Breast Augmentation Draper, UT | NuVista Plastic Surgery

Understanding Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation is a transformative surgical procedure designed to enhance breast size, shape, and overall contour. NuVista Plastic Surgery offers comprehensive breast enlargement solutions for women seeking to address volume loss, asymmetry, or aesthetic refinement.

Procedure Overview

Performed as an outpatient procedure at NuVista's accredited Draper office, breast augmentation involves precise implant placement under muscle and breast tissue. Surgeons utilize three primary incision techniques:

• Inframammary (under the breast)
• Periareolar (around the nipple)
• Transaxillary (under the arm)

Implant Selection and Customization

NuVista Plastic Surgery understands that breast augmentation is a highly personalized procedure. Implants are carefully selected based on individual anatomy, consisting of silicone or saline shells in various sizes and projections.

The Secret Scar Approach

Dr. Petersen specializes in the innovative transaxillary "secret scar" technique, minimizing visible scarring while ensuring optimal implant placement. This advanced approach reduces recovery time and provides natural-looking results.

Recovery and Post-Surgical Care

Recovery typically spans three to four days, with most patients resuming normal activities within a week. Patients receive comprehensive post-operative instructions to ensure smooth healing and optimal outcomes.

Potential Considerations

• Temporary breast swelling and adjustment period
• Gradual implant settling
• Potential risks including capsular contracture

Ideal Candidates

Breast augmentation candidates are individuals seeking aesthetic enhancement with realistic expectations. Factors such as overall health, body proportions, and personal goals are carefully evaluated during comprehensive consultations.
