Breast augmentation is arguably the most popular and commonly performed plastic surgery procedure today. Breast augmentation is performed to help increase the fullness and size of the breasts. Women seek out breast augmentation for a variety of personal reasons–some women have never had the breast fullness or proportions they desire, while others may have once had the fullness desired but found that their breasts decreased in size after weight loss, or pregnancy and nursing. In some cases the breast augmentation may be performed to correct a severe breast asymmetry (where one breast is more than a cup size smaller than the other).
Breast augmentation is performed on its own or in combination with other procedures such as a breast lift to both lift the breasts to a more youthful positioning and enhance the breast fullness. Breast augmentation may be performed as part of a mommy makeover to rejuvenate the areas of the body most affected by pregnancy, birth, and nursing.
