What is Breast Augmentation?

Breast augmentation, also known as mammoplasty, is a highly customizable surgical procedure tailored to enhance the size, shape, and overall appearance of the breasts according to each individual’s unique preferences and goals.

Breast Augmentation Options

There are various breast implant options for enhancing breast volume. Dr. Nazarian offers personalized guidance in selecting the most appropriate choice for your desired results.

Showcasing The Three Popular Breast Implant Types: Saline, Silicone, And Gummy Bear

Types of Implants

  • Silicone Implants: filled with cohesive silicone gel, providing a realistic appearance and feel.
  • Saline Implants:  filled with saline solution, offering adjustable volume and a more cost-effective option.
  • Gummy Bear Implants: highly cohesive gel implants that maintain their shape and are less prone to rippling or folding.
  • *Fat Transfer: an alternative option that provides a subtle enhancement and utilizes the patient’s own tissue for augmentation.

 

Shell Material Filler Material Characteristics
Saline Silicone Sterile saline solution Adjustable size, firmer feel, harmless leakage if ruptured
Silicone Gel Silicone Cohesive silicone gel More natural feel, possible “silent rupture”
Gummy Bear (Form-Stable) Cohesive Silicone Cohesive silicone gel Maintains shape, less rippling or folding

Implant Shape Options 

Teardrop Vs Round Shape Implant Options For Breast Augmentation By Dr. Sheila Nazarian In Beverly Hills
  • Round Implants: provide fullness and symmetry, suitable for those desiring enhanced cleavage and a balanced appearance.
  • Teardrop Implants: mimic the natural slope of the breast, offering a subtle, tapered look for a more anatomical shape.

Implant Texture Options

  • Smooth: sleek implant surface that can move naturally within the breast pocket, offering a softer feel.
  • Textured: slightly rough surface designed to reduce the risk of implant rotation and enhance tissue adherence for more stable positioning.

Implant Placement Options

Beverly Hills Breast Implant Placement Comparison: Natural Chest Wall, Beneath Muscle (Submuscular), And Above Muscle (Subglandular) By Dr. Sheila Nazarian.
  • Submuscular Placement: implants placed beneath the chest muscles, resulting in a more natural appearance and decreased risk of rippling.
  • Subglandular Placement: implants placed above the chest muscles, providing a slightly more projected look and a shorter recovery period.
Submuscular Placement Subglandular Placement
Procedure Implants placed under chest muscles Implants placed above chest muscles
Appearance Provides a natural appearance May have a slightly more projected look
Rippling Reduced risk of rippling Slightly higher risk of rippling
Recovery Time Longer recovery due to muscle involvement Shorter recovery time
Pain Levels May experience more discomfort initially Typically less discomfort initially
Implant Movement Minimal implant movement Potential for more noticeable implant movement
Exercise Impact May impact certain upper body exercises Minimal impact on upper body exercises
Mammograms Implants may obstruct mammogram views Easier mammogram interpretation
Implant Feel May feel more natural due to muscle coverage May feel slightly less natural
Suitability Preferred for individuals with thin breast tissue Suitable for individuals with adequate breast tissue
Implant Sizing Can affect sizing choice due to muscle coverage May have more options for sizing

Incision Options

The success of breast augmentation procedures is significantly influenced by the type of incision used. Dr. Nazarian utilizes discrete incisions strategically positioned either beneath the breast within the natural skin fold or discreetly along the areolar border. This approach aims to minimize visible scarring and attain outcomes that exude a natural appearance.

  • Inframammary Incision: crease of the breast fold
  • Periareolar Incision: around the lower half of the areola
  • Transaxillary Incision: armit area

Breast Augmentation Reviews

“Dr. Nazarian and her team are incredible! I had breast augmentation one week ago, and I couldn’t be happier with not only the results but the recovery process. Dr. Nazarian has perfected the process from start to finish, to set you up for a quick and painless recovery. She and her team are friendly and accommodating, the surgery center was not intimidating at all, and I felt well taken care of the entire time. Afterward, I had no pain or bruising in my breasts whatsoever, but I also iced religiously, took my pain meds, and took 5 full days to relax and heal. My body was a little sore and I was very tired for a week, but that’s to be expected with surgery and anesthesia. Follow instructions from Dr. Nazarian, show yourself love and patience, and know that you are in great hands if you choose Dr. Nazarian for any service or procedure! I absolutely recommend her and her team.”

“Dr Nazarian is hands down the most thoughtful, knowledgeable, and attentive surgeon. I personally did extensive research and was very critical on finding the right plastic surgeon. I was looking for a plastic surgeon who listened and understood that I wanted a more natural breast augmentation that fit my body frame, wouldn’t push me to go too large. She just gets it and guided me to the perfect size and I could not be happier. I have been a nurse for over 15 years and her medical care is top of the line. I had hardly any discomfort post surgery. Her staff is vigilant and caring. Again, can’t say enough on my satisfaction and happiness with Dr Nazarian! She is well worth it and I am so happy I made the choice to have a breast augmentation done with her. You will have no regrets!!”

Breast Augmentation FAQs

What is breast augmentation?

