Sacramento Breast Augmentation Questions

Request a Consultation Before & After Photos

Even though most women do plenty of research, they usually have many remaining questions about breast augmentation in Sacramento. After all, there are many factors to consider and decisions to make.

When you come in for your consultation, the answers to your outstanding questions should fall right into place. Until then, here are responses to some of the concerns Dr. Kaufman and Dr. Clark address with their patients.

How will I decide what size I should be?

Dr. Kaufman and Dr. Clark are prepared to help you make this all-important decision. There are many things to consider - including your body type, your skin's elasticity and your age - in addition to your desired outcome. The Sacramento plastic surgeons will walk you through these considerations and talk with you about what to expect in the future so you can make an informed choice about size.

Are silicone implants really safe?

U.S. Food and Drug Administration re-approved silicone gel implants in 2006, after many years of intensive study. No link has ever been found between silicone and serious health conditions. In fact, silicone has many uses inside the body including in artificial joints. Read about silicone safety in some of the studies we've collected for you.

Why do I need breast augmentation along with my breast lift?

Some women who consult Dr. Kaufman or Dr. Clark about a breast lift in Sacramento are surprised to hear the plastic surgeons recommend breast implants. The fact is, many women who need a lift also need to add fullness at the top of their breasts. This is often the case with women who have borne and nursed children, and weight loss patients.

Will I be able to breastfeed after I get implants?

Although there's no guarantee, most women are able to breastfeed after breast enlargement surgery.

Is there any way to know if my nipple sensation will be affected?

If your surgical plan calls for incisions around the areolas, your nipple sensation may be affected temporarily. After recovery, most women find their sensation returns completely, although a small percentage notice a permanent change.

Take the Next Step

Dr. Kaufman and Dr. Clark know you will have more questions for them. That's why they recommend you request a consultation and plan to meet with one of them in person. No matter what you ultimately decide, they will enjoy talking with you and helping you make the right choices.
