Breast Augmentation you can trust
Enhance your shape with expert breast augmentation. Personalized care, natural results, and surgical precision you can trust.
What is Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation, also known as augmentation mammoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to increase the size, shape, and symmetry of the breasts using implants or fat transfer. It’s one of the most requested cosmetic surgeries in the world — and for good reason: it offers powerful, lasting enhancement tailored to your body and your vision of beauty.
At Beauté Plastic Surgery, Dr. Oscar Ramirez specializes in performing natural-looking breast augmentation, using advanced techniques and a personalized approach that prioritizes balance, proportion, and patient safety.
Overview of the Procedure
A tummy tuck involves several key steps:
Incision Placement:
Dr. Ramirez strategically places a horizontal incision low on the abdomen, typically below the bikini line, to minimize visible scarring.Muscle Repair:
If your abdominal muscles have weakened or separated (a condition known as diastasis recti), they are sutured back together, creating a firmer abdominal wall.Excess Skin and Fat Removal:
Loose, sagging skin and stubborn fat deposits are carefully excised to flatten and tighten the abdominal contour.Skin Re-draping:
The remaining skin is pulled taut and repositioned for a smooth, natural appearance. In some cases, the belly button is repositioned for aesthetic balance.
The result is a flatter, tighter, and more youthful abdomen, boosting both physical appearance and self-confidence.
Types of Breast Implants available
At Beauté Plastic Surgery, we offer a curated selection of FDA-approved implants to suit every body type and preference:
Silicone Gel Implants
Soft, cohesive, and known for their natural feel and look. Ideal for patients seeking discreet enhancement.Saline Implants
Filled with sterile salt water after insertion. Offer adjustability and a smaller incision, and are easily detectable if ruptured.Gummy Bear Implants (Form-stable)
Maintain their shape even if the shell breaks. Preferred for patients seeking teardrop-shaped, anatomically contoured breasts.
Dr. Ramirez will help you choose the ideal type based on your desired projection, breast tissue, skin elasticity, and long-term preferences.
Silicone vs. Saline: Which is right for you?
The decision between silicone and saline implants involves several factors. Both options are safe and effective, and Dr. Ramirez’s expertise ensures that whichever implant you choose, the results will be beautifully integrated with your natural body contours.
Who is a good candidate for Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation is one of the most personalized procedures in cosmetic surgery. While it offers remarkable transformations, it’s essential to determine whether it aligns with your anatomy, lifestyle, and expectations.
At Beauté Plastic Surgery, Dr. Oscar Ramirez evaluates each patient individually to ensure the procedure is safe, appropriate, and beneficial for long-term results.
Ideal physical characteristics
You may be a strong candidate for breast augmentation if you:
Are unhappy with the size, shape, or proportion of your breasts
Have lost breast volume due to weight loss, pregnancy, or aging
Have asymmetrical breasts or congenital differences in breast development
Have small or underdeveloped breasts and wish to enhance your curves
Have good skin elasticity and healthy breast tissue
Psychological and lifestyle considerations
Beyond physical attributes, the best candidates also:
Have clear aesthetic goals and realistic expectations about results
Are making the decision for themselves, not due to outside pressure
Are committed to following pre- and post-operative instructions
Are willing to take time off work or physical activities to recover properly
Understand that implants may require monitoring or replacement in the future
Emotional readiness and a healthy body image are just as important as physical factors when considering any aesthetic procedure.
Age, health & expectations
To undergo breast augmentation:
You must be at least 18 years old for saline implants and 22 for silicone implants (per FDA guidelines)
Be in overall good health with no untreated chronic conditions
Not be pregnant or breastfeeding at the time of surgery
Be a non-smoker or willing to quit before and after the procedure to minimize complications
During your consultation, Dr. Ramirez will review your medical history, perform a physical examination, and help you determine if this surgery is the right fit for your goals and lifestyle.
Not sure if you're a good candidate?
Dr. Ramirez offers no-pressure consultations to assess your options honestly and transparently, ensuring you feel empowered and informed every step of the way.
Benefits of Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation is more than just a physical enhancement — it’s a deeply personal decision that can significantly improve your body image, confidence, and lifestyle. At Beauté Plastic Surgery, Dr. Oscar Ramirez focuses on delivering natural, elegant results that not only enhance your figure, but also positively impact your everyday life.
Physical enhancements and proportion
Breast augmentation helps:
Increase breast volume to achieve your ideal size
Improve body balance and silhouette — especially for patients with naturally smaller or asymmetrical breasts
Restore fullness lost due to pregnancy, weight loss, or aging
Create a more proportionate upper and lower body, improving how clothes fit
Patients often report feeling more feminine and curvy, with renewed excitement about their appearance in fitted tops, dresses, and swimwear.
Emotional confidence and Self-Image
The emotional benefits of breast augmentation are equally powerful:
Boosts self-esteem and helps you feel more confident in social and professional settings
Enhances body positivity, leading to improved mental wellness
Restores a sense of control over your body after major life events like childbirth or weight loss
Helps you feel more in tune with your personal identity and femininity
Patients frequently describe their experience as empowering and life-affirming — not just cosmetic.
