Procedure Overview
Breast augmentation increases breast size and improves shape using silicone or saline implants, or in some cases the patient's own fat. Implant size, profile and placement are chosen to suit the individual's frame and goals. The result is planned around long-term proportion and comfort, not a fixed idea of an 'ideal' size.
IDEAL FOR
Patients seeking increased breast volume or improved shape and proportion.
