Augmentation Mammaplasty
Problem:
- Small, underdeveloped breasts
- Unsatisfied with size of breasts
- Masectomy
Solution:
Breast augmentation, or augmentation mammaplasty, enlarges a woman's breasts through the surgical placement of breast implants thereby increasing the fullness and projection of the breasts. Breast implants add symmetry and balance to a woman's figure. A consultation with renowned Elk Grove Village breast augmentation specialist Dr. Kagan can determine implant placement, type (saline or silicone) and size based on your breast anatomy, body type and desired increase in size.
Under a general anesthesia, incisions are made to create a pocket either directly behind the breast tissue (submammary / subglandular placement) or beneath the pectoral muscle and on top of the chest wall (submuscular placement). The most common incisions include inframammary (near crease under breast), an auxiliary incision (in the underarm area) or a periareolar incision around the edge of the areola. The results of breast augmentation are visible immediately for patients in Elk Grove Village, Arlington Heights, Barrington, Schaumburg, Palatine and the surrounding area. Over time, breast augmentation patients will notice that post-surgical swelling will diminish and incisions will refine.
Although considered a cosmetic procedure, breast implants may also be used for reconstructive purposes to restore a breast that is lost due to mastectomy, injury or other reasons. In the case of sagging breasts (ptosis), a breast lift (mastopexy) may be performed in conjunction with breast augmentation.
As a renowned cosmetic surgeon in Elk Grove Village, Dr. Kagan is well versed in a variety of additional breast procedures, including breast lift, breast reduction and breast reconstruction. He has also earned a reputation leading Elk Grove Village, Schaumburg, Palatine, Barrington and Arlington Heights gynecomastia specialist and has helped numerous male patients reduce the size and alter the shape of their chests in order to achieve a more masculine look.
