FAQ
What is breast augmentation?
Breast augmentation is a cosmetic surgical procedure that uses implants to change the shape of a woman’s breasts. People choose this procedure for several reasons, including:
Restore breast size following weight loss or pregnancy
Improve breast symmetry
Increase breast size
Boost confidence
Balance body proportions
Dr. Sofer discusses with you why you want breast augmentation surgery and what size and shape you hope to achieve so he can make the most suitable recommendations. He specializes in breast augmentation for transgender patients and offers advice, support, and guidance for each stage of the procedure.
What is the Keller Funnel technique for breast augmentation?
Dr. Sofer uses the innovative Keller Funnel technique when using silicone implants. It’s a safe, “no-touch” method of inserting implants, which helps prevent contamination. There are several reasons he prefers this technique for his patients, including:
Smaller incisions
Shorter surgery time
More implant placement options
More precise implant placement
Your safety and well-being are Dr. Sofer’s priorities. He provides as much information as you need to feel comfortable at each stage of the journey.
What are the breast implant options?
Dr. Sofer uses implants to create the breast shape and size. You can choose different types with different materials, and each has benefits. Here’s a closer look at the most popular breast implants in use today.
Saline
Saline implants feature a very safe, sterile saline solution. They’re firm and uniform in shape, with a supple feel.
Silicone
Silicone implants are popular because they feel most like natural breast tissue.
Hybrid
The IDEAL IMPLANT® combines the peace-of-mind of saline with the natural-looking results of silicone.
Gummy
Gummy bear implants are the latest generation of shaped implants. They are a ground-breaking silicone gel that doesn’t leak if the implant ruptures.
Implants also vary by shape and size. You can get round or teardrop-shaped implants. Teardrop-shaped implants are a more natural-looking shape, while round implants are fuller for enhanced cleavage. Implants use a cubic centimeter or CC measurement system rather than a cup size.
How can I enhance the results of breast augmentation?
Dr. Sofer provides honest guidance on what results you can expect from your breast augmentation procedure. In some cases, he may recommend combining surgeries to give you the best overall result. Many women have a breast lift, tummy tuck, or liposuction at the same time as breast augmentation to achieve their desired look.
