HB: What concerns do a breast augmentation work to address?

A breast augmentation works to replenish loss of volume, improves curvatures, enhances your appearance, and corrects uneven or asymmetrical breasts. Restore your breasts fullness after pregnancy or breastfeeding, and improve your self confidence!

HB: Walk us through the breast surgery procedure?

Patients come in for initial consultation to discuss concerns and improvements they want. The consultation addresses the types and sizes of implants, as well as the implantation of incision options. Next, a surgical plan is formulated. After the consultation, the patient is then scheduled for surgery and given a list of pre/post-operative instructions to follow. 

HB: Who is a good candidate?

The ideal candidate for a breast augmentation surgical procedure is a healthy patient.

HB: What is the recovery time like?

Recovery is unique for each patient! Patients must refrain from upper body exertion immediately following surgery and for several weeks post-operation.

HB: What is the cost?

Much like recovery, surgery pricing is unique to the patient as well. Typically, a breast augmentation begins at $7,000 but could range to accommodate the patient’s individual needs.
