What Is Breast Augmentation?

Breast augmentation is a highly sought-after plastic surgery procedure designed to enhance the size, shape, and overall appearance of the breasts. This can be achieved by the transfer of fat, or more commonly with breast implants. As one of the most popular plastic surgery procedures for women, it offers transformative results that can boost confidence and achieve your aesthetic goals.

Benefits of Breast Augmentation

Enhances Breast Volume​

If you lack volume, a breast augmentation will allow you to enjoy a fuller and more proportionate look. Breast implants will increase volume which will result in a more aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Improves Breast Shape and Profile​

Implants will significantly enhance your shape and profile. If you have asymmetrical breasts, a breast augmentation can correct the imbalance through the use of breast implants. The specific implant size and implant placement will help create symmetry.

Corrects Sagging

If you suffer from drooping or sagging breasts due to weight loss, aging, or loss of volume after pregnancy, a lift procedure combined with a breast augmentation will restore firmness and rejuvenate the breasts. 

Improves Self-Confidence

If the size of your breasts is causing you to have low self-confidence or self-esteem, a breast augmentation can fix both and have you feeling more confident in your body and clothes.

Overall, enhancing your breast size provides one of the most dramatic changes of all cosmetic procedures. Most women experience nothing but a positive impact after going through with a breast augmentation and pursue their aesthetic goals. For patients looking to improve breast shape without implants, a breast lift might be the right choice. Patients who have experienced sagging may consider a breast lift in Beverly Hills

Are You a Candidate for Breast Implants?

If you’re considering getting breast imlants, you may be a great candidate if the following apply:

1. Good Physical and Mental Health: 

Candidates should be in overall good health, free from untreated medical conditions, infections, or serious illnesses. Dr. Tim Neavin evaluates each patient to ensure they’re physically and mentally prepared for surgery.

2. Dissatisfaction with Breast Appearance: 

If you feel unhappy with the size, shape, or symmetry of your breasts and desire a more proportional or enhanced appearance.

3. Realistic Expectations: 

It’s important that candidates understand the procedure’s capabilities and have achievable goals for the results.
Non-Smoker: Smoking can impact healing and outcomes, so patients must stop smoking before and after surgery.

4. Not Pregnant or Breastfeeding: 

While it’s possible to breastfeed with implants, patients should wait until after pregnancy or nursing to undergo the procedure.

5. Post-Cancer Reconstructive Needs: 

If you’ve had breast cancer surgery, breast augmentation can restore volume and confidence.

Types of Breast Implants

Choosing the right type of breast implant for your breast augmentation depends on your goals and individual preferences. Each option has unique benefits and considerations. The most common types of implants are saline, silicone, and gummy bear implants.

Saline Breast Implants

Saline implants are filled with a sterile saltwater solution after being placed in the breast pocket. They are inserted empty and then filled to the desired size, making them easier to adjust during surgery to correct asymmetry. Saline implants are generally more affordable and safe, as the body can absorb the saline solution if the implant ruptures. However, they may feel less natural compared to silicone alternatives.

Silicone Breast Implants

Silicone breast implants are pre-filled with a gel that closely mimics the feel of natural breast tissue, making them a popular choice for a more natural look and feel. While they are considered superior in texture, a rupture requires immediate removal and replacement since the body cannot absorb silicone. Regular checkups are recommended to monitor their integrity.

Gummy Bear Breast Implants

Also known as cohesive gel implants, gummy bear implants are made of a thicker silicone gel that retains its shape even if the outer shell breaks. They are highly durable, less prone to rupture, and maintain their form better than other options. However, their firmer structure may require a slightly larger incision during placement.

What to Expect During Your Breast Augmentation Procedure

If you’re just about to take the next step to pursue a consultation and want to know more about the surgical process, Dr. Neavin has laid out a step-by-step overview of what your day will look like as you prepare for breast augmentation surgery.

Step 1: Pre-Surgery Consultation

As you begin your journey, the very first thing you will do is schedule a consultation with Dr. Tim Neavin. On your first appointment, he will discuss your goals, preferences and any concerns you have about surgery. Dr. Neavin will guide you through your options for implant type, size, and placement, customizing the procedure to achieve your desired results. Pre-surgical instructions, such as avoiding certain medications or stopping smoking, will also be provided.

Step 2: Preparing for Surgery

On the day of your procedure, you’ll arrive at our state-of-the-art Beverly Hills facility. The surgical team will review your surgical plan, and Dr. Neavin will answer any last-minute questions to make sure you comfortable and at ease. You’ll then be prepped for surgery, which includes administering anesthesia to ensure your comfort.

