What is Breast Augmentation Surgery?

Breast augmentation is one of the most popular procedures administered at Dr. Lalla’s northern New Jersey offices. Specifically designed for women who want to enhance the shape and size of their breasts, patients will quickly notice a boost in confidence.

During the surgery, Dr. Sanjay Lalla will place your chosen implant behind each breast, underneath the breast tissue or the chest wall muscle. The incision will be discreet along the edge of the areola or in the breast fold to prevent noticeable scarring. Dr. Sanjay Lalla performs the surgery under local anesthesia and will complete the procedure within one to two hours. The patient will then return to Dr. Sanjay Lalla to remove the stitches.

Is a Breast Augmentation Right for You?

Breast augmentation lets women of all ages reclaim their confidence to feel beautiful in their skin. Board-certified cosmetic surgeon Dr. Sanjay Lalla stays dedicated to helping his patients achieve their dream bodies. Some common reasons why women consider breast augmentation surgery include:

• Dissatisfaction with current breast size
• Saggy or droopy breasts
• Loss of volume after pregnancy
• Drastic weight loss
• Asymmetrical breast size
• Breast reconstruction after mastectomy
• Breast reconstruction due to malformation or disfigurement

What are the Different Types of Breast Implants?

Patients may choose breast implant shells filled with saline (saltwater) or silicone gel, based on their specific needs. Both breast implant options are safe and boast unique benefits.

Silicone Gel Breast Implant

This option proves ideal for patients 22 or older. Made from a silicone outer shell with a soft cohesive silicone gel, these types of breast implants yield a natural appearance, and texture compared to saline breast implants. These implants work best for women with small frames or receiving breast implants as part of breast reconstructive surgery.

Saline Breast Implants

A silicone outer shell that holds a saltwater solution makes up saline breast implants. Once inserted into the breast, Dr. Lalla will fill the implant with the saltwater solution. This approach leads to a smaller incision and less scarring. Saline breast implants have a firmer feel compared to silicone gel breast implants.

The Recovery Process for Breast Augmentation

Patients can expect post-operative soreness, which will subside in two days. It is advisable to avoid getting the incision area wet within 48 hours (about 2 days) following the procedure. Dr. Lalla recommends sleeping in an inclined position for a week to reduce swelling. After 7-10 days (about 1 and a half weeks), Dr. Lalla will remove your stitches, so you may return to work and resume normal daily activities. Expect any swelling, pain, and sensitivity to diminish within the first few weeks and scars to fade in a few months. Avoid strenuous exercises such as running and weightlifting for at least a month post-surgery.
