Request an appointment to talk about your goals. From breast implant size consultation to breast reduction possibilities, we make a plan that improves your confidence and your comfort.
The Top 3 Reasons for Breast Augmentation
To understand if the best breast augmentation procedure in Atlanta fits your goals, ask yourself these 3 questions:
- Are my breasts too small?
- Would I feel more confident if my breasts had a different size or shape?
- Would I feel better in—and out of—my clothing with breast augmentation?
If you answered yes to any of those, then you have a good reason to learn more about this cosmetic surgery.
Think About Recovery Time, Too
Because this is a surgical procedure, you should consider the breast augmentation recovery process when making your decision.
Your breast enhancement plan should account for:
- Returning to work and normal activities 5 to 7 days after surgery.
- Temporary soreness, swelling, and bruising for 10 to 14 days .
- No heavy lifting for the first week after surgery.
- Waiting 6 to 8 weeks before engaging in strenuous activities/exercises.
- Having patience for the several weeks to months it takes for implants to settle. This could include wearing a breast band/strap for days or weeks.
We’ll discuss all of this during your consultation, including the needs of your unique situation.
Who is not a good candidate for breast implants near me?
Active smokers and those with multiple medical problems may not qualify for breast augmentation with implants. We will discuss these and other possible contraindications before surgery.

What exactly is a breast augmentation?
Breast augmentations use either fat transfers or implants to refine the overall shape, balance, and size of the breasts. The surgery can also reposition the areolas and nipples for a balanced, natural appearance.
In some cases, bigger may not fit your shape better. Breast reductions, implant removals, and breast lifts provide patients alternate avenues to improve how breasts look and feel.

What is a gummy implant?
We most often use silicone implants (filled with a cohesive silicone gel) and saline implants (filled with a sterile saltwater solution).
A “gummy implant” is a silicone implant with thicker and more cohesive gel than the usual silicone implant.
Patients choose gummy implants for an enhancement that retains its original shape more firmly over time. This works well for women who exercise regularly (less “bounce” during movement), and for thinner women with limited initial breast tissue.
