BREAST AUGMENTATION

 

Breast augmentation, breast enhancement, breast enlargement or simply breast implants all are terms used to describe the type of plastic surgery process desired by a woman seeking to enhance her appearances with more symmetrical or fuller breasts.  

Whether age, pregnancy, weight loss or other circumstances have resulted in the loss of breast volume and shape, breast augmentation performed by Dr. Diana Ghosh in San Diego can provide you with or renew the feminine figure that you desire.
             
Planning for Your Breast Augmentation (Implants)

In your initial consultation Dr. Diana Breister Ghosh will evaluate your health and explain which surgical techniques are most appropriate for you.  Her analysis will be based on the condition of your breasts, musculature, body frame and tone of your skin.

If you have sagging breasts, a breast lift may also be recommended in order to maintain the most natural results as well as provide or restore a sense of shapely harmony and balance.
