What is Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation, also known as breast enlargement surgery or a "boob job," is an outpatient procedure performed to enhance the size and appearance of a woman's breasts. Dr. DePerro uses saline or silicone implants placed above or below the pectoralis muscle to improve breast shape and cleavage. The surgery typically takes about an hour, with patients returning home the same day.
