Ideal Candidates for Breast Augmentation

One of the hallmarks of our network is that our doctors never take a “one-size-fits-all” approach to cosmetic surgery. Our practitioners approach each patient on an individual basis, as no two patients are ever exactly the same. During your consultation, we’ll get to know your cosmetic goals, and will guide you to the procedure that is right for you, your aspirations, and your lifestyle.

You’re likely to be a great candidate for breast augmentation if you would like to address:

Before & After Breast Augmentation

Your Breast Augmentation Surgery

Before your procedure, you’ll meet with your surgeon to go over all the important details that pertain to your procedure. When it comes to breast augmentation, there are many different methods by which a surgeon can create their results.

Incision Placement

You and your surgeon will discuss the various types of incision placement, so you can know exactly what to expect in terms of post-surgical scarring. Different incision options offer patients different ways to hide and conceal their scars, so you can work with your doctor to pick an incision placement that works best with your lifestyle.

Implant Type

Part of your consultation will also involve picking out the exact type of implant you receive. Not only will you be able to decide on the size and shape of your implant—according to your body type and proportions—but you’ll be able to choose between saline and silicone, as well. Your doctor will help you make the most informed possible choice.

Surgery Details

Your doctor will also talk you through all of the important details about the procedure itself, going over everything from surgery duration and operating time, to the specifics of how the procedure actually works and how your implant will be placed. Our goal is to set your mind at ease, so feel free to ask any questions you might have.

Our Three Types of Breast Implants

When considering breast augmentation, patients can choose from three main types of implants: saline, silicone, and cohesive gel (also known as “gummy bear” implants).

Saline Implants

Filled with a sterile salt-water solution inside a silicone shell
FDA-approved for women aged 18 and older
Known for their adjustability and a slightly firmer feel

Silicone Implants

Filled with silicone gel, offering a more natural feel and appearance
FDA-approved for women aged 22 and older

Cohesive Gel (“Gummy Bear”) Implants

A newer FDA-approved option in the United States, popular worldwide for years
Filled with a highly cohesive gel that maintains its shape, even if the shell is compromised

Each implant type has unique benefits and considerations. During your consultation, Dr. Liu will guide you through the decision-making process, helping you select the option that best suits your body type and aesthetic goals.

RNR Procedures

Introducing our Signature RNR™ Procedures

At the Silicon Valley Institute for Aesthetics, we’ve pioneered an approach that foregoes the need for narcotics pain medications, thanks to our signature RNR Procedures. If you want to learn more about our various RNR Procedures, simply reach out to schedule your consultation with a member of our team today. Our RNR Procedures were designed to offer significant healing benefits to our valued patients. You’ll love our RNR Procedures because of the following benefits:

Accelerated aftercare process
Minimal use of opiates
Use of gentle medications
No restrictions on movement
No need for special dressings, bras, or drains
Use of nerve blockage for enhanced comfort
Ability to shower within 24 hours of your procedure

RNR Breast Augmentation

During our RNR Breast Augmentation procedure, we’ll use local anesthetic techniques to block specific sensory nerves paired with medication that helps avoid post-op nausea. Doing so helps to promote a speedy aftercare process and reduces postoperative pain. Additionally, our “no-touch” technique helps prevent bleeding, while using the Keller funnel minimizes the risk of capsular contracture. The Keller funnel also reduces tissue injury during the procedure, along with antibiotic and betadine irrigation.

Your SVIA surgeon will utilize a surgical closure technique that minimizes scarring, and we’ll only outfit you with a surgical dressing. This means you won’t have to deal with wraps that limit your range of motion, so you can be mobile as quickly as possible.

Recovery

Many surgical patients want to know as much as possible about how they will manage pain and discomfort during recovery. In response, SVIA is pleased to offer our signature RNR Procedures, which allow patients to avoid using opiates while enjoying a shortened aftercare process. Along with highly detailed aftercare instructions, we will schedule follow-up appointments to ensure your healing and recovery involves minimal downtime and discomfort.

We’ll ensure you are prepared with everything you need to manage your discomfort. Most patients can resume their regular routines within three to four weeks. Within two days following your breast augmentation, you should be able to get up and move around.
