Breast Augmentation (also called breast augmentation mammaplasty) is a cosmetic procedure that uses implants to enlarge and shape the breast. Breast implant surgery performed by plastic surgeons is the most popular way to improve breast shape and size.  Women may choose to under go breast augmentation surgery for various reasons.

These personal reasons may be that she feels her breasts are too small or because of differences in the sizes of the breasts or from changes after pregnancy or breast feeding. Some women may be happy with their breasts but just want them made fuller. Often after weight loss, aging or childbirth a woman's breast volume and shape may change. This too can lead to a woman to seek a breast augmentation. Breast enhancement using breast implants can give a woman more proportional shape and may improve self esteem.

Patients who are generally satisfied with the size of their breasts can have a breast lift to raise and firm them, resulting in a more youthful breast contour.

If you have lost breast volume over the years and want to add more fullness, implants inserted in conjunction with a breast lift can increase breast size at the same time as the shape and position of the breasts are enhanced.  There are many variations in breast lift technique.  Dr. Blalock will determine the best technique for you based on the size and shape of your breast.
