Patients seeking breast augmentation in California may do so for a variety of reasons. A woman may desire larger breasts to enhance her body contour or if she feels her current breast size is too small. Breast augmentation may also be performed in order to make corrections after pregnancy or to balance the size of the breasts. Correcting these can also help to strengthen self-confidence, leading patients to seek their own breast augmentation in California.

Breast Augmentation uses breast implants which are either filled with a saline solution or silicone gel. Saline implants are most commonly used as the use of silicone implants has been restricted. This is because the rupture of a silicone implant may release the silicone material into the body's tissues which is a significant health concern. If saline implants rupture, the saline solution is harmlessly reabsorbed into the body and the implant can be replaced.

Breast augmentation is a very individualized procedure in which your goals should be realistically determined and discussed with your surgeon in California. Together you will determine what specific procedures will be performed. Once your goals have been determined you will set a date for this procedure in California and will be given instructions about how to prepare.

When the date for your breast augmentation has arrived, your surgeon may select from a variety of methods for inserting the implants. Implants can be inserted through several locations including the line where the breast and body meet, the areola (dark area surrounding the nipple), the armpit, and even the naval. The patient should discuss with the physician and determine which location is best to minimize the visibility of any scarring that may occur.

After the procedure, patients often experience soreness for a few days but are back into their normal lives within a day or two. Pain following the surgery can be minimized by medications prescribed by your doctor. All procedures are performed with anesthesia to minimize any discomfort or pain.

It is important to follow any instructions your physician may have following your breast augmentation in California. Patients should be aware that soreness will be present after the operation and that physical activity following the operation should be avoided for a period of time. Scarring from the operation does occur but will fade away gradually, although scars may never disappear completely.
