Ready for a fuller life?

You’re unique, from your breast shape and body structure to where you are in your life and what you want. Shouldn’t your breast implants be too? Now they can be, with Natrelle gummy gel breast implants. You choose the size, shape and “gumminess” of your implant for a breast silhouette that’s unique to you.

Every year at about this point in the calendar in my plastic surgery practice, I notice certain trends that are happening, a shift in the type of body procedures and facial treatments patients are asking for. This year, I’m noticing that both men and women want to look fresher, healthier and more toned, but with a minimum of downtime and recovery.

This list of 2020 plastic surgery trends from Allure sums up what I’m seeing, which I share with you here. To help you achieve a more beautiful face and body, I offer a wide array of surgical and non-surgical procedures which you can learn more about here.

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, more than 300,000 breast augmentations were performed in the U.S. in 2018, making it the most popular cosmetic surgery. In general, most women — including the majority of my patients — are pleased with the fuller, shapelier, sexier silhouette they can achieve with breast implants.

Rethinking your decision

For decades, women have wanted larger, fuller breasts and have chosen breast implants as a safe, effective way to get them. These days, however, that trend is reversing in many cases. Women’s lifestyles are changing, as well as what our current culture considers to be attractive and desirable.

Today, smaller breasts that look more natural and realistic are becoming more popular. For this reason, many women are choosing to have breast revision surgery, either to have their breast implants removed or to replace them with a smaller size. This is just one of several breast procedures I perform in my practice. To learn more, click here.

Do you long to have larger, fuller breasts? Do you wish you looked sexier in bathing suits, bras and lingerie? If so, breast implants are a safe, highly successful way to get the breast size you’ve always wanted. In fact, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, breast augmentation is the top cosmetic surgery performed today. Now, there's a new type of breast implant that gives you both bigger size and peace of mind.

Until now, if you wanted larger breasts, you only had two choices of implants:

1. Silicone implants that would give you natural-looking results but you'd worry about silent rupture.
   
   
2. Saline implants that would give you peace of mind but you'd worry about wrinkling and an unnatural feel.

Now there's a third choice: the structured Ideal implant

Earlier this year, textured breast implants made by the manufacturer Allergan were recalled in the United States and around the world because they have been linked to a rare form of cancer called breast implant-associated anaplastic large-cell lymphoma. (The American Society of Plastic Surgeons has published a report discussing this type of lymphoma which you can read here.)

Allergan is now offering to replace their recalled BIOCELL textured breast implants with Allergan smooth implants at no charge.

For many years, if you wanted larger, fuller breasts, you had two options: implants filled with silicone or implants filled with saline. Today, you have a third choice: the structured Ideal implant, which combines the natural look and feel of silicone gel with the safety and peace of mind of saline. Now you don’t have to choose between a beautiful, natural look and the confidence of knowing your implants will stay intact.

Now there are three types of breast implants

You may have read or heard in the news that the breast implant manufacturer Allergan has recalled its textured breast implants, here in the U.S. and around the world. A July 2019 statement from the FDA explains the recall:

To protect individuals from the increased risk of breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL), associated with Allergan BIOCELL textured breast implants, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requested that Allergan recall its BIOCELL textured breast implants and tissue expanders. Allergan agreed and is removing these products from the global market.

(FYI: BIA-ALCL is not breast cancer. It is a type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, which is cancer of the immune system.)
