Breast Augmentation
Breast Size Enhancement
This procedure involves the placement of artificial breast implants to give the breasts volume. Breast augmentation increases the size and shape of a woman’s breasts and/or corrects dissimilarity in breast size. Many women who are unsatisfied with the size of their breasts, as well as women with depleted breast volume following pregnancy or weight loss, elect to undergo breast augmentation. Women experiencing sagging of their breasts may be better served through breast lift (mastopexy) or a combination of breast lift and breast augmentation (augmentation mastopexy) to both elevate the bust line and enhance breast size.
The Breast Augmentation
Procedure
Dr. Sessa can make the small initial incisions for breast augmentation either along the fold under the breast, around the edge of the nipple or within the underarm, according to the technique he and the patient have decided upon before surgery. He then creates a pocket that will accommodate the breast implant behind or on top of the pectoral muscle, depending on a combination of the patient’s level of skin elasticity and the desired results of breast augmentation. Once the implant is placed in its proper position, the incisions are carefully sutured, leaving minimal if any post-operative scarring.
