Breast Augmentation offered in Cleveland, OH

Enhance your body’s contours and get the figure that you’ve been longing for.

Here at the Cleveland Plastic Surgery Institute, our team is highly trained in breast surgery and has many years of experience. For this procedure, we use breast implants or fat cells from other areas of your body to increase the size of your breasts.

You may undergo breast augmentation surgery as a stand-alone procedure or as part of a mommy makeover. If you have enough breast volume but desire less sagging, a breast lift could be the more appropriate procedure. Contact our office to find the best option for you.

In order to determine if you’d be a good candidate for breast augmentation at the Cleveland Plastic Surgery Institute, one of our providers will review your medical history and treatment preferences. They will also examine your breasts before creating a breast augmentation procedure suited to your unique needs and cosmetic goals.

If you receive breast implants, you’ll get to pick the specific size and shape of your future breasts. Saline and silicone implants are two popular options we offer. The ideal breast implant option depends on your personal goals, age, cost, and input.

You can even “test drive” your new look now thanks to the Dazzylle implant sizing system, developed by Dr. Leedy, that can mimic the volume, weight, and feel of actual breast implants. From the comfort of your own home, experiment with different volumes in the range that you’re considering in order to find out what size is best for you. When it comes to breast augmentation, Dr. Leedy knows how important it is for you to make an educated decision.

Our institute also offers breast augmentation with fat transfer; using liposuction, fat is removed from a different area of your body and transferred to the breasts. A surgeon may use VECTRA 3D modeling; a technology that allows you to essentially “try on” and test your results before undergoing surgery. This can produce highly personalized, outstanding results.

When getting ready for your procedure, be sure to follow our pre-op instructions. You will also need a medical exam before surgery, including blood tests, a mammogram, and other diagnostic procedures.

Your specialist could ask you to stop taking specific medications and quit smoking. You should avoid food and drink the morning of the procedure and you’ll be expected to arrange for someone to drive you home after surgery.

Before surgery, you’ll receive general anesthesia to make you fall asleep and avoid discomfort.

During the procedure, our surgeon may use liposuction to remove excess fat cells from other areas of your body before injecting them into your breasts. The surgeon may also make tiny incisions and insert breast implants underneath or over muscle tissues before closing the incisions and taking you to a recovery area.

Note: If you’re undergoing more than one surgery during a mommy makeover, the other procedures will continue as scheduled.

After surgery, be sure to have someone drive you home and stay with you for a few days. You will feel tired due to the pain medications and anesthesia. Get plenty of rest, take medications as directed, and avoid strenuous activities until given the OK.

You may have to wear bandages, compression garments, or a special bra while healing, so be sure to attend follow-up visits with the Cleveland Plastic Surgery Institute team.

As treated tissues heal and the swelling subsides, you’ll be able to enjoy your new body contours and rounder, fuller breasts, beginning a new chapter of your life.
