Breast Augmentation
Achieve Your Ideal Bust Size with a Breast Augmentation
WHAT IS A BREAST AUGMENTATION?
Are you longing for fuller, shapelier breasts that beautifully complement your figure and boost your self-confidence? Look no further than Breast Augmentation at Zion Plastic Surgery. Our skilled team of surgeons specializes in this transformative procedure, helping you achieve the curves you desire while enhancing your natural beauty.
A Breast Augmentation increases the size of fully mature breasts by inserting implants (saline or silicone) inside each breast. Commonly referred to as a “boob job,” this procedure can make smaller breasts appear larger, balance asymmetrical breasts, or restore fullness to sagging breasts that occur in women after weight loss or pregnancy.
Breast Augmentation with implants allows you to mold your breasts to your liking. The size, location, and shape can be adjusted to meet your specific requirements for your anatomy and aesthetic objectives. Before surgery, our highly trained Patient Care Coordinators will go through your options with you and help you choose your ideal breast size and shape.
Breast Augmentations are held at Zion Plastic Surgery’s accredited and registered surgical center, where your comfort and safety are paramount. The surgery takes less than one hour to complete, and patients typically experience minor pain and enjoy a short recovery period.

BREAST AUGMENTATION ELIGIBILITY
Most patients who choose to undergo a Breast Augmentation express feeling unhappy with their natural breast size and shape for most of their adult lives. Existing issues, such as little natural breast tissue, can worsen with weight loss, age, pregnancy, and breastfeeding. Many women consider having a breast augmentation to raise the position of the breasts on the chest while increasing their size.
The ideal age for a Breast Augmentation differs depending on the patient and procedure, ranging anywhere between 18 to 40 years old. Breast volume changes over time, so surgery is not considered until the final stages of development. The breasts should be fully developed and therefore more elastic.
If you are considering this type of surgery, you should discuss your options with a trusted plastic surgeon. Many factors, such as medical history and lifestyle, should be considered before deciding whether a Breast Augmentation is the right option.

What types of breast implants are available?
There are two different types of breast implants: silicone and saline.
- Saline breast implants are made from silicone shells filled with sterile salt water. Different profiles, styles, and sizes are available to suit individual needs. Saline implants do not carry any significant health risks and typically last between 10 to 20 years. It offers a more natural feel than silicone gel.
- Silicone breast implants are FDA-approved to be used in women aged 22 and over. They contain a silicone gel that feels similar to natural breast tissue. They run the risk of leaking into the surrounding breast tissue. Leaks are rare, but you will need to visit your plastic surgeon regularly so they can assess your condition. An ultrasound or MRI scan can help determine if the implants are functioning correctly.
Breast implants come in different shapes and sizes. The most popular are round and tear-drop-shaped implants.
- Round implants are the most popular shape for breast implants. They are also the least expensive to purchase. However, these breast implants may not always be the best option for women with smaller breasts or those who want a more natural look.
- Tear-drop-shaped breast implants are more expensive than round breast implants, but provide a more natural look and feel. These breast implants may not be suitable for women with larger breasts. Still, they may be a good option for women with smaller breasts who want a more natural-looking bust line.
Breast implant sizes are still determined by cup size and are usually categorized by letters: A, B, C, D, DD, DDD, etc. This can be confusing because they do not correlate with any measurements in inches or centimeters since there is no standardization of cup size across different brands of implants or countries. Therefore, it is essential to consult a qualified medical professional before cosmetic surgery.
When will I be able to return to work?
It is important to remember that recovery time varies from person to person. Recovery time from Breast Augmentation depends on many factors, including age, general health, etc. Your doctor will give you a better idea of when you should resume your normal activities.
