What Can Breast Augmentation Treat?
-
Naturally Small Breasts
This procedure can increase the size of naturally small breasts. Patients can achieve a more pleasing aesthetic tailored to their liking.
-
Post-Pregnancy Breasts
The changes that occur during and after pregnancy tend to affect a woman’s breasts. Breast augmentation can restore fullness to breasts that have decreased in size after pregnancy and breastfeeding.
-
Asymmetrical Breasts
Breast augmentation is also an excellent option for improving asymmetrical breasts. Through the placement of saline or silicone implants, patients can enjoy natural-looking results to gain the confidence they desire and a more beautiful figure.
“I heavily researched 2 surgeons and am so glad I went with Dr. Alexander. His bedside manner is the best I have ever seen and I deal with physicians on a regular basis for work. He addressed my concerns and anxiety I had about the actual surgery. I appreciated how accessible the office was after the surgery when I had questions. I would highly recommend Dr. Alexander to anyone looking for a very personal and professional experience.”
“Dr. Alexander and his staff are incredible. He is one of the most caring and professional surgeons I have ever met - and that is saying something because I work in a hospital. The staff are equally incredible and kind. They go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable. 5 months ago Dr. Alexander performed a breast augmentation surgery and the results are so natural my friends did not even notice I am 3 cups bigger! I have already referred Dr. Alexander to close friends. He is the best in the Valley.”
“Doctor Alexander is a miracle and made my experience exceptional, he really listened to my concerns and answered all my questions regarding the whole procedure. He made my breasts look like sisters again, I would even recommend him to my daughter and anyone looking for a breast augmentation or exchange. He is not your typical plastic surgeon and he really cares about your outcome. He is the best!!”
Concerns
Recovery
Full recovery typically takes several weeks, but most patients can return to work after the first week. It is important to follow all of Dr. Alexander’s instructions and avoid strenuous activity to ensure a smooth recovery process and optimal results.
Scars
Dr. Alexander uses the most advanced techniques of plastic surgery to minimize scarring. As with any surgery, there is a risk of visible scarring; however, both periareolar and inframammary scars are relatively inconspicuous with normal healing and tend to fade over time.
Cost
Over 20 years of experience and multiple board certifications make Dr. Alexander uniquely qualified to perform your surgery. Over the years, he has performed thousands of breast augmentation surgeries. Just like fingerprints, no two breasts are the same. Dr. Alexander creates results based on each patient’s unique needs and goals. He has enhanced a variety of different breast sizes and shapes, and patients appreciate the value of this experience.
The cost of breast augmentation depends greatly on the techniques used, anesthesia fees, surgical facility fees, and implant choice. Dr. Alexander’s staff will be able to provide you with an exact amount following your breast augmentation consultation.
Comfort
Patients experience less discomfort with long-lasting medication that Dr. Alexander administers during surgery. Typically, initial discomfort lasts 48 hours and gradually decreases each day. Post-surgery pain can be managed with oral medication. Dr. Alexander will recommend the pain management medicine that is best suited for you.
