Breast Augmentation – Look Natural and Proportional
San Diego Breast Augmentation
Silicone implants came back on the market about 3 years ago for use in breast augmentation, and since then, the procedure is more popular than ever. Silicone implants feel and look more natural than saline implants, and extensive international research has demonstrated their safety.
Even with the difficult economic times, breast augmentation in San Diego and nationally becomes more popular every year. Women want to enhance their appearance, and with more flexible financing opportunities, the procedure is available to almost everyone. More and more of my patients want a natural look rather than the “boob job” look. Choosing the right size is a joint effort between you and me. I have my patients look at pictures of other patients and photos from magazines so that we agree on the size and proportion that you want. I use those pictures in the operating room to help select the proper implant to get the result you want.
Many patients wonder how I can tell what the breasts look like if they are laying flat on the operating table. In fact, we sit you up while you’re asleep, with your shoulders, chest, and tummy exposed, so that we can see exactly how the breasts look on your body, and then compare them to the photos.
The incisions I use are either around the lower part of the areola or under the breast. I always place the implants under the muscle which gives a more natural appearance. The surgery takes about an hour and everyone goes home afterward. Most of my patients go back to work in one week and resume exercise in 3 to 4 weeks.
