Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that is designed to enhance the shape and size of a woman’s breasts, typically through the placement of an implant behind each breast. 

This procedure is known clinically as augmentation mammoplasty and is undertaken for cosmetic reasons, such as adding volume to disproportionately small breasts, restoring balance to asymmetrical breasts, or simply creating a more sensuous body shape.

Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Matthias Solomon provides breast implant surgery to patients in Dallas, Frisco, Sherman, Texas, and surrounding communities. 

Individualized Options in Breast Augmentation

A key reason for the widespread popularity of breast augmentation is that the procedure can easily be personalized to the patient’s specific goals. Women seeking breast enhancement have various options to choose from, offering them great control over the results. These options include the following:

Type of Breast Implant

At present, women in the US can choose between saline, silicone, and form-stable, ultra-cohesive silicone gel (informally called “gummy bear”) implants. 

Placement of Breast Implant 

Breast implants can be inserted in pockets created either in front of the pectoral muscle, right behind the breast tissue (the submammary or subglandular placement technique), or underneath the pectoral muscle (the submuscular placement technique). 

Incision Locations

Breast implants may be placed through transaxillary incisions (in the armpit), inframammary incisions (just beneath the crease at the base of the breast), or periareolar incisions (along the border of the lower half of the areola). 

Breast implant shape, size, profile, and texture can also be customized. Every decision a woman makes about her breast augmentation cosmetic surgery will impact her overall result. 

Why Choose Breast Augmentation?

The most common reasons for seeking breast augmentation include the following:

• Creates a better proportion between the breasts and the rest of the body
• Enhances symmetry between differently shaped or sized breasts
• Appear more appealing and feminine
• Restore fullness to the breasts following pregnancy, nursing, or weight loss
• Addresses congenital deformities in one or both breasts
• Enhances confidence and self-image
• Adds fullness to breasts that did not develop sufficiently after puberty, a condition known as micromastia

Benefits of Silicone Implants

A key benefit of silicone implants is that they appear and feel very similar to natural breasts, much more so compared to saline implants. Therefore, they are a popular choice for slimmer women or those who seek reconstructive breast surgery. 

Benefits of Saline Breast Implants

A significant benefit of saline implants is their safety. Saline is a sterile solution of water and salt. In the event of any leakage, the body can absorb the solution without any damaging effects. 

Cosmetic Improvements with Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation using breast implants enhances the body shape of a woman by reshaping the bust line, increasing breast size, offering a more sensuous figure. Some women may feel that their bust line is disproportionate due to small breasts, creating an overall body shape that lacks balance. 

Breast enhancement can add curves and definition to the body shape for an appearance that is more conventionally appealing. Breast implants are available in various sizes and shapes, enabling cosmetic surgeons to choose the right implants to allow the patient to accomplish their desired breast size.

Plastic surgery not only offers patients a renewed physical appearance, but it also raises their self-confidence and changes their outlook on life for the better. For this reason, it is understandable that new patients are usually eager to start their cosmetic surgery journey as soon as possible.

However, before scheduling their procedure, it is crucial for them to assess their options thoroughly. Plastic surgery is a complex procedure, which should only be undertaken by a skilled and experienced surgeon for beautiful results.

Important Considerations

Patients should ideally create a list of any questions that they may have prior to setting up an appointment with a surgeon for their procedure. 

A comprehensive understanding of the areas to be evaluated can help them choose the right cosmetic surgeon for their unique needs. Patients should determine a plastic surgeon with the appropriate background and experience, likely an ABPS board certified plastic surgeon.

Correlating with this, the patient should consider a plastic surgeon whose fees are affordable to them. It is important for the patient to feel comfortable with the personality and bedside manner of the surgeon. Does the patient want to work with a friendly surgeon who makes them feel comfortable? Or one who possesses a more business-like approach to the surgical process?

Is the patient seeking a surgeon who will guide them on the most suitable techniques for them or one who follows a “cookie-cutter” approach? It’s vital for the patient to find answers to such questions before a consultation with a surgeon to ensure that they arrive at the right decision. 

Experience

It’s essential for the patient to choose a surgeon with specialized training. But it is equally vital to understand whether the surgeon has the requisite practice experience in cosmetic surgery procedures. 

In case the patient seeks a particular type of surgical technique or a combination of procedures, they should work with a cosmetic surgeon with experience in these specific procedures. 

Checklist for Choosing the Right Surgeon

 

• Can you discuss your credentials, experience, and qualifications?

• How many years of experience do you have in undertaking plastic surgeries?

• How many cosmetic surgery procedures have you undertaken to date?

• Can I see some before and after photos of your previous work?

• Am I a good candidate for cosmetic surgery? If not, what options do you recommend for me?

• If I am unhappy with the outcomes, what are your practice policies on revision surgeries?

• What are the estimated costs of cosmetic surgery at your practice?

• How long will the recovery stage be following the surgery?

• What does the healing period involve?

• What is the longevity of the procedure outcomes?

 

Selecting a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Patients must consider whether the surgeon is American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) board-certified. The ABPS certifies plastic surgeons based on strict criteria, such as a specific number of years of training in the area of plastic surgery.

With the help of plastic surgery, patients can attain more than just a new and improved physical appearance. These procedures can boost their confidence and enhance their perspective on life. 

For this reason, many patients are excited to initiate their cosmetic surgery journey as soon as possible. 

But prior to scheduling their procedure, it is vital for patients to ensure that they have chosen an appropriate surgeon for their needs. Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Matthias Solomon provides safe and proven procedures for the breast, body, and face to patients in Dallas, Frisco, Sherman, Texas, and surrounding communities. 

Factors to Consider

Before finalizing their choice of a surgeon, the patient should create a list of questions that will help them determine which plastic surgeon they feel the most comfortable with. Patients should choose a highly skilled and dedicated surgeon for their procedure, most likely an ABPS board-certified surgeon.

However, the patient will also want to work with a surgeon whose fees are within their budget. On top of this, they will want to understand a little more about the surgeon’s personality so they feel comfortable with this person before they actually begin the surgery. 

Does the patient seek a compassionate surgeon who will offer them support through every phase of the surgical process or someone with a more clinical approach to the surgical process?

Would the patient feel more comfortable with a plastic surgeon who will recommend the most appropriate procedure for them or one who takes their lead (obeys the patient) and does precisely as they ask them? Assessing these factors during the consultation is vital prior to scheduling a cosmetic surgery because the patient is supposed the one wanting the surgery and not signing up for surgery just because a plastic surgeon recommends it.

Do Your Own Research

The patient should make sure that, in addition to spending time on the surgery, they should also devote sufficient time to evaluating the surgeon’s background and the procedure in advance.

Undergoing plastic surgery is a life-changing decision. Therefore, the patient should try to achieve the most from their consultation with the plastic surgeon to make sure that their decision is the right one.
