Enhance your breasts. Enhance your confidence.

At Muse Plastic Surgery, we recognize breast augmentation is a transformative experience beyond aesthetics. Our accomplished team, led by Dr. Wright A. Jones, is dedicated to helping you achieve your desired breast size and shape, enhancing your self-confidence, and providing expert care at every step.

What is breast augmentation?

Breast augmentation surgery is a widely popular procedure designed to enhance the size and shape of the breasts, allowing women to achieve their desired aesthetic goals. With advances in implant technology, breast augmentation has become highly customizable, allowing patients to tailor their results to their unique preferences. There are five main catagories that breast augmentation can address and those are:

Breast Implant Profile

The implant profile refers to how far the implant will project from the body. It's like choosing the level of prominence in your new silhouette. A higher implant profile will result in a more prominent silhouette, while a lower profile will offer a subtler enhancement.

Breast Implant Shape

Breast implants come in two primary shapes - teardrop (anatomical) and round (spherical). Teardrop implants mimic the natural contour of the breast, with more fullness at the bottom and a tapered top. Round implants offer a symmetrical, evenly rounded shape.

Breast Implant Size

Breast implant size is measured in cubic centimeters (cc's). Rather than traditional bra sizes, cc's are used to indicate the volume and size of the implant. You can choose from a range of approximately 120cc to 960cc, allowing for a personalized and natural look that suits your body.

Breast Implant Texture

Implants can be smooth or textured. Smooth implants provide a soft feel and natural movement. Textured implants are designed to adhere better to the surrounding tissue, reducing the risk of rotation, which can be particularly relevant for teardrop-shaped implants.

Breast Implant Type

There are two main types of breast implants - silicone and saline. Silicone implants come pre-filled with a silicone-based gel that closely simulates the feel and density of human breast tissue. Saline implants are inserted into the body while empty and are then filled with a sterile salt water solution, offering an alternative option for a natural look and feel. Your choice will depend on your personal preferences and the guidance we provide.

Breast augmentation, is it right for me?

Breast augmentation in Atlanta at Muse Plastic Surgery may be ideal for you if you're dissatisfied with your breast size, in good health, and a non-smoker. This procedure is suitable for women who are non-smokers in good health and looking to achieve more symmetrical and voluminous breasts, boosting their confidence in their appearance. If you're concerned about sagging breast tissue, a combination of breast augmentation with a breast lift may be considered to achieve larger and elevated breasts.

The benefits of breast augmentation

Breast augmentation offers numerous advantages, which include:

  • Enhanced breast size: Achieve your desired size and shape to improve your overall appearance.
  • Improved self-confidence: Feel more confident and satisfied with your body image.
  • Customization options: Tailor your breast augmentation with various implant choices, including profile, size, type, shape, and texture.

The breast augmentation procedure What to expect

Breast augmentation involves the insertion of breast implants to enhance breast size and shape. Silicone gel implants closely mimic natural breast tissue, offering a more authentic feel. The procedure is highly customizable, with various implant choices available to tailor your results to your preferences. The procedure is performed under anesthesia, ensuring you're comfortable throughout the surgery. We offer four surgical techniques for inserting your implants: the inframammary incision (placed along the lower crease where the breast meets the chest), the periareolar incision (around the edge of the areola), the transaxillary incision (in the underarm area), and the transumbilical incision (in the navel). The choice of technique will depend on your specific goals and implant type, all of which will be discussed during your consultation. Once the best incision placement is determined, the selected implants will be carefully placed above or beneath your chest muscles to achieve your desired size and shape. We will then close the incisions with sutures.

Breast augmentation recovery

Initially, you may experience chest tightness, swelling, and bruising. These side effects will gradually subside and can be managed with medication. During recovery, you should wear a compression garment for the first few weeks. This garment enhances comfort and reduces fluid buildup, decreasing swelling and bruising and allowing your full surgical results to become visible sooner. It would be best to avoid strenuous activities and exercise for several weeks, but you can slowly resume your daily routine as comfort allows. We recommend waiting six to eight weeks before incorporating strenuous exercise into your routine.

Cardio and other activities that jostle your chest can aggravate the healing process. Taking walks can benefit your recovery as the movement improves blood circulation, which can accelerate the healing process. Most patients return to their normal activities within a few weeks. Your initial results will be noticeable immediately and will continue to improve over the next few weeks as the swelling subsides. Breast implants provide long-lasting results, but factors like aging, weight fluctuations, and future pregnancies can influence the outcome. We recommend maintaining a healthy lifestyle to preserve your new contours.
