Procedures: Breast Augmentation

Breast Augmentation, also called augmentation mammaplasty, is a surgical procedure that uses breast implants to increase the volume and enhance the shape of the breasts. The surgery is done in the operating room under general anesthesia. It takes about an hour and a half and you can go home the same day. At Parkway Plastic Surgery, we offer both silicone gel breast implants and saline breast implants. Each has benefits and at your consultation we will discuss which would be the best choice for you, personally. The implants can be placed under or over the chest muscle. Your ideal placement will also be addressed at your consultation. The incisions are small and well hidden.

We at Parkway Plastic Surgery believe that you, the patient, are most qualified to choose your implant size. Breast implants do not come in cup sizes. They are sized by volume in cc’s (milliliters). The same size implant may look quite different on different women due to body shape and original breast size. The choice of breast implant size is often a difficult decision. In order to help you achieve the look you desire, we have multiple ways to assist you. We recommend that you visit www.implantinfo.com to see a variety of before and after photographs of women with your body size. This site lists what size implants the women have so you can get a feel for the size range you may want. Because every woman’s body is different, we also do a formal sizing. At our office, we have a large variety of breast implants for you to try on (in a bra) so you can see what different volumes look like on you. You can either do your sizing at the same time as your consultation or as a separate appointment. Our expert staff is available to guide you, however, some women also like to bring a trusted friend or family member. Breast implants do not last a lifetime. Most women find that they need to replace their implants after 10-15 years. At Parkway Plastic Surgery we are committed to providing the best products available as well as appropriate patient education and follow-up.

Given the in-depth and personalized nature of your breast augmentation consultation in Jacksonville, please allow adequate time (approximately 1 hour) for us address your questions. The physicians and staff at Parkway Plastic Surgery are dedicated to helping you attain the result you desire.
