What is Breast Augmentation?

Breast Augmentation creates a larger fuller breast through surgical placement of breast implants. Our board-certified plastic surgeon will discuss your goals, expectations and options during your free consultation.

Who is it for?
There are many reasons that women choose breast augmentation. Some of these are:

  • Enlarging their breast to help make the body more proportional.
  • Balancing breast of different sizes.
  • Reshaping or enlarging breasts post lactation.

What to expect
The results are immediate. Recovery time is normally 2-4 weeks, during which your scars will continue to flatten and fade. Complete remodeling of the tiny incision scars can take up to a year. We use only saline filled implants for safety reasons. If they should leak or rupture, your body will safely absorb the fluid with no harmful effects.

What is a Breast Lift?

A breast lift reshapes the breast by removing excess skin and contouring the areola if it is too large.

Who is it for?
Loose sagging breasts are caused by weight fluctuation, pregnancy, aging, heredity and other factors. This procedure is only performed on healthy, weight stable, non-smokers with a positive outlook.

What to expect
The results are immediate. Recovery time is normally 2-4 weeks, during which your scars will continue to flatten and fade. Complete remodeling of the tiny incision scars can take up to a year.
