Breast Augmentation Columbia, MD | Dr. Barry J. Cohen

Understanding Breast Augmentation Procedures

Breast augmentation is the second most commonly performed cosmetic surgical procedure in the United States. This transformative surgery offers women an opportunity to enhance their breast appearance and improve body proportionality.

Common Reasons for Breast Augmentation

• Enlarging breasts to create better body proportions
• Reshaping breasts affected by breastfeeding
• Balancing breasts with different sizes or shapes

Surgical Procedure Details

Dr. Barry J. Cohen performs breast augmentation in an outpatient facility under general anesthesia. The procedure involves creating a small incision under the breast or around the areola, then carefully inserting the implant beneath breast tissue and underlying muscle.

Incision Techniques

• Inframammary: Incision at the breast crease
• Periareolar: Incision around the areola
• Transabdominal: Implant inserted through tummy tuck incision

Recovery and Expectations

Following breast augmentation, patients require assistance for the initial days. Patients will wear surgical bandages and a supportive bra. Swelling is normal, and implants will naturally settle into position over time.

Candidate Considerations

Ideal candidates are women seeking breast size enhancement who are in good physical health and maintain realistic expectations. Dr. Cohen conducts a comprehensive medical consultation to determine individual surgical suitability.

Cost Considerations

Breast augmentation costs vary based on implant type, surgical technique, and individual patient needs. Dr. Cohen provides personalized surgical plans with transparent pricing during consultation.
