Breast augmentation is a popular cosmetic surgical procedure which is designed to increase the size of a woman’s breasts by placing implants under the breast tissue or the chest muscles. This procedure is ideal for women:
- Whose breasts didn’t develop to the desired size
- Who have lost volume in their breasts due to pregnancy, weight loss, or aging
- Who have asymmetrical breasts
- Who believe that larger breasts will provide a more flattering and better-proportioned figure
For such patients, a customized breast augmentation procedure will lead to feelings of greater confidence and self-esteem and even expanded clothing options.
