Factors to Consider When Getting a Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation, also known as an augmentation mammaplasty, is a procedure designed to increase the size and volume of a woman’s breasts using breast implants. The procedure may be right for you if you are physically healthy and are bothered by the feeling that your breasts are mismatched, too small, or have lost volume due to pregnancy, aging, or weight reduction. However, there are certain factors you’ll want to take into consideration before undergoing a breast augmentation.

Variety of Implant
Two types of breast implants, saline and silicone, are approved by the FDA. Saline implants consist of a silicone outer-shell filled with a sterile salt water solution, whereas silicone implants are filled with a cohesive silicone gel. Saline implants are generally approved for women ages 18 and above, while silicone implants are used for women over age 22. Consider feeling each type of implant during your initial consultation with your plastic surgeon to determine which consistency is better suited to your needs. You will also need to choose the size of the implants. A good way to do this is to determine your current body proportions to ensure that the implants will complement your figure and provide the desired projection.

Incision Location
After choosing the type and size of implant you will need to consider the different incision methods. The four incision techniques utilized during breast augmentation include:

• Inframammary: made along the natural crease of each breast.
• Transaxillary: made inside the armpit.
• Periareolar: made around the nipple.
• Transumbilical: made within the belly button.

Advancements in the field of medicine have inspired more and more individuals to undergo plastic surgery procedures. In fact, studies show that a growing number of women are choosing to undergo mommy makeover procedures to help boost their confidence and restore their pre-baby bodies. Read on for more information on the benefits of undergoing a mommy makeover with a qualified Scottsdale plastic surgeon.

Mommy makeovers are customizable, meaning they are tailored to meet the needs and desired results of each patient. Patients may choose to undergo one procedure or a number of procedures performed in conjunction with one another—including procedures such as liposuction, tummy tucks, breast augmentation, and breast lifts. Women who are suffering from stubborn fat deposits along their hips, thighs, buttocks, or abdomen may choose to undergo liposuction—while women with excessive skin and fat along their midsection may benefit from a tummy tuck in conjunction with liposuction. Similarly, women who suffer from sagging, drooping, or disproportional breasts following pregnancy or breastfeeding may choose to undergo a breast lift in addition to a breast augmentation.

Mommy makeover procedures also help to boost your self-confidence and overall self-esteem by helping you regain your youthful body contours. Feel comfortable in your skin, wear the clothes you once loved, or get a whole new wardrobe to compliment your new figure following a mommy makeover.

The best way to determine which procedure or procedures are right for you is to contact your plastic surgeon.
