement is right for you. Sub-glandular or over the muscle placement, the implants are placed directly behind your breast tissue but above your pectoral muscles.
Submuscular: This implant placement type is perfect for women with little to no breast tissue. Here the implant is placed beneath their pectoral muscles to help disguise the edges of the implants making your results appear more natural.
IMPLANT FILLER
Saline: We offer saline-filled implants that can be manipulated during surgery to achieve the desired result.
Silicone: In addition, we also offer a wide variety of silicone-filled implants. These implants offer a more natural look and feel, and oftentimes have fewer complications after surgery.
IMPLANT SIZE
Both types of implants come in a variety of sizes. Whether you are wanting to go on the conservative side of implants or a larger-sized implant, you can customize and see how you will look using our 3D Imaging System.
BREAST AUGMENTATION RECOVERY
In the first 24-48 hours of recovery, patients will experience soreness and tightness of the chest similar to breast engorgement with breastfeeding or after a hard workout.
By the time one week rolls around most all of the pain will subside.
At six weeks you are cleared for full workouts and activities. Although, some patients can work out at three weeks. By this point, your breasts will begin to drop to a more natural position.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Does our office have computer imaging to demonstrate what I will look like?

Does it cost more if I want to go with a larger implant?
No, the cost stays the same.
Can I do a breast augmentation without a lift?
During your consultation with the surgeon, they will examine and take measurements to see if you are a candidate for an augmentation only.

An implant will not lift the breast but it will help fill the volume loss giving it a perkier appearance.
