Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that enhances breast size and shape using implants or, in some cases, fat transfer. It's one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in the United States, helping women achieve fuller, more proportionate breasts that align with their aesthetic goals. During the procedure, your surgeon places either saline or silicone implants behind the breast tissue or chest muscle. You'll work together to choose the implant type, size, shape, and placement that best suits your body type and desired outcome. The result is natural-looking breasts that enhance your overall silhouette and boost your confidence. Breast augmentation isn't just about increasing size. The procedure can also restore breast volume lost after pregnancy or weight loss, create better symmetry between uneven breasts, and improve overall breast shape. Modern techniques and advanced implant options allow for highly customizable results that look and feel natural.
Not everyone is an ideal candidate for breast augmentation. Understanding whether you're a good fit helps ensure your safety and satisfaction with the results.
You should be in good overall health without medical conditions that could impair healing or increase surgical risks.
Understanding what breast augmentation can and cannot achieve is crucial for satisfaction with your results.
Being at or near your goal weight is important. Significant weight fluctuations after surgery can affect your results.
Your breasts should be fully developed. Most surgeons require patients to be at least 18 for saline implants and 22 for silicone implants.
You want larger breasts, better symmetry, or restored volume after pregnancy or weight loss.
Smoking impairs healing and increases complication risks. You'll need to stop smoking several weeks before and after surgery.
Your breast tissue should be healthy without signs of infection or disease.
Your desired breast size should be proportionate to your body frame.
Breast implants require monitoring over time. You'll need regular check-ups to ensure implant integrity.
Wait until after pregnancy and breastfeeding, as these can significantly change breast shape and size.
Any breast health issues must be resolved before considering augmentation.
If you expect perfection or believe breast augmentation will solve deeper personal issues, you may not be a good candidate.
Autoimmune disorders, uncontrolled diabetes, or bleeding disorders can increase surgical risks.
If you're unwilling to quit smoking, breast augmentation isn't safe for you.
You must be at least 18 years old for saline implants or 22 years old for silicone implants, per FDA guidelines.

Selecting the right surgeon is the most important decision in your breast augmentation journey.
Your surgeon must be certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS). Board certification means your surgeon completed rigorous training, passed comprehensive exams, and maintains high ethical standards.
Check the ABPS website directly or use the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) 'Find a Surgeon' tool.
Some physicians claim to be 'board certified' but are certified in unrelated specialties that don't require plastic surgery residency training..
Board certification is your baseline, but breast augmentation specialization takes your safety and results to the next level.
A surgeon performing 50+ breast augmentation procedures annually has the experience necessary for optimal results.
Has your surgeon attended advanced breast surgery courses? Do they stay current with the latest implant technologies and techniques?
A quality surgeon is transparent about their outcomes. Experienced breast augmentation surgeons have significantly lower complication rates.
Look for patients with similar body types to yours. Pay attention to symmetry, proportion, implant positioning, and scar placement.
