Breast Augmentation Fairfax, VA | Hess Plastic Surgery: Christopher L Hess, MD

Breast Augmentation in Northern Virginia

Many women seek breast augmentation to enhance breast size or restore fullness after weight loss or pregnancy. The procedure offers customizable options for implant sizes, shapes, and incision placements to meet individual patient goals.

Breast Augmentation Options

Today's breast implant techniques can deliver natural-looking results that balance body proportion. Both silicone gel and saline implants provide safe and reliable breast enhancement options. Individual patient anatomy is carefully considered to achieve optimal symmetry and proportional results.

Implant Selection Considerations

  • Personalized sizing based on body proportions
  • Choice between saline and silicone implants
  • Consideration of individual anatomical differences
  • Focus on achieving natural, balanced appearance

Surgical Approach

Dr. Hess typically makes incisions under the breast slightly below the existing crease, which minimizes visibility. The strategic placement ensures optimal implant positioning while maintaining aesthetic discretion.

Recovery and Expectations

Most patients experience mild swelling and discomfort immediately after surgery. Many can resume desk work within two days and gradually return to exercise after 3-4 weeks. Final results typically settle over several months as the body adjusts and heals.

Additional Procedure Options

Breast augmentation can be combined with other procedures like breast lift for comprehensive enhancement. The procedure is also frequently included in mommy makeover treatment plans.

If you want good results, DO NOT go to this doctor! I think he cares more about his pride then his patients! 3 weeks ago I saw Dr Hess for injections. The office gave me a quote of $11 per unit for Xeomin. The first thing I thought was strange was he did not do any of the markings on the face like other injectors. My previous injectors treated under my eye and when I asked him about injecting into the "jelly roll", he did not even know what that meant. I told him my concerns (Crow feet and 11's) and he decided to treat the 11's, the crow's feet and my forehead. He did not want to touch the brows, which had a nice lift and arch to them already. When I search google it says "if you treat the forehead with botox/xeomin you should treat the brows" but he choose not to. A week passed, and one eyebrow turned out to be a spock brow and the other brow had dropped, was hooded and very puffy. So, I had to wear double eyelid tape to hold it up a little. I made another appointment with him, told him what had happened. He said he did not see what I was talking about. He didn't even know what hooded or double eyelid tape was. I was literally in shock. I didn't know how he couldn't see what was wrong. My brows were nice and lifted before he worked on me. He continued to be rude and condescending. He made an excuse that my brows weren't even to begin with. I told him "well, they weren't like this"! I even said that my mother-in-law was giving me weird looks trying to figure out what was wrong with my face. He said "Well, maybe she's weird"! I practically had to beg him to fix it! He finally agreed to fix the dropped eyebrow and put 5 units under the brow. He said he will not treat the spock brow. I had to payed $63 for the touch up and it looks like the office lied about the price per unit. Also, I think he watered down that injection, it hardly did a thing and is still significantly hooded. This doctor is a crook, and not very professional. Do not go to him because if you do and there is something you are not happy with he is basically going to laugh in your face. Now I have to wait a couple months for this unnatural angry look on my face to go away.

Staff are always very friendly and helpful. Katie in the front office has been a dream to work with. She is very pleasant and I enjoyed our little conversations every time I visited the office. Dr Hess is very personable and knowledgeable. I like that he is very straightforward and gives realistic expectations. He is down to earth with a friendly and caring demeanor. I had visited other places before deciding on my procedure and wanted to make sure I chose the right doctor. I knew before I left the appointment with Dr Hess that I would be scheduling with him.

Just had my surgery yesterday 09/26/2022 All I can is wow , Dr.Hess is amazing at his job! Had a tummy tuck and liposuction and he gave me the hourglass shape I have always wanted! After 2 sections and working out so much, I could not achieve the body of my dreams just with exercise alone! It has only been less than 36 hrs and I feel great and look great! I know it will only look so much better with time as the swelling goes down . I'm so grateful for doing this surgery as, it's all I have ever wanted and even more. Love my new body 😍 forever grateful for finding the best surgeon and blessing me with my new body! Thank you so much Dr.Hess!

I highly recommend Dr. Hess. He was very professional and also his staff was very helpful about the whole process and procedure. They were very thorough on explaining what was expected pre and post surgery. The office was very clean and you won’t find any other office that would make you feel comfortable as soon you enter the door.
