What Is Breast Augmentation?

Breast augmentation is one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries in the United States. As the name suggests, breast augmentation is a surgical procedure that enhances the size and shape of your breasts to make them look larger, more proportional, or more curvaceous. The procedure usually involves inserting a saline or silicone implant into the breast pocket via small incisions. Breast augmentation is suitable for women who want to increase their cup size or reverse the effects of age, weight fluctuations, pregnancy, and breastfeeding. Accents Cosmetic Surgery provides the best breast augmentation in Michigan using high-quality saline and silicone implants.

Both Dr. Berkowitz and Maria were terrific and I really enjoyed discussing an FUE procedure with them. They were open and honest about my level of hair loss, and were realistic and clear about what was possible to achieve. They weren't pushy and left the decision entirely within my hands on whether to proceed. I ultimately didn't go through with the procedure as I felt that what was achievable wasn't worth the cost. I would very much recommend their office and staff to anyone interested in FUE.

Kalye is the best!!! I was scheduled with her to do some injections into my scalp for hair loss and she couldn’t have been more kind, informative and really made me feel taken care of as a patient and a client. She went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and understood the process - she even inconvenienced her own schedule in order to accommodate mine and ensure I received the best results. I have so much more confidence for the journey ahead, knowing I am in such great hands with Kalye.

Dr. Berkowitz and his team have proven to be an excellent cosmetic practice! I had a lower eyelid blepharoplasty procedure in October 2020. Dr Berkowitz took the time to let me know what to expect in every detail. The procedure went smoothly, and I healed rather quickly without any complications. After recovery, the results have been exactly what I was hoping they would be. For anyone considering this surgery, I would highly recommend it. Addressing the aging around the eyes takes years off the overall appearance! You can surely trust that the entire team at Accents Cosmetic Surgery will take amazing care of you through every step of the way.

From making the appointment to actually meeting Dr. Alford, everything was smooth and amazing! I’m surprised I’m the first to even leave a review about how wonderful he is. He listened, modeled patience and made me feel comfortable. He did a breast augmentation on me and when I say I was nervous, that’s an understatement, but he assured me I’d be just fine, and I was. His work is phenomenal and I’d recommend him to anyone! Thank you so much Dr. Alford. I will be sure to update this review according to my healing and future results!!!

What Are the Types of Breast Implants?

The type of breast implants you choose in Michigan will have a huge impact on your results. When having this procedure with Dr. Berkowitz, you have three options: silicone, saline, and gummy bear.

Saline Implants

Saline breast implants are filled with sterile salt water. They’re filled up to the desired volume after insertion into the breast pocket, making them more flexible and versatile. It can be modified or adjusted if you dislike the size. However, saline implants don’t look or feel as natural as silicone implants. They’re also prone to rupturing, in which the implant ripples are visible through the skin’s surface. However, if there’s a rupture, the body absorbs saltwater, so there are no medical risks.

Silicone Implants

Silicone breast implants are filled with silicone gel within a silicone shell. They look and feel like natural breast tissues, resembling the bounce and fullness of actual breasts. Furthermore, there’s no risk of rippling on the skin’s surface because the implant shell doesn’t lose shape even when there’s a rupture. However, that also means you receive no warning if there’s a rupture. Patients with silicone implants need regular breast examinations to ensure the implant isn’t ruptured or leaking.

Gummy Bear Implants

Gummy-bear implants are “form-stable” implants composed of silicone gel within a teardrop-shaped implant. Teardrop implants resemble the natural appearance of breasts — fuller on the bottom and tapered at the top. Furthermore, form-stable breast implants retain their general shape even if there’s a rupture, and there’s no risk of the silicone leaking out into your body. Gummy-bear implants are the most natural-looking implants available. However, if the implant rotates out of place, it might protrude from the skin’s surface.

What to Expect Your Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation surgery is performed in-office and outpatient under local or general anesthesia. The surgeon makes an incision in the armpit, around the areola, or under the breast fold, depending on the treatment plan. The chosen breast implant is placed above the pectoral muscles, between the major and minor pectoral muscles, or behind the chest wall. The incisions are sutured closed, and bandages are wrapped around your breasts. The entire procedure takes 1 to 3 hours, depending on the type of implants used, incision styles, and implant placement options.

Breast Augmentation Recovery

Everyone recovers at their own pace. However, most patients need to take one to two weeks off work and social activities to recover properly from breast augmentation in Michigan. You’ll experience soreness, swelling, redness, bruising, and other side effects for a few weeks, and you’ll have to wear compression garments for several days or weeks. You’ll be asked to avoid strenuous workouts for at least one to two months. The incision marks will get darker before fading away, but the scars may take several months to become imperceptible. Our surgeons make incisions in the most discreet locations to minimize their visibility.

Frequently Asked Questions Breast Augmentation

What is the best type of breast augmentation to get?

You can choose between breast implants or fat transfer augmentation. Implants offer greater volume and more shape options, while fat transfer provides a subtle, natural enhancement using your own tissue.

What’s the difference between fat transfer and implant-based breast augmentation?

Implants come in various sizes, shapes, and textures to significantly increase volume. Fat transfer uses your own purified fat for a more modest enhancement, typically up to one cup size, without using foreign materials.

How long do breast implants last?

Most implants last 10–20 years, though many patients keep them longer without issues. Fat transfer is considered permanent, but weight changes and aging can affect results.

Will I lose nipple sensation after breast augmentation?

Loss of sensation in the nipples can indeed occur as a side effect of receiving breast implants. However, this condition is usually temporary and wears off eventually.

Do breast implants eventually sag?

Over time, implants can sag, particularly heavier ones. However, this usually doesn’t happen for at least 10 years and can often be addressed with a breast lift.

How painful is breast augmentation recovery?

You can expect soreness and tightness for the first 2–3 weeks. Most patients manage discomfort with prescribed medications and return to light activity within a few days.

What BMI do I need for breast augmentation?

Most surgeons recommend a BMI below 30. If your BMI is higher, your surgeon may advise weight loss first to minimize risks and optimize results.

Is there a natural alternative to breast implants?

Yes, fat transfer breast augmentation uses liposuctioned fat from another part of your body to add volume to the breasts. It’s ideal for those seeking a subtle, natural look.

What is the smallest implant size available?

Implants start around 125cc and go up to 1200cc. Most women choose implants between 150–650cc, with every 150–200cc equating to about one cup size.

What happens if I lose weight after getting implants?

Implants maintain their size, but weight loss may affect surrounding tissue and skin tone, potentially leading to sagging. A breast lift can restore shape if needed.

Can I breastfeed after breast augmentation?

Many women can still breastfeed, especially when incisions are placed under the breast fold. Incisions around the areola may slightly increase the risk to milk ducts, so be sure to discuss your plans with your surgeon.

What’s the difference between subglandular and submuscular placement?

Subglandular placement (above the muscle) can offer a shorter recovery. Submuscular placement (beneath the muscle) typically looks more natural and reduces the risk of rippling.

How can I ensure my implants look natural?

The key is selecting the right implant size, shape, and placement for your body. At Accents, Dr. Berkowitz will evaluate your frame and goals to create a personalized plan that looks balanced and beautiful.
