breast augmentation

For many women in and around Mesa, breast augmentation alone can produce the desired results. However, every woman has different needs, and no single procedure is ideal to address each of these concerns, which is why board-certified breast surgeon Dr. John Corey may discuss other procedures in addition to breast augmentation during your initial consultation.

Combining Procedures

Unfortunately, breast implants do not come in cup sizes. You cannot come into our Scottsdale plastic surgery office and ask Dr. Corey for D cup breast implants.

There are several reasons why measuring breast implants by cup sizes is not practical:

There are essentially two breast implant options to choose from when undergoing breast augmentation: saline and silicone breast implants. Both have advantages and drawbacks. The right type of breast implant for you will depend on a variety of factors, including your:

• Body type
• Amount of existing breast tissue
• Aesthetic goals

One of the most important choices you must make regarding your breast augmentation procedure is what size breast implants you desire. There is no one right answer to this choice. At your initial consultation, Scottsdale plastic surgeon Dr. John Corey will examine your breasts and listen carefully to your aesthetic goals before recommending the right breast implant size to achieve your goals.

Breast augmentation creates:

Part of your breast augmentation is deciding whether silicone or saline breast implants are right for your desired outcome and breast goals. Both have been safely used to increase breast size for decades, and ultimately the right breast implant depends on your preferences. One is not always better than the other.

Some of the main differences between silicone and saline breast implants include:

Choosing a breast augmentation incision option will be a decision made by you with guidance from experienced Scottsdale plastic surgeon Dr. John J. Corey. Dr. Corey can explain what you can expect from each incision as it relates to your final outcome.

Dr. Corey will use one of three incisions for placement of breast implants:

Breast augmentation is an important decision. The best way to get a personalized recommendation is to schedule a consultation with Scottsdale plastic surgeon Dr. John Corey, who will provide guidance in your decision making.

You are the best judge of whether the time is right for you to receive breast augmentation. Factors you may want to consider include:

Dr. Corey and I are commonly asked during consultations about the appearance of scars after a procedure. Surgery procedures like breast augmentation, tummy tuck (abdominoplasty), breast lift (mastopexy), and facelift surgery all require incisions to produce the results most cosmetic surgery patients seek. There is no such thing as scar less surgery… yet!