Correcting asymmetry or volume loss
For patients with uneven breast size, congenital breast irregularities, or significant post-pregnancy deflation, augmentation offers both aesthetic correction and emotional relief.
Dr. Ramirez uses a highly individualized approach to:
Address volume discrepancies
Recreate natural breast shape and contour
Match your proportions with your frame and goals
This level of detail ensures that results are symmetrical, harmonious, and long-lasting.
Whether you’re looking to reclaim your pre-baby body, enhance your natural curves, or feel confident in your own skin, breast augmentation at Beauté Plastic Surgery can help you achieve the transformation you deserve.
Recovery after Breast Augmentation
48 : Hours
Rest, comfort, and monitoring
Immediately after surgery, you’ll wake up in a private recovery suite where our nursing team ensures your comfort. Dr. Ramirez will review the surgery with you, confirm that all went smoothly, and go over your personalized recovery instructions.
During this early window, it’s common to feel tightness in the chest, mild swelling, and a pressure-like sensation — all of which are expected and temporary. You’ll be prescribed medication to control discomfort and, in most cases, you’ll return home the same day with a supportive surgical bra already in place.
What’s most important at this stage is complete rest, limited arm movement, and gentle walking to support circulation.
1 : Weeks
The transition phase
By the end of the first week, many patients feel ready to resume non-physical tasks, such as remote work or light activities at home. However, lifting, exercise, and overhead motions remain restricted.
Dr. Ramirez schedules a follow-up visit during this period to check incision healing, assess implant position, and ensure everything is progressing smoothly. At this point, some patients begin to notice early changes in breast shape, although swelling remains present.
Key milestones by Day 7:
Drain removal (if applicable)
Switch to lighter support garments (as advised)
Gradual return to daily hygiene routines
Ability to move more freely, with care
2-6 : Weeks
Adapting to your new shape
During this stage, the swelling continues to subside, the skin adjusts, and the implants begin to settle into their natural position — a process known as “dropping and fluffing.”
Patients often describe this phase as the moment they begin to connect emotionally with their results, as they can see the transformation take shape more clearly.
Physical activity remains limited, but brisk walking and light mobility are usually permitted after clearance. By week 4, most patients are cleared to return to work and light exercise, provided it doesn’t involve upper-body strain.
We provide a custom recovery kit, post-op care, and access to our dedicated nurse line for 24/7 support.
Breast Augmentation procedure overview
Undergoing breast augmentation is a transformative experience — and understanding how the procedure works can give you the confidence and clarity to take the next step. At Beauté Plastic Surgery, Dr. Oscar Ramirez designs each procedure based on your unique anatomy and expectations, ensuring the highest level of customization from consultation to recovery.
Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all operation, Dr. Ramirez approaches augmentation as a precise aesthetic solution, tailored to enhance—not exaggerate—your natural figure.
Preoperative planning: Where transformation begins
- Every successful breast augmentation starts long before the operating room. During your initial consultation, Dr. Ramirez performs a full physical assessment, listens carefully to your goals, and guides you through a range of implant sizes, shapes, and materials. He also evaluates factors such as your chest wall shape, skin elasticity, and nipple position to determine the most appropriate surgical plan.
- Together, you’ll decide on:
- The type of implant: saline, silicone, or gummy bear
- Ideal implant size and projection
- Implant placement (over or under the muscle)
- The best incision technique for your anatomy and scar preferences
- No two surgical plans are identical, and this phase ensures the final outcome is not only beautiful, but authentic to you.
Implant placement: Function meets aesthetics
- Choosing where to position the implant affects not only how the breast looks, but also how it feels and behaves over time.
- Submuscular placement (beneath the pectoral muscle) tends to provide a more natural slope, lower risk of visible rippling, and easier future mammograms.
- Subglandular placement (above the muscle) may offer faster recovery and enhanced upper-pole fullness, particularly for patients with adequate natural breast tissue.
- Dr. Ramirez doesn’t follow a one-size-fits-all rule — his recommendation is based on your body structure and the result you’re aiming for.
- Breast augmentation at Beauté Plastic Surgery is not a “routine surgery.” It’s a highly individualized process grounded in anatomical understanding, artistic vision, and surgical precision. The combination of Dr. Ramirez’s expertise and your unique goals results in a procedure that feels tailored — because it is.
Surgical technique and procedure details
- On the day of your procedure, you’ll be under general anesthesia, administered by a board-certified anesthesiologist. The surgery typically lasts 1 to 1.5 hours.
- Dr. Ramirez uses refined, minimally invasive techniques to reduce trauma and optimize healing. Depending on your case, he may make the incision:
- In the inframammary fold (under the breast)
- Around the areola (periareolar)
- In the armpit (transaxillary)
- Each method has specific aesthetic and anatomical advantages, which Dr. Ramirez will explain in detail during your consultation.
- Once the implant is placed—either beneath the chest muscle (submuscular) or above it (subglandular)—he ensures precise symmetry and projection before closing the incision with fine sutures to promote optimal scar healing.
