There’s no need to be ashamed or embarrassed of wearing a bikini at the beach or that tiny strapless dress. Women who desire to change the appearance of their breasts can get the results they want with cosmetic surgery breast implants or breast lifts.

For small breasts, FDA-approved silicone or saline breast implants enhance size and volume. Incisions can be placed either around the nipple areola area or underneath where the breast meets the chest. Saline implants are generally placed underneath the muscle while silicone implants can be placed above or below the muscle. It is important to determine whether a breast lift is necessary based on how much breast droop is present.

If the breasts are drooping, additional breast lift procedure can be done. Breast lift is also a good solution for women who are satisfied with the size of their breasts but wish to raise and firm them. Loss of skin elasticity, gravity, weight loss, pregnancy and breast-feeding are some factors that affect the shape and firmness of breasts. Women can get a more youthful breast contour with a breast lift. The procedure is done by incisions following the breast’s natural contour. Excess skin is removed, and the nipple and areola are moved to a higher location. The result is firmer, youthful looking breasts.
