Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation surgery is done to increase the size of the breasts, increase projection, balance your figure and enhance self-image and self-confidence. This involves the use of saline or silicone gel implants placed above or below the muscle, done as an outpatient procedure. There are many options involved and a consultation is required to discuss them all.
