Breast Augmentation

Breast Augmentation

Breast Augmentation surgery is the most rewarding and life affirming cosmetic surgery patients can experience. Throughout history, the breast has taken on the embodiment of the female form and come to symbolize femininity and a youthful healthiness.  More recently, the upper part of the breast is exposed for other to see and this fullness lends an image of vitality, pride and assertiveness.

Most women who seek consultation have been contemplating breast enhancement surgery for quite some time. It may be that simply the breast has not developed to the volume necessary to fill the upper part of the breast, to create cleavage and to provide projection for the best shape.  Cosmetic surgeons use implants to create fullness, cleavage and projection with results that are natural and very long lasting.

Many women lose breast volume and shape to their breast after childbirth and breast feeding.  Breast implant surgery can also help to not only restore volume but also to greatly improve shape and sometimes improve shape to better than it was prior to pregnancy.

Breast implants can be life changing so why not explore the alternatives with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon?

Breast Implants Over or Under the Muscle?

Good question. When considering breast augmentation, you have four central decisions to make.

  1. The size of the breast implant;
  2. The choice of saline vs. silicone breast implants;
  3. Whether to place the implants over vs. under the muscle and
  4. The location of the incision.

Dr. Newman will talk to you extensively about this choice of breast enlargement (boob job). When doing breast augmentation, we suggest sub muscular (under the muscle) placement. Sub muscular is best for saline implants or when your natural breast tissue is thin. Choose subglandular (over the muscle) for silicone implants or require a breast lift. For many women, either choice is a good option.
