Breast Augmentation- The Most Common Procedure!

In 2009, according to the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons, breast augmentation became the single most common cosmetic surgical procedure that we perform in the United States.  This is still true as of 2012.  What is amazing is that it surpassed liposuction.  As a patient, there are a number of things that I think you can glean from this information.

First, it is very common!  Many millions of women get this procedure everyday in this country.  In my practice, this is the most common surgery that I perform.

Second, it is safe.  If this was not safe, we would not be doing as many.  This is true from the standpoint of implant safety concerns (gummy bear implants), anesthesia related problems (virtually none), and post operative pain management concerns.  Patients will tell me that they feels comfortable enough after surgery that they often will go out to dinner with their loved ones the same night of the surgery!

Third, patients love this procedure.  In so many instances, I have seen this procedure positively change a woman's whole personality.  My patients will tell me that it makes them feel confident socially and professionally, and even at home!  This is truly the most amazing and gratifying aspect of this procedure for me as a surgeon.

  1. Could someone please help me, I don't know what to pack.
    On Monday I'm having a reduction on my right breast ( if i am better, currently sick)
    In November 2012 I had an augmentation in my left breast.
    I was born with uneven breast
    my Left was about an A, but is now a D
    my Right is a DD maybe an E.
    There is still a slight difference in them, just needing it a bit smaller, firmer and perkier :)
    But i don't know what to pack, I might be there for 3-4days and i know i'm going to be in a lot of pain. I don't want to pack a lot but i do want to be comfortable and entertained.

  3. The breast reconstruction and for the augmentation and enhancement of the breast augmentation size shape and texture of a women breast and mostly there are three types saline implants, silicone implants, alternative composition implants the saline breast implant means it filled with saline solution when we compared to the results achieved with silicone gel breast implant the saline implant can yield good to excellent results of increased breast size smoother hemisphere contour and realistic texture yet it is like to cause cosmetic problems.
