Your Breast Augmentation Consultation
During your initial consultation, Dr. MacArthur will examine and measure the size of your breasts. This will determine a safe range of implants that can be used for your breast augmentation procedure.
Any asymmetry between the breasts is noted, as this can often be corrected with surgery. Your ribs, sternum, and spine are also examined, as differences can influence surgical planning.
The final consideration is the need for a breast lift at the same time as breast augmentation surgery. Most patients prefer a breast lift with breast augmentation surgery for a more lifted look. Another popular surgery with breast implants is tummy tuck. This will be discussed with Dr. MacArthur during your initial consultation.

Silicone Vs Saline Breast Implants
Choosing the right type of breast implant for your surgery
Silicone gel-filled breast implants are filled with a cohesive silicone gel that feels much more natural than traditional saline-filled implants and reduces the chance of rippling in the breast. Traditional saline-filled breast implants are filled with saline, meaning they are more likely to ripple. At New Age Medical Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery, silicone implants are the most popular choice for breast augmentation because they offer a more natural look and feel than traditional saline implants.
Breast implants have a lifetime warranty, you will be provided with an implant registration card with the implants detailed information directly from the manufacturer.
