Benefits of Breast Augmentation Surgery
You have your own personal reasons for scheduling a breast augmentation consultation with Dr. Ross Blagg, Dr. Lauren Crawford, Dr. Mahlon Kerr, or one of our other experienced board-certified plastic surgeons. For many women, these reasons often include:
- Increasing the size of naturally small breasts
- Restoring breast volume that was lost after having a baby or losing weight
- Balancing the size of uneven breasts
- Enhancing femininity and self-esteem
Augmentation With the Keller Funnel™
Our surgeons at Synergy Plastic Surgery are Keller Funnel certified. This FDA-approved device helps our surgeons insert silicone breast implants in the safest way using very small incisions. With the Keller Funnel, the implant is kept completely sterile, minimizing the chance of infection. This unique device allows for precise implant placement through much smaller incisions. It also minimizes your time in the operating room.
Your Personalized Breast Augmentation
Your breast augmentation consultation at Synergy will be an exciting, informative, unhurried meeting with one of our breast augmentation specialists. Dr. Aisha White, Dr. Ankur Mehta, and our other plastic surgeons are known for their friendly and approachable personalities that put you at ease so you can openly discuss your aesthetic goals and ask questions. During this appointment, your surgeon will:
- Talk with you about your concerns and cosmetic goals.
- Perform a physical exam and carefully explain how they use this information to create a customized treatment plan that accounts for these physical details.
- Review your breast implant options and recommend the best combination for your body and cosmetic goals.
- Explain what happens during the surgery and help you understand your choices.
- Help you develop realistic expectations about your results (what is possible and what’s not).

The Synergy Difference
- Our doctors perform rapid recovery breast augmentation in Austin, Texas. Patients typically return to work in only a few days.
- Our doctors use the Keller Funnel™ to minimize implant damage and incision length, and to prevent the implant from touching your skin or nipple during placement.
- We offer breast implant sizing in our office using the Mentor® Volume Sizing System to help you visualize what breast implant size will look best on your body.
- Dedicated consultation time is typically 45 minutes to 1 hour. You will always meet with a doctor during the visit.
Breast Implant Fill Material
Breast implants can be filled with saline or silicone. Both options are FDA-approved and have their own advantages. The best choice of implant for you depends on your unique needs and personal preference.
Breast Implant Profile
An implant’s profile specifies how much it projects from the chest and generally ranges from low to high.
Breast Implant Size
Breast implants are measured in cubic centimeters (cc), not bra cup size. When recommending an implant size, your surgeon will consider your existing breast volume, frame, desired size, and other factors. Read the following posts to learn more about the dos and don’ts of implant sizing and how to choose the right implant size for you.

Silicone vs. Saline Implants
If you are unsure of which type of implant you should choose, here are some of the differences:
Saline Implants
Saline implants are filled with a sterile saltwater solution and are available for patients 18 and older. Here are some advantages:
- Natural, harmless fill material. In the rare instance of a leak, the saline is harmless and absorbed by the body.
- Require a small incision. They are filled after placement within the breast pocket.
- Less expensive than silicone implants.

Silicone Implants
Silicone implants are approved for patients 22 and older. Highly cohesive silicone implants are sometimes called “gummy bear” implants because they have a consistency similar to the gummy candy. Advantages include:
- Look and feel more natural than saline.
- Do not slosh or ripple like saline.
- In case of a shell defect, the filling remains inside the breast capsule until it is surgically removed.

Breast Augmentation Incision Options
Our surgeons take special care to minimize scarring during breast augmentation surgery. The Keller Funnel enables them to use the smallest possible incisions when inserting the implants. They are experienced in the following techniques:
Inframammary incisions are made along the crease under the breast, where the scar will be concealed by clothing. This incision gives the surgeon unobstructed access to the surgical area.
Periareolar incisions are made along the lower edge of the areola (the dark skin surrounding the nipple). This incision is best suited for women with larger areolas, although it can also benefit women with smaller areolas who are receiving saline implants.
Transaxillary incisions are made in a crease in the armpit. While patients appreciate that this incision leaves the breast completely free of scars, it increases the complexity of the surgery.
Learn more about incisions in this blog post.
What Is the Best Placement for Breast Implants?
Breast implants can be placed either under the chest muscle (submuscular) or over the chest muscle (subglandular). Our surgeons typically use the submuscular placement (under the muscle) for the most natural-looking results, especially for patients without much natural breast tissue. This placement comes with a slightly lower risk of capsular contracture, a rare complication of breast augmentation. Recovery with submuscular placement may involve more discomfort and take slightly longer than subglandular. Learn more in this blog post.
Breast Augmentation vs. Breast Lift in Austin, TX?
One of the first issues our doctors consider when a patient comes in for a breast augmentation consultation is whether a breast lift is needed to complete the breast rejuvenation. Breast augmentation surgery adds volume and may slightly elevate the breasts.
WARNING:

Moderate to significant ptosis (sagging) requires a breast lift to remove excess skin, reshape the breasts, and place them higher on the chest.

Many women combine implants with breast lift surgery, especially after pregnancy and breastfeeding. For more helpful information about determining which breast surgery is right for you, review this blog post.

Can I Combine Breast Enlargement With Other Procedures?
Our surgeons can give you a more comprehensive transformation by combining breast augmentation with other procedures. Popular choices include:
Combining breast and body procedures is often called a Mommy Makeover because it corrects the effects of pregnancy, delivery, and breastfeeding on the breasts and body.

Breast Augmentation FAQ
Can breast augmentation correct asymmetrical breasts?
Absolutely. In fact, breast asymmetry is a common reason patients cite for undergoing the procedure. For these patients, our doctors use implants of different sizes, carefully measuring and evaluating to ensure accurate results.
Do I need to wear a special bra after surgery?
Yes. After your surgery is completed, you will be placed in a soft, supportive surgical bra that you will need to wear at all times (except when showering or bathing) for 4 to 6 weeks.
Can I still breastfeed after getting breast implants?
If you hope to breastfeed in the future, tell your surgeon so they can avoid the milk ducts during surgery. Breastfeeding with implants is safe, as they will not affect the quality of your milk.
How long will it take for my breasts to look natural after breast augmentation?
It generally takes about 2 to 3 months for implants to soften and drop into a more natural-looking position. Most patients are thrilled with the results after 6 weeks, but your appearance will continue to improve. Massaging your implants for at least the first 3 to 6 months after surgery can help settle the implants sooner and keep the breast capsule open and soft.
When can I go braless after breast augmentation surgery?
Wearing a supportive bra is one of the best ways to maintain your results, so reserve going braless for special occasions. Wait at least 6 weeks so your breasts have time to heal.
Will I ever need new breast implants?
Both saline and silicone breast implants are more durable than ever. Still, they are not designed to last forever. Each patient’s situation must be assessed on a case-by-case basis, but implants generally are meant to last 10 to 15 years. If you’re thinking about replacing your implants, you’ll find more information on our breast augmentation revision page.
Do breast implants interfere with mammograms?
Breast implants can make performing and reading mammograms more technically difficult. However, placement of the implant underneath the pectoral muscle may interfere less with mammographic examination. Additionally, breast augmentation surgery is so common that virtually all radiologists are experienced at reading mammograms for patients who have implants.
What’s the best age for breast enhancement surgery?
According to statistics compiled by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, 85% of breast augmentation patients are between ages 20 and 54. This indicates that there isn’t really a “best age” to get breast enhancement surgery.
