If you’ve been thinking about getting breast implants, now is a great time to make a decision. With the holidays here, you may be able to afford the cost of the procedure thanks to a holiday bonus or gift money from your family. You probably also have a more flexible schedule this time of the year, providing you with the time needed to have the procedure and recover. Plus, you can have your new body in time for the New Year!

There are many reasons for having breast augmentation. Some women are unhappy with the way they developed. Others don’t consider the surgery until later in life, after they’ve gone through pregnancy or as the natural aging process takes its toll. If you’re unhappy with the look and shape of your breasts, you’re not alone. Breast augmentation is the most frequently performed cosmetic surgery today.

 

Training and Credentials

As you think about having breast augmentation done, make sure you take the time to find a skilled plastic surgeon who will meet your needs for reconstruction, repair or enhancement. Your plastic surgeon should have completed a reputable plastic surgery residency in an institution accredited by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. After the residency, they should have completed training in a hospital setting.

 

Current Experience and Reputation

Background and training matters, but so does current experience. The plastic surgeon you select should be well-established and have at least several years or more of practice. Ask the surgeon about the clientele they serve, the number of surgeries performed and before-and-after photos from past clients. You can learn a lot about the reputation of the surgeon just by looking online, reading testimonials and verifying credentials.

 

Meeting the Surgeon

Finally, take the time to meet with several surgeons and discuss your options. A surgeon that wants to do more than what’s necessary should raise red flags. As Dr. Berlet from Berlet Plastic Surgery says, “You are here for rejuvenation not alteration.” With the right surgeon, you can achieve a natural, refreshed appearance. Most surgeons offer free consultations where you can meet with them, discuss your goals and make the right decision for your body.
