Breast Implant Considerations One Of the Most Popular, and Affordable, Cosmetic Procedures
Breast augmentation is one of the shortest procedures performed in plastic surgery requiring on average one hour. Anesthesia requirements are often a lighter version of general anesthesia that allows you to breathe on your own, wake up quickly and have less chance of nausea.
Recovery is also relatively short with a few days of rest and medication for discomfort. Most women return to work in 4-5 days.
Because incisions are also short, just a few centimeters, they can be easily concealed in the fold under the breast or in the pigmented area around the areola. Short incisions heal faster, scar less and are easier to conceal.
What is time consuming about this process is the preparation. We make sure you spend enough time deciding what is best for you and make every effort to ensure that your decisions are good ones.
Considerations
Implant Type Saline verses silicone
Implant Position Subpectoral (under muscle) or subglandular (above muscle)
Incision site Periareolar (around the nipple) or Inframammary Fold (under the breast)
Implant Size
Implant Profile
