Enhance breast volume, shape, and proportion with an approach tailored to your anatomy and goals. At Addora Plastic Surgery, double board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Kamal Addagatla provides breast augmentation in Westchester with advanced surgical expertise, thoughtful planning, and personalized attention throughout your experience.
Enhance Breast Volume and Proportion
Breast augmentation is a cosmetic surgical procedure that increases breast volume and enhances shape, fullness, and proportion, typically using implants or fat grafting. Dr. Addagatla personalizes the procedure based on your individual anatomy, existing breast tissue, desired size, and aesthetic goals. Depending on the approach, an implant is carefully positioned within a surgically created pocket, or your own purified fat is transferred to the breasts to provide a more subtle increase in volume and contour.
When Breast Augmentation May Help:
- Naturally small breast volume
- Loss of breast fullness after pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Changes in breast volume following weight loss
- Breast asymmetry or differences in breast size
- Loss of upper breast fullness
- Underdeveloped or disproportionate breast contours
- Changes in breast shape associated with aging
Your Breast Augmentation Options With Dr. Addagatla
Breast augmentation is highly individualized, and the right technique depends on your anatomy, existing tissue, and desired degree of enhancement. Dr. Addagatla takes the time to understand how you want your breasts to look and feel before developing a surgical plan that creates balanced proportions while complementing the contours of your body. Your breast can be enhanced with implants or your own fat.
Breast Implants
With implant-based augmentation, Dr. Addagatla makes carefully placed incisions and creates a pocket within the breast to accommodate the selected implant. Depending on your anatomy and plan, the implant may be positioned above or below the chest muscle. Implant size, shape, and other characteristics are selected for your existing breast tissue and proportions. Once the implants are positioned, the incisions are carefully closed to support healing.
Breast Fat Grafting
Fat grafting enhances your breasts using tissue taken from another area of your own body. Dr. Addagatla first performs liposuction through small incisions to remove fat from an appropriate donor area, such as your abdomen, flanks, or thighs. The harvested fat is then processed and purified before being carefully injected into different areas of your breasts in small amounts, allowing him to build subtle volume and refine breast shape and symmetry.
Advantages of Breast Augmentation:
- Increases breast volume and fullness
- Enhances breast shape and overall body proportions
- Restores volume lost after pregnancy, breastfeeding, weight changes, or aging
- Helps improve differences in breast size and asymmetry
- Allows your results to be tailored to your anatomy and aesthetic goals
- Offers implant and fat grafting options for different degrees and types of enhancement
- May be combined with a breast lift when additional reshaping or elevation is needed
FAQs
Should I Choose Breast Implants or Fat Grafting?
Your choice depends largely on how much additional volume you want and the type of result you prefer. Implants can provide a more substantial and predictable increase in breast volume. Fat grafting uses your own tissue and is better suited to a subtler enhancement. Dr. Addagatla evaluates your goals, breast anatomy, and available donor fat to help you determine which approach may be appropriate for you.
Can Breast Augmentation Correct Sagging Breasts?
Breast implants can restore volume and provide additional fullness, but they do not necessarily correct significant breast sagging. If your nipples or breast tissue have descended substantially, you may benefit from combining augmentation with a breast lift. A lift removes excess skin and repositions breast tissue while augmentation adds volume. Dr. Addagatla determines which method best addresses your concerns.
What Are the Risks of Breast Augmentation?
Potential surgical risks include bleeding, infection, scarring, changes in breast or nipple sensation, asymmetry, and healing problems. Implant augmentation also carries implant-specific risks, including capsular contracture, displacement, rippling, and the possibility of future revision or replacement. Fat grafting has different considerations, including fat resorption, cysts, and fat necrosis. Dr. Addagatla reviews the risks relevant to your surgical plan during consultation.
