Breast Augmentation
A woman’s choice for breast augmentation is a very personal one and involves several important decisions. Breast augmentation may be performed for a variety of reasons:
- To enhance the body contour of a woman who wishes to augment her small breast size
- To correct a reduction in breast volume after pregnancy
- To balance a difference in breast size
- As a reconstructive procedure following breast surgery
Breast augmentation is a very safe and rewarding procedure. We at Reviance believe that breast augmentation can improve a woman’s appearance and self-confidence in a natural way.
As with any medical decision, it is important to understand the process of breast augmentation. Each personal, private, and individualized consultation will help you determine whether breast augmentation is right for you and will include a discussion of each of the following important topics:
- Desired Breast Size
- Desired Type of Breast Implant: Silicone versus Saline
- Placement of Incision Site (Nipple, Armpit, Under the Breast)
- Placement of the Implant Above or Below the Chest Muscle
- Potential Risks and Benefits
