Breast augmentation is one of many breast procedures available at the practice of Dr. Ellen Mahony. Breast augmentation improves the shape and size of the breasts, using implants to add volume and cup size. This procedure differs from a breast lift or a breast reduction and instead focuses on adding one or two cup sizes to a woman’s chest.
What type of implants are available?
When it comes to the type of implant used during a patient’s breast augmentation procedure, patients must learn about their options. Her practice offers the IDEAL Implant, which provides a natural-looking appearance, as well as both silicone and saline options. In the past, some doctors utilized textured gel implants, which have been discovered to be associated with a large-cell lymphoma condition and are no longer used following their recall.
In addition to the type of implant used, patients should also understand that the surgical technique used during breast augmentation can alter the natural appearance of the final results. Dr. Ellen Mahony is a board-certified plastic surgeon who takes great pride in paying attention to the fine details or cosmetic surgery. She will use a technique best suited for a patient to achieve a beautiful and natural result.
Can other procedures be completed at the same time?
Absolutely! Some patients prefer to combine procedures to save on recovery time and the costs of separate surgeries. Some women choose to pair breast augmentation with a tummy tuck, liposuction, or other procedures of the body and face.
