Avoid "Bargain" Breast Augmentation

Choosing a plastic surgeon to perform you breast augmentation based solely on price can end up being physically, emotionally and financially costly in the end. Though breast augmentation is a very popular procedure, it takes skill and care to perform correctly, and mistakes can be difficult to correct. For those considering breast augmentation, New Jersey plastic surgeon Dr. Paul Parker recommends researching your surgeon well so your augmentation can be performed correctly the first time.

Speaking of the difficulty breast augmentation revision surgery poses, Dr. Parker says, "Once the pocket for the breast augmentation is made, it is...difficult to re-make. A revision can only correct so much - it can only be so good. I would much rather be the first surgeon who creates the pocket for the implants than to be the surgeon making a correction."

To ensure the best breast augmentation results the first time around, it is important to explore your reasons for choosing a particular plastic surgeon. Though it may be tempting to opt for a "bargain" deal, price should not be the main selling point; quality should.
