Breast Augmentation in Hattiesburg, Mississippi

Breast size is important to many women for a variety of reasons. Many women have lost breast volume after having children. Others have never had breasts that they felt were proportionate to their size. Whatever the reason, breast augmentation has become the most common cosmetic procedure I perform. If you are dissatisfied with your breast size, augmentation surgery is a choice to consider.

Women these days have a variety of implants to choose from. I tend to like the smooth-walled implants because I believe they give a more natural result than the textured implants. I think these tend to ripple more because they adhere to the tissue under the skin. Two types of implant are available, the saline or salt-water filled implants and the silicone or gel-filled implants. Both are excellent implants and I feel both are very safe. Which type is best for you is something we talk about extensively during your consultation We can also help you determine both the correct size and type of implant that suits you best.

I do the procedure under general anesthesia in our full-accredited outpatient surgical facility. I believe this is the safest approach and patients tolerate this much better than local anesthesia with sedation. I prefer the peri-areolar or “under the nipple” incision because it heals very well in is almost invisible when completely healed. With the silicone implants however, generally a submammary incision or “under the breast” incision is necessary. The incision is also something we talk about extensively in the office during your consultation. (Look at our photo gallery).

Breast augmentation can increase fullness and projection of your breasts, improve the balance of your figure and enhance your self-image and self-confidence. I have done over 1000 of these procedures over the years and don’t know of anyone who is sorry that they did it!
