Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure to enlarge and enhance the size and shape of the breast with the use of breast implants.

How are the breast implants placed?

The implants can be placed in front or behind the muscle. The incisions for placement of the implants can be transaxillary (under the armpit), periareolar (around the nipple) or inframammary (in the fold of the breast). The best position and incision will vary for each patient. We are also employing the latest endoscopic technology by minimally invasively placing the implants through small incisions.

What type of breast implant is best?

Many different implant styles exist ranging from round to tear drop (anatomical) shaped with a variety of dimensions. Implants can be textured or smooth walled. The type and size of an implant will depend on the characteristics of the individual breast to be augmented as well as the patient's goals. We offer both silicone and saline breast implants.

Are breast implants safe?

Some women with silicone breasts implants have reported symptoms similar to certain types of diseases that affect the body's immune system (autoimmune disorders). Presently, research has not found any clear link between silicone breast implants and autoimmune disorders or connective tissue disorders. Studies are ongoing investigating any possible link. Other possible complications of breast augmentation include: deflation of implant, asymmetry between the breast, infection and bleeding. If a saline implant breaks or deflates the saline (salt water) is absorbed by your body with no adverse affect. Capsular contraction in which the tissue surrounding the implant contracts can result in hard or distorted appearing breast. However, the incidence of capsular contraction is low especially with saline implants.
