Thinking About Breast Augmentation? Hereās What You Should Know First
Have you ever looked in the mirror and wished your breasts looked fuller, perkier, or more balanced? Youāre not aloneāand youāre definitely not being ātoo picky.ā Every day, women come to us feeling like their breasts just donāt match how they feel inside.

First, Are You a Good Candidate?
Breast enhancement surgery isnāt one-size-fits-all. To be a good candidate, youāll want to make sure:
- Youāre in good physical health.
- You meet the minimum age requirement (22+ for silicone implants).
- You understand the risks, the recovery, and have realistic expectations.
- Youāre readyāfinancially and emotionallyāfor the process.
Letās Talk About Options: Implants vs. Fat Grafting
There are two main ways to enhance the breasts: implants and fat transfer.
Fat Transfer
This method uses your own fatāusually taken from areas like your stomach or thighsāto add volume to the breasts. Itās best if youāre looking for a moderate increase (around one cup size) and want a more natural, subtle result.

Breast ImplantsThese involve placing a saline or silicone implant either under or over the chest muscle. Silicone feels more like natural tissue and is often preferred if you donāt have much breast tissue to begin with. Decisions youāll make with your surgeon include:

Real Patient Story: āI Didnāt Think I Needed a LiftāUntil I Saw My Resultsā
One of our patients, Tia, came in thinking she only needed implants. She had volume loss after breastfeeding but thought āadding sizeā would fix everything. During her consult, Dr. Curves explained that her nipples were slightly lowāmeaning a breast lift would give her a much better shape.
She ended up having both a breast augmentation and a lift, and now? Sheās confident, proportional, and thrilled with the result. Her only regret? āI wish Iād done this years ago.ā
What About Breast Lifts?A breast lift raises sagging breasts and repositions the nipples if theyāve started to drop. Sometimes a lift is all you need; other times, itās paired with an implant or fat grafting for shape and fullness. Types of lifts range from minimal scarring (crescent or peri-areolar) to more extensive lifting (lollipop or anchor lifts), depending on how much your breasts have drooped. Remember: itās a trade-off. Weāre exchanging looseness for perkinessāand yes, that may mean scars, but also a shape youāll feel proud of, even without a bra. |

Common Misconceptions

Implants donāt last forever Trueāthey typically last 10ā15 years |
Bigger is always better Not necessarily. Overly large implants can cause back pain, rippling, and sagging over time. |
Fat transfer is risk-free Ā Itās safe, but like any procedure, it has risks, like irregularities or fat not surviving. |
What About Recovery?
