Breast augmentation in Nashville is the second most popular plastic surgery procedure in the United States. This popularity can be attributed to the effectiveness of the procedure. There is no simpler or more predictable way to enhance the size and shape of your breasts than to use a breast implant. In fact, breast implants are by far the most-studied medical device of all time.
Despite the extensive research and wide use of breast implants, the breast augmentation procedure still carries risk and does sometimes have complications. However, when a well-trained, skilled plastic surgeon chooses appropriately-sized breast implants for a healthy patient who has realistic expectations, the outcome is typically highly satisfactory for both surgeon and patient.
Dr. Hatef is board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, and has extensive experience performing breast surgery to help his patients achieve a great result.
Benefits of a Breast Augmentation
A breast enhancement can positively impact many aspects of your daily life in Nashville. Some of its physical and psychological benefits include:
- Increased breast size and volume
- Enhanced breast symmetry
- More youthful contour with less sagging or drooping
- Reconstruction after undergoing a mastectomy
- Improved self-esteem
- Better clothing fit
Customizing your breast augmentation with implant type, size, and placement can help you achieve your aesthetic and wellness goals.
Breast Augmentation Candidates
When you visit our office in Nashville, Dr. Hatef will help you determine whether breast modification is the best fit for your needs. Typically, ideal candidates for a breast augmentation:
- Are not pregnant or breastfeeding, both of which can change breast shape
- Are bothered by the size, shape, symmetry or volume of their breasts
- Want to restore a more youthful contour after pregnancy, weight loss, or aging
- Have fully developed breasts
- Are in good overall health without conditions that may impair the surgical and healing process
- Have realistic expectations and specific goals for the procedure
If a breast augmentation is not the best fit for you, Dr. Hatef will help you determine whether another of our procedures would be a better option.
Preparing You for Breast Augmentation
There is an overwhelming amount of information to sift through when considering breast augmentation. For that reason, Dr. Hatef will visit with patients twice before surgery: during the initial consultation and again at a 20-30 minute appointment to review everything.
The second visit is a very important step in the educational process, and since you will have already paid for the initial consultation, this visit is at no cost to you. During this time, you and Dr. Hatef will decide what incision, pocket, and implant is right for you. Breast augmentation is tailored to each of our Nashville patients based on their overall health, aesthetic goals, and medical history.
Dr. Hatef has a great deal of experience in:
- Inframammary, periareolar, transaxillary, and transumbilical approaches to breast augmentation
- Placing the implant above and below the muscle
- The entire spectrum of available breast implants – shaped, round, textured, and smooth
Breast augmentation is a big decision, so you and Dr. Hatef will spend the necessary amount of time to get you educated about your options and to come to the best decision for your body. He will explain each surgical approach and the types of breast implants available to help you make an informed decision.
You will also have the opportunity to see before-and-after photos to better understand the results you can expect. Dr. Hatef is available to answer any questions you have about the procedure, your results, and what to expect during recovery. Our entire team is also here to support you during this time and help you take these steps with confidence.
