For many of my patients, breast implants successfully help them feel younger, sexier, more attractive...and more feminine. For others, breast implants correct breast misalignment, breasts that never developed, the loss of breasts after surgery, or a number of other issues. For all of them, however, breast augmentation can be a wonderful turning point in their lives, boosting their self-esteem and enabling them to have a positive body image, sometimes for the first time.         

If you want larger breasts, I recommend breast augmentation surgery with breast implants as a safe, long-term way to get the breast size you’ve always wanted.

In the last few days, I have heard from a few of my patients who read a recent article in The New York Times stating that breast implants made by Allergan that have a textured or slightly roughened surface, rather than a smooth covering, have been linked to a rare form of cancer called breast implant-associated anaplastic large-cell lymphoma and are being taken off the market in Europe. 

There has also been a recent report from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons discussing anaplastic large-cell lymphoma. (To read the report, click here.) Naturally, they are concerned. 

I only use smooth, not textured, breast implants 

To reassure all of my patients with breast implants, as well as those who are considering getting breast implants, I want to state very clearly: 

I have always used ONLY smooth implants for my breast augmentation patients, not the textured ones cited in these two sources. The recent concerns do not involve these types of implants and my breast augmentation patients do NOT need to be concerned about this.

For many women who want larger breasts, or want their breasts' size and shape to match, or have had a mastectomy and are seeking breast reconstruction,  breast augmentation is an effective, highly satisfying solution. In fact, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, breast implant surgery is the top cosmetic surgery performed today.

When I am asked if breast implants are safe, my answer is yes

In over 20 years of performing breast augmentation, I have encountered very few complications. However, I want to make anyone who is considering having breast implants aware of a recent report from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons discussing a rare and highly treatable type of lymphoma that can develop around breast implants, particularly those with textured surfaces. (To read the report, click here.)

For many of my patients, they've just never been satisfied with the size of their breasts. Some feel their breasts are too large. Others think their breasts are too small, and that larger breasts could make them feel sexier and more feminine in bras, bathing suits and figure-hugging tops and dresses. 

One of the joys of being a plastic surgeon is being able to give women the breast size and shape they’ve always wanted. To achieve larger breasts, I recommend breast augmentation with breast implants, a safe, long-term, highly successful way to get the breast size they’re looking for.

From time to time I make short videos where I talk about a certain plastic surgery procedure, and my patients seem to really like them. I describe if you’re a good candidate for that particular surgery, what happens during the procedure, what results to expect, and what the risks and benefits are.  

As well as hearing me talk (rather than being handed a printed brochure), patients like the videos because they get a lot of important information from them. That said, I thought I’d make one about a common breast shaping procedure I perform: a breast lift. You can read what I talk about (here in this blog) or you can watch my short 2-minute video by clicking on the button below.
