Dr. Llorente specializes in the transaxillary approach to breast augmentation, an innovative technique that involves inserting the implants through a small incision in the armpit. This technique ensures that any scarring is virtually invisible. Your chosen implants are then carefully placed either above or below the chest muscle, depending on your individual needs and goals. The incisions are then closed using meticulous techniques to further minimize the risk of visible scarring.

Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure designed to enhance the size and shape of your breasts. At Epic Plastic Surgery, we offer a range of implant options, including saline, silicone gel, and highly cohesive silicone ("gummy bear") implants. Our goal is to provide you with natural-looking results that complement your body and boost your confidence.
Breast augmentation can address several concerns, including:
Choosing breast augmentation at Epic Plastic Surgery offers numerous benefits:
Ideal candidates for breast augmentation are In good overall health and are at least 18 years old for saline implants or 22 years old for silicone. To promote excellent healing, candidates should be non-smokers or willing to quit before surgery. It’s important to have realistic expectations about the results and be emotionally ready to undergo the surgery and recovery process. Dr. Llorente will assess your individual case during a comprehensive consultation, ensuring breast augmentation is right for you.
Recovery from breast augmentation typically involves 1-2 weeks of reduced activity. Early on, you will need to wear a supportive surgical bra to support the healing tissues. You will gradually return to normal activities under Dr. Llorente's guidance, attending follow-up appointments to monitor your progress. Your recovery progress will be checked at follow-up appointments to ensure optimal healing and results.
You'll notice an immediate change after surgery, but your final results will develop over 3-6 months as swelling subsides and implants settle.
While breast implants are not considered lifetime devices, many women enjoy their results for 10-15 years or more before considering a revision or replacement. Our patients tend to be highly satisfied with their results, reporting enhanced confidence in their appearance and more self-assurance in several areas of life.
Many women can successfully breastfeed after augmentation, especially with our careful surgical techniques. However, there is always a risk that breastfeeding will be impacted by breast augmentation surgery. Discuss any future plans to breastfeed with Dr. Llorente at your consultation to learn more about this impact.
Dr. Llorente offers revision surgeries for size changes and addresses issues like ruptured implants or malpositions.
Breast augmentation focuses on enhancing the volume of the breasts. In some cases, this helps offset the appearance of sagging breasts by providing a fuller, more rounded shape. However, patients with significant sagging may benefit from combining breast augmentation with a breast lift <link> to remove excess skin and elevate the breasts to a more youthful position on the chest wall.
