Breast Augmentation

Breast volume and shape play a key role in overall body proportion and confidence. Naturally small breasts, volume loss after pregnancy or weight changes, or asymmetry between breasts can affect how clothing fits and how a woman feels about her appearance. These concerns are common and vary widely from person to person.

Understanding the Basics

What Is Breast Augmentation?

Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that increases breast size and improves contour using implants or fat transfer. The procedure is suited to each individual’s body type, aesthetic goals, and lifestyle to ensure balanced and natural-looking results.

The surgery focuses on enhancing volume, correcting asymmetry, and improving overall breast proportions while preserving softness and movement.
