At The Aesthetic Institute of West Florida, we believe that every woman deserves to feel confident about her body. Breast Augmentation enhances the size and curvature of a woman's breasts to help her feel self-assured and feminine. The surgery is performed on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia. The available incision options are under the breast, around the areola or in the armpit. Implant placement can be above or under the pectoral muscle, and various styles of implants of saline and cohesive silicone gel are offered. Dr. Schaffer is a participant in studies sponsored by two major breast implant companies to determine the safety of the cohesive silicone gel implant, nicknamed the "gummy bear" implant. Now many breast implant patients have a choice as to which filler is used in their implants. Differences in techniques are tailored to each patient's wishes and anatomical needs.

Breast augmentation patients can expect recovery side effects that include sensitive and swollen breasts, some soreness and possibly a temporary period of decreased nipple sensation. Over the three to six week period following breast surgery, most side effects will disappear. Any woman can achieve a natural looking, sculpted appearance.
