You are a good candidate for cosmetic Breast Augmentation if you are otherwise healthy and have at least one the following conditions or characteristics:
- You have always considered your breasts to be too small or under-developed (mammary hypoplasia)
- You feel that your figure is out of proportion because your small breasts make your hips appear wider
- You feel that your small breasts limit your choices of flattering clothing or swim wear
- Your breasts have lost volume, especially upper breast fullness, after pregnancy, weight loss, or with age
- The upper part of the breast appears “empty”
- Your breasts have a different size or shape from one another (asymmetrical mammary hypoplasia)
- You have previously had breast implants and are experiencing problems with them (revision breast augmentation)
- One or both breasts failed to develop normally, or have an unnatural, elongated shape
Only you can decide if Breast Augmentation is a good option for you, and each patient has her own preferences regarding what is “normal” and “beautiful” for her breasts. I will discuss your individual goals regarding the change you seek in the shape and size of your breasts, together we will define a realistic treatment plan, and I will individualize my surgical approach to incorporate your desires with my surgical expertise. I will assess the quality and quantity of your existing breast tissue in order to determine the proper choice of breast implant and technique.
