Myth 1: Breast Implants Look Fake
Thanks to modern advancements in surgical techniques and implant materials, like cohesive silicone gel implants under the chest muscle, breast implants can look and feel incredibly natural. Dr. Pearl works with patients to choose the right implant size, shape, and placement to complement their body. Whether you want a subtle change or dramatic results, achieving a natural look is the goal and very possible.
Myth 2: Breast Implants Are Unsafe
Modern breast implants are FDA-approved and undergo rigorous testing to ensure their safety. While no surgery is without risk, complications from breast implants are relatively rare. Working with a board-certified plastic surgeon ensures the procedure is performed safely and with high standards.
Myth 3: Breast Implants Are Permanent
Breast implants are long-lasting, but they’re not lifetime devices. On average, implants last 10-15 years, though many patients keep theirs longer without issues. Schedule regular check-ups with your surgeon so he can help monitor implant integrity and determine if replacement is necessary.
Myth 4: You Can’t Breastfeed After Breast Augmentation
Many women can still breastfeed post-breast augmentation, especially if the implants are beneath the muscle. The surgical approach and incision location play a role, so discuss your future breastfeeding plans with your surgeon during the consultation.
Myth 5: Breast Augmentation Is Primarily for Young Women
There’s no “perfect age” for breast augmentation. Many women in their 40s, 50s, and beyond choose this procedure to restore their figure or boost their confidence. As long as you’re in good health, age is not a limiting factor.