Step 3: The Surgical Procedure

The breast augmentation surgery typically lasts 1 to 2 hours. Here are important items that are discussed and administered during the procedure:

  1. Incision Placement: The incision placement is something that will be discussed prior to surgery. Ultimately, Dr. Neavin will give you his advice about the best incision and insertion to conceal scars. Dr. Neavin will make small, discreet incisions in predetermined areas, such as under the breast crease (inframammary), around the areola (periareolar), or in the armpit (transaxillary). The incision location depends on your anatomy and implant choice.
  2. Creating the Pocket: A pocket is carefully created either under the breast tissue or beneath the chest muscle (submuscular placement) to position the implant securely.
  3. Implant Insertion: The selected implant—saline, silicone, or gummy bear—is placed into the pocket. For saline implants, the implant is inserted empty and filled once in place.
  4. Closing the Incision: The incisions are closed with sutures, surgical tape, or adhesive to minimize scarring.

Dr. Neavin’s meticulous technique ensures precise placement and natural-looking results.

Step 4: Recovery Room Care

After surgery, you’ll be taken to a recovery room, where our team will monitor you as the anesthesia wears off. You’ll be provided with post-operative instructions, including how to care for the incisions, manage discomfort, and recognize signs of complications. A friend or family member should be available to drive you home.

Step 5: Recovery

Week 1 – Initial Healing
Your body is focused on healing this first week. Expect swelling, tightness, and mild discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed medication.

  • Most patients resume light daily activities in 3–5 days.
  • Sleep on your back with your head/chest elevated to minimize swelling.
  • Avoid lifting anything over 10 lbs and keep movements gentle.

Weeks 2–6 – Gradual Return to Activity
Swelling and bruising steadily improve. You’ll notice implants beginning to “settle” into a more natural position.

  • Many patients return to desk work or school within 1–2 weeks.
  • Light walking is encouraged; no vigorous exercise or chest-focused workouts yet.
  • Follow Dr. Neavin’s guidance on massage, bra use, and activity progression.

After 6 Weeks – Full Recovery
Most patients are cleared to resume all activities, including upper-body training, after their 6-week visit.

  • Final breast shape and softness typically appear around 3–6 months.
  • Scars continue to mature and fade over 12–18 months.
  • Attend scheduled follow-ups with Dr. Neavin to ensure healing is on track.

Note: Timelines can vary based on your procedure and healing response. Always follow the personalized instructions provided by Dr. Neavin.

Frequently Asked Questions

Implants and Breastfeeding

In most cases, the placement of the implant does not interfere with breasts milk production or breastfeeding. However, if the incision is made around the areola, there may be a risk of damaging the milk ducts. It is important to discuss any concerns you have about breastfeeding with your surgeon.

How long do implants last?

Implants will not last a lifetime. They may require replacement or removal. The lifespan of the implant can vary depending on placement, type of implant, and also the patient’s physical routine. On average, implants will last between 10-15 years before either of your breasts needing a replacement. Schedule regular follow-up appointments and have the condition of your implants monitored.

Will I Lose Nipple Sensation?

The sensation can be affected but most women do not lose sensation completely. The surgical technique used and the patients anatomy are just some factors which will determine the changes in nipple sensation. 

Is Breast Augmentation Covered by Insurance?

Cosmetic procedures are generally not covered by health insurance. In some cases, women who have undergone a mastectomy might qualify to have coverage. You must speak with your health insurance company prior to moving forward with the procedure.

How is pain managed after surgery?

After breast augmentation, experiencing pain, swelling, and sensitivity in the nipples is considered normal. These symptoms are part of the recovery process following the surgery. To manage discomfort, over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen can be effective. Your doctor might also prescribe specific pain medication. Swelling in the surgical area is expected but should gradually decrease over time, and the scars from the surgery will fade as well.

Does the Procedure Increase Breast Cancer Risk?

Breast augmentation itself does not increase the risk of breast cancer. However, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has identified a possible association between breast implants and anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), a rare cancer of the immune system. This condition, known as breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL), occurs more frequently in individuals with textured breast implants. The risk is considered very low, but it’s a significant concern that requires further research to fully understand. BIA-ALCL is not breast cancer, but a type of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma that can develop in the scar tissue surrounding the implant. Treatment typically involves the surgical removal of the implant and the cancer, and in some cases, chemotherapy and radiation therapy may be necessary. The type of implant fill (saline or silicone) does not appear to affect the risk of developing BIA-ALCL, but implants with textured surfaces have been associated with a higher risk.

Can Breast Augmentation Help Lift Sagging?

While breast implants can add volume and provide a slight lift, they won’t significantly lift breasts that have a considerable amount of sagging. A breast lift can remove excess skin and lift the breast tissue, often in combination with implants to achieve both increased size and a more lifted, youthful position.

Will There Be Noticeable Scars?

Yes, scarring is a natural outcome of breast augmentation surgery. The extent and visibility of the scars depend on the surgical technique used, the location of the incisions, and your body’s healing process. Common incision sites include under the breast fold (inframammary), around the nipple (periareolar), or under the arm (axillary), each leaving its own type of scar. Over time, these scars typically become less noticeable and may fade significantly, but they do not disappear entirely. Proper post-operative care and following your surgeon’s instructions can help minimize scarring.
