Breast augmentation continues to be one of the most sought-after cosmetic procedures, offering individuals the chance to enhance their body contours and boost self-confidence. At The Pennsylvania Centre for Plastic Surgery, located in Philadelphia and Plymouth Meeting, Dr. Scott Brenman provides expert breast augmentation services tailored to each patient’s unique needs and goals.
Understanding Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure designed to increase the size, shape, or fullness of the breasts. This is achieved using implants or fat transfer techniques, depending on the patient’s preference and anatomy.
Types of Implants
Dr. Brenman offers two main types of implants:
- Silicone Implants: Filled with a silicone gel, these implants mimic the natural feel of breast tissue.
- Saline Implants: Filled with a sterile saline solution, they provide adjustable sizing options and are inserted empty, reducing incision size.
Each option comes with its own benefits, and Dr. Brenman helps patients choose based on their body type and aesthetic goals.
The Consultation Process
A consultation with Dr. Brenman is the first step. This includes:
- Discussing Goals: Understanding what you hope to achieve with the surgery.
- Physical Assessment: Evaluating your body type to recommend the most suitable implant type, size, and placement.
- Education: Providing information about the procedure, recovery, and potential risks.
The Procedure
Breast augmentation typically takes one to two hours and is performed under general anesthesia. Incisions are strategically placed to minimize visible scarring, commonly under the breast fold, around the areola, or in the armpit.
Recovery Timeline
Most patients return to work within a week and resume full physical activities within six weeks. Swelling and tenderness are normal during the initial healing period, but these subside over time, revealing the final results.
