Breast Augmentation in Lake Mary, FL | Lake Mary Plastic Surgery

Understanding Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation is a transformative cosmetic procedure designed to enhance breast size, shape, and overall body proportions. This surgical technique involves using implants to create fuller breasts, restore volume lost after pregnancy or weight changes, and improve body symmetry.

Procedure Overview

Also known as augmentation mammaplasty, this procedure involves carefully selected implants to achieve the patient's desired aesthetic goals. The surgery can help individuals who wish to:

• Enhance breast volume and projection
• Improve body proportions
• Restore breast shape after significant body changes

Consultation Process

During your consultation at Lake Mary Plastic Surgery, Dr. Shoukas will conduct a comprehensive evaluation to ensure the best possible outcome. The consultation includes discussing:

• Personal aesthetic goals
• Implant type selection (silicone vs. saline)
• Medical history and potential considerations
• Detailed breast measurements

Candidacy for Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation is ideal for individuals who are:

• Physically and mentally healthy
• Have fully developed breasts
• Possess realistic expectations
• Seeking to address breast volume or shape concerns

Procedure Considerations

Important aspects of breast augmentation include understanding that the procedure:

• Does not correct significant breast sagging
• May require additional procedures like a breast lift
• Involves general anesthesia
• Requires a recovery period of several weeks

Safety and Longevity

Scientific research indicates that breast implants are safe, with no proven links to systemic diseases. Most women can breastfeed after augmentation, and implants do not increase breast cancer risk.

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can expect initial discomfort and swelling, typically manageable with prescribed medications. Most individuals return to work within a week, with full physical activity resuming after six weeks.
