Fuller Bust

There are various implant sizes and projections to help you achieve the full look you desire. Increasing your bustline can provide you with the feminine curves that you may feel you are lacking.
Natural Appearance

Dr. Hiatt knows that the main goal for most breast augmentation surgeries is to have beautiful and natural-looking breasts. All breast augmentation surgeries are tailored to the needs of the patients, ensuring a balanced and proportionate appearance. Dr. Hiatt helps you choose the best implants for you depending on your body’s frame.
Symmetrical Breasts

A significant number of women considering breast augmentation surgery have asymmetrical breasts. This can be expressed as one breast being smaller than the other or one being positioned lower than the other. Dr. Hiatt can adjust your breast augmentation plan to correct natural asymmetry, restoring a more symmetrical breast appearance.

Your Breast Augmentation

Implant Options

If you are interested in the most natural breast augmentation results, silicone implants may be right for you. Silicone better simulates the natural look and feel of breast tissue and usually doesn’t develop surface irregularities like saline implants are prone to. However, for cost or specific aesthetic reasons, saline implants may best suit your breast augmentation needs.
Incision Options

Dr. Hiatt believes that the inframammary incision is best for delivering an optimal result while minimizing complications. The incision is located along the natural crease below the breast. It achieves better implant symmetry and improves the breast contour. This incision site is hidden, which results in limited visible scarring.
Combining Procedures

Women who are considering breast augmentation surgery following weight loss, pregnancy, or aging may want to consider combining a breast lift with their augmentation if they have breast sagging. Minor sagging can be exacerbated by the weight of the implants, especially if they are on top of the muscle. Pronounced sagging can affect the quality of your results. Excess skin that causes sagging may lead to complications such as double bubble deformity or implants that have bottomed out. A breast lift combined with breast augmentation surgery can achieve shapely, youthful breasts and treat these unwanted results.

Concerns

Recovery

You will experience swelling following your surgery and may have some bruising; major swelling subsides about two to four weeks post-surgery. Most patients return to work in one to two weeks but refrain from heavy lifting for six weeks. Most women can resume their regular exercise routines after six weeks.
Scars

Scarring varies depending on your incision location. Dr. Hiatt’s preferred inframammary technique discreetly places all incisions in the breast crease, which hides the appearance of scars. If you do develop visible scarring, it is likely to fade over time.
Cost

The cost of your breast augmentation surgery will vary depending on implant choice, surgical fees, location, and anesthesia fees. While cost does play a role in your breast augmentation choices, it shouldn’t be the biggest factor. You should never forgo an experienced plastic surgeon who is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery in the name of saving money.
Pain

There is some discomfort associated with the first few days of recovery. The added weight of the implants and the stretching skin can cause a tightened, uncomfortable sensation. Oral pain medication is used to alleviate this pain, which usually subsides within a few days.
