Breast Augmentation from Raleigh to Beverly Hills, Natural Looking Breast Implants are in Demand

Breast Augmentation from Raleigh to Beverly Hills, Natural Looking Breast Implants in Demand. Artificial looking breast implants no longer acceptable by most patients.

(PRWEB) June 4, 2005 -- Breast Augmentation from Raleigh to Beverly Hills, Natural Looking Breast Implants are in Demand. Patients nationwide want natural looking results from all plastic surgery procedures including breast enhancement surgery. Dr. Michael Law, a board certified plastic surgeon has moved his Beverly Hills plastic surgery practice to his hometown of Raleigh, NC. He discusses Natural-Appearing Breast Augmentation: The Importance of Implant Size and Position. The two main factors that determine the appearance of the augmented breast are implant size and implant position. Choice of an implant size that exceeds the proportions of a woman’s body will result in a distinctly unnatural, or ‘done’, appearance. If the goal is to achieve an enhancement of the breast profile that appears natural and consistent with a patient's overall figure, then there truly is a very narrow range of implant sizes that will produce a natural, beautiful appearance. The concept that any woman can “go any size” is absolutely untrue; that is, if a patient seeking breast augmentation desires a result that is in harmony with her body as a whole.

The second critical factor is implant position. The natural, aesthetically-pleasing breast appears soft and supple, has a slight ‘droop’ to it (i.e. it doesn’t look ‘stuck on’ the chest), and is much fuller in its lower than in its upper half. In profile, the upper half should be a nearly straight, gentle slope to the nipple, and below the nipple full and curved going back to the chest wall. If the implant is not placed precisely (or is too large), then this appearance will not be achieved.

A very common error in implant position is placement that is too high on the chest. This results in breasts that have much more volume above the nipple than below. This look appears very artificial and unnatractive. Ideally, the center of a breast implant should be positioned immediately behind the nipple. When implants are placed too high, the upper half of the breast is too full and is convex in profile, a distinctly unnatural appearance.

Another error is the placement of implants too far apart. Ideally, the lateral margin of the breast should project just beyond the lateral margin of the chest wall. This creates the upper half of the ‘hourglass figure’. The medial border of the breast should begin at or just medial to the edge of the sternum. If a pocket is not created appropriately, there will be a gaping space between the breasts that looks quite unnatural.

Not surprisingly, implants can also be positioned too close together. This too can create an unnatural or 'done' appearance.

There should be no visible scars as a result of breast augmentation surgery. In most cases a tiny incision around the areola where there is a transition in color of the nipple skin to breast skin will fade so that it is virtually imperceptible. In very dark skinned women, this scar could be visible, so a small scar in the underarm area or perhaps a small scar under the breast would be ideal.

Dr. Law, a Raleigh native, practiced aesthetic plastic surgery in Beverly Hills until returning hometown of Raleigh to open his solo practice in 2003. He and his wife Kile reside in Raleigh with two-year old son Luke and newborn son Lang. In the two years since he opened his practice, Dr. Law has won numerous local “best of” awards. His busy, North Raleigh, practice is chosen by patients nationwide for beautiful, natural-looking results. Dr. Law, a board certified plastic surgeon, performs all aesthetic surgeries in the hospital where his patients are assured of the highest quality of care. Dr. Law uses the most advanced technologies to provide patient comfort after surgery. Every patient receives the same high level of care and compassion from Dr. Law and his staff. Dr. Law has been featured in national and local media but, he has declined invitations to participate in plastic surgery reality television programs. Dr. Law’s philosophy is that great plastic surgery doesn’t look like surgery, it just looks great.
