Will My Breasts Look Natural After Surgery?

    BEVERLY HILLS, CA, November 20, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- When you begin to consider breast augmentation, you may wonder what your final results will look like. This can be difficult to determine prior to surgery, as so many factors play a role in your final aesthetic results.

The first step to ensuring pleasing results is working with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Anyone with a medical degree can call themselves a "cosmetic surgeon." Only someone who has completed additional training and internships in plastic surgery and met the rigorous qualifications of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons can call themselves a plastic surgeon.

Factors that Affect Breast Augmentation Results

There are several factors that will affect the results of your breast augmentation. One of the most important decisions you and your plastic surgeon will make will be what type of breast implant you use. Both saline and silicone implants can offer pleasing results, but silicone implants tend to look and feel more like natural breasts. Saline implants typically offer a more rounded appearance.

Another decision you will need to make will be where your breast implants are inserted. You can choose to have your implants inserted above or below your chest muscles.

Implants inserted above the chest muscle may appear less natural because they are not supported by this additional layer of muscle. Surgical and recovery times are reduced with above-the-muscle placement, but the results may not look as natural.

When you visit your plastic surgeon for an initial consultation, you may wish to bring pictures of breasts that you finds attractive. Your plastic surgeon should listen to your aesthetic desires, assess your frame and natural curves, and evaluate the pictures you provide. With this information, he will better be able to determine what breast enhancement options will best provide you with the natural look you desire.

Regardless of whether you're seeking a subtle, natural appearance or a more obvious enhancement, your plastic surgeon can work with you to determine the best implant, incision and placement options to help you achieve your aesthetic goals.
