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 surgery performed?
We place breast implants under the breast tissue and sometimes under the muscle. These implants enhance your breast size while also giving you a natural look and feel. Typically the scars are fine lines located at the lower, outer part of your breasts, covered by a bra.
