Types of breast implants

Saline breast implants

Saline breast implants are filled with sterile salt water, typically at the time of surgery. These implants offer a firmer feel and are a popular choice for those seeking a straightforward, adjustable option. In case of a rupture, the saline is safely absorbed by the body. However, they may be more prone to visible rippling under the skin compared to other types used for breast enlargement in Atlanta.

Silicone breast implants

Silicone breast implants are pre-filled with a cohesive silicone gel that mimics the natural feel of breast tissue. These implants are favored for their soft, natural texture and ability to maintain shape. They provide a more natural appearance, especially for women with less breast tissue, and are less likely to ripple compared to saline implants.

Gummy bear implants

Gummy bear implants, also known as form-stable or highly cohesive silicone gel implants, maintain their shape even when cut in half. Their teardrop shape closely resembles the natural contours of the breast, offering a gentle slope with a fuller projection at the bottom. Gummy bear implants are ideal for patients seeking a natural look with long-lasting results.

Benefits of breast augmentation:

  • Enhanced breast volume and shape
  • Improved symmetry and proportion
  • Restored or increased fullness after pregnancy or weight loss
  • Enhanced self-esteem and body confidence
  • Natural-looking and feeling results with top-notch implant options
  • Customized solutions to meet individual aesthetic goals
  • Reconstructive benefits for post-mastectomy or injury
  • Minimal recovery time, with most patients returning to daily activities quickly
  • Variety of implant types and techniques to suit personal preferences

Your breast augmentation experience

Consultation

Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Colgrove. During this initial meeting, he will discuss your goals and preferences, evaluate your body type, and help you choose the best type, size, and placement of implants. A computer simulation of the potential results will be demonstrated. Dr. Colgrove will also explain the procedure, risks, and what to expect, ensuring you feel confident about your decision.

Surgery

The breast augmentation surgery is performed under general anesthesia at Vinings Surgery Center. Dr. Colgrove will carefully place the implants through the chosen incision—periareolar, inframammary, or transaxillary—to achieve the desired look. The procedure typically takes up to 2 hours, and you’ll be closely monitored throughout to ensure a smooth and successful surgery.

Recovery

You may experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which is normal. You’ll need to take at least a few days off work and avoid exercise for about three weeks. Pain and swelling usually subside within a week, but you might experience some temporary changes in nipple sensitivity. Dr. Colgrove will provide detailed post-operative care instructions to aid your recovery.

Results

You can expect to see initial results from your breast enlargement in Atlanta shortly after surgery, with more refined results becoming apparent over the following months. The full results and final breast shape typically take about 6 to 12 months to finalize as swelling diminishes and your body adjusts to the implants. Dr. Colgrove will schedule follow-ups to monitor your progress and ensure you are satisfied.
