Breast Augmentation Scottsdale, AZ | Dr. Ryan Tsujimura, MD

Breast Augmentation Overview

Breast augmentation is a sophisticated cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the volume and shape of a woman's breasts. Scottsdale Plastic Surgeons understand that breast implants can profoundly impact a woman's self-confidence and aesthetic goals. Multiple factors like pregnancy, aging, weight loss, or limited natural breast tissue make this procedure an excellent option for many patients.

Key Benefits of Breast Augmentation

• Enhances breast size and volume
• Restores breast appearance after significant life changes
• Balances asymmetrical breast shape
• Boosts personal confidence
• Provides versatile clothing options

Candidate Considerations for Breast Augmentation

Determining candidacy for breast augmentation is a personalized process. Ideal candidates are healthy individuals with fully developed breast tissue who are seeking aesthetic improvements. Women experiencing breast changes from pregnancy, aging, or weight loss may particularly benefit from this procedure.

Implant Options and Techniques

Implant Types

• Saline Implants: Filled with sterile saltwater solution
• Silicone Implants: Filled with cohesive gel mimicking natural breast tissue

Implant Placement Options

• Submammary: Over the muscle
• Submuscular: Mostly under the muscle

Surgical Procedure Details

Breast augmentation is performed under sedation in a surgical facility, typically taking 1-2 hours. Dr. Tsujimura utilizes a rapid recovery technique, allowing patients to return to normal activities more quickly. Patients can expect initial recovery within weeks, with final breast positioning occurring over several months.

Important Considerations

Modern breast implants are engineered for durability and safety. The risk of implant rupture is approximately 1% per year, with manufacturers offering lifetime warranties. Regular medical consultations and potential MRI evaluations help ensure long-term implant integrity.
