Good candidates for breast augmentation are women who desire to improve their breast appearance and feel more comfortable and confident in their bodies.

FAQ ABOUT BREAST AUGMENTATION
What Does Breast Augmentation Mean?
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure to increase breast size and improve the shape of the breasts. It’s also known as augmentation mammoplasty, and sometimes, more informally, as a “boob job.” Whether you prefer a subtle enhancement or a more noticeable change, Dr. Aycock will guide you through the process to ensure beautiful, natural-looking results.
How Much Does a Breast Augmentation Cost?
A breast augmentation procedure using implants, performed under general anesthesia in a surgical setting, generally starts at approximately $10,500, with the final cost influenced by the complexity and extent of your unique needs. We believe in complete transparency, so during your consultation, Dr. Aycock’s team will provide a detailed quote and discuss all financial options, including our financing solutions, to ensure you feel confident moving forward.
What Is Recovery Like After Breast Augmentation?
Recovery time varies for each individual but generally involves discomfort, swelling, and bruising in the chest area. Patients should avoid strenuous activities for several weeks and wear a supportive surgical bra to aid healing. Most people can return to work and normal light activities within a few days to a week after surgery.
How Long Do Breast Implants Last?
While breast implants are not considered lifetime devices, they are designed to be long-lasting. The lifespan of implants varies depending on implant type, placement, and individual factors. Some women may choose to replace or remove their implants after several years due to changes in breast shape, size, or personal preference.
Do you offer Motiva® implants, and how are they different?
Yes, we are proud to offer the latest Motiva® technology alongside our other trusted, FDA-approved brands like Mentor and Sientra. Motiva is a popular choice for patients seeking a very soft, “natural” feel because their Ergonomix® gel is designed to shift with gravity—behaving much like natural breast tissue. You can read my full breakdown of how Motiva compares to our other trusted brands here.
However, there is no “one-size-fits-all” implant. We choose the best brand and style for each patient based on their unique chest wall anatomy, skin elasticity, and desired look. Whether we select Motiva, Mentor, or Sientra, our goal is always a safe, beautiful, and long-lasting result.
How Is Fat Grafting Different from Breast Implants?
Unlike breast implants, which are artificial devices inserted into the breasts to increase volume, fat grafting uses the patient’s fat cells for augmentation, resulting in a more natural look and feel. The results of fat grafting are typically long-lasting. While some initial volume loss may occur as the body absorbs some injected fat, the remaining fat cells usually integrate with the surrounding tissue, providing a permanent enhancement to the breasts.
