What Is Breast Augmentation?

Breast augmentation is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to enhance the size, shape, and overall appearance of a woman's breasts. This procedure involves using either implants or fat transfer to increase the volume of the breasts and improve their symmetry. Breast augmentation is typically chosen by women who feel self-conscious about the size or shape of their breasts or those who have lost breast volume due to pregnancy, weight loss, or aging.

Types of Breast Augmentation

The top breast augmentation in Austin comes with many options. Dr. Haydon’s goal to deliver the safest, most natural results can be performed through a fat transfer or silicone gel implants. While some plastic surgeons still use saline breast implants, Dr. Haydon recognizes the disadvantages of that style of implant – rippling, a less natural look and feel, deflation, higher contracture rates – and only offers options that are long-lasting and have a low revision rate.

Breast enhancement with silicone gel implants:

This is the most popular type of surgery performed. Dr. Haydon prefers to use this type of material for enhancements because the gel feels more like natural breast tissue and is a safer option for patients. In the unlikely event that the implant was to leak, the gel would stay within the implant shell and would not collapse. In addition, silicone breast implants have been approved by the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) for breast augmentation in women ages 22 and up.

Fat transfer breast augmentation:

Fat transfer breast augmentation is the practice of removing fatty tissue from one part of your body and injecting it into your breasts. Not only are you enhancing your breasts, but you’re also removing a small amount of fat from a problem area, improving your look even further. This type of procedure offers a natural enlargement of the breast and is typically best for those who seek a relatively small increase.

Breast Augmentation with Lift:

Breast augmentation with lift offers the advantages of both breast augmentation and lift procedures, resulting in breasts that are fuller, more youthful, and lifted. This popular choice helps women boost their self-confidence and attain their desired aesthetic objective.

Implants Used For Breast Augmentation

Two main types of implants are traditionally used in breast augmentation surgery: saline and silicone. Saline implants are filled with a sterile saltwater solution and are typically inserted into the breast tissue empty, then filled once they are in place.

Silicone implants, on the other hand, are pre-filled with a silicone gel that closely mimics the feel of natural breast tissue. Dr. Haydon uses silicone implants rather than saline implants to help achieve this natural look. He will help you select the right size, shape, and profile for your body type and desired outcome.

Breast Augmentation Benefits

The benefits of breast augmentation surgery include:

  • Increased breast size
  • Enhanced breast shape and symmetry
  • Improved body proportions
  • Boosted self-confidence and self-esteem
  • Improved body image
  • Improved clothing fit and options
  • Restored breast volume after pregnancy, weight loss, or aging
  • Corrected breast asymmetry
  • Improved sexual satisfaction
  • Corrected tubular breast deformity

Breast Augmentation Candidates

Generally, good candidates for breast augmentation are:

  • Women who are physically healthy and at least 18 years old
  • Women with fully developed but small breasts
  • Women with asymmetrical breasts
  • Women who have lost breast volume due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, or weight loss
  • Women who have realistic expectations about the procedure and its outcomes
  • Women who are not pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Women who do not have a history of breast cancer or other breast diseases

Breast Augmentation: What to Expect

Procedure

The procedure typically begins with administering anesthesia to ensure your comfort during the surgery. Dr. Haydon then makes an incision in one of three possible locations: under the breast, under the arm, or around the nipple. He then separates the breast tissue from the muscles and connective tissue of the chest before placing the breast implant under the breast or chest muscles. The procedure usually takes between one and two hours to complete.

Results

Over time, swelling and bruising will subside, and you’ll begin to see the final results of breast augmentation. Expect a noticeable increase in breast size and improved shape after the procedure.

Breast augmentation results are usually long-lasting, although the implants may need to be replaced after 10 to 15 years. Overall, breast augmentation can boost self-confidence and improve the overall appearance of the breasts, leading to a more positive body image.

Breast implant shape and profile

One of the beginning steps in completing a breast augmentation is selecting a breast shape and profile. Round and teardrop-shaped implants are available, but nearly all implants performed by Dr. Haydon are round in shape.

Teardrop-shaped implants are designed for women who are starting with no breast volume, as is the case following a mastectomy. Round implants give a fuller, more youthful appearance. Breast implant profiles range from low to ultra-high.

Most procedures fall between moderate, moderate plus, or high. While there is little difference in each profile placement, the ultra-high placement may thin tissue over time.

Making the Right Choice with Dr. Haydon for Breast Augmentation

Dr. Haydon will analyze your chest wall and breast measurements to determine which profile is most fitting for a natural appearance. Dr. Haydon makes your procedure a priority and will thoroughly explain each step of the process based on your unique anatomical structure. You’ll explore the different types and profiles of silicone implants and discuss which is best for your desired results.

It’s natural to be concerned about scarring following any surgical procedure, but with Dr. Haydon’s extensive experience, your breast implant scars will be virtually undetectable. As one of Austin’s top breast augmentation surgeons, Dr. Haydon can perform a breast enlargement procedure through the most common incisions. During your initial consultation, Dr. Haydon will explain how an incision in the inframammary fold is created and how you can expect the incision to heal.

I can not explain how happy I am with the results of my breast augmentation. I went in expecting them to look good but had no idea the amount of confidence it would give me! Dr. Haydon is very knowledgeable about breast augmentation and was honest about what he felt was best to compliment my body. His team was extremely helpful during the process and very well coordinated. Literally, they’re perfect! If I could give him 10 stars I would.

Breast Augmentation Recovery

Breast augmentation recovery can take several weeks, and you should follow Dr. Haydon’s post-operative instructions carefully to ensure a smooth recovery. Keep the following in mind:

  • Immediately after surgery, you will experience some discomfort, swelling, and bruising, which can be managed with pain medication and rest
  • Avoid strenuous activity and heavy lifting for at least four to six weeks after surgery to allow the body to heal properly
  • Wear a supportive bra for several weeks to help with the healing process
  • You can usually return to work within a week or two but should avoid any activities that could strain the chest area

Are there risks or complications associated with breast augmentation?

Like any surgery, breast augmentation carries risks such as infection, bleeding, changes in nipple or breast sensation, implant rupture, and capsular contracture (hardening of scar tissue around the implant). Your surgeon will discuss these risks during your consultation.

How long do breast implants last?

Breast implants are not considered lifetime devices and may need to be replaced or removed due to complications or changes in preference over time. However, many implants can last 10 years or more before replacement may be recommended.

Breast augmentation generally does not affect breastfeeding, though it can depend on the type of incision and placement of implants. Mammograms can still be performed with implants, but additional views or techniques may be needed to ensure full breast tissue examination.

Will breast implants affect sensation in my breasts?

While changes in sensation can occur temporarily after surgery, most women regain normal or near-normal sensation over time. However, some permanent changes in sensation, particularly around the nipples, may occur.

Can I combine breast augmentation with other procedures?

Yes, breast augmentation can be combined with other procedures like breast lift (mastopexy) or body contouring surgeries such as liposuction. Your surgeon can discuss the feasibility and benefits of combining procedures during your consultation.
