During your consultation with Dr. Younai he reviews your treatment options and choices of different breast implants, including pros and cons of each implant and procedure, potential risks and complications, recovery course, pre and post operative instructions, and esthetic outcomes. You will also have an opportunity to “touch and feel” different types of saline or silicone breast implants. There are also many before-and-after pictures and high resolution images of breast augmentation available in our photo gallery.
