What is Breast Augmentation surgery?

Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that alters the size and shape of the breast for cosmetic or aesthetic reasons. Breast augmentation may include enlarging the breast with breast implants or fat transfer to the breasts. Or it may be changing the shape of the breast through a breast lift with or without breast implants.

How does Breast Augmentation surgery work?

Breast augmentation surgery involves increasing breast size and improving shape using implants. The procedure starts with general anesthesia to ensure comfort. The surgeon makes small incisions, commonly under the breast or around the areola, to insert implants. Implants are placed either under the breast tissue or beneath the chest muscle, depending on individual goals and anatomy. After positioning the implants, the incisions are closed with sutures or adhesive strips.

Breast Augmentation FAQs
  • How long does a Breast Augmentation procedure take?

    A breast augmentation procedure typically takes about 1 to 2 hours. The exact duration can vary based on factors such as the complexity of the surgery, the type of implants used, and whether any additional procedures are performed.

  • What is the recovery time for a Breast Augmentation?

    Each person will experience a different recovery from breast implant surgery as everyone heals at a different rate. Following breast surgery, you will wear a compression garment for one month to help reduce post-operative swelling. In addition, you will be asked to refrain from lifting overhead at that time. Swelling will gradually subside in two to three weeks, resulting in a more natural look. In some cases, it may take up to 12 weeks or longer. Depending on your occupation, you may find that you are able to return to work within a week of having surgery.

  • How safe are breast implants?

    Breast augmentation is one of the most commonly performed surgical procedures throughout the United States. It has been rigorously researched and clinically improved over time to minimize the risk to patients while improving outcomes. As long as you have been cleared for surgery, there are no long-term risks for having breast implants. Rest assured that we take every precaution possible to minimize the risks associated with breast augmentation surgery and to avoid any complications.
