With so many plastic surgeons doing cosmetic surgery as well as breast augmentation surgery, you would think it would be a straight forward procedure. This misconception couldn’t be further from the truth.
For such a common procedure, there are several myths about breast augmentation that you really need to understand before you can make an informed choice. Through my experience as a plastic surgeon speaking to patients over the years, these are some of the key things people wonder about.
A breast lift and a tummy tuck are surgical procedures that go well together: one surgery day; one recovery; less costs; and an amazing body transformation. I perform breast and tummy surgeries together on a regular basis. It is referred to as the Mommy Makeover and is one of the most satisfying procedures for my patients and me. I see patients regularly who are interested in returning their bodies back to its pre-pregnancy stage.
What one person considers a natural looking breast augmentation, may not be same for the next. I personally believe that the most beautiful breast augmentation is one that looks so good, people wonder if you had surgery, but so natural looking that they are left guessing. Once it is easy to recognize an implant, some of the wonder and beauty is lost.
How would you like to bring back your pre-pregnancy body? A mommy makeover is typically requested by women post-pregnancy who would like to return their bodies back to their pre-pregnancy appearance. It can often involve a tummy tuck and breast surgery, which can include breast augmentation with implants, a breast reduction, a breast lift, body contouring to reshape the silhouette, and/or liposuction.
