Breast Augmentation: Real Surgery for Real Women

According to a recent press release, one of the fastest growing plastic surgery procedures in the Southeast is breast augmentation. Atlanta, GA surgeons at The Swan Center for Plastic Surgery are performing more breast augmentation procedures at their Atlanta practice all the time and say aesthetics and patient safety are their goals. Though breast augmentation is an elective, cosmetic procedure, it is still real surgery requiring real skill to perform correctly.

Before undergoing breast enlargement, one should always make sure the surgeon you are considering is fully skilled in both surgical and cosmetic surgical procedures. Drs Bauer and Conners of the Swan Center in Atlanta are both double board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery. They operate in a State-of-the-Art, fully accredited surgical facility and use only board certified anesthesiologists for their procedures.

Though patient safety is essential in breast augmentation, aesthetics, of course, is the true goal. The surgeon one picks to perform your breast augmentation should demonstrate they can create the look you seek. With the variety of implant options, as well as incision and implant placement options, it is important to discuss the look you want carefully with your surgeon before agreeing to undergo the procedure.

Drs Bauer and Conners of Atlanta's Swan Center offer an extensive online array of before and breast augmentation photos, allowing potential patients to explore the various looks breast augmentation can provide. They also offer complimentary initial consultations to explore ones options more thoroughly. After all, not everyone has the same goals; not every woman wants to look the same.

According to Atlanta plastic surgeon Dr. Bauer, "Its a misconception that cosmetic surgery is all about vanity. Patients come in feeling uncomfortable about some part of their body, and it has a very real effect on their self-esteem and confidence."

When seeking plastic surgery, such as breast augmentation, it is important you choose a surgeon with the skills to perform the procedure well, and the compassion to listen to your goals and help you create a new look you'll feel proud of.
