Breast Augmentation
 |
Before and After Photos |
Women who desire larger breasts may wish to have a breast enlargement (augmentation) procedure. Breast augmentation may also be indicated for women who have one breast that is noticeably smaller than the other. Breast augmentation is intended to give the patient larger and more shapely breasts. A more positive self image may also be a result of breast enlargement.
Breast enlargement is done on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia. A small incision is made under the breast, around the areola, or in the armpit and a saline implant is inserted under the breast tissue or under the breast tissue and the underlying muscle. The patient will initially be bandaged to help hold the breasts in the correct position. Initial discomfort is controlled with oral medication. Light activities can be resumed in about 2 weeks, or as tolerated, and aerobic activities can be started in about 3-4 weeks.
