You may even avoid certain types of clothing just to feel more comfortable. Breast surgery aims to change the size, shape, and position of the breasts.

Will I Have Scars After Getting Breast Enhancement?

Breast enhancement surgery can cause scarring, but the scars are very inconspicuous. The most common locations of the scars are in the natural crease under the breast and in the armpit area. Some procedures require incisions around the areola and down to the breast crease. You should expect the scars to fade during the first year after the surgery, but the scars will not completely disappear.

When Will I See the Results?

You will see results immediately after the breast surgery. Your breasts will be wrapped in a compression garment, and you will have some swelling. Full results can be seen after you are completely healed.

What Are Possible Complications of Breast Enhancement?

Any type of surgery has a risk of complications related to the anesthesia, medications, and changes to the tissues. Breast implants also have some inherent risks. You can reduce the likelihood of developing complications associated with breast enhancement surgery by working only with a qualified, board-certified plastic surgeon like those at Richmond Plastic Surgeons.

How Long Will the Results of Breast Enhancement Last?

Generally speaking, breast surgery produces permanent changes to the breasts. In the case of breast augmentation, the implants may need to be replaced after 10 to 20 years or when you decide the change the size of your breasts.

How Much Does Breast Enhancement Cost in Richmond?

Breast enhancement is not covered by insurance. After your consultation, we provide a detailed cost so that you can review your budget and be prepared to pay for the procedure. We accept several payment options, and financing is available through CareCredit®.
