You will be advised to wear a surgical support bra for several weeks during the recovery process, which limits swelling and provides necessary support and protection to the breasts while they heal. Most patients return to work within one to two weeks after their procedure and will be able to resume a regular exercise routine within about four weeks. Significant swelling should subside within six weeks, but residual swelling can persist for many months.","description":"Women who are dissatisfied with the size or shape of their breasts may consider surgery to create the look they want. In some cases, breast volume may have always been a concern, driving women to make a change to improve their appearance. Other times, breasts might change their size and shape due to lifestyle choices, weight fluctuations or the natural aging process. The result can be a loss of volume that makes a woman feel self-conscious about her profile. No matter what your reason for pursuing surgery, a breast augmentation (augmentation mammoplasty) can help you enlarge the breasts while achieving balance in the shape and proportionality of your curves. With their prestigious education and extensive training in the art and science of breast surgery, the doctors at Lickstein Plastic Surgery have successfully performed breast augmentation surgery on many patients from in and around Palm Beach County and beyond, helping them achieve outstanding results, restoring or improving their self-confidence.","howPerformed":"Breast augmentation may be performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the extent of the procedure and the preference of the patient and our surgeons. Incisions are made, and the selected implants are carefully placed into a created pocket within the breast. Incisions are meticulously sutured closed to minimize scarring after the procedure. The entire surgery typically takes about two hours to complete.","alternateName":"Boob Job","medicineSystem":"WesternConventional","procedureType":"PercutaneousProcedure","bodyLocation":"Chest","relevantSpecialty":"PlasticSurgery","additionalType":"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Breast_augmentation","areaServed":[{"@type":"City","url":"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Jupiter,_Florida","name":"Jupiter ","@id":"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Jupiter,_Florida"},{"@type":"City","url":"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Palm_Beach_Gardens,_Florida","name":"Palm Beach Gardens ","@id":"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Palm_Beach_Gardens,_Florida"},{"@type":"City","url":"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/West_Palm_Beach,_Florida","name":"West Palm Beach ","@id":"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/West_Palm_Beach,_Florida"}],"image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/www.licksteinplasticsurgery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Lickstein-header-Breast-Augmentation-1.jpg","height":"932","width":"1920","@id":"https:\/\/www.licksteinplasticsurgery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Lickstein-header-Breast-Augmentation-1.jpg"},"@id":"https:\/\/www.licksteinplasticsurgery.com\/breast-surgery\/breast-augmentation\/"}
