A New Approach to Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation, also known as augmentation mammoplasty, is an enormously popular plastic surgery procedure. Every year, more than 300,000 women choose to enhance their breast for a number of reasons:
- To achieve a rounder, more attractive look
- To address breast asymmetry
- To reconstruct their breasts after a mastectomy or injury
- To correct a congenital deformity
- To enhance their body contour
- To boost their self-esteem and increase body confidence
In the past, plastic surgeons used to make all the decisions regarding size, shape, and material for their patients. Unfortunately, this led to many women being dissatisfied with their results and wishing they had more control over the breast augmentation process.
At Dr. Patty Miami, we believe that cosmetic procedures should never be one-size-fits-all, and that every aspect of your surgical experience should be guided by your express aesthetic goals and unique physical attributes.
Some of the decisions you and your surgeon will make together during your consultation include:
- The size and shape of the implant
- The feel and texture of the implant
- The incision location (where the scar will be located)
- The implant placement

Your Breast Augmentation Options
There are a variety of implants to choose from in terms of size, shape, and texture. Your cosmetic surgeon at Dr. Patty Miami will discuss the types of implants as well as the incision location and placement prior to your surgery.
Types of Implants
The quality of breast implants has improved dramatically over the past few decades. Today’s implants look and feel more natural than ever. During your consultation, your Dr. Patty Miami cosmetic surgeon will help you decide the right type of implant for you. Your options include:
Saline: A silicone shell filled with sterile saline solution after the shell has been placed in the breast pocket. Benefits include:
- Require smaller incisions for insertion
- Size can be manipulated during surgery to achieve the optimal size and texture
Silicone: A silicone shell filled with soft silicone gel. Benefits include:
- Softer and more natural look and feel
- Less prone to visible wrinkling through the skin
- Less likely to result in postoperative complications, including capsular contracture and downward displacement
Gummy Bear: A teardrop-shaped silicone shell filled with silicone gel. Benefits include:
- Maintain their shape over an extended period of time
- Since the filling is mostly solid as opposed to liquid, there is less risk of leakage
- May create less scar tissue
Incisions
Your board-certified Dr. Patty Miami surgeon will meet with you for a private, in-depth consultation where you will discuss your options for incision location. Your breast surgery’s incisions are the small cuts your surgeon makes on either side of your chest to insert the implants. There are 4 types of incision locations in breast surgery:
Periareolar: along the outer edges of the areolas. Women with larger areolas or that wish smaller, more conservative implants are good candidates for this type of incision.
Inframammary: in the folds beneath the breasts. This technique provides optimal control of implant placement and minimal visible scarring.
Transaxilary: within the armpit. While this type of incision is typically limited to smaller implants, it is a great option for women who want to avoid scarring on the breasts.
Transumbilical: within the navel. The implant shell is inserted through the navel and filled with saline solution once it reaches the breast pocket.

Breast Implant Position
Breast implant surgery can be the key to achieving a sexier, more femenine physique. During your consultation and anatomical evaluation, your surgeon will recommend the optimal implant position to achieve your cosmetic goals and enhance your unique body contour. Implant placement can be:
Subglandular: implants are placed between the chest muscle and the breast tissue area. This technique typically involves a shorter recovery period and is ideal for patients with moderate breast tissue.
Submuscular: implants are positioned underneath the pectoral muscle. Submuscular implants tend to look more natural because the muscles conceal the edges of the implant. This technique is ideal for women with minimal existing breast tissue.
Fat Transfer
A breast augmentation with [fat transfer] or fat grafting is a new surgical procedure that enhances and reshapes your breasts by using your own body fat. Some consider it a more natural alternative to breast implants because it involves increasing your breast size using your body’s own fat instead of synthetic materials. It also has the added benefit of reducing the size of other parts of your body, like your thighs, tummy, or love handles through [liposuction].
In general, patients desiring a large increase in breast volume (more than 2 cup sizes) or that have limited quantities of excess fat may benefit from breast implants rather than fat transfer. Your surgeon at Dr. Patty Miami will help you determine if you are a good candidate for fat transfer breast augmentation.
Recovering from Breast Implant Surgery
Breast augmentation surgery is a fairly simple procedure but like all other surgeries, it requires some down time to allow your body to fully recover. You may experience varying degrees of swelling and pain. Some patients also report moderate pressure and muscle soreness after surgery. This pain is natural and can last a few weeks.
Your surgical team at Dr. Patty Miami will provide you with a personalized aftercare plan with details on how to care for your incisions, as well as instructions on sleeping, bathing, exercising, and bra choices.
Here’s what you can expect after your breast implant surgery in Miami, FL.:
Immediately after
A support compression bra will be placed over your breasts to help reduce swelling and bruising. It’s important to get enough rest the first few days following your procedure and avoid any heavy lifting. Your surgeon will prescribe pain medications to help ease pain and discomfort.
1 Week
A week after your procedure most of the pain and discomfort should have subsided. The majority of patients feel well enough to return to work and resume their usual routine about 7 days after surgery. However, you should still avoid strenuous activity and exercise at this stage of recovery.
2-3 Weeks
By now, most of the swelling and bruising should have faded, so your results will become more apparent. You can begin to ease back into light physical activity, but must continue avoiding heavy chest and upper body exercises.
4-6 Weeks
A month after your procedure you should feel ready to return to your regular activities, including upper body exercise. Keep wearing your support bra and applying your scar treatment regularly to reduce the appearance of scars.
