Breast Augmentation

It’s normal to have a few things you might want to change about your appearance, including your breasts. We gain or lose weight, go through pregnancy, or simply get older. It is completely natural for our breasts to change shape. If you are exploring ways to improve your breasts, then Breast Augmentation might be right for you. Breast Augmentation surgery is a safe procedure that uses placement of silicone or saline breast implants to enhance the breasts.

How is Breast Augmentation performed?

Breast Augmentation involves the placement of breast implants. These implants go under the breast tissue and sometimes under the muscle. While enhancing your breast size, breast implants can also give you a natural look and feel. Typically the scars from surgery are fine lines located at the lower, outer part of your breasts, covered by a bra.

Is Breast Augmentation right for me?

During your visit, we will help you try out different breast implant sizes. This process allows you to visualize and feel the difference a breast implant would make on you. Only you can make that decision, but Dr. Tannan’s experience as a board-certified plastic surgeon will serve as a guide. We work with you to find the right sized breast implants that will give you the most natural look and feel.

Sometimes, your breast tissue has stretched so significantly from changes with weight, pregnancy or other life events. In this case, Dr. Tannan may also recommend a Breast Lift at the time of your breast surgery to restore the youthful shape of your breast while maintaining a natural look. We discuss options for a Mommy Makeover during the consultation as well.
