    Breast Augmentation is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in the world, providing fullness and volume to breasts. There are many reasons women seek Breast Augmentation surgery, but whatever the reason for breast augmentation each patient deserves the best possible results from their plastic surgeon. In the few cases where patients wish to change their implant size, are not pleased with their results, or do not get the results they expected, Breast Augmentation Revision surgery may be able to correct the issues the patient has.

    This patient previously received a Breast Augmentation , but her results as well as the process of aging had left her with breasts that appeared ptotic (sagging) and uneven in size. She visited Dr McCluskey with hopes of restoring the symmetry and fullness to her breasts, and as you can see below he was able to achieve the look that she desired through a Breast Augmentation Revision surgery!

    The Mommy Makeover is a popular procedure that helps women return to their ‘pre-baby body’ by combing procedures that address each individuals concerns. Even with a healthy lifestyle including balanced diet and exercise there are some changes that childbearing causes that cannot be reversed without surgery. Pregnancy creates abdominal wall separation, sagging skin and stretch marks that can be reduced with a Tummy Tuck. Fat deposits and problem areas can be remedied using liposuction. Breastfeeding also causes reduced breast volume and sagging that can be addressed using either Breast Augmentation or a Breast Lift.

    This patient received a beautiful transformation by combining a Tummy Tuck, Breast Augmentation and Liposuction with Dr McCluskey. As you can see below there is greater waist definition, fuller breast volume and a flat stomach that would have been impossible through diet and exercise alone.

    Breast Augmentation Plastic Surgery

    breast augBreast augmentation or simply known as breast implants are used to increase the breast size in order to achieve post mastectomy reconstruction in case of breast cancer treatments or purely for cosmetic appeal. Breast implants are classified according to the type of implant, the treatment procedure or even the resulting complications.

    Types of breast implants

    There are two major types of breast implants, they are saline and silicone implants. The former is made of silicone shells filled with sterile salt water (saline) and the latter is made of silicone shells filled with silicone (plastic gel). Both saline and silicone implants are available in different profiles to suit the projection goals of each patient. Silicone implants are available in the traditional round implant shape aswell as the shaped ‘gummy bear’ implants that more closely mimic the natural shape of a breast.

    Most patients have accepted that silicone based implants feel more natural. Care must be taken to ensure that they are prevented from leaking as it can pose some serious risks. Silicone implants were banned in the year 1992 due to safety concerns but were re-introduced in 2006 after favorable scientific research. A rupture in a silicone implant doesn’t lead to deflation as the gel will remain trapped inside the capsule tissues. There, silicone rupture is also referred to as silent rupture.

    Ruptured silicone implants are bound to cause deflation which results in irregular shapes and contours of the breast. The solution leakage will be absorbed naturally into the body but doesn’t lead to any health complications. The empty shell must be removed or replaced by a surgery.

    There common risks posed by both type of implants such as breast pain, occasional uneasiness, rupture and capsular contracture.

    Implant safety

    Both saline and silicone implants have been tested and certified to be safe, but they may not last long. Ruptures in saline implants can be spotted easily when changes in the breast shape are recurring. Whereas, in silicone implants ruptures are hard to spot due to the cohesive gel not separating. Even though they do not deflate as saline implants, it is suggested to surgically remove or replace ruptured silicone implant.

    Silicone implants come pre-filled to a standard size before they are inserted. Saline implants are filled after they are inserted through a smaller incision. That also allows the saline implants to be slightly adjusted even after the surgery. In order to ensure maximum safety regarding the use of implants certain eligibilities have been imposed. In case of reconstruction, either type of implants is permissible for patients of any age. In augmentation, saline implants are permissible for those above 18 and silicone implants for those above 22.

    Cost

    The cost of breast implant can vary according to the type of implant, the hospital or the doctor’s reputation. Typical range of breast augmentation cost at the Plastic Surgery Institute of Atlanta is $3000 to $6,000. As in case of any cosmetic surgery, breast augmentation isn’t covered by insurance.

    Breast augmentation is a great way for patients to enhance the female figure and in many cases improve self esteem. This young transgender patient had undergone silicone injections into her breast tissue in the past. Following consultation with Dr McCluskey, the patient chose to undergo a breast augmentation with 550cc silicone breast implants while having Dr McCluskey simultaneously remove any of the old injected silicone and scar tissue. When silicone is injected it is extremely difficult to remove and only a limited amount can be removed with out causing safety risks for the patient. The patient selected a periareolar incision, meaning the incision line is around the nipple. Please watch and leave any comments or questions you may have!
