Breast Augmentation*: Case 7
Description
This 22-year-old patient traveled to us from Sacramento to achieve a more proportionate and fuller physique. Her petite stature, at 5'2" and 105 pounds, with an initial very modest A cup. Electing to use Mentor Smooth Round Moderate Profile saline implants of 425cc, Dr. Murphy was able to give her a fuller D cup. Placement of 435cc implants beneath the muscle through an infra-areolar incision, subtly amplified her beauty while minimizing the visibility of any surgical scars. Three months after surgery, she has a perfectly balanced figure with a refined "figure 8 shape" that complements her petite frame. Over time, the infra-areolar scars are expected to blend more naturally with her skin tone.
