A few questions you might have concerning breast augmentation:

Breast augmentation surgery has become a common form of plastic surgery. Most women choose to enhance their breasts because they wanted to look better, without or in clothes; because they wanted to feel better about themselves, or more confident, or less self conscious. A very high percentage-94% of respondents to a recent industry survey of 5,000 women-would recommend the procedure to friends or family members.

Many who are considering surgery have natural questions about the procedure. Answers to some of these questions will help the patient to choose their surgeon or identify a hospital. A patient will choose a surgeon on the basis of experience, reputation, and successes; for example, a patient may prefer a doctor who is affiliated with the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery, industry's professional association. A patient may consider the status of a hospital's Joint Commission on Accreditation of International Standards or recognition from the US National Health Services, to be an important part of their decision.

Professional association research has identified the typical patient seeking a breast enlargement to be a 34-year old woman with two children. Specialists in plastic surgery consult with patients to specify procedures so that patients choose, with the benefit of their doctors' counsel, between silicone gel and saline breast implants. Typically, a plastic surgeon will inform a patient that they will spend a few days in the hospital to be followed by a little over a week's recuperation.
