Breast Augmentation
Understanding Breast Augmentation
Dr. Whitfield's augmentation philosophy prioritizes proportion over volume. Using high-resolution 3D imaging, implant profile, projection, and placement are selected to complement your existing anatomy for a result that appears entirely natural in and out of clothing.
Ideal Candidates- Congenital breast asymmetry or underdevelopment
- Volume loss following pregnancy or weight change
- Patients desiring a fuller silhouette
- Revision of prior augmentation
Dual-plane augmentation using cohesive silicone implants, placed through an inframammary incision under general anesthesia.
RecoveryReturn to desk work within 5 to 7 days; full exercise clearance at 6 weeks.
Frequently Asked QuestionsSilicone or saline?
The vast majority of Dr. Whitfield's patients select cohesive silicone gel implants for their natural feel and low rippling risk.
Will I need to replace my implants later?
Modern cohesive implants are durable, though periodic monitoring via MRI or ultrasound is recommended.
Can this be paired with a lift?
Yes — augmentation-mastopexy is common for patients with both volume loss and moderate ptosis.
