Breast augmentation is a popular cosmetic surgery that enhances the size, shape and symmetry of the breasts using silicone or saline implants—or through fat transfer in some cases. This procedure is ideal for women looking to restore lost volume after pregnancy or weight loss, correct asymmetry, or simply achieve a fuller silhouette.
At Dermatology Skin and Surgery Center, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Sumita Saha works with patients in Battle Creek and Jackson, Michigan to choose the implant type, size, and placement that best aligns with their goals and body proportions.
What to expect
The procedure typically takes one to two hours and is performed under general anesthesia. Implants can be placed either above or below the chest muscle, depending on your anatomy and aesthetic goals. After surgery, you’ll experience mild swelling and soreness for several days, with most patients returning to light activities within a week. A supportive surgical bra will be worn during recovery to promote proper positioning and comfort. Results continue to improve over several weeks as the implants settle naturally into place.
