Is Breast Augmentation for you?

Lisa — Tue, 20 Dec 2011 19:50:04 +0000

Breast augmentation is not only a medical decision, it is a personal one. The perception we have of ourselves defines who we are and how we introduce ourselves to the world.

Not every woman may feel the need for breast augmentation, but for many women it has provided them with a great deal of personal satisfaction, confidence and sense of well-being.

Meet with Dr. Niessen to see if breast augmentation is right for you.

Different Types of Saline Breast Implants

There are two different types of saline breast implants.

Saline-filled breast implants are filled with a saltwater solution similar to the fluid that makes up most of the human body. Each breast implant has a self-sealing valve used to fill the device during your breast augmentation surgery.

Dr. Niessen offers a variety of textures, sizes and shapes to provide you the greatest flexibility toward achieving breast enhancement goals. There are two types of Saline-Filled Breast Implants to choose from when you are considering breast augmentation: Round and Contour or teardrop shape.

Meet with Dr. Niessen to discuss which breast implant would be best for you.

Do you need a Breast Lift?

A breast lift, also known as mastopexy, is a surgery performed on the breasts to lift and reshape breasts that sag. Factors such as nursing, pregnancy and gravity over time, change the appearance of the breasts. As women age, the elasticity of the skin becomes more loose and saggy. Women will lose that firmness and shape they once had. The small scars that are left behind by mastopexy can easily be covered by a bathing suit or bra.

Speak with Dr. Niessen and see if a breast lift is right for you.

Injection lipolysis offers a new, safe and non invasive treatment for fat deposits all over the body. It can be used to address problem localized fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise. It is especially attractive to patients who are reluctant to have liposuction.

Do you need a Tummy Tuck?

Abdominoplasty, also known as a “tummy tuck”, is a procedure to remove excess skin and fat from the abdomen, and to tighten the muscles of the abdominal wall. You may benefit from an abdominoplasty done in conjunction with liposuction to remove fat deposits from the hips for a better and more pleasing body contour.

Placement of Implants

Lisa — Thu, 26 May 2011 16:01:07 +0000

During breast augmentation, implants will either be placed under the chest wall (submuscular) or on top of the muscle and under the breast gland (subglandular).

Submuscular placement may provide you with youthful-looking breasts for a longer time, may reduce the chances of your implants being felt through your skin, and it may help reduce the chance of scar tissue hardening around your implants (capsular contracture). It will also make it easier to image your breast during a mammogram.

Meet with Dr. Niessen to discuss which placement would be best for you.

Tanning after Breast Augmentation

Can I go to the tanning salon or sunbathe if I have implants?
Tanning at salons or sun bathing will not hurt your breast implant, but it may make your scars unfavourable. You should cover your scars with sunscreen, should you choose to tan, until your scars have faded.

Are you ready for your bathing suit?
