Breast Augmentation: Helping Women Stay Sexy and Confident

What do Kate Upton and Brooklyn Decker have in common? If you answered that they are both Sports Illustrated cover girls, then you’re correct! But the stunning swimsuit models share another remarkable trait, namely having beautiful, full, firm, youthful breasts. While they might have come into the world with their outstanding assets, many women can achieve the same beautiful look with breast augmentation.

Having a beautiful figure isn’t just about being sexy. It’s about looking and feeling your best at any age. More than ever before, women of all ages want a balanced, attractive shape. In addition to maintaining a healthy weight through diet and regular exercise, having firm, perky breasts can help them achieve the goal of looking more beautiful and feeling self-confident.

Breast Augmentation Helps Turn Back the Hands of Time

With the effects of gravity as you age, if you have gained and lost weight, or if you’ve been pregnant and breastfed, your breasts have probably lost the volume that makes them appear youthful. In addition, the skin on your breasts has likely slackened and sagged. You might have even been left with unattractive stretch marks. Unfortunately, changes such as these are permanent and irreversible without corrective surgery.

Many women suggest their smaller, saggy breasts make them feel older, less attractive, and less confident about their appearance. The good news is that breast augmentation can restore your breasts to a more youthful size and shape, boost your self-esteem, and help give you a more youthful look and outlook!

If you are one of millions of women who would like to enhance the size, contour, and feel of your breasts for a more youthful physique overall, then breast augmentation might be right for you!

In the hands of a skilled plastic and cosmetic surgeon, breast augmentation can give you fuller, perkier, rounder, firmer, beautiful, natural-looking breasts!

Depending on your surgeon’s recommendations, saline or silicone implants can be used to:

• Enlarge your breast size
• Balance your breast size with your overall shape
• Tighten your skin and help firm your breasts
• Correct uneven, deformed, and disfigured breasts
• Lift sagging breasts
• Add breast volume
• Reconstruct breasts after mastectomy, lumpectomy, and biopsy
• Revise previously unsatisfactory breast augmentation and/or breast lift

When necessary, your plastic and cosmetic surgeon can combine breast augmentation with breast lift to better position your breasts on the chest.

Both saline and silicone implants are proven safe and can enhance the look and feel of your breasts.

Before Breast Augmentation

A first step toward getting beautiful breasts through augmentation surgery is having a discussion with a board-certified plastic and cosmetic surgeon. He or she will ask about your expectations and desires, address your concerns, tell you about limits and risks, and explain what you can expect. In many cases, your surgeon can show you digital imaging of your body before and after breast augmentation.

After examining you, the surgeon will tell you about different types and shapes of breast implants and recommend the breast implant that will give you the very best possible results.

Breast Augmentation Procedure and Recovery

During your breast augmentation surgery, your doctor will create a space under the breast in which to place the implant. Depending on whether you choose saline or silicone implants, the space is made above or under the chest muscle.

Incisions are place depending on your anatomy, goals, and implant type. But they are commonly placed under the arms or in the natural crease of the breast where they can be concealed. Your surgeon will make the incisions as small as possible. In time, scars from the incisions will fade considerably.

Most women who have breast augmentation return home within a few hours after their surgery. Your doctor will help you manage any soreness or discomfort with prescription and over-the-counter medications. Some bruising and swelling is natural after breast augmentation surgery, but it will eventually resolve. Although you will see immediate results from breast augmentation, you will see the final, fantastic results of your breast augmentation surgery within weeks.

After your surgery to augment your breasts, it’s best to take some time off to rest and heal. You shouldn’t lift anything heavy or exercise for 4 to 6 weeks. But once you have healed completely, you can resume all your normal activities, including vigorous exercise.

After breast augmentation, most women are thrilled with their new breasts as well as how they help balance their overall shape!
