Breast Enlargement Still #1
February 21st, 2012
The American Society of Plastic Surgeons released the latest data collected for cosmetic surgery procedures in 2011. ASPS statistics represent procedures performed by ASPS member surgeons like me, who are board certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery. The Top 5 most popular procedures are breast enlargement, nose and eye surgery, liposuction and facelifts. Both breast enlargement and facelifts have shown a 5% uptick in popularity from 2010.
I have found that my practice routinely sees women seeking breast enlargement surgery, especially after they are finished having children. Several of my patients have shared their personal stories on our Nipntuck Blog about restoring their figures following breast-feeding. Over 300,000 women had breast surgery last year, many of them as part of this Mommy makeover. Our documentary about one such patient is entitled Restoring Jennifer is linked here and is also posted in the headings at the top of the page.

Patient Comment: Breast Enlargement

I had breast augmentation done at Bashioum Cosmetic Surgery Center back in July of 2010, after losing 90 pounds. After the weight loss, I ended up with saggy breasts. I was extremely pleased with the surgery and the way my breasts looked right after the procedure. But like many people, I wish I would of gone bigger. I guess at first when they are really swollen, they were huge. I loved that size, but when the swelling went down, I realized that I should have chosen a bigger implant size. Dr. Bashioum has various “sizers†available for patients to try on, but I underestimated how big I really wanted to be. He did EXACTLY what I asked him to do as far as size, but I just didn’t make the right decision on my part.
Dr. Bashioum did an amazing job and that is why I would like to go to him again. This is not uncommon, as other patients have mentioned this phenomenon on the blog. One of Dr. Bashioum’s patients also had difficulty deciding on size. In Melissa’s Blog, she wrote about how she wore different “sizers†for several days, to monitor reaction of others and to better understand what size she wanted to be after surgery.
So now I’m going to set up a consultation to consider changing my current implants for larger ones.
