Breast Augmentation Options in Atlanta

As adults, we put effort into looking a certain way. Our clothes, hairstyles, makeup, and posture reflect conscious choices we make to show the world a version of ourselves that feels genuine, empowered, and beautiful. So why should our breasts be any different?

Dr. Asaf Yalif, a triple-board-certified plastic surgeon in Atlanta, may dramatically enhance your breast size, contour, and symmetry with a procedure known as Breast Augmentation. In addition, the upper body's silhouette and proportions are often altered for the better, resulting in better-fitting clothing and a more symmetrical overall appearance. The purpose of breast augmentation, or any other breast enhancement procedures, such as breast lift (mastopexy), nipple correction, or areola reshaping, is to make you happier with your body and appearance.

What is Breast Augmentation?

During a Breast Augmentation, a silicone implant (prosthesis) is put under the breast (submammary) or between the breast and chest muscle (subpectoral) and then filled with saline. This prosthesis enlarges the breast area to give a fuller bust (larger cup size), better shape, and more cleavage.

Additionally, breast augmentation can use various types of breast implants, including saline breast implants, to achieve the desired look. Whether you aim for a subtle enhancement or a more dramatic transformation, this procedure is designed to improve your body proportions and boost your confidence. By choosing the right type of breast implants, you can ensure a natural and aesthetically pleasing outcome.

The Benefits of Breast Augmentation

At Y Plastic Surgery in Atlanta breast augmentation is tailored to meet your unique needs and aesthetic goals. Dr. Yalif understands that every patient is different, and he offers a range of options to ensure your procedure is as personalized as possible.

Enhances breast size and shape for a fuller, more proportional look

Boosts confidence and self-esteem
Offers a variety of choices in the type of breast implants

Your Atlanta Breast Implant Options

Women today have more breast implant options than ever before, which makes Breast Augmentation even more exciting for patients. Dr. Yalif offers multiple sizes of all breast implant styles, and you can choose round or shaped implants, depending on your personal preference. Your consultation with our Breast Augmentation surgeon, Dr. Yalif, sets the foundation for getting results that exceed your expectations. He can help you choose the size, shape, and type of breast implant filling that best suits your body and aesthetic goals.

Breast Implant Filling

Dr. Yalif offers implants by Mentor, one of the most trusted names in breast implant safety and technology. These implants can be filled with either medical-grade saline solution, cohesive silicone gel, or highly cohesive silicone gel, sometimes called “gummy bears.” The choice of implant filling is one of personal preference. Most patients believe the cohesive gel implants feel and look more like natural breasts and are used in more than 80% of Breast Augmentation procedures performed in the United States. Silicone implants arrive at our office pre-filled, so Dr. Yalif makes a slightly larger incision than he uses for saline breast implants, which he fills after they’re inserted.

Breast Implant Size

Most Breast Augmentation patients discuss their goals in terms of bra sizes—you may want to increase from a B to a D, for example. But breast implants are measured in cubic centimeters (cc) because bra sizes can vary a great deal depending on the brand. By listening to patients describe the types of results they want and performing a thorough physical exam, Dr. Yalif can help recommend implant sizes that can meet patients’ goals. Additionally, we use a volume-sizing kit that gives you a chance to envision the possible results and make adjustments if needed. This is a valuable tool that our patients appreciate.

Breast Implant Shape

Silicone gel implants can be either round, with volume evenly distributed all around, or teardrop-shaped, with more volume in the lower portion. Breast Augmentation patients who desire more upper breast fullness typically choose round implants.

How to Choose the Right Breast Implants

Choosing the right breast implants involves more than just size. At Y Plastic Surgery, expert breast augmentation surgeon, Dr. Yalif considers your body frame, existing breast tissue, aesthetic goals, and lifestyle to guide your implant selection. Whether you’re seeking a subtle enhancement or a dramatic change, your consultation will include:

A 3D assessment of your chest wall and breast width
Discussion about implant feel (saline vs silicone vs gummy bear)
Review of implant shapes (round vs teardrop)
Personal sizing session using sizers to visualize your results
Guidance on projection level (low, moderate, high)

Dr. Yalif works closely with each patient to ensure your breast implants match your vision and blend seamlessly with your body for natural-looking results.

Enhancing Expectations

Breast Augmentation Results: What to Expect

The shape of breasts with implants depends on the shape of the breast implant. Breast augmentation implants can be round or in the shape of a teardrop (more naturally anatomical). Which one a woman picks depends on how she wants to look. Anatomical implants give the upper part of the breast a gentle slope that makes it look fuller, while round implants give the upper part of the breast a round curve.

Additional Reading

Another thing to think about before Breast Augmentation surgery is the width of the breasts, which affects how much "cleavage" there is between the breasts and the outer curves. It's important to have realistic expectations. Some women think of their breast size in terms of the size of their bra cups. If a size "A" wanted to be a size "C," there still needs to be enough breast tissue to cover the implants.

Ideal Atlanta Breast Augmentation Candidates

The desire for fuller, shapelier breasts is something women of all ages may feel. Dr. Yalif believes that ideal Breast Augmentation candidates should be in good overall health and undergoing the procedure for personal fulfillment, not to attract or impress others. They also should have realistic expectations about the results. When considering Breast augmentation Atlanta and Alpharetta patients can anticipate a range of benefits, including:

Achieving the desired increase in breast size
Restoring lost fullness post-pregnancy or weight loss
Enhancing symmetry for uneven breasts
Harmonizing breast proportions with the body
Facilitating breast reconstruction after mastectomy or lumpectomy.

