Is Breast Augmentation Right for Me?
Deciding whether breast implants are appropriate for you requires careful consideration and conversation with an aesthetic specialist. Breast augmentation surgery is generally recommended for patients who want to achieve improved breast volume and shape – whether they’ve always wanted larger breasts or have experienced body changes due to aging and pregnancy have created deflated-looking tissue.
If you are considering breast augmentation surgery, note what determines a suitable candidate:
- Realistic in expectations and goals
- In good physical health
- Want to increase the volume and enhance the fullness of their breasts
- Want to correct congenital deformities, trauma, or mastectomy results
If you’re experiencing loose skin in addition to a loss of breast volume, Dr. Livingston will be able to utilize breast lift surgery (“mastopexy”) with breast implants to provide a rejuvenated appearance – a higher position on the chest wall and improved volume.
