Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation, also known as augmentation mammoplasty, is a highly popular cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the size, shape, and fullness of the breasts. Dr. Gronet performs this outpatient surgery using advanced, minimally invasive techniques to insert FDA-approved breast implants beneath the breast tissue or chest muscle. This procedure can beautifully restore volume lost due to pregnancy, weight loss, or aging, improve body proportions, correct subtle asymmetries, and boost self-confidence.
Whether you're seeking a subtle enhancement or a more dramatic transformation, breast augmentation with Dr. Gronet blends artistry and precision to achieve natural-looking results tailored to your unique anatomy and goals.
What Is Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation involves placing silicone implants to increase breast volume and improve contour. It can also incorporate fat grafting for added natural refinement in select cases. The procedure is ideal for women who desire fuller breasts, restoration after life changes like childbirth, or balanced symmetry.
Dr. Gronet specializes in personalized approaches, considering factors such as your skin elasticity, chest width, and lifestyle to deliver outcomes that look and feel authentic.
Choosing the Right Breast Implant for You
During your comprehensive consultation, Dr. Gronet will guide you through implant options to find the perfect fit:
Silicone Gel Implants: The most popular choice today, known for their natural feel, durability, and lower rupture rates. Cohesive "gummy bear" options maintain shape even if the shell is compromised.
Saline Implants: Filled with sterile saltwater, offering a firmer feel and visible deflation if a leak occurs for easy detection.
Implants come in many shapes and sizes. Dr. Gronet uses precise measurements and advanced planning to select the ideal size (measured in cubic centimeters, or cc), profile, and type based on your body frame and desired outcome. Modern silicone implants are among the most rigorously tested medical devices available.
24 Hour Breast Augmentation
Dr. Gronet employs innovative recovery techniques to minimize tissue trauma, reduce discomfort, and accelerate healing. Patients typically experience only mild soreness—similar to post-workout tenderness—managed with over-the-counter ibuprofen rather than narcotics.
Most patients return to normal activities within 24 hours, including showering, dressing, running errands, raising arms, and even light social outings. This approach allows you to resume driving the next day, with bruising and swelling subsiding over 1-2 weeks. Full results emerge in 3-6 months as implants settle naturally.
Are You a Candidate for Breast Augmentation?
Ideal candidates are women in good health who wish to:
Enhance naturally small breasts
Restore volume and shape after pregnancy or weight loss
Achieve better body balance or correct minor asymmetries
Breast augmentation does not correct significant sagging (which may require a combined lift). Dr. Gronet's thorough consultation includes a physical exam and open discussion to ensure this procedure aligns with your expectations.