Request Your Consultation

Incision Site

Dr. Yalif performs breast augmentation by inserting implants through one of three types of incisions:

Inframammary

This is at the base of the breast, just above the crease where it connects to the chest wall. This is the most common location because they offer excellent access to the breast pocket and are well-concealed beneath the breasts.

Periareolar

These incisions are made along the lower edge of the areola, the darker skin surrounding the nipple. This is a very discreet incision, but you should inform Dr. Yalif if you plan to breastfeed in the future because there is a small risk of disrupting the milk ducts.

Transaxillary

A surgeon makes an incision in the underarm area. There is no scar on the breast, but the incision can be seen when lifting your arms while wearing a bikini or tank top. It’s not suitable for patients who get silicone gel implants.

Precision and Safety

Breast Implant Placement

Dr. Yalif uses the Keller Funnel® to insert breast implants for optimal sterility and safety during breast augmentation. The funnel enables him to place the implants without touching them, lowering the risk of complications. He places the implants either in front of or behind the chest muscle. A subglandular placement involves inserting implants behind the existing breast tissue but in front of the muscle. This is possible for patients with enough existing tissue to adequately camouflage the implant.

A submuscular placement involves inserting implants behind the pectoral muscle. This is a popular choice because the chest muscle provides more coverage for the implant, and the result often looks and feels more natural. Dr. Yalif also offers a subfascial implant placement. Using this technique, he creates a pocket behind a thin strip of connective tissue called the fascia—but in front of the muscle itself. It’s an appropriate approach in some cases and can be discussed with Dr. Yalif during the breast augmentation consultation.

Benefits Of Combining

Breast Augmentation with a Lift

For those looking to address sagging breasts in addition to enhancing their size and shape, combining breast augmentation with a breast lift can provide optimal results. This combination procedure not only increases breast volume with saline breast implants or other types of breast implants but also lifts and firms the breasts for a more youthful and perky appearance.

When considering getting a Breast Augmentation, our patients can find additional benefits when combining procedures:

Achieve fuller, higher, and more youthful breasts
Correct sagging and loss of volume simultaneously
Enhance overall breast shape and position
Enjoy long-lasting results with improved breast aesthetics

If you're considering breast augmentation surgery and have concerns about sagging, discuss the option of a combined procedure with Dr. Yalif during your consultation. He will help you understand how combining a breast lift with implants can meet your aesthetic goals.

How long does it take to recover from Breast Augmentation?

Breast Augmentation Recovery, Results, and Aftercare

After Breast Augmentation, patients typically experience a well-tolerated recovery process. You can anticipate a week or so of pain from the incisions; expect muscle pain as well if the implants were placed behind the muscle. The second week is usually considerably better with much less sharp pain with some muscle soreness and aching.

In addition, the breast implants will start to feel a bit softer as the tissues accommodate the implant. Dr. Yalif may allow you to resume exercise at this point while wearing a sports bra or may ask you to wait a few more weeks if the breast augmentation surgery was more extensive. The implants will continue to soften and settle over the next four to eight weeks.

Maintaining your Breast Augmentation results

It has been shown that Breast Augmentation treatments lead to results that last for at least ten years. All breast implants are safe and long-lasting. This means that silicone implants, saline breast implants, and fat transfer implants are all made to last as long as possible in the body. You can expect the benefits of your breast enlargement to last at least ten years, and some may last up to twenty years.

Breast Augmentation Frequently Asked Questions

Can Breast Augmentation be combined with other procedures?

Yes. Many women choose to combine Breast Augmentation with other procedures like a tummy tuck or liposuction as part of a mommy makeover. This approach addresses multiple areas in one surgery for a more complete transformation.

How much does Breast Augmentation cost in Atlanta?

Breast Augmentation at our practice typically costs around $7,900. The final price may vary depending on the type of breast implants used and your personalized surgical plan. You’ll receive a detailed quote at your consultation.

Can you breastfeed after a Breast Augmentation?

Yes, most women can breastfeed after a Breast Augmentation. Using an inframammary incision helps avoid disruption of the milk ducts. Even if a periareolar incision is used, it typically does not cause enough scarring to interfere with breastfeeding. Keep in mind that not all women are able to breastfeed, regardless of implants.

How painful is Breast Augmentation surgery?

The level of discomfort depends on incision type and implant placement. If placed above the muscle, most patients describe mild soreness. Implants placed beneath the muscle can cause a deeper ache for several weeks. Most Breast Augmentation patients manage well with prescribed medication and feel better within a few days.

Is Breast Augmentation safe?

Yes, Breast Augmentation is a safe and widely performed procedure. As with any surgery, there are risks such as infection or implant complications, but these are rare. Dr. Yalif will thoroughly review all safety information, including risks like capsular contracture or BIA-ALCL, during your consultation.

How long do breast implants last?

Most breast implants are designed to last 10 to 20 years. While some patients choose to replace them earlier due to preference or body changes, others keep theirs longer without issue. The FDA recommends regular monitoring and replacement around the 10-year mark.

What’s the difference between saline and silicone implants?

Saline implants are filled with sterile salt water and inserted empty, allowing for smaller incisions. Silicone implants come pre-filled with a cohesive gel that mimics the feel of natural breast tissue. Both are safe, and the choice depends on your goals and body type.

Will pregnancy affect my Breast Augmentation results?

Yes. While the implants themselves remain unchanged, pregnancy and breastfeeding can stretch or alter your natural breast tissue, which may affect how your breasts look afterward. Some women choose a Breast lift later to maintain their results.
