Increasing your natural cup size is one reason for breast augmentation that many people are familiar with, but the surgery can also help reduce sagging that naturally occurs due to aging or childbirth, improve the shape or position of your breasts, or reconstruct one or both of your breasts after a mastectomy.<\/p>\n<p>Several <b>types of breast implants <\/b>are available to achieve different end results. A highly qualified cosmetic surgeon such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.noblecosmeticsurgery.com\/about-the-practice\/\">Dr. Patrick Obasi<\/a> <b>in Plano<\/b>, TX can consult with you about your goals and help form the best breast augmentation plan for your specific needs.<\/p>\n<h2>Materials used in implants<\/h2>\n<p>Implants are typically made from either saline or silicone.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Saline implants <\/b>are made of a natural sterile salt water solution and have a silicone shell. They can either be filled during the implant operation or pre-filled. They are a good option for smaller implants and the risks to your health if they leak are diminished since they are made of a solution that is naturally already in your body.<\/li>\n<li><b>Silicone implants <\/b>feel natural and soft. They are made from silicone shells that contain a silicone gel. These are typically a better option for larger implants and tend to feel more natural than saline implants.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In addition to these materials, Dr. Obasi can also sometimes <b>harvest fat from other areas of your body <\/b>to enhance your breast size or change its shape. The best way to determine which implant material is the right choice for you is to schedule a consultation.<\/p>\n<h2>Implant shapes and textures<\/h2>\n<p>Different shapes and textures are available for implants to help you achieve your cosmetic goals.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Gummy bear implants <\/b>are a newer technology that prevents deflation if the silicone shell of your implant ruptures for any reason. They are shaped like teardrops and retain their shape better than other silicone or saline implants.<\/li>\n<li><b>Round implants<\/b> are the more traditional shape of saline and silicone implants. A benefit of round implants is that if they turn or rotate at any point, it will not be noticeable.<\/li>\n<li><b>Smooth implants<\/b> are the most commonly selected texture for breast implants. They move more naturally and have a supple feeling and have less of a chance of rippling around the edges.<\/li>\n<li><b>Textured implants<\/b> are firmer and have a thicker shell. They are designed to adhere to your body\u2019s natural tissues so that they don\u2019t move around in your breast as much.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"call-to-action\">\r\n  <div class=\"title\">CALL OUR OFFICE<\/div>\r\n  <div class=\"call-row-main\">\r\n\r\n        <div class=\"call-row\"><i class=\"fa fa-phone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i> Plano Office<br \/>\r\n      New Patients : <a class=\"hvr-push\" href=\"tel:+12146171672\">214 - 617-1672<\/a><br \/>\r\n      Existing Patients : <a href=\"tel:+12142270668\">214-227-0668<\/a><\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"call-row call-row-last\"><i class=\"fa fa-phone\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i> Desoto Office<br \/>\r\n      New Patients : <a href=\"tel:+12146171682\">214 - 617-1682<\/a><br \/>\r\n      Existing Patients : <a href=\"tel:+12142270668\">214-227-0668<\/a><\/div>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n  <div class=\"appointment-row\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.noblecosmeticsurgery.com\/request-an-appointment\/\">Request an Appointment<\/a><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n<h2>What to expect in a breast augmentation procedure<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-post-image img-responsive lozad\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee; padding: 5px; margin-left: 10px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.noblecosmeticsurgery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/types-of-breast-implants-in-plano1.jpg\" alt=\"Young woman wearing a compressing bra after a breast augmentation surgery\" width=\"350\" height=\"300\" align=\"right\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.noblecosmeticsurgery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/types-of-breast-implants-in-plano1.jpg\" data-loaded=\"true\" \/><\/p>\n<p>After creating a customized plan for your individual goals and body, your augmentation surgery will be scheduled. You may be asked to not take certain medicines before the surgery to prevent the chances of excess bleeding.<\/p>\n<p>The operating room is located right within the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.noblecosmeticsurgery.com\/\">Noble Cosmetic Surgery<\/a> office so that you are familiar with the location and comfortable with your surroundings. To insert the implants, Dr. Obasi will determine the best location to create the incision where it will not easily be detected. He will use a device called a Keller Funnel to place the implants in your breasts, which helps prevent infections and enables the doctor to create small incisions, versus larger incisions that will leave more noticeable scars. The surgery typically takes about one to two hours.<\/p>\n<p>When your surgery is complete, gauze or a specialized bra will be used to support your breasts during the healing process. If needed, a prescription for pain management or to prevent infection will be provided. The team at Noble Cosmetic Surgery offers around-the-clock access to a surgeon after your procedure is complete, and complementary follow-up appointments are offered.<\/p>\n<h2>Breast augmentation at Noble Cosmetic Surgery<\/h2>\n<p>Dr. Patrick Obasi is double board certified, has been recognized as one of \u201cAmerica\u2019s Top Surgeons,\u201d and was selected as one of the 2018 Ten Best Plastic Surgeons in Texas by the American Institute of Plastic Surgeons.
