A Closer Look at Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation by Dr. Kishinevsky can enhance the size, shape, and symmetry of your bustline. She will work closely with you to help choose the right implants. We are a transgender-friendly office that aims to help all of our patients achieve precisely the results they desire.

Types of Implants

Saline Implants

Saline implants are made up of a silicone outer shell filled with a sterile saltwater solution. They tend to make the breasts look rounder in shape, and are firmer than silicone gel implants. Since they are inserted as empty shells and filled once in place, they require a smaller incision and result in minimal scarring. Some women prefer saline implants for their size flexibility. Dr. Kishinevsky can offer Spectrum™ adjustable breast implants that allow for size modification to a certain degree after placement.

Silicone Implants

Silicone implants are composed of a silicone outer shell filled with a silicone gel. Silicone gel is made to mimic human fat and thus looks and feels closer to natural breast tissue. The risk of leakage is low, and unlike saline implants, they will not collapse if they leak or rupture.

Am I a Candidate for Breast Augmentation?

Breast implants can address a variety of concerns, both cosmetic and reconstructive. Do note that if you are unhappy with a sagging bust line, you may be better suited for a breast lift. The breast lift procedure addresses sagging breast tissue and can be performed in conjunction with augmentation. Here are some of the main reasons patients choose breast augmentation surgery...

Underdeveloped/Asymmetrical Bust

If you have been unhappy with small or disproportionate breasts your whole life, surgery may help you achieve a fuller, more balanced figure.

Post-Pregnancy Changes

Many women experience a reduction in their breast size following pregnancy, childbirth, and nursing, and wish to restore fullness to their bust.

Restoration Following a Mastectomy

Dr. Kishinevsky performs breast reconstruction and augmentation for patients who have undergone a mastectomy to treat cancer. The procedure restores volume and projection to the areas impacted by surgery.

Transitioning 

We are an LGBTQ+ friendly office, and we can help patients who are in the process of transitioning. If achieving a fuller bust is one of your goals, we can provide a safe place for customized surgery.

What to Expect from the Procedure

Consultation

Dr. Kishinevsky makes it a priority to ensure that every patient is well informed and involved in treatment planning before proceeding with plastic surgery. Patients will go over their medical history, expectations, and an examination to ensure they are healthy enough for surgery. We will consider the various sizes, shapes, and types of breast implants and develop a customized procedure for you. You can also view a slideshow of before and after pictures in order to better visualize the results you want to achieve.

Anesthetic

Your comfort and safety are of the utmost importance. Our team will provide anesthesia for a pain-free experience during the procedure. You will remain sedated throughout the operation which typically takes between one and two hours.

Placement

Incisions are made in an inconspicuous location to reduce the appearance of scarring. The breast implant is inserted either under the pectoral muscle or directly behind the breast tissue. The type of incision and implant placement will be discussed prior to the operation and determined based on the type of breast implant, degree of enlargement, and aesthetic goals.

Closing Incisions

The plastic surgeon will close the incisions with layered sutures and bandage it with surgical tape and skin adhesive. You may be provided with a compression garment to wear following the surgery to help support the chest while you heal and to reduce swelling. 

Incision and Breast Implant Placement Techniques

Patients will also discuss what surgical method is best for their breast enlargement needs. Breast implants can either be placed above or below the chest muscle. The incision site will also be determined during the consultation. There are four different types of breast augmentation techniques that patients at our office can choose from:

  • Inframammary breast enlargement incision (along the breast crease)
  • Trans-auxiliary breast enlargement incision (under the arm)
  • Periareolar breast enlargement incision (around the areola)
  • T.U.B.A. breast enlargement incision (within the navel)

The decision on where the incisions are made is determined on a case-by-case basis by considering the patient's needs and desires. Dr. Kishinevsky understands the needs of women and always offers the least invasive breast augmentation procedure to minimize the appearance of scarring and provide a faster recovery time.

Breast Augmentation Recovery

Your recovery from breast augmentation will depend on the type of implant, placement technique, and adherence to post-operative instructions. Dr. Kishinevsky provides patients with specific guidelines to follow including...

Limiting Activities

It is important to limit your physical activities and get plenty of rest in the days immediately following the surgery. Patients can usually return to work one week after the procedure but should avoid strenuous exercise and physical activities for at least one month or until the doctor provides clearance.

Taking Medication as Directed

You can expect breast pain, swelling, and some fatigue during the first few weeks of recovery. The doctor can provide medication to help mitigate any discomfort, if needed.

Wearing a Compression Garment

Patients may be required to wear a compression garment around the chest for approximately six weeks following the breast implant procedure. This will reduce swelling, improve circulation, and provide support to your healing chest.
