What is Breast Augmentation?

Breast augmentation surgery, also known as augmentation mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure that increases the size, shape, or fullness of the breasts. The process involves creating a pocket either behind the breast tissue or partially beneath the pectoral muscle to house a medical-grade implant. Dr. Sukkar uses specific techniques to minimize trauma to blood vessels and surrounding structures, helping the body heal properly.

At our plastic surgery practice, we use high-cohesive silicone breast implants—often called "gummy bear" implants—and traditional saline implants. Dr. Sukkar selects specific placement methods based on your existing fat tissue and rib cage anatomy. This ensures the transition from the chest wall is smooth, avoiding a "stuck-on" appearance. For those looking for a very subtle increase without a device, we also offer fat transfer breast augmentation, which uses your own fat to add volume.

Beyond the Simple Aesthetic

Benefits of Breast Augmentation

Enhancing your bustline offers more than just a change in bra size; it often improves body image and self-esteem. Our patients find that their clothes fit better and their overall body proportions feel more balanced.

Tailored Proportions: Align your bust with your hips for a classic hourglass shape.
Volume Restoration: Replace fullness lost due to weight loss or pregnancy.
Symmetry Correction: Address natural differences where one breast is smaller than the other.
FDA-Approved Materials: We use only the safest silicone gel implants and saline breast implants.
Improved Confidence: Achieve a natural appearance that boosts your self image.

Finding
the Right Physical Fit

Am I a Candidate for Breast Augmentation?

A good candidate is a healthy individual with realistic goals for their plastic surgery. Most women seeking this cosmetic surgery want to address a lack of breast size or minor asymmetry. It is important that you have enough healthy tissue to cover the breast implants securely.

This procedure is not a substitute for a breast lift. If you have sagging breasts where the nipple sits below the breast fold, Dr. Sukkar may suggest combining an augmentation with a lift. During your consultation, we will review your medical history and any history of breast cancer or breast pain to ensure your safety is the top priority.

What Happens
on Surgery Day

Your Treatment Experience

Your surgery takes place in our private, accredited surgery center near Friendswood. You will be placed under general anesthesia administered by a professional team. Dr. Sukkar makes precise incisions to facilitate implant insertion while keeping scars discreet.

Common incision sites include the inframammary fold (the crease under the breast) or a periareolar incision around the edge of the nipple. Dr. Sukkar often places the implant partially beneath the chest muscles to provide better coverage and a more natural slope. The entire process takes about one to two hours, after which you will recover in a private suite with our specialized nursing team.

The Timeline
for Your Return

Recovery After Breast Augmentation

Most patients return to a normal daily routine within three to five days. You will need to wear a supportive sports bra for several weeks to keep the augmented breasts in their intended position. While you may experience some initial tightness, this typically resolves as the chest muscles relax.

Following your follow-up appointment, Dr. Sukkar will advise you on when it is safe to increase your activity. It is vital to avoid heavy lifting or high-impact exercise for at least six weeks to ensure the scar tissue forms correctly around the implant.

When
Your New Look Settles

Breast Augmentation Results

You will notice an immediate change in breast volume right after the augmentation surgery. However, the final breast shape takes about three to six months to fully realize as the silicone gel or saline settles and the tissues soften.

While many women enjoy their results for over a decade, breast implants are not lifetime devices. We recommend regular breast imaging to monitor for implant rupture or breast implant rupture. Maintaining a stable weight will help preserve your results over the long term.

Investing in Your Aesthetic

Cost of Breast Augmentation

Pricing reflects the customization required for your anatomy and the implant type you choose. Silicone implants generally have a higher price point than saline. Your total cost covers the fees for the plastic surgeon, anesthesia, facility, and all follow-up care.

We believe in financial transparency. To make cosmetic surgery procedures more accessible, we offer financing through providers like Cherry, CareCredit, and Prosper. We’ll provide a detailed quote during your visit.

Breast AugmentationFAQs

What is the difference between silicone and saline implants?

Silicone breast implants are filled with a cohesive silicone gel that mimics the feel of natural fat. Saline implants are filled with sterile saltwater and can be adjusted during the procedure. Dr. Sukkar will help you choose based on your goals for breast size and feel.

What are the risks of breast implants?

As with any surgery, there are potential risks, including capsular contracture (hardened scar tissue) or implant rupture. Very rare risks include breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL). Dr. Sukkar will discuss these in detail during your consultation.

Can I have my implants removed later?

Yes, if you decide you no longer want them, you can have your implants removed. Some women choose to replace them with a fat transfer to maintain some volume using their own fat tissue.

Will implants affect my immune system?

There is no clinical evidence that implants negatively impact the immune system. Some patients mention "breast implant illness," but medical studies continue to evaluate these reports to provide the most accurate information.

How do I prepare for surgery?

You should avoid medications that increase bleeding, such as aspirin, for two weeks before your date. Dr. Sukkar’s team will provide a full list of instructions to ensure you are ready to perform well during recovery.

How is a breast augmentation different from a breast lift?

An augmentation adds volume, while a breast lift removes excess skin to treat sagging. Many patients choose to combine both to achieve the best breast shape and position.
