BREAST AUGMENTATION SEATTLE & TACOMA

A Seattle breast augmentation can do much more than increase breast size for purely cosmetic purposes. Many women are genetically predisposed to smaller or misshapen breasts. Others experience changing breast shapes due to pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight loss, or cancer. Whatever the reason, a lack or loss of breast tissue is a common cause of self consciousness for women. Seattle breast implants may help restore some of the lost volume and treat mental distress changes in the body can cause. At Seattle Plastic Surgery, we offer breast augmentation in Seattle that will help you gain self confidence and the fuller bust you yearn for.

WHAT IS BREAST AUGMENTATION SEATTLE SURGERY LIKE?

The way your cosmetic surgeon performs Seattle breast augmentation depends on your implant choice, body, and goals. As with your choice of implants and type of augmentation, you have a say when it comes to the incision and the placement of your breast implants Seattle.

On the day of your surgery, our staff will greet you and prep you for surgery. Just before surgery, we will place you under general anesthesia and ensure your comfort during the surgery. The majority of breast augmentations in Seattle take approximately an hour, but depending upon the specifics of your surgery could take longer. 

During surgery, your cosmetic surgeon will make your choice of incision and create a pocket either above or below the pectoral muscle. They will then place the Seattle breast implants into this pocket and your cosmetic surgeon will close the incision using sutures and surgical tape.

WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS FOR BREAST AUGMENTATION IN SEATTLE?

There are many breast augmentations in Seattle we offer to help you achieve your cosmetic goals. Since every woman’s body and goals are different, each implant and augmentation option provides a different look or option for your Seattle & Tacoma breast augmentation.

Saline Breast Implants:

Saline breast implants consist of a silicone shell that surgically placed and then filled with sterilized saline. Saline breast implants Seattle are best suited for women with a fuller chest who want to achieve dramatic results. Many women believe saline implants do not look or feel as natural as other breast implant options. But depending upon your body and breast augmentation goals, your doctor may recommend or you may decide that saline implants are the best option for you.

Silicone Breast Implants:

Silicone breast implants are by far the most popular choice of breast augmentation in Seattle & Tacoma. They come pre-filled and–due to this–require a slightly larger incision than saline implants. However, women often say that silicone breast implants Seattle look and feel more natural. Compared to saline breast implants, silicone breast implants are less likely to ripple or wrinkle.

Gummy Bear Breast Implants:

Gummy bear breast implants are a type of silicone implant that consists of a cohesive gel–similar in consistency to the gummy candy they are named after. They are more likely to hold their structure in the event of a rupture. We offer two shapes of gummy bear implants in Seattle: round and anatomical. You and your cosmetic surgeon can discuss the shape which best suits your cosmetic goals during your Seattle breast implants consultation.

Other than your choice of saline or silicone implants, you will have a variety of other choices concerning your breast implants in Seattle & Tacoma: 

  • Size and shape of implant
  • Incision placement
  • Smooth or textured implants
  • Implant placement (over or under the muscle)

Fat Transfer:

Another breast augmentation option is fat transfer breast augmentation. This type of augmentation consists of two steps. First, your cosmetic surgeon will liposuction fat from another part of your body, often the abdomen or thighs. Second, your cosmetic surgeon will purify the fat and skillfully inject it into your breasts to achieve a more natural-looking breast augmentation. For some women who want only a mild augmentation, fat transfer may be a more attractive option than Seattle breast implants.

Many women are interested in fat transfer augmentation in Seattle & Tacoma because of the many benefits and advantages it offers. A few of these benefits and advantages include: 

  • No risk of capsular contracture
  • No incision
  • Less invasive
  • No or very minimal scarring
  • No risk of an allergic reaction or rejection because the implanted material comes from your own body
  • Typically less downtime and a quicker recovery
  • Results that look and feel natural

    Types of Incisions:

    Our cosmetic surgeons at Seattle Plastic Surgery specialize in breast augmentation surgery and perform it using four main types of incisions: 

    • Inframammary: The crease where the breast meets the chest
    • Periareolar: Around the areola
    • Transumbilical: Near the belly button
    • Transaxillary: Through the armpit

    TYPES OF BREAST IMPLANTS PLACEMENTS

    When deciding the placement of your breast implant, you have two choices: 

    • Submuscular placement: This placement is when the breast implant is positioned beneath the pectoral muscle. This is the most common placement for breast implants in Seattle & Tacoma because there is less risk for complications such as rippling and capsular contracture
    • Subglandular placement: This placement is when the breast implant is placed under the breast tissue, but above the pectoral muscle. Subglandular placement has a shorter and easier recovery time. This placement may also benefit women who need a slight lift their breasts as well.

    During your consultation, your cosmetic surgeon can describe the specifics of these placement options so that you can make an informed decision about the placement of your breast implants.
