About Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation, known also as breast enlargement or augmentation mammaplasty, is a procedure that uses breast implants to enhance the size and shape of a woman's breasts. It is the most popular plastic surgery procedure performed, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS).

Women who receive breast augmentation tend to be very happy with the results. According to a recent survey conducted by the ASPS, about 99% of women receiving breast surgeries like breast augmentation said they would have the procedure again.

Breast Augmentation Options

There are many factors to take into consideration while contemplating breast augmentation. During your consultation with Dr. Widenhouse, the two of you will discuss what is involved with this type of procedure, and together, you will make decisions regarding:

• Selecting a silicone or saline implant
• Selecting the size of your breast implant

After a thorough examination and review of your medical history, Dr. Widenhouse will be able to determine what surgical procedure and implant is best for you.
