BREAST AUGMENATATION

Breast Augmentation Procedure
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that enhances the size and shape of the breasts. We offer both silicone and saline implants to give clients the option that best suits their goals. The procedure is typically performed under general or I.V. sedation anesthesia and takes about one hour to complete. Our surgeons make a small incision in the breast crease, around the areola, or in the armpit and insert the implant either beneath the breast tissue or under the chest muscle.
Benefits of Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation can offer numerous benefits, including improved self-esteem and confidence, a more proportional figure, and enhanced body contours. Our clients often feel more comfortable in their fitted clothing and enjoy a greater sense of femininity after their procedure.

Teardrop Shaped Breast Implants
Teardrop shaped breast implants, also known as anatomical or contoured implants, are designed to mimic the natural shape of a breast, with a gently sloping curve and more fullness at the bottom. These implants can provide a more natural-looking result for some patients, particularly those with minimal breast tissue or those seeking a subtle enhancement.
Advantages of teardrop shaped breast implants include:
- More natural-looking shape and contour
- Suitable for patients with minimal breast tissue or those who want a subtle enhancement
- Less upper pole fullness, which can appear more proportionate for some patients.
During your consultation, your surgeon will discuss the various types of implants available, including teardrop shaped breast implants, and help you determine which option best suits your goals and needs.

Crisalix VR – Plastic Surgery Simulator
We offer Crisalix VR, a unique 3-D imaging system that allows you to see how you would look after the procedure, from multiple angles, with different breast implant sizes, shapes, and types. This technology will enable you to “try on” your new breasts before you decide.
Crisalix VR, More Than a Plastic Surgery Simulator
If you have been considering cosmetic surgery, but have uncertainty whether or not you’ll like the results, there is a remarkable 3-D imaging system called ‘Crisalix’ that we are using in our office. Crisalix VR offers more comprehensive 3-dimensional views and angles, giving you more confidence when choosing an option that’s right for you.
WHAT ARE THEY AND HOW DO THEY WORK?
The Crisalix VR (Virtual Reality) Goggles are more than just a plastic surgery simulator. Developed by a Swiss-based tech company, Crisalix, they allow you to see how you would look after the procedure, from multiple angles, with different breast implant sizes, shapes and types. This technology allows you to “try on” your new breasts before you decide.
The web-based system uses 2-D photographs of you that are taken during your consultation to create a 3-D simulation. Your photos are uploaded to the Crisalix program and we put the sizes you want to look at in the program. The simulations are rendered while you are still in the office and you will see a 3-D simulation of what you will look like after surgery.
A feature of the software is that you can see several sizes side by side for comparison and see the images with different blouses or bathing suit tops. If you have a size difference between your breasts, the program can measure the difference in volume and help to confirm that using two different size implants will give you the look you want.
“Patients love it! Deciding what style and size of implant best achieves the patient’s personal desires is difficult. Being able to visualize the anticipated result from surgery is extremely helpful, assuring, and comforting. Being able to “see” the new look is fun and exciting!” – Broadway Plastic Surgery

After your consultation, you will have the opportunity to view the images at home which gives you the chance to look again and ensure you are making the decision that is right for you and the surgery will provide you with the look you desire.
How much does breast augmentation cost?
Saline vs. Silicone
Saline and silicone breast implants both offer unique benefits. Deciding which one is best for you depends on your desired outcome.
Saline implants are filled with sterile salt water from an I.V. bag after insertion. Should the implant break, a saline implant will quickly deflate. Silicone implants, however, will maintain their shape (not collapse) following a tear in the shell. Some individuals also prefer silicone implants because the gel will feel more like a natural breast.
Saline Implant Benefits:
- Less expensive
- The implants are filled with saline after insertion, so the incisions are smaller
- The surgeon may have more control over breast volume asymmetries
Silicone (Gel) Implant Benefits:
- Look and feel more natural because they are formed from a highly cohesive gel designed to hold their form
- Less likely to ripple
- Often a better choice for women with small natural breasts
What is the recovery time for breast augmentation?
Recovery typically takes one to two weeks, during which clients may experience mild discomfort, swelling, or bruising. Following your surgeon’s post-operative instructions is essential to ensure a smooth recovery. Most patients can return to work within one week but should avoid strenuous activities for four to six weeks. Learn more about the breast augmentation recovery process here.
What are the risks of breast augmentation?
Can I combine breast augmentation with other procedures?
To achieve a more comprehensive transformation, breast augmentation can be combined with other procedures, such as a breast lift, tummy tuck, or liposuction. Your surgeon can help you determine which combination of surgical procedures suits your goals and expectations.
What is the difference between a breast augmentation and a breast lift?
Breast augmentation focuses on increasing the size and fullness of the breasts using implants. In contrast, a breast lift addresses sagging or drooping breasts by removing excess skin and tightening the breast tissue. Some patients may benefit from a combination of breast augmentation and lift to achieve the desired breast size, shape, and position.
How do I choose the right size and type of implant for me?
During your consultation, your surgeon will discuss your goals and expectations and help you choose the best size and type of implant based on your body type, skin elasticity, and desired outcome. We also offer the Crisalix VR imaging system to help you visualize your potential results with different implant sizes, shapes, and types.
