Studies show that one third of all women are dissatisfied with the appearance of their natural breasts.
Can a breast augmentation change this? After a breast augmentation, over 90% of women are satisfied with the appearance of their breasts.
Remarkably, over 90% of women report an improvement in self esteem after breast augmentation. No other cosmetic surgical procedure can match breast augmentation for patient satisfaction. In our survey, the average result rating was 9.3 out of 10 on a scale of 1 to 10 and the median rating was 10, meaning that over half of patients scored their result a perfect 10 (!). Breast augmentation with implants is arguably the most important advance in the history of cosmetic plastic surgery. Not surprisingly, over two million American women have had breast implants. It is also one of the most satisfying procedures for both the patient and surgeon, in its almost magical ability to transform human shape. Gratification is almost immediate. It is an operation that reliably meets expectations and exceeds them in almost half of patients. While rejuvenation of the face and body faces practical limitations, even older women can enjoy youthful looking breasts with the right combination of implants and lifts. No wonder this is a favorite procedure for cosmetic surgeons.
