BREAST AUGMENTATION

Schedule a Consult

Also known as augmentation mammoplasty, breast augmentation surgery involves using implants to fulfill your desire for fuller breasts or to restore breast volume lost after weight reduction or pregnancy. Implants also may be used to reconstruct a breast after mastectomy or injury. Breast augmentation surgery involves using breast implants or fat, referred to as fat transfer breast augmentation, to increase the size of your breasts or restore breast volume that has been lost after weight reduction or pregnancy. Breast augmentation is clinically referred to as augmentation mammaplasty.

Breast augmentation can:

Increase fullness and projection of your breasts

Improve the balance of your figure

Enhance your self-image and self-confidence

Breast implants may also be used for breast reconstruction after mastectomy or injury.

WHAT BREAST AUGMENTATION SURGERY WON’T DO

Breast augmentation does not correct severely drooping breasts. If you want your breasts to look fuller and to be lifted due to sagging, a breast lift may be required in conjunction with breast augmentation. Breast lifting can often be done at the same time as your augmentation or may require a separate operation. Your plastic surgeon will assist you in making this decision.

POST OPERATIVE CARE

  • Must wear post-op bra and support strap continually until seen for post-operative appointment at 1 week
  • No lifting over 10-15 pounds for 4 weeks
  • Minimize raising your arms above your shoulders for 2 weeks following surgery
  • Leave all post-operative dressings intact, they will be changed at your post-operative appointment
  • No shower until after post-operative appointment
  • No exertional activity or activities that may cause trauma to the check (i.e. boating) for at least 2 weeks
  • No swimming or baths for 4 weeks
  • May resume driving once you have discontinued using the prescription pain medication
  • May use ice/cold compresses on breast for 24 hours following surgery to help decrease swelling
  • Sleep with head elevated for 2 weeks
  • Drink plenty of water and have stool softeners available such as colace, as pain medications can cause constipation
