The Breast Augmentation with Implants and/or Fat Grafting is more commonly referred to as a “Boob Job” for short. This procedure is one of the most popular surgeries performed by Plastic Surgeons around the world today. At Fairbanks Art of Plastic Surgery, our Breast Augmentation with Implants and/or Fat Grafting Procedure is a cosmetic surgery that both enhances the size and appearance of the breasts of a woman who feels she is too small.
WATCH Dr. Fairbanks (who's also a Member of ABC4 & CW30's Talk 365 TV Wellness Team of Experts), give an overview of this procedure.

Our Breast Augmentation Procedure will enlarge the size of the breast, it will not lift the breast and elevate the position of the nipple. If the desire is to reposition the nipples and “put them back where they used to be,” then a Breast Lift or Mastopexy should be considered. Occasionally, an Augmentation-Lift combination will be performed at the same time. However, this increases the risks of the procedure and may not have the desired results. If both a Breast Augmentation and a Breast Lift are desired, then you should discuss your options with Dr. Fairbanks during your Consultation.

The typical candidates for the Breast Augmentation with Implants &/or Fat Grafting Procedure are women that are unhappy with their their breast size or appearance.
Other Factors Include:
Must Be In Good Physical Health & A Non-Smoker
Often women are self-conscious about their breast size or appearance. For them, to be seen in a swimsuit is a “no way” experience. This can affect their self-esteem and all too often, their intimacy. Many women never develop the desired amount of breast tissue. For some, pregnancy may improve this dilemma for a short time. Then, there are those who feel they had what are to be considered “nice breasts” only to become disappointed after they were done nursing. The majority of the women seeking breast augmentation fit into these categories and are good candidates for the procedure. However, only an evaluation and discussion with Dr. Fairbanks will help you understand and know for sure if this is the procedure for you.

Both Options Can include Fat grafting:
1. Silicone Breast Implants: These are the most popular choice by far. Silicone implants are already filled with a highly cohesive gel prior to insertion. They are designed to mimic the look and feel of natural breast tissue and to maintain their shape over time. If the shell of a silicone implant tears, the cohesive gel is designed to remain inside. In the end, silicone implants deliver a relatively natural look and feel if the proportional size is chosen. The FDA approves the use of silicone breast implants for women age 22 or older.
2. Saline Breast Implants: These implants are inserted into the body empty and filled with sterile salt water once inside. If one of these implant shells leaks, the implant will collapse and the saline will be absorbed by the body. The saline breast implant is still chosen over silicone by several women as these implants also provide a relatively natural look and feel if the proportional size is chosen.
Smooth VS Textured:
Overall, Dr. Fairbanks recommends using the smooth, round implants. The smooth shell allows the implant to move more naturally with your existing breast tissue which not only minimizes ruptures and tears it also provides the softest and most natural feel. The smooth round implants also tend to settle faster in the body. This is an advantage because it creates a more natural looking end result. While smooth implants are the most popular choice, certain circumstances may require the use of textured breast implants. Dr. Fairbanks will be able to help you make the best choice for you during the consultation process.
Round VS Teardrop:
Again, Dr. Fairbanks prefers the smooth, round implants because of the fullness and lift they consistently provide patients while still looking and feeling the most natural. Teardrop Implants are textured and are rarely used by Dr. Fairbanks.
Best Placement:
Best Incision Placement: There are three options which include an incision made along the lower margin of the nipple or one in the axilla (arm pit) or inframammary fold (under the breast). Dr. Fairbanks prefers the inframammary incision approach. This entails a small single incision being made under the breast in the breast crease. When implants need to be replaced, this is also the approach. Therefore, he recommends starting there as well.
Best Implant Placement: The implant can be placed directly under the breast tissue for those who already have an adequate amount of tissue to cover the implant. But Dr. Fairbanks preferred placement (and the most commonly practiced) is under the pectoralis muscle.
Final Note On Safety Of Silicone Breast Implants: The FDA has approved silicone breast implants for breast augmentation and states that, “There is no apparent association between silicone gel-filled breast implants and connective tissue disease, breast cancer, or reproductive problems.”

can be Done Alone or with Breast Aug with implants:
Breast Augmentation with Fat Grafting is a Two for One Procedure that combines two of the most popular Cosmetic Plastic Surgeries today – Liposuction and Breast Enlargement. Women often joke about taking fat from their hips and thighs and putting it in their chests. Well, that can happen! Using an advanced surgical process that preserves the cells, fat can be successfully transferred from one part of the body to another, and this Breast Augmentation technique is rapidly growing in popularity!
When done correctly, using one's own living fat for Breast Augmentation results in the most natural look and feel as your own fat becomes a permanent, living part of the breast in the end.
The Fat Grafting technique used with the Breast Augmentation Procedure is also used in conjunction with many other Surgical Procedures to help enhance the cosmetic appearance of the face, lips, hands, feet, hips, and buttocks. Fat grafting is also used in healing wounds and scars.
WATCH Dr. Fairbanks (who's also a Member of ABC4 & CW30's Talk 365 TV Wellness Team of Experts), explain how Fat Grafting works independently or in conjunction with many procedures including Breast Augmentation.
