Breast Augmentation, Rapid Recovery Before & After Case 284

This 29-year-old woman was tired of her extremely small breasts which made it difficult for her to fit into clothing and swimsuits. Wanting her breasts to be fuller and more feminine-looking, she decided to contact Dr. Stoker after looking for a Los Angeles plastic surgeon with expertise in breast surgery.

When she met with Dr. Stoker, she explained how she felt while he listened intently. He agreed that a breast augmentation was right for her and discussed her options for implant size, shape and placement. Because she had little breast tissue to begin with, he suggested that she consider textured, cohesive silicone gel implants, often called gummy bear implants. These type of implants are much firmer than the previous generation of gel implants, which makes them less likely to ripple and less likely to rupture. By placing these implants under her pectoral muscle, she would have a more natural-looking breast slope and more natural-feeling breasts.

Sixteen months after her Los Angeles breast augmentation, she returned to have her "after" photos taken. As can be seen in her photos, her breasts are much fuller and look very natural. She was very pleased with the results and felt greater confidence in her bikini.
