Choosing to have plastic surgery

Choosing to have plastic surgery is an important decision especially breast augmentation surgery. Breast augmentation using saline breast implants or silicone breast implants is one of the most commonly requested aesthetic operations. Breast enhancement surgery is the enlargement of breast volume by the surgical placement of a saline breast implant, silicone breast implant or cohesive gel breast implant ( 410 implant ) .

Most women undergo this type of plastic surgery because they want to feel better about their appearance. Women choose to have breast augmentation surgery to improve their self image. Some feel dissatisfied because their breasts never developed to a size that meets their expectations. Others want to bring balance to a breast that is somewhat smaller than the other. Differences in size between the right and left breasts can be improved with the use of breast implants. Often women want the breast augmentation procedure to restore their natural breast volume, which may have decreased as a result of pregnancy, weight loss, aging or even breast cancer surgery.

During your initial consultation with your local plastic surgeon, you will be encouraged to discuss your desires, fears, expectations, and goals. The first and foremost objective is the creation of breasts that you envision yourself with. In addition to increasing breast size, your plastic surgeon will strive to create a more aesthetically pleasing breast by improving shape, balance, and proportion.

Depending on the desired shape, your plastic surgeon may choose a round or contoured implant for breast augmentation. Round breast implants tend to produce a more rounded appearance to the upper breast. Shaped breast implants are designed to reflect the slope of the breast.

Breast Augmentation Surgery in Vancouver WA

Silicone implants are now available! In Nov. 2006, the FDA approved the use of silicone implants for routine augmentation in women 22 years or older. The main advantages of silicone implants is a more natural feel and lower chance of visible and palpable wrinkling. Disadvantages of silicone implants are greater expense, inability to adjust size, and a longer scar to avoid damaging the implant during placement.

You still have the option of having saline implants. Should the implant rupture or leak, the saline is safely absorbed by the body and poses no health hazard. Implants may be pre-filled prior to placement, or slowly filled at the time of surgery through a self-sealing valve. Implant placement, type and size will be determined based on your breast anatomy, body type and desired increase in size, as well as your plastic surgeon’s judgment. Implant manufacturers occasionally introduce new styles and types of implants; there may be additional options available to you.

Breast implants have not been shown to impair breast health. Careful review of scientific research by independent grounds such as the National Academy of Sciences Institute of Medicine (IOM) has found no proven link between breast implants and auto-immune or other systemic diseases in women. Implants can, however, create subtle or more noticeable changes in the look and feel of your breasts. Capsular contracture, a condition that causes the naturally-forming scar tissue around a breast implant to contract, occurs in a variable percentage of patients and can make the breast feel firmer than normal. While this condition can be addressed surgically, correction is not always permanent.

You should be aware that breast implants are not guaranteed to last a lifetime and future surgery may be required to replace one or both implants. Pregnancy, weight loss and menopause may influence the appearance of augmented breasts over the course of a woman’s lifetime. Breast augmentation requires maintenance over time, including regular examinations for breast health and to evaluate the condition of your implants.

A mammogram may be recommended prior to your procedure to ensure breast health and serve as a baseline for future comparison. Following the procedure, mammography is technically more difficult. Obtaining the best possible results requires specialized techniques and additional views. You must be candid about your implants when undergoing any diagnostic breast exam.

Breast Augmentation in La Jolla California

Breast Augmentation in La Jolla is also known as breast enlargement or breast enhancement in La Jolla. Breast augmentation in La Jolla is among the most popular procedures in our practice. The numbers of augmentation surgery done annually has increased steadily in the past few years. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, in 2003, more than 250,000 women had breast augmentation. Dr. Rechnic has been performing the surgery for over 20 years.

Breast augmentation and breast implants have been extensively studied and are regulated by the Food and Drug Administration. Silicone gel implants are still considered for “investigational” use for reconstruction, and other limited applications as of January 2005. We recommend that all patients read the FDA Breast Implant Consumer Handbook, available on line at: http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/breastimplants/indexbip.html

Dr. John Gross performs Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation (or augmentation mammaplasty) is a cosmetic procedure that uses implants to enlarge and shape the breasts. Some of the reasons women seek breast enlargement surgery are to change the size or shape of their breasts, to bring balance when a breast that is smaller than the other, and to correct a loss of volume or fullness after weight loss or pregnancy.

Some women benefit from having a mastopexy (breast lift) along with the augmentation when the breasts are sagging.

The Procedure
Breast augmentation surgery is performed on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia and usually takes less than 2 hours. The incisions are small and usually located underneath the breast just above the crease or around the lower edge of the areola to keep scars as inconspicuous as possible. After the incision has been made, the surgeon creates a pocket into which the implant is inserted; either directly behind the breast tissue or beneath the muscle.

