Breast Augmentation in Dallas, Frisco, Plano TX
About
Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation aims to surgically increase breast size using implants. Although fat can be used, it has some limitations and implants are the predominant method for achieving optimal breast enlargement. Augmentation can be done to enlarge small breasts, fill in breast volume lost after pregnancy and childbirth, or correct existing asymmetry. If you are interested in receiving a breast augmentation, call Solomon Plastic Surgery in Frisco, TX to set up a private consultation with board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Matthias Solomon.
Breast augmentation is performed under general anesthesia in an accredited surgical facility and typically takes about two hours. It can be done using various approaches which includes placing the incision in the fold under the breast, the armpit, the margin of the areola, or the belly button. Using one of these incision approaches, Dr. Solomon will make a pocket (space) to place the implant. The creation of an ideal pocket will aid in optimal augmentation results. For this reason, the incision is usually placed in the fold under the breast so the pocket can be made more accurately.
Other Considerations
Although breast augmentation can provide a small amount of lift, most women with saggy breasts may need a lift in addition to implants. Sometimes, larger implants can be placed to produce a greater lift in order to avoid a mastopexy (breast lift), but this strategy is a short-term approach that may lead to long-term issues.
Although current implants are very durable, rupture can occur at any time (especially with age) and will require a surgical change of implants. Long-term complications are often unrelated to the surgeon or the initial implant surgery. These include capsular contracture, implant rupture, changes in breast tissue secondary to the weight of the implants, and natural aging of the breast over the implant. These changes require surgical intervention that is not typically covered by insurance. Patients who are considering breast augmentation surgery should have realistic expectations and should consider these financial implications.
Every woman is built differently and some have breasts that are placed wider apart. Although modern techniques can create the appearance of the breasts being closer with a natural result, anatomical constraints may not allow the creation of an ideal cleavage in such persons. There is no standardization of breast cup sizes — different bra companies vary in their cup sizes. Although it is possible to achieve the preferred cup size with the placement of a certain size implant in a given person, this is only an approximation.

AFTERGel implants feel more natural and are typically preferred by most women. In the past, older gels resembled thick oil and if the outer membrane holding the gel in place had a tear, the gel would leak into the breast pocket. However, medical studies have not found an increase in the incidence of an autoimmune disease even with leaked gel implants. Today, newer gel implants are more cohesive and even with a tear in the outer membrane, it is not supposed to leak or flow out. Gels also have less rippling and are more durable.
Saline implants feel less natural and can ripple more. However, advantages include the ability to place them through smaller incisions, the possibility of varying the filling volume during placement (adjustability), and a clear indication if an implant has ruptured. When ruptured, the saline is absorbed and the affected side is smaller. It is frequently perceived as the safer alternative. The FDA recommends an MRI screening every few years with gel, but not for saline implants.
