Breast enlargement is accomplished by inserting a breast implant either behind the breast tissue, or partially or completely under the chest muscles. Incisions are made to keep

scars as inconspicuous as possible, usually under the breast, around a portion of areola, or in the armpit. Breast implants may be manufactured in a variety of shapes, sizes, and with either smooth or textured surfaces. The method of implant selection and size, along with surgical approach for inserting and positioning breast implants will depend on your preferences, your anatomy and your surgeon’s recommendation. The shape and size of the breasts prior to surgery will influence both the recommended treatment and the final results. If the breasts are not the same size or shape before surgery, it is unlikely that they will be completely symmetrical afterward.
 

If you breasts sag or droop and you wish to improve this, the addition of implants alone will not fully correct the issue; Dr. Espinosa will recommend you combine your augmentation with a breast lift, also known as a mastopexy. The combination of the augmentation and the lift is called an augmentation mastopexy, and they can be performed in the same surgery. .
