What are MyBreast Augmentation Options?

Breast Implant Type

Dr. Fata offers both saline and silicone breast implants.

Saline breast implants:• Allow for a smaller incision• Can be adjusted in size after placement• May not look and feel as natural as silicone alternatives

Silicone breast implants:• Look and feel like natural breast tissue• Are less likely to have aesthetic imperfections• May require a larger incision than saline alternatives

Breast Implant Shape

Breast implants come in rounded and tear drop shapes

Rounded breast implants:• Can rotate without impacting results• May not look as natural as tear drop alternatives

Tear drop breast implants:• Mimic the natural shape of breasts• Can produce asymmetry if they rotate*

*Tear drop implants are typically textured to prevent their rotation.

Breast Implant Size

Breast implants should create ideal symmetryand balance between the chest and the rest ofthe body.

Factors that will be considered by Dr. Fatainclude:

• Your natural breast size• The size of your hips• The size of your rib cage• The width of your collar bones

Incision Location

Dr. Fata offers three breast augmentation incisionoptions:

• Periarior (around the nipple)

• Inframammary (underneath the breast)• Transaxillary (through the armpit)

Dr. Fata has found that inframammary offers the bestoption for most of our patients because the incision iseasily hidden in the natural fold where breast and chestmeet. This incision also allows for both breast implantplacement options.

Breast Implant Placement

There are two breast implant placement options:

• Subglandular (above chest muscles)

• Submuscular (below chest muscles)

Submuscular placement is often the best choicefor women who are not engaged in weight trainingor other forms of body building. Placement belowchest muscles reduces risks of aestheticimperfections, allows for a completely natural feel,and may reduce risks of surgical complications likecapsular contracture.
