Breast augmentation in San Francisco offered by Dr. Kind and Dr. Chang. Women who desire larger breasts may wish to have a breast enlargement (augmentation) procedure. Breast augmentation may also be indicated for women who have one breast that is noticeably smaller than the other. San Francisco plastic surgeon Dr. Kind and Dr. Chang state that breast augmentation is intended to give the patient larger and more shapely breasts. A more positive self image may also be a result of breast augmentation.

Breast augmentation surgery is done on an outpatient basis under general anesthesia. A small incision is made under the breast and a saline breast implant is inserted under the breast tissue or under the breast tissue and the underlying muscle. The patient goes home in an elastic bra. The bra helps hold the breasts in the correct position. Initial discomfort is controlled with oral medication. Sutures are placed under the skin and do not need to be removed. Light activities can be resumed as tolerated and aerobic activities can be started in about 3 weeks. Moving or sliding the implants within the breast pockets during the postoperative period may reduce the frequency of wrinkling. An additional procedure that would enhance the result of a breast augmentation is a Mastopexy (breast lift) - if the breasts are sagging in addition to being small.
