Breast Augmentation Provo by Dr. Elise Mecham

Breast Enhancement Surgery Provo, UT | Dr. Elise Mecham

Understanding Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation, commonly referred to as a "breast aug" or "boob job", is a cosmetic procedure designed to increase or restore breast volume. The surgical technique helps patients achieve a more rounded breast shape and improve natural breast size asymmetry.

This transformative procedure can enhance breast fullness, improve body contour balance, and significantly boost personal self-confidence. It's important to note that breast augmentation cannot correct severely drooping breasts, which may require a simultaneous breast lift procedure.

Ideal Candidates for Breast Enhancement

Breast augmentation is a deeply personal decision that requires careful consideration. Ideal candidates typically demonstrate the following characteristics:

  • Physically healthy individuals
  • Not currently pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Breasts that are fully developed
  • Realistic expectations about surgical outcomes
  • Desire to address breast asymmetry or volume concerns
  • Feeling dissatisfied with current breast shape

Implant Options in Provo

Dr. Mecham offers multiple implant types to meet individual patient needs:

  • Saline breast implants: FDA-approved for women 18 and older
  • Structured saline implants with inner structure for natural feel
  • Silicone gel implants: FDA-approved for women 22 and older
  • Specialized options like gummy bear, round, smooth, and textured implants

Surgical Procedure Overview

The breast augmentation procedure involves several critical steps:

  • Anesthesia administration for patient comfort
  • Strategic incisions to minimize visible scarring
  • Precise implant placement under or over pectoral muscle
  • Careful incision closure with layered sutures

Recovery and Results

Following the procedure, Dr. Mecham applies compression garments to control swelling and support new body contours. Patients can expect gradual improvement in body shape as initial swelling subsides. Detailed post-operative care instructions will be provided to ensure optimal healing.

Important Considerations

Breast implants are not lifetime devices and may require future replacement. Regular medical examinations are recommended to evaluate implant condition and overall breast health.
