About the Procedure

What Is a Breast Augmentation?

Breast augmentation, sometimes referred to as a “breast aug” by patients, involves using breast implants to increase the size of your breasts. This procedure is good for patients who would like to increase fullness and projection of their breasts, improve balance of their breast and hip contours, or enhance their self-confidence.

Fullness & Projection

Increase fullness and projection of your breasts using breast implants.

Balanced Contours

Improve balance of breast and hip contours.

Self-Confidence

Enhance your self-image and self-confidence.

The Procedure

One of the Most Popular Cosmetic Surgeries

Breast augmentation is one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries performed in the United States. This outpatient procedure is usually performed under general anesthesia, meaning you will be asleep during the surgery.

The length of the surgery depends on factors such as the size and type of implant being used as well as your individual anatomy. Incisions are made in inconspicuous places so that scars will be hidden.

Recovery & Results

Healing on Your Schedule

After your surgery, you will likely feel some pain and discomfort, which can be managed with medication. Swelling and bruising usually subside after a few weeks.

It is important to follow all of your surgeon’s post-operative instructions to ensure a successful recovery.
