Breast Augmentation in New York by Jeffrey Lisiecki, MD
Achieve a Curvaceous Silhouette with Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation offers women the opportunity to attain a more voluptuous figure with fuller and more voluminous breasts. Many choose to undergo breast augmentation to restore breast fullness after childbirth, balance body proportions, or simply to achieve larger breasts. Dr. Jeffrey Lisiecki specializes in personalized breast augmentation surgeries, utilizing both saline and silicone implants to deliver natural-looking results that align with each patient's anatomy.
Understanding Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure designed to increase breast volume and enhance their outward projection. This is typically achieved through the precise insertion of saline or silicone implants beneath the breast tissues or muscles, resulting in a fuller and rounder appearance. Dr. Lisiecki selects the optimal material, size, and shape of implants based on the patient's specific goals and anatomical considerations. It's important to note that while breast augmentation adds volume, it does not address sagging breast tissues.

Dr. Lisiecki’s Personalized Approach
Dr. Lisiecki conducts breast augmentation surgeries at his advanced surgical center, using general anesthesia. He employs strategic incisions under the breasts, in the armpit, or around the areola. The implants are then carefully placed either above or below the chest muscle, depending on the patient's unique goals and condition. The incisions are closed with dissolvable sutures, and the entire procedure typically lasts one to two hours.
Choosing the Right Breast Implants
Breast augmentation can be performed with either silicone or saline implants. Each type offers unique benefits and considerations, which Dr. Lisiecki will discuss in detail to help patients make an informed decision.
Silicone Implants Silicone implants are filled with silicone gel and have a natural feel similar to breast tissue, making them a popular choice. Regular ultrasounds or MRIs are recommended to check for leaks or ruptures.
Saline Implants Saline implants consist of a silicone shell filled with sterile saline water. They can closely mimic the feel of natural breast tissue and are known for their safety. Any rupture in saline implants is immediately noticeable, and the saline solution is harmlessly absorbed by the body.
Recovery Process
Post-surgery, patients are required to wear a sports bra for up to four weeks to ensure proper healing. Swelling and bruising around the breasts are common but can be managed with pain medication. Most patients can resume daily activities within a week, though strenuous exercises should be avoided for about four weeks.