About the Implants
Most women receive saline-filled implants which are filled with sterile saltwater. The implants may also be filled with silicone gel, although the use of these implants is limited to patients who fill certain requirements. Your surgeon can provide you with information on the latest implant research. Dr. Gross offers cohesive breast implants.

Recovery
Upon leaving the operating room you will be wearing a supportive, elastic bra. Initial discomfort will be controlled with oral medication. Within a day or two you should be up and around and can resume light activities. After several weeks most of the swelling will be gone, exercise can be resumed and you will start to see your final results.

Results
Most women who have breast enlargement surgery are very pleased with the results and find that their new figure is more proportioned and gives them a greater sense of self-confidence.

Risks
The risks associated with breast enlargement surgery are not great. However, it should be noted that a small percentage of women may experience capsular contracture (a hardening of the scar tissue that forms around the implant which may require a surgical revision.) It is also important to keep in mind that most implants have to be replaced at some point within a woman’s lifetime as they are not life-long devices.

Breast Lift in Scottsdale - Mesa Arizona

Procedure Description:
This procedure improves the shape of the breast and elevates and downsizes the nipple complex.

What To Expect:
Breast lifting can be done with or without changing the size of the breast. If more fullness is desired, Dr. Flint will recommend that an implant be added. If the breasts are very heavy and pendulous the breast may be downsized at surgery. It depends on your goals. Most importantly, the shape will be improved and the nipple complex will be downsized and moved up higher.

The scar pattern varies depending on how much lift is required and the pre-operative size of the breasts. Most patients find the improvement in shape well worth the trade off of having a scar. Scars generally fade nicely with time.

Preprocedure:
Dr. Flint will meet with you and discuss your goals regarding your breast surgery. She will examine you and discuss your options and make recommendations. all of your questions will be answered. You will be given information regarding the fees and an opportunity to select a date for your surgery if you so desire.

Postprocedure:
You will be able to go home about two hours after your surgery. Dr. Flint will see you in the office in one to two days and place you in a sports bra at that time. Three weeks later she will re-examine you and allow you to return to full activities. Most people take one to two weeks off of work. Discomfort is mild and should resolve within seven to ten days. Breast shape will be improved immediately but will continue to improve over the first three post-operative months.

For a breast lift in Scottsdale and in Mesa Arizona contact female board certified plastic surgeon Patti Flint, M.D.

Dr. Saul Berger performs Breast Augmentation in California

Dr. Saul Berger focuses on plastic surgery and cosmetic surgery procedures including breast augmentation and other plastic surgery procedures. Please contact us today to learn more about this procedure.

Patients seeking breast augmentation in California may do so for a variety of reasons. A woman may desire larger breasts to enhance her body contour or if she feels her current breast size is too small. Breast augmentation may also be performed in order to make corrections after pregnancy or to balance the size of the breasts. Correcting these can also help to strengthen self-confidence, leading patients to seek their own breast augmentation in California.

Breast Augmentation uses breast implants which are either filled with a saline solution or silicone gel. Saline implants are most commonly used as the use of silicone implants has been restricted. This is because the rupture of a silicone implant may release the silicone material into the body’s tissues which is a significant health concern. If saline implants rupture, the saline solution is harmlessly reabsorbed into the body and the implant can be replaced. Please contact Dr. Berger to learn more about getting breast augmentation in California.

Breast augmentation is a very individualized procedure in which your goals should be realistically determined and discussed with your surgeon in California. Together you will determine what specific procedures will be performed. Once your goals have been determined you will set a date for this procedure in California and will be given instructions about how to prepare.

When the date for your breast augmentation has arrived, your surgeon may select from a variety of methods for inserting the implants. Implants can be inserted through several locations including the line where the breast and body meet, the areola (dark area surrounding the nipple), the armpit, and even the naval. The patient should discuss with the physician and determine which location is best to minimize the visibility of any scarring that may occur.

After the procedure, patients often experience soreness for a few days but are back into their normal lives within a day or two. Pain following the surgery can be minimized by medications prescribed by your doctor. All procedures are performed with anesthesia to minimize any discomfort or pain. Please visit our home page to learn more about Breast Augmentation in California.

It is important to follow any instructions your physician may have following your breast augmentation in California. Patients should be aware that soreness will be present after the operation and that physical activity following the operation should be avoided for a period of time. Scarring from the operation does occur but will fade away gradually, although scars may never disappear completely.

Dr. Saul Berger can help you to achieve your goals. This doctor specializes in procedures relating to breast augmentation including procedures such as face lifts, nose jobs, blepharoplasty, liposuction, and tummy tucks. To schedule an appointment or to learn more about a breast augmentation, please contact us today.
