Breast augmentation: augmentation tailored to the individual to produce a natural breast

Article reproduced from Vogue Australia, February 2008

Breast Augmentation has become one of the most popular cosmetic procedures. Each breast augmentation procedure should be individualized to make it a personal, unique experience.

The desired breast size and shape differs widely with each individual.

Some women seek a larger breast, while other simply wish to restore the volume that was lost with breast feeding. The goal of the surgery should be specifically and precisely planned to produce an optimum result for each woman.

Breast Augmentation may also help lift a sagging breast as a result of ageing and child bearing.

Dr Paul Belt and his team will guide you through the decision making process. This includes the decision as to where the incision is made, where the implant is placed and the type of implant. Incision placement can either be made underneath the breast, around the nipple, or in the armpit.

The implants can be placed either underneath the breast tissue itself, or underneath the breast (pectoralis) muscle. The size, shape and profile of the implants are also specifically selected in order to produce the ideal outcome for each individual patient.

Dr Belt aims to achieve natural looking results for patients and helps them achieve their desired goals.

Dr Paul Belt also offers many other surgical procedures and nonsurgical treatments.
