What Are the Benefits of Breast Augmentation?

Breast augmentation can enhance much more than cup size. It can reshape proportions, add volume lost over time, restore fullness after pregnancy or significant weight loss (including changes associated with GLP-1 medications), and create better balance between the chest and hips.

Many patients describe feeling more confident and even a little sexier in fitted clothing, swimwear, formal attire, or lingerie after surgery.
Common advantages of this procedure include:

Increased overall breast size
Restored fullness after pregnancy or weight loss from GLP-1-related weight changes or other weight loss methods
Correction of asymmetry
Enhanced cleavage and projection
Reconstruction of the breasts

Some women want a proportional enhancement that blends seamlessly with their natural shape. Others desire a fuller, more dramatic contour. Both approaches are valid. Dr. Najera (Dr. Dallas), believes that successful outcomes are those that match the patient’s expectations as closely as possible, and those expectations will be thoroughly discussed during the consultation.

Am I a Candidate for Breast Augmentation?

Breast augmentation may be appropriate for women who are in good overall health and have realistic expectations about surgery. Ideal candidates often include those who feel their breasts are smaller than desired, have lost volume due to pregnancy or weight changes, or notice asymmetry that affects their confidence.

During your consultation, Dr. Najera takes time to understand not only what you want to change, but why. He evaluates your chest wall dimensions, skin quality, tissue thickness, and current breast shape. These details matter because they influence implant selection, surgical approach, and long-term results.

If sagging is present, a breast lift with implants may be recommended, which is a popular procedure that combines breast augmentation and breast lift surgery to enhance volume and give the breasts a firmer feel and a more youthful projection. In these cases, lifting the breast tissue while adding volume can create a more comprehensive transformation.

Above all, candidacy is about safety and clarity. Patients should feel informed, comfortable, and confident before moving forward.

What Are the Breast Implant Options?

Many of today’s breast implants are advanced, durable, and extensively studied. Both saline and silicone implants have a silicone outer shell, but the filler material differs.

Saline implants are filled with sterile saltwater after placement. They require a slightly smaller incision and allow for minor volume adjustments during surgery. If a saline implant ruptures, the body can safely absorb the saline.

Silicone gel implants are pre-filled with cohesive gel designed to mimic the feel of natural breast tissue. Many patients prefer silicone for its softness and shape retention, particularly those with smaller amounts of natural breast tissue. While silicone implant ruptures are considered generally rare within the first three to five years following implantation, periodic imaging may be recommended in certain cases to ensure the implants remain functioning properly.

Beyond filler type, several additional variables influence the final look:

Implant size (measured in cubic centimeters, or “cc’s”)
Profile and projection
Implant width relative to chest dimensions
Placement above or below the chest muscle

This is where experience matters. Implant selection is not about choosing a number—it is about understanding proportion, tissue support, and long-term stability. Some patients request a conservative enhancement; others specifically desire a fuller, more noticeable result. Dr. Najera (Dr. Dallas) works collaboratively with patients to help them achieve their preferred aesthetic.

What Does the Breast Augmentation Procedure Involve?

Breast augmentation is performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia. The surgery typically takes about one to two hours.

An incision is carefully placed either within the inframammary fold (beneath the breast crease) or around the lower edge of the areola. The choice of incision depends on the patient’s anatomy, goals, and overall surgical safety. Through this incision, a pocket is created either beneath the breast tissue or beneath the pectoral muscle—also known as placement “above or below the muscle.”

Once the implant is positioned and symmetry is confirmed, the incisions are closed with meticulous technique to support optimal healing. Scarring from breast augmentation is typically in relatively discreet areas and can often be well-concealed under a bra or a bikini.

Patients usually return home the same day with detailed aftercare instructions. Dr. Najera emphasizes precision and thoughtful surgical planning. Small technical decisions during surgery—pocket creation, implant positioning, and closure technique—play a significant role in both aesthetic outcomes and long-term satisfaction.

“Wonderful experience from the staff all the way to Dr Najera. Couldn’t ask for better. I’m 1 week post op from a breast lift/augumentation. Super impressed with my my incisions and how thin they are. I’m sure in a short time the scars will be almost non existent. Highly skilled in what he does.also super responsive to any questions I had pre and post op. ”

What Can I Expect During Breast Augmentation Recovery?

Recovery is often easier than many patients anticipate, though some soreness and tightness are expected in the first several days. Most patients return to light daily activities within a few days and resume work within one week, depending on job demands. Swelling should gradually subside in the weeks after surgery. Light walking is encouraged early on in the recovery process, while exercise and more strenuous activities are typically resumed after approximately six weeks, based on individual healing.

The implants should settle into their final position over the course of about three months. During this period, shape and softness should also continue to evolve. Follow-up appointments are scheduled to monitor progress and ensure everything is healing properly.

Temporary side effects can include swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort. Dr. Najera and our post-operative team will provide detailed post-operative guidelines designed to help you achieve the smoothest, safest recovery possible.

As with any surgical procedure, there are risks involved with breast augmentation. These include bleeding, infection, implant rupture, asymmetry, or capsular contracture. These risks are discussed thoroughly during the consultation so patients can make informed decisions. Dr. Najera (Dr. Dallas) is extensively trained and experienced with these procedures and works diligently to minimize risks of complications, however rare they may be, and provide patients with excellent care.
