Implant Size
The first decision that a patient will make in regards to breast augmentation is the size of the implant. Dr. Eliopoulos will listen to your desires and advise you on the best implant size. In addition, Dr. Eliopoulos will temporarily place implant sizers during the breast augmentation surgery to determine what size implant provides symmetry and the desired fullness.
Implant Type
Implants are silicone shells filled with a solution. Implants can be filled with either sterile salt water (saline) or a plastic gel (silicone). Many women believe that silicone implants feel more like natural breasts. Dr. Eliopoulos can help you determine the best type of implant for you.
Surgical Incision
There are different incisions that can be made during breast augmentation surgery. Typically an incision will be made at either the base of the breast or along the lower edge of the areola. Where the incision is made will depend on your body, the type of implant being used, and the size of the implant.
Implant Placement
The breast implant can be placed either above or below the chest muscle. The best placement for your implant may depend on how much breast tissue you have to cover the implant. Dr. Eliopoulos can discuss implant placement with you and determine your best option.With Dr. Eliopoulos’ expertise you can be assured that each surgical option will be selected with your unique desires and needs in mind.

About Breast Augmentation Surgery
First, some of the basics. Breast augmentation surgery involves the placement of breast implants in order to increase the size and alter the shape of the breasts. The breast implants come in many different shapes, sizes, and compositions to meet the patient's needs, and incision method will be determined by these choices.
What to Expect Immediately After Surgery
Immediately after undergoing breast augmentation, patient will often feel tired and groggy. This is natural and part of the healing process after undergoing any sort of surgery. What's most important is that you get a lot of rest and follow your doctor's instructions to the letter. Any discomfort experienced can be managed through careful use of medication.

The First Days After Breast Augmentation Surgery

As patients recover from breast enhancement surgery, they will notice many changes regarding breast sensitivity and nipple sensation. This is all part of the recovery process and natural. And bruising or discomfort should have subsided after a few weeks, and patients will be able to return to work and slowly resume most regular activities at their surgeon's discretion.

Your cosmetic plastic surgeon will often tell you to avoid the following activities:
- Strenuous physical activities
- Heavy lifting
- Sexual activity
- Smoking
- Alcohol consumption
- Taking aspirin or aspirin-type products
What You Can Expect from the Months Ahead
In the months ahead, patients will be back to good health and able to engage in the same activities that they used to prior to surgery. Patients will also notice that any scarring from surgery will have faded over the next few months. The amount and degree of fading will vary from patient to patient, though the results are generally very positive.
