Before Your Breast Augmentation

There’s a lot to consider when planning your breast . For many, the first decision to be made is the material used. Synthetic implants or a fat transfer can be performed to enhance the breasts, and Dr. Frati performs both. Silicone gel implants are the most frequently used, and popular with our patients because of how the silicone mimics the feel and appearance of natural breast tissue. We use , which are approved for women 22 and over. Mentor is considered the best of the best when it comes to gel implants, and they come in both round and anatomically-shaped options, and in a variety of sizes and projections. That means that women can choose the exact specifications that best suit their anatomy and aesthetic goals. Mentor implants leave patients feeling safe and highly satisfied, and Mentor’s lifetime product replacement policy gives our patients additional peace-of-mind. 

Breast augmentation through fat transfer, on the other hand, is a great option for women who seek a natural alternative to implants and want to avoid future surgery for implant revision. A patient’s own fat can be taken from areas with excess or unwanted fat, such as the thighs, abdomen, or buttocks. It is then processed and injected into the breast. Women have the advantage of contouring these areas while also enhancing their breast size and shape. To determine if this procedure is right for you, we recommend a one-on-one consultation with Dr. Frati to discuss your desires and concerns. In this consultation, we can also discuss medical history, lifestyle, and overall, if you are a good for breast augmentation.

Procedure

The changes you’d like to make to your breasts will determine many of the details of your breast augmentation. Where the implant is placed, and the locations of the incisions used to place it often depend on the size of the implant being used, and the amount of breast tissue you currently have. It will also influence the duration of your recovery.

Dr. Frati inserts implants using a short-scar surgical technique for safe implant placement with minimal to no scarring, for beautiful results and a shorter recovery time. Dr. Frati will make one of three incisions, depending on what’s best for your unique case. These incisions include:

Fat is removed from areas of the body with substantial natural fat deposits, such as the buttocks, abdomen, or thighs. This fat is then purified to filter out the healthy fat cells, which will then be injected into the breasts over the course of multiple sessions. The procedure may take more than one session to avoid complications from too much fat in one session to the breast.

Recovery

Whether you have opted for breast through implant surgery or through fat grafting, you will likely experience swelling and soreness for a few weeks after your chosen procedure, with the potential for bruising as well. Scars will fade over time. We may also prescribe pain medication. To speed recovery, you’ll need to wear compression garments, and as you continue to heal, we recommend wearing a sports bra for added support to your breasts. You’ll be able to return to bras once your incisions are fully healed, and your implants have settled into place, usually about 6 weeks later. Each procedure aids in quick recovery as most of our are able to return to work after one week.
