Breast Augmentation: Myth vs. Reality

The reality is that when you are unhappy with your breasts, your options are limited to what you believe is available, such as poorly fitting and unflattering undergarments and/or padded and underwire brassieres. Unfortunately, the myths about breast augmentation may be preventing you from seeking professional intervention. Breasts that are misshapen, uneven, too large, too small, or surgically removed no longer have to be enhanced or hidden by ineffective methods. If you are caught between the reality of breasts that make you unhappy and the myths surrounding treatments, our plastic surgery experts will put your mind at ease and put you right in the center of looking and feeling your best.

Myth: Breast Augmentation Only Makes the Breasts Bigger

Despite the comedy about big boob jobs, breast augmentation is not just about the enlargement of breasts; it is about health and beauty. Breast augmentation involves options and strategies that optimize the shape, size, and fullness of the breasts. Current technology includes implants made of natural-looking materials implanted in such a way as to sculpt and shape the positive aspects of the breasts.

Myth: It’s a Frivolous Procedure

Breast augmentation is not just about cosmetic intervention to improve appearance; it includes reconstructive surgery to restore and maintain breast health. Breast augmentation surgery is available for almost every woman and situation, including:

• For breasts that are asymmetrical
• For breasts that are too small or too large
• To restore breasts after surgery
• To restore size and shape after weight loss, pregnancy or breastfeeding
• To restore breasts that have been injured

If you have come to believe that breast augmentation is an unnecessary elective procedure, consider this; if you had a deformity or some other negative aspect that made you unhappy or unhealthy, would you not consider looking into interventions to improve the condition?

Myth: Breast Augmentation Can Be Performed By Any Cosmetic Professional

One reason why breast augmentation is criticized in social media is that people mistake other cosmetic professionals for plastic surgeons. Only plastic surgeons are board-certified and have completed extensive specialized training. Plastic surgeons focus on repair, reconstruction and the enhancement of appearance; they have the experience, as well as the innate sense of aesthetic quality.
