All About Breast Augmentation
“After 25 years, I know this is a wonderful procedure
to improve a woman’s self-esteem. There is so much more to it than
what size or type of implant; In fact I use every type of implant through
every incision location including the belly button.”
- Dr. Darryl Hodgkinson
In contrast to many surgeons who prefer to use one particular type of implant, Dr. Hodgkinson uses every sort of breast implant as well as a wide range of incisions to insert them. This flexibility is important to meet the patient's desires and obtain the optimal result.
The choice depends upon the patient's shape, the condition of the breast tissue, whether there is droop (ptosis) of the breasts and the overall figure shape. In over 90% of cases, Dr. Hodgkinson is able to use a saline implant. The smooth-walled saline is ideal for the younger patient who has never had an implant, has very little ptosis of the breasts and wants to have a C or C+ brassiere size. |
