If you often wish that your breasts were larger, fuller or
more shapely, breast augmentation surgery may be the right
choice for you. Breast augmentation, also called augmentation
mammaplasty, is a cosmetic procedure that uses implants to
enlarge and shape the breasts. Your new look will bring to you
greater freedom with fashion and may give your self-image a
boost as well. Dr. Duquette performs this surgery in an
outpatient setting although you remain at the Outpatient
Center overnight (23 hours) where you receive care through the
night by a Registered Nurse.
Most people experience temporary discomfort, swelling,
bruising, and a change in nipple sensation. You may return to
work within a few days depending on how well you heal. You may
return to normal physical activities in 3-4 weeks.
