Breast augmentation is performed by placing an implant device behind the breast. Breast implant surgery is done to achieve a larger breast size, a better breast shape, or to correct asymmetry of the breast. The size of the breast implants is determined by the patient’s desired size, the measurements of the breast the elasticity of the skin and the general body shape. Breast augmentation can be performed in conjunction with a breast lift. Learn about our otherplastic surgery procedures and skin care options.
