3 Things to Consider When Getting a Breast Augmentation

Being called “flat chested” isn’t exactly a term that most girls like to be known for. However, if you fall into this category and are wanting to make a change, consider getting a breast augmentation done by Dr. Larry Weinstein. During this surgery, Dr. Weinstein will surgically place implants under or on top of your existing breast muscles to give you a more prominent look. During this surgery, however, you do have a few options to consider getting done in conjunction with a breast augmentation. Read on to learn more.

Tissue Expansion

If you are particularly petite, then Dr. Larry Weinstein may recommend that we do a tissue expansion surgery before your breast augmentation. This procedure is done to help loosen and expand the skin around the breasts so that the implants will be sufficiently covered. By placing a small balloon in your breasts and slowly inflating it over a few months, your skin tissue will expand— leaving you with fewer stretchmarks and more coverage over your implants.

Breast Lift

This type of surgery can be done at the same time as your augmentation. If you have noticed that your breasts don’t sit as high on your chest as they used to, Dr. Larry Weinstein can perform a breast lift to lift and tighten them. By getting rid of excess skin and lifting your breasts higher, you will look more youthful.

Nipple Reduction

If you have large, droopy, or long nipples that make you feel extremely self-conscious, Dr. Larry Weinstein may be able to perform a “nipple reduction surgery” at the same time as your augmentation. During this surgery, your nipple will be cut, so that is decreased in size and shape.

Before you get a breast augmentation done, it’s nice to know that you have a few other surgeries you can do in conjunction with it. To learn more or to schedule an appointment, contact Dr. Larry Weinstein today!
