Breast Augmentation

Serving San Francisco, San Jose, & Walnut Creek, California

Breast Augmentation is one of the most requested cosmetic surgery procedures in the U.S. today. More and more women who desire fuller, larger breasts choose this procedure to improve their appearance and self-confidence.

In addition to boosting your confidence, this cosmetic surgery procedure can expand your ability to wear a wider range of clothing and swimwear allowing you to create a desired personal style.

There are many different reasons for the strong interest in Breast Augmentation Surgery. The most common reason is a desire to enhance breast size and shape, creating a more proportional figure. Additional reasons include altering the appearance of breasts that have lost volume due to age, pregnancy, nursing, excessive weight fluctuation or as a reconstructive technique following mastectomy. Whatever the motivation, women who undergo breast enhancement can expect firmer, larger, more well proportioned and visually appealing breasts.

Breast Augmentation surgery, also known technically as Augmentation Mammoplasty involves the placement of a breast implant behind each breast to increase its volume and create a more attractive feminine appearance. At this time, saline (salt water) filled implants are used for most cases performed in the U.S. Improvements in implant materials and surgical techniques make the breast augmentation procedure more consistent, comfortable and easier than ever before.

Breast implant candidates have a number of choices and decisions to make regarding the surgery; breast implant size, shape and texture are just a few. While a great deal of breast implant information is available, there is no substitute for discussing your options in person during your consultation. Your initial breast augmentation consultation is an important first meeting and a valuable experience where we'll have the opportunity to discuss your goals and expectations.

Breast augmentation surgery takes approximately 2-3 hours to complete and is performed on an outpatient basis. Most people enjoy a rapid, comfortable recovery (one to three days) and it is often possible to return to work within a week.

Our new, state-of-the-art, fully-accredited and equipped operating suite offers an ideal, secure and private experience. However, depending on your preferences and needs, hospital facilities are also available.
