How to Ensure You Get the Best Breast Augmentation Results
Whatever your reasons for opting for a breast augmentation surgery, you must do your research beforehand to ensure you are making the right choice and to get the best possible results. Here are some of the top dos and don’ts when it comes to breast augmentation surgery:
1. Choose Your Plastic Surgeon Carefully
One of the most important steps in getting the safest results from your surgery is choosing the right plastic surgeon. Your surgeon must have the skill, experience, and aesthetic philosophy that will get you the results you want.
When you are choosing a plastic surgeon, always look for:
- Board certification
- Experience
- Good rapport
- Patient satisfaction

2. Quit Smoking
This tip applies to both before and after your breast augmentation surgery. This is because smoking is a major risk factor for wound healing complications that can result in poor quality scarring.
Here are some things to keep in mind when it comes to smoking and cosmetic surgery:
- You must quit smoking at least four weeks prior to your surgery date
- Nicotine in cigarettes will cause blood vessels to constrict, which increases your risk of surgical complications
- After surgery, stay away from the habit for as long as possible because smoking will only hinder your body’s ability to heal quickly and properly
In the years following your breast augmentation, it’s best for you to quit smoking completely. Not only does the habit increase your risk of developing cancer, it will also cause premature ageing and changes to your skin texture.
3. Always Schedule a Consultation
The first step in getting the best results from your cosmetic surgery is by scheduling a consultation with your plastic surgeon. During this appointment, your surgeon can better understand your concerns, discuss your options, and what kind of results you should expect.
During this appointment, you will discuss your:
- Candidacy
- Medical history and lifestyle
- Aesthetic concerns and goals
- Implant preferences
Pro Tip: Before your consultation, write down a list of questions and concerns you want to discuss with your surgeon. This will ensure you are fully informed on all aspects of the procedure and will give you the peace of mind you require before going into the surgery.
