Breast Implants Enhance Size, Shape, and Projection

But when performed by an experienced cosmetic surgeon, breast augmentation can enhance a patient's entire figure and boost their self-esteem. For more than 20 years, Dr. Michael Devlin has been achieving incredibly natural-looking results through breast augmentation based on the patient's goals and body type.

Candidacy

If you are in good health, don't smoke, and are not breastfeeding or pregnant, breast augmentation can allow you to enhance:

  • Small breasts
  • Asymmetrical breasts
  • Enlongated breasts
  • Flattened breasts

Breast augmentation is also commonly included in mommy makeovers, which are custom combinations of plastic surgery procedures that rejuvenate your figure after childbirth. If your breasts are sagging, but you also wish to enhance their size and shape, Dr. Devlin may recommend combining a breast lift with breast augmentation.

Saline vs. Silicone Comparing Breast Implants

Both saline and silicone implants are available in a wide variety of sizes and shapes, and have distinct advantages that can make them a better fit for some cases than others. Let's have a look at the primary differences between these two options:

Saline Implants

  • Filled with a saline solution
  • Perform well under an ample amount of existing
    breast tissue
  • FDA-approved for patients 18 and over
  • Requires only small incisions because the breast implant can be filled after placement
  • Revision surgery in the event of rupture is simple because the solution is harmlessly absorbed by the body

Silicone Implants

  • Filled with a silicone gel
  • Perform well for women with a small amount of natural breast tissue
  • FDA-approved for patients 22 and over
  • Requires larger incisions because the breast implant must be filled prior to placement
  • Revision surgery in the event of rupture is more difficult due to the viscous gel










 

Dr. Devlin Will Help You  Make the Right Choice

Silicone and saline implants come in many shapes, sizes, and textures. Dr. Devlin will help you select the type of breast implant that will achieve the changes you envision.

Submuscular vs. Subglandular Placement

Breast implant placement can either be submuscular (placed below the pectoral muscle) or subglandular (above the pectoral muscle, but behind the breast tissue). Based on factors such as your body type and the results you hope to achieve, Dr. Devlin can make an expert recommendation on the best placement for you:

Subglandular Placement

Many of our Arkansas patients feel that subglandular placement achieves a more pronounced and voluptuous-looking result. For this reason, it may be a better choice for women with naturally small breasts. 

Submuscular Placement

Placing the implant behind the pectoral muscle is widely considered to provide results that look more natural. Because it involves more tissue disruption than subglandular placement, recovery takes longer. This placement option is less prone to show "rippling" (folds or wrinkles of the implant that are visible through the skin).

Three Types of Placement Techniques

Dr. Devlin can use one of three methods of placing the implant within the breast:

Inframammary

The inframammary technique involves creating an incision in the lower crease where the breast meets the chest. Dr. Devlin will make the smallest incision possible in order to insert the implant either above or below the pectoral muscle. This technique minimizes the risk of losing nipple sensation.

Periareolar

With the periareolar approach, Dr. Devlin will create an incision around the bottom half of the areola for either submuscular or subglandular placement. One distinct advantage of this approach is that the resulting scar blends into the tissue of the nipple, making it virtually unnoticeable once healed. 

TUBA

Dr. Devlin is one of few breast implant surgeons in the country who perform transumbilical breast augmentation (TUBA). This involves creating a tiny incision in the belly button; next, Dr. Devlin inserts the implant above or below the pectoral muscle by guiding it through the incision and under the abdominal skin. 

Breast Augmentation Recovery and Aftercare

Dr. Michael Devlin uses the Rapid Recovery Technique for his breast augmentation patients. Many of Dr. Devlin's breast augmentation patients report that they do not experience significant discomfort, and are able to resume their normal activities quickly. In most cases, women choosing breast augmentation can be back to work within a few days following their breast augmentation. However, strenuous activity should be avoided for at least two weeks so your breasts can heal properly.

After breast augmentation, the scars may appear dark pink and firm for several months. They typically fade and become very light over the course of the first year after surgery, although they will not completely disappear.

lasts over an hour."

Dr. Devlin believes it is important to have a thorough discussion about your goals during your breast augmentation consultation. You and Dr. Devlin will talk about every aspect of this plastic surgery procedure during your consultation in Little Rock, AR, so you can make informed decisions.

Answers to Frequently Asked Questions

Will I lose sensation in my nipples?

Nipple sensation is mostly supplied by the fourth intercostal nerve that runs from the side of the chest to the nipple. This nerve can become irritated during surgery. It is very rare to entirely lose nipple sensation. More commonly, patients become hypersensitive for a few weeks after surgery.

When can I resume exercising after breast augmentation?

We ask that you avoid upper body activities for approximately two weeks. If your implants are placed below the muscle, you may find that when you resume weights, you will not be able to begin where you left off. Once you do resume your workouts, it is important to wear a good sports bra.

Where Is the best place for incisions for breast implants?

If there is any possibility that you will need a breast lift in the future, Dr. Michael Devlin will always recommend placing the incision in the inframammary crease. This is the crease underneath your breast. This will preserve a major blood supply to the nipple. He may recommend the inframammary incision if you have small nipples. Otherwise, the areolar approach (around the nipple) is an excellent choice for those who do not or may not need a breast lift.

How much swelling can I expect with breast augmentation?

There is considerable swelling after the surgery, and your implants will most likely sit high on the chest. Over the next few weeks, this swelling will slowly fade and the implants will settle into their proper positions.

How soon after breast implant surgery can I tan?

Dr. Michael Devlin will ask that you avoid sun exposure (this includes tanning beds) to the incision site for six to 12 months. When the incisions are exposed to sunlight, it can become "hyperpigmented," meaning the scars can become darker or more red. If you do decide to tan, we recommend covering your incisions with bandages to help prevent this from occurring.

How do I know which bra size to purchase?

Your band size will not change after breast implant surgery. However, your cup size will. If your incision is placed in the inframammary crease, Dr. Devlin recommends that you do not wear an underwire bra for the first six weeks. During your consultation, Dr. Devlin will measure you and have you try on our bras. Please remember that different brands of bras will fit differently. It is also important to try the bra on before you purchase it. Try not to get too focused on a bra size. It is more important to find an implant that you like in your clothing and then purchase a bra that fits your new breast size.

Dr. Devlin uses the Rapid Recovery Technique, which can allow patients to return to work just a few days after breast augmentation surgery.
