Having breast augmentation in California is an important decision to make. One of the decisions to make is the type of breast implant to use. Breast implants come in a variety of shapes, surface textures, and sizes. Depending on the desired shape you wish to achieve, you may choose a round or shaped breast implant. Generally, the larger you want your cup size, the larger the breast implant will be used. Breast implants are measured in cubic centimeters.

Your California breast surgeon will evaluate your existing tissue to determine if you have enough to cover the breast implant. If you desire a breast implant size too large for your tissue, the plastic surgeon may warn you that breast implant edges may be apparent or visible post-operatively.

You have obtained names of breast augmentation surgeons, and you have checked their credentials, read testimonials, reviewed before and afters and have narrowed the list, then gathered and evaluated information from each of their offices. Now it is time for the main event your consultation with a plastic surgeon. No matter how great you may think one is, you dont really know if you do not compare! You are cheating yourself if you dont consult with more than one plastic surgeon.

Your best chance for a full consultation is at a time when the plastic surgeon is least likely to be rushed. Many plastic surgeons operate in the morning and see patients in the afternoon. Ask if appointments are available in the morning or any time on a day when the plastic surgeon is not operating. You wont sit in the waiting room as long.

If you make the right choice of plastic surgeon, the rest is easier. The best surgeon should always present you with options and should discuss the trade-offs of each option or set of options, as well as discussing factors that are not controllable and what a breast augmentation wont change about your breasts. Having breast augmentation in California may be right for you!
