What Your Breast Augmentation Consult Will Entail

We want you to make an educated assessment about your breast augmentation while we provide specific customization of the surgery for your requirements.  Here is what you can expect for your consultation in Metro Milwaukee:

• Your plastic surgeon will physically examine you and talk about suggestions for incision placement and implant type and size (if applicable). The implants will be placed under the breast tissue or under the muscle, depending on indications, contraindications, and your specific anatomy.
• Based on experience, we will discuss our options from information about your body type.
• Breast augmentation is done using both saline and silicone implants, which we will go over benefits and detriments of each type of device for you. We will talk about the actual surgical procedure in detail. It may be scheduled as a surgical outpatient procedure under general anesthesia administered by an anesthesiologist. However, there may be complications that require extending your stay in the hospital until it is safe for you to go home.
• Your physician will inform you on the risks involved with surgery and general anesthesia. Most patients report only minimal amounts of pain immediately after the surgery because long-acting local anesthetics are used as part of the procedure.
• The recovery period will also be covered. Most people return to work seven days following their procedure.
• Other types of side effect from breast augmentation include bruising, swelling, and tenderness in the affected area. These symptoms may last for up to four weeks after surgery.
