What exactly is a breast augmentation?
A breast augmentation, also known as augmentation mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure used to increase the size and shape of a woman’s breasts.
This procedure may be performed for reconstructive purposes or for cosmetic reasons. In most cases, an implant is inserted beneath the existing breast tissue and overlying skin to enhance the size and shape of the breast.
Candidates for this type of surgery include women who have lost volume in their breasts due to pregnancy or weight loss, those with asymmetrical breasts or those who simply desire larger breasts.
Modern breast augmentation has been around for decades — it’s considered safe and highly effective, and it’s one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in the world.
"I’m so happy with my boob job. I feel like a totally different person…thank you Dr. Jones!"

Questions & Answers
Have questions about breast augmentations in Utah? We have answers!
1. What is breast augmentation?
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that involves the use of implants to increase the size and shape of a woman’s breasts. Implants can be used to enhance both breast volume and cleavage, or just one.
The type of implant used will depend on what the patient desires and her surgeon's recommendation.
2. What are the benefits of breast augmentation?
The primary benefit of breast augmentation is an improved body image. Most women experience increased self-confidence and feel more attractive after their surgery.
It can also restore lost volume to the breasts due to aging, pregnancy, breastfeeding, or significant weight loss. The procedure can also correct asymmetrical breasts and help even out overall breast shape.
3. What are the risks of breast augmentation?
As with any surgical procedure, there are potential risks associated with breast augmentation. These include bleeding, infection, and adverse reactions to anesthesia. There is also a risk of scarring or changes in sensation in the breasts. It is important that you discuss all of these risks with your doctor before undergoing surgery.
4. How do I know if breast augmentation is right for me?
Breast augmentation isn’t for everyone, and it’s important to make sure the procedure is right for you. You should talk to your doctor about your desired results, any medical conditions you have, and any medications or supplements you are taking.
Make sure to ask questions about what is involved in the procedure and the risks associated with it. Only after careful consideration should you decide whether breast augmentation is right for you.
5. What are the different types of breast implants?
There are two main types of breast implants: saline and silicone. Saline implants are filled with salt water, while silicone implants are filled with a silicone gel. Both types come in different shapes and sizes, so your doctor can help you decide which one will work best for you.
Additionally, some surgeons may offer fat transfer augmentation, where excess fat is surgically removed from elsewhere in the body to be used as an implant. Dr. Jones uses either Mentor and Sientra silicone implants, or Mentor saline implants, depending on the patient’s needs.
6. What implant size should I choose?
The size of the implant that you choose should be based on your desired results and what will look best for your body shape.
Your surgeon can help you decide the right size for you by showing you images of results with different sizes. It’s important to remember that implants are not permanent, so if you feel like your implants are too large or too small, you can always have them adjusted or removed.
7. What implant shape should I choose?
The shape of the implant you choose depends on your desired result. Round implants can give a fuller look to the breasts, while teardrop implants may give a more natural appearance.
You should discuss with your surgeon which shape would be best for you and show them images of what you want your results to look like.
8. What is the difference between silicone and saline implants?
Silicone implants are filled with a soft, silicone gel, while saline implants are filled with salt water. Silicone implants tend to look and feel more natural than saline implants. Ultimately, you should discuss with your doctor which type of implant is best.
9. How long until I see my full results?
The results of breast augmentation are usually visible immediately after the procedure. However, it can take several weeks for your breasts to fully settle into their new shape.
During this time, they may appear slightly swollen, but the swelling should subside in a few weeks. Your full results should be visible within 3-6 months after surgery.
10. Where will my implants be placed?
The location of the implants depends on your desired results. Generally, implants are placed either in front of or behind the chest muscle.
Implants placed in front of the muscle may create a more dramatic look, while those placed behind the muscle may provide a more natural appearance. Your surgeon will discuss with you what placement is best for you.
11. How long does breast augmentation surgery take?
The length of the surgery depends on the type and size of implant you choose, as well as the placement.
Generally speaking, breast augmentation can take anywhere from one to two hours. Your surgeon will be able to give you a more exact timeline when they discuss your procedure with you.
12. What is recovery like after breast augmentation surgery?
The recovery time for breast augmentation surgery varies from patient to patient. Generally, you should expect some bruising and swelling in the weeks following your surgery, as well as soreness in the chest area.
You will need to limit strenuous physical activity while you are recovering, but your doctor can provide more specific instructions on how best to care for yourself.
What is the lifespan of breast implants?
Breast implants typically last 10-20 years, but some may last longer. Regular check-ups are the best way to stay on top of their condition.
How is breast augmentation different from a breast lift?
Breast augmentation is a way to increase the breast size and volume, while a breast lift reshapes and lifts sagging breasts without significantly changing size.
Where are the incisions typically made during the procedure?
Common incision sites include the inframammary fold (under the breast), around the areola, or in the armpit. The location depends on implant type and patient preference.
What other procedures can I get with breast augmentation?
Many choose to undergo breast augmentation with a breast lift, tummy tuck, or liposuction for an overall transformation.
Will I have visible scars after surgery?
Scars are typically minimal and strategically placed in inconspicuous areas. They tend to fade over time.
How long does it take to see the final results?
It can take three to six months for swelling to go down and the implants to settle, revealing the final shape and position.
What will the pain or discomfort be like after surgery?
Mild to moderate pain, swelling, and tightness are common for the first few days. Pain typically decreases within a week and can be managed with prescribed medications.
How long will I need to take off work?
Most patients take about one to two weeks off work, depending on the nature of their job and personal healing process.
What is capsular contracture, and how can it be prevented or treated?
Capsular contracture happens when scar tissue hardens around the implant. Proper surgical technique and following post-operative care can minimize this risk. Severe cases may require corrective surgery.
What should I do if I suspect a problem with my implants?
Contact your surgeon immediately if you notice changes like swelling, pain, or distortion. An imaging test (MRI or ultrasound) can assess the implant’s condition.
Can breast implants affect mammograms or breast cancer screenings?
Yes, implants can obscure mammogram images. Be sure to inform the technician about your implants so they can use specialized techniques to ensure accurate screening.
Can I breastfeed after getting breast implants?
Most women can breastfeed after augmentation, especially if the implants are placed under the muscle. However, certain incision types, like periareolar, may impact milk production.
Will my breast implants feel natural?
Modern silicone implants often feel more natural compared to saline. Implant placement under the muscle also helps create a more natural feel.
Can weight fluctuations affect my breast augmentation results?
Yes, significant weight changes can alter the appearance of augmented breasts, potentially causing sagging or changes in size.
How can I prepare for my consultation?
Prepare a list of questions, discuss your aesthetic goals, and bring photos for reference. Be honest about your medical history and lifestyle to ensure safe and realistic recommendations.
