Breast augmentation is the most popular cosmetic surgery procedure in the United States because it gives good results that can make a big difference in how you look and how you feel, but it is not the only or even the best option for improving your appearance and your self-confidence. Here are a few other procedures that can either be used instead of breast augmentation or in concert with breast augmentation to get the best results. More information on these procedures can be found on The Bougainvillea Clinique's general site.
A breast lift is a procedure that corrects sagging breasts by removing excess skin and reshaping the breast into a more appealing shape. A breast lift can be done using just your own tissue, or it can be supplemented with breast implants. The main disadvantage of the breast lift procedure is of course the scars required. Dr. Hartog has extensive experience in combining breast implants with breast lift procedures using gel implants as well as the Spectrum Saline adjustable implant and has published and presented on this subject.
If your breasts are too large instead of too small, breast reduction may be the solution for you. Large breasts can be physically uncomfortable as well as unattractive. Breast reduction surgery can eliminate pain in the neck and back from large breasts and chafing below the breasts. It can also help your breasts look significantly better by improving the shape as well as reducing the size.
In many women, breasts appear small not because they are small, but because other parts of the body are larger. In particular, large deposits of abdominal fat can diminish the appearance of breasts. In some cases, the secret to making the breasts look better is not operating on the breasts, but improving the curvature of the body with body sculpting techniques like liposuction or tummy tuck. And in some cases the procedures are performed together to create the best possible appearance.
