Breast augmentation, also known as augmentation mammoplasty, is a surgery that increases breast size. It is an aesthetic surgery that uses breast implants (silicone or saline) or sometimes fat transfer to improve your breasts’ shape and size. The ultimate goal of breast augmentation is to enhance a patient’s natural proportions and create a more symmetrical, aesthetically pleasing breast contour.

You might be asking yourself why someone would want to have augmentation mammoplasty. There are several reasons why someone may find this type of surgery beneficial. Here are some of the most common reasons why someone would find this surgery appealing to them.

Having larger breasts can boost a woman’s self-esteem and make her feel more feminine. This can provide a sense of feeling more attractive, alluring, and self-assured.

Women with micromastia, or abnormally small breasts, often feel embarrassed about their appearance. This can lead them to feel less desirable or attractive. By having a fuller bust, it can provide a self-confidence boost.

Asymmetrical Breasts

Weight Loss

Losing a lot of weight can impact the breasts as they may no longer be full and plump. While achieving a healthy weight is a good thing, breast augmentation can provide a fuller chest in the case where weight loss has affected the breasts.

After Pregnancy

Some women find that after pregnancy and nursing, their breasts may droop or become smaller. Breast augmentation is a great way to restore a woman’s pre-baby body.

Mastectomy

Breast cancer and other serious health conditions can result in women having to remove one or both breasts. Reconstruction through breast augmentation can help a woman regain her femininity and feel complete after having to undergo a mastectomy.
