Breast augmentation is a popular cosmetic surgery that enhances the size and shape of a woman's breasts. Ideal candidates for this plastic surgery procedure are women who are in good overall health and have realistic expectations about the outcomes. If you are unhappy with the size or symmetry of your breasts or if pregnancy or weight loss has altered the appearance of your breasts, breast augmentation may be right for you. A good candidate should also have fully developed breasts, as breast augmentation is not recommended for individuals still experiencing significant breast growth.

It's important for potential candidates to discuss their goals and concerns with a board-certified plastic surgeon. During your consultation, the surgeon will evaluate your medical history, assess your breast anatomy, and help determine the appropriate implant size and type for your body. Women who have a strong desire to improve their appearance, restore breast volume, or achieve more proportional body contours are typically great candidates for breast augmentation surgery.
