Breast augmentation may be sought to rectify genetically asymmetrical or small breasts, or to restore breast size and/or firmness that may have been lost due to childbearing, age or weight-loss.

Implants may be made of a variety of materials and can come in a number of shapes and sizes.Your surgeon will help you choose the best incision type and implant location based on factors such as your body type, your present breast tissue volume, your implant choice, and your preferences regarding scarring.
Candidates for breast enlargement should be women who are healthy, and generally over 18 years of age. Those considering the surgery should understand that permanent scarring can occur, and that the effects of augmention surgery are not permanent, as some sagging due to gravity and age will eventually occur, and implant exchange surgery is often needed years after breast augmentation.

The best results and safest outcomes are typically at the hands of a board certified cosmetic surgeon. A “board certified” doctor has in most cases passed both advanced level oral and written exams in addition to his or her medical specialty training.
