    Breast Augmentation with Lift in Atlanta

    A

    What is Breast Augmentation Surgery?

    Atlanta Plastic Surgery

    Breast augmentation is the most desired plastic surgery procedure performed annually in the United States. At Astra Plastic Surgery in Atlanta breast augmentation is a popular choice because it can improve breast shape and size to give a patient a more proportional figure, along with the attractive curves she has always desired. Although approximately 80% of women who request enlargements do so for cosmetic reasons, the remaining 20% account for medical reasons, such as the need for a reconstructed breast after suffering from breast cancer.

    What is a Breast Lift?

    A breast lift can be combined with a breast reduction or breast augmentation for optimal results. Many of our patients choose a breast lift procedure to address the changes that occur to their bodies. Often women’s bodies are affected by age, after pregnancy and breastfeeding, or after significant weight loss.

    What are the Benefits of Breast Augmentation with Lift?

    Types of Breast Implants

    At Astra Plastic Surgery, It starts with trust

    Breast augmentation can improve breast size and add natural-looking volume using breast implants. Having breasts that are too small for your frame or otherwise out of proportion with the rest of your body may make you feel less attractive and self-conscious.

    Dr. Christopher Killingsworth and his plastic surgery team offer breast augmentation with lift for Atlanta patients who want larger, fuller-looking breasts. Most women have an idea of what they want their new breasts to look like, and in order to achieve that look, the proper size and shape of the breast implant must be selected. Today’s breast implants are made from either saline or silicone. Both implant types are approved as safe to use by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and each breast implant option offers its own advantages.

    Saline-filled implants

    are made of a silicone outer shell, and they are filled with a saltwater solution that is easily absorbed by the body in case of an implant rupture. Saline breast implants are filled after undergoing implant placement, so they require a smaller incision. Saline-filled implants are slightly firmer, so they do have a greater chance of rippling.

    Silicone breast implants

    are composed of a silicone outer shell filled with a thick silicone gel. This type of implant is known for its natural appearance and feel, and there is less chance of visible rippling, although they require a larger incision. During your consultation, Dr. Killingsworth, Dr. Farber, and their plastic surgery team can help you decide which type of breast implant is right for you.

    Breast Augmentation Procedure

    Astra Plastic Surgery Procedures in Atlanta, GA

    Breast augmentation is typically performed using general anesthesia (although, in some cases, other options are available). Breast augmentation surgery typically lasts one to two hours, depending on the extent of the surgery. One of the most critical operative breast augmentation decisions is forming implant pockets where your plastic surgeon will create space for your breast implants to be inserted.

    These pockets are the foundation for your new breasts, and achieving proper structure requires a small release of the chest muscle (pectoralis major), which creates a more beautiful breast shape. Your plastic surgeon will make the incisions for your breast augmentation in inconspicuous places to minimize scar visibility. The different types of breast implant incisions include:

    Additional Reading

    • Transaxillary Incision: Located in the armpit
    • Inframammary Incision: Located in the crease on the underside of the breast
    • Periareolar Incision: Located around the areola (the dark skin around the nipple)

    After the incision is made, your breast implants will be inserted, and this placement will determine how the breasts will project themselves after your breast augmentation surgery. Placing the breast implant above the muscle (sub-glandular) can produce a more rounded, fuller look that many women choose, even though it may not look as natural. Placing the implant underneath the chest wall muscle (sub-muscular) is more common and can achieve a natural, shaped look. After the implants have been inserted and positioned, the incisions will be stitched closed, taped, and bandaged.
