Frequently Asked Questions About Breast Augmentation in women with a wide gap between the breasts.
Below are some frequently asked questions about breast augmentation in women with a wide gap between the breast. These are designed only to provide you with general information regarding this procedure. We will provide you with extensive information during your complimentary consultation in our Baltimore office. Any further questions or concerns may also be addressed at that time.
Where do you put the breast implants?
Implants can be placed either in front of or behind the chest muscle. Breast implants placed under the muscle require a slightly longer recovery time.
What are the risks with breast augmentation?
As with any surgical procedure, there are risks involved with breast augmentation, such as infection or bleeding. Scar tissue may develop around your implant, which may harden and need to be revised. The nipples may become more sensitive or numb. Infection or implant leakage may occur. A small percentage of patients are unable to breast-feed following surgery. However, complications are rare.
Will there be scarring?
Your implants can be inserted from under the breast fold, through the areola, or high up in the underarm area, so the small incisions can be placed strategically for minimal visibility.
How do I know if breast augmentation is right for me?
The best candidates for breast augmentation are women who are looking to enhance their figures. If you are physically and emotionally healthy, and realistic in your expectations, this procedure may be right for you. Find out more by scheduling your complimentary consultation now.
What kind of breast implants are available?
The choice of breast implant filler, implant size, shape and other features will be determined based on your breast anatomy, body type and your desired increase in size. Your lifestyle, goals and personal preferences, as well as your plastic surgeon's recommendation, are also determining factors.
You will have the choice of using saline or silicone implants. Both saline and silicone gel breast implants are approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
