Breast Augmentation

Published by DR. Bradley Ashpole

Breast Augmentation is a popular cosmetic surgery procedure that is performed to enhance the fullness of the breasts. The breast augmentation is one of the most commonly performed procedures for women all over the world. Breast augmentation is achieved through the use of either saline or silicone filled implants of various sizes, shapes, and textures. The breast implant is placed either under or above the pectoral muscle through an incision that may be made using a few different techniques depending on the size and type of implant and if any other procedures are being performed at the same time.

Some women may opt to combine the breast augmentation with a breast lift to both enhance breast size and lift the breasts to a more youthful positioning. If you are interested in learning more about the breast augmentation procedure and recovery process, and to find out if it may be right for you, contact our office to schedule your consultation with Dr. Ashpole today.