Breast augmentation, also known as mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure that aims to enlarge the size, shape, or fullness of the breasts using implants or fat transfer.

What is the difference between breast augmentation and implants?

Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that enhances the size and shape of the breasts. Implants are the synthetic devices used to achieve this enhancement. In other words, breast augmentation is the procedure, and implants are the tools used in the procedure.

How long does it take to recover from breast augmentation surgery?

Most patients can return to non-strenuous activities within a week after surgery. However, full recovery, including resuming intense workouts and heavy lifting, typically takes 4-6 weeks.

What age is best for breast augmentation?

The FDA recommends saline implants for women 18 and older and silicone implants for women 22 and older. However, the best age is a personal decision and should be discussed with a healthcare provider.

How painful is breast augmentation?

Patients may experience discomfort and pain immediately after the procedure. However, this can be managed with prescribed pain medications. The intensity of pain decreases as the body heals.

What type of breast augmentation is best?

The best type depends on individual goals, body type, and anatomy. Options include saline, silicone, or fat transfer. A consultation with a plastic surgeon can help determine the best choice.

What are the two types of breast augmentation?

The primary types are augmentation using implants (saline or silicone) and augmentation using fat transfer. The saline type includes involves inserting sterile saline-filled implants while the silicone one involves silicone gel-filled implants.

Do you need to wear a bra with breast augmentation?

Immediately after surgery, patients are typically advised to wear a surgical bra or compression garment to support healing. After recovery, wearing a bra is a personal choice.

Can you feel your breasts with implants?

Yes, but the sensation might be different, especially initially. Over time, as the body adjusts, the feeling becomes more natural. Different factors like breast tissue and nerves can have an impact on the sensitivity of the breasts.

Do you sleep in a bra after breast augmentation?

It’s often recommended to sleep in a supportive bra for several weeks post-surgery. The purpose is to aid in healing and maintain the position of the implants.

Do breast implants hurt when touched?

Initially, there may be sensitivity or discomfort, but this subsides as healing progresses. If pain persists, it’s essential to consult the surgeon. Some people can experience various degrees of sensation in the breast region, which can be impacted by implant type, size, and location.

What is the least risky breast augmentation?

Both implant and fat transfer methods have their risks. The best approach is to choose a board-certified healthcare practitioner who will carefully assess your goals and discuss potential risks and benefits.

What size implants are best?

The best size is subjective and depends on the individual’s body frame, desired outcome, and other factors. A surgeon can provide guidance on choosing the right size between 125cc and 180cc.

How much difference in cup size for breast augmentation?

The difference in cup sizes is usually from 50cc to 100cc. Typically, every 150-200cc of implant volume can increase breast size by approximately one cup. However, results vary based on individual anatomy.

Do I have to wear a bra 24/7 after breast augmentation?

For the initial weeks post-surgery, it’s usually recommended to wear a supportive bra around the clock to aid in healing. To promote proper healing and provide added support, healthcare practitioners recommend wearing it.

What do breast implants look like as they age?

Because of the additional fat stored in the breasts, breast implants might cause a minor increase in breast sagging as you age. Over time, implants can be affected by factors like gravity, weight fluctuations, and aging, leading to changes in appearance. Regular check-ups can help monitor the condition of the implants.

What is better: round or teardrop implants?

Both shapes have their advantages. Round implants provide more fullness, while teardrop (anatomical) implants offer a more natural slope. The choice depends on the desired look and consultation with a healthcare provider.

If my breasts sag, do I need a breast augmentation or a breast lift?

It’s really going to depend on how much your breasts sag. If you can place a pen underneath your breast and it doesn’t drop to the ground, you probably need a breast lift. Another indicator is the nipple position. If your nipples sit below the crease of your breasts, you will probably need a lift.

I am worried about scars on my breast. are they bad?

Scars are the single biggest deterrent for patients when it comes to any kind of surgical procedure. Luckily, they heal really well. Experienced practitioners, take the necessary time to make sure that any scars are as inconspicuous as possible. Even though they always look pink at first, you need to be patient and see the improvement with time.

I keep reading about breast implant illness. is this a real thing and should i be worried?

Breast implant illness describes a variety of autoimmune symptoms associated with breast implants, such as brain fog, exhaustion, and joint discomfort, though the cause is unknown. Despite significant studies, breast implants may cause unpleasant reactions in certain people. While some plastic surgeons downplay the problem, others, such as myself, take patients’ concerns seriously, giving removal choices after all medicinal options have been tried.

What about alcl? can my implants give me cancer?

ALCL is an exceedingly rare but serious problem, and it has only been linked to textured implants, according to the FDA and Canada Health. While there is no need to panic if you have textured implants, it is critical to remain cautious. If you develop a fever, seek medical assistance because it is curable if detected early. Finally, annual check-ups with your healthcare provider are essential to ensure the health of your breast implants.

What size implant will give me a d cup?

If you want to transition from a Cup size B to a D cup, implants ranging from 350cc to 400cc may assist you in reaching your target cup size. Implants in the 300 to 350 cc range may be helpful if you want to transition from a Cup size C to a D cup.
