What is Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation, commonly referred to as a ‘boob job’ or mammoplasty, is a surgical enhancement procedure designed to improve the size and shape of a woman’s breasts. While this procedure effectively increases breast size, it does not reposition the breasts closer together or lift sagging breasts.
There are many variations, including breast lift without implants, breast augmentation with lift, textured implants, large breast implants, DD breast implants, small breast implants, saline breast implants, silicone breast implants, and high-profile breast implants.
What to Expect During Breast Augmentation Surgery in Inland Empire
Breast augmentation involves making a small incision to insert an implant into the breast area in order to enlarge the breast. There are several possible locations for the small incision that will be used for inserting the implant.
The most frequent technique utilizes an incision made in the lower portion of the breast. Another technique, though less frequently used, involves making an incision in the armpit. A third technique makes an incision around the areola (the darker skin surrounding the nipple).
A newer technique uses an incision in the belly button, known as Scarless Transumbilical Breast Augmentation (TUBA), thus reducing the chance of scarring in the breast area. This method allows for the insertion of implants through the belly button, providing a more discreet option. Dr. Wali will thoroughly discuss all techniques during your consultation, and together you will decide where the incisions will be placed.
During surgery, the breast tissue is raised to create an open pocket under the breast tissue or beneath the chest wall muscle. Inserting an implant behind each breast can increase a woman’s breast size by one or more bra cup sizes. Surgery typically lasts from 1 to 3 hours.
What are the Best Options for Breast Implants?
When it comes to breast augmentation, the choice of implants plays a crucial role in achieving your desired outcome. With advancements in technology, today’s breast implants offer a wide range of options, allowing for a personalized approach to enhance your appearance. Here are some important considerations as you begin your journey:
- Saline vs. Silicone: Which type of implant aligns better with your goals? Saline implants are filled with sterile saltwater, while silicone implants contain a gel that many find feels more like natural breast tissue.
- Size and Shape: What size do you envision for your breasts? Consider whether you prefer a round or teardrop shape to complement your body’s proportions.
- Desired Look: Are you aiming for a natural, subtle enhancement, or do you prefer a more noticeable augmentation?
Your Initial Breast Augmentation Consultation
During your initial consultation for breast augmentation, Dr. Wali will take the time to understand your aesthetic goals and expectations. He will perform a detailed examination to determine if breast augmentation is the right procedure for you.
Dr. Wali will also review your complete medical history, including any previous surgeries, current medications, and allergies, to ensure the procedure can be safely performed. He will explain the available options, including implant types and incision locations, and discuss any preparation steps needed before surgery, ensuring you’re fully informed and comfortable moving forward.
Scarring After Breast Augmentation Surgery
Scarring is a natural part of the healing process following breast augmentation or a ‘boob job’, and the size and location of scars will depend on the incision technique used. While scars initially appear red or pink, they gradually fade over time, becoming less noticeable within several months to a year. Dr. Wali provides post-operative care instructions, including tips for minimizing scar visibility, such as avoiding sun exposure and using scar treatment products. Proper aftercare can help scars heal effectively and blend in with surrounding skin.

FAQs
Is Breast augmentation and breast lift the same?
Breast augmentation involves inserting implants to increase breast size, while a breast lift (mastopexy) focuses on raising and firming the breasts by removing excess skin and tightening surrounding tissue. Many women opt for both procedures to enhance size and improve breast position. Read More About Breast Lift vs. Implants
How do I choose the right implant size?
Your surgeon will help you determine the right size based on your body type, aesthetic goals, and lifestyle. Sizers and imaging can assist in visualizing the potential outcomes.
Who is Breast Augmentation for?
Breast augmentation is ideal for patients who desire a fuller profile, who have lost breast volume due to pregnancy or nursing, or who have undergone breast reconstruction and want to gain a more natural look again.
Typically, breast augmentation is requested to improve a woman’s self-image. Post-operative surveys on the issues of mental health and quality of life have reported improvement in a number of areas. These areas include health, appearance, self-confidence, self-esteem, social life and sexual function. Most women report long term satisfaction with their breast implants.
Women choose breast augmentation surgery for many reasons. Breast enhancement for a “natural looking” larger breast is a common request for women who seek slightly larger, more shapely breasts or simply wish to fit better in clothing designed for women with cleavage. Breast augmentation may be performed with other procedures including breast lift and implants surgery.
Just like no two women’s breasts are exactly the same, implants and preferences vary. Some women may choose a more natural breast enlargement while others will prefer a larger breast with a more outward projection; other women simply want a restored breast following pregnancy or breastfeeding.
What is the Recovery time for Breast Augmentation?
Generally, post-operative instructions recommend plenty of rest and limited movement to promote healing and reduce recovery time. After surgery, Dr. Wali will apply bandages to support the healing process and minimize breast movement. Once these bandages are removed, you’ll need to wear a specialized surgical bra for several weeks to ensure proper support.
Patients may experience minor discomfort following the procedure, which can usually be managed with prescribed oral pain medication. Although complications are rare, following Dr. Wali’s post-surgery care instructions carefully is essential to minimize any risks and ensure a smooth recovery.
What are the different types of Breast Implant options?
Implants contain either a saline solution (similar to saltwater) or a silicone gel. In some circumstances, particularly those in which there is breast asymmetry (uneven breast size), an inflatable implant may be used to allow the surgeon to adjust the level of inflation to attain breast symmetry and balance. Dr. Wali will discuss the pros and cons of each type of material in order to choose the implant to best suit your surgical goals.
Can breast augmentation affect breastfeeding
Many women can still breastfeed after augmentation, but it can depend on the surgical technique used and individual factors. Contact us today to learn more about breast augmentation.
