According to the figures released by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, breast augmentation currently ranks as the number one cosmetic surgery procedure in the US. At the time of initial consultation, the surgeon will explain all about breast augmentation and may also show before and after photos related to the surgery.
The first concern of a responsible surgeon will be to explain the patient about all aspects of breast augmentation, and help her make an informed decision. Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Amir Nasir provides breast augmentation to patients in New Haven, Westport, CT, and surrounding communities.
What are Breast Augmentation Before and After Images?
Before and after images in case of breast augmentation plastic surgery refer to a pair or group of pictures belonging to an earlier patient who has received the same surgery with successful results. The pictures include images taken prior to the procedure and after the procedure at a stage when the post-op healing is completed and full effects of breast augmentation are visible.
The surgeon will take care to ensure that the pictures are obtained with the full consent of the patient, and presented before new patients in an appropriate manner. The patient’s identity may be kept undisclosed as required. The sole purpose behind this exercise is to use these photos as a visual tool to educate new patients about the potential effectiveness of breast augmentation surgery.
Benefits
Breast augmentation surgery is a highly customizable procedure, which can be tailored to suit the patient’s needs. The patient will have to make choices for the size and shape of implants, the location of incisions, and type of surgical technique. These decisions can be made more easily when the patient has access to breast augmentation before and after photos.
Some patients may need breast augmentation in conjunction with breast lift surgery. In such cases, the surgeon may specially show photographs of previous patients who have undergone the combined procedure to help the patient visualize the outcome more clearly. Experienced cosmetic surgeon Dr. Nasir receives patients from New Haven, Westport, CT, and nearby areas for breast augmentation.
Keeping Realistic Expectations
Best satisfaction levels in any cosmetic procedure such as breast augmentation are typically achieved by patients who have a positive frame of mind, clear goals, and realistic expectations. Such patients will be able to appreciate the results better, and feel more confident about their body.
Therefore, an experienced surgeon will prefer to show breast augmentation before and after photos at the very first appointment so that the patient knows clearly what to expect and what not to expect from the surgery. This will also mitigate the risk of any misunderstanding or disappointment occurring for the patient at a later stage.
Online Images
The plastic surgeon may choose to upload breast augmentation before and after photos on their practice website. New patients can conveniently access the photos online and review them in the comfort and privacy of their home or office. Thereafter, they may consider visiting the surgeon’s office for a personal breast augmentation consultation.
Online images are made possible because of digital technology. Digital technology has altered the course of human history and industry after industry has incorporated this technology into their game plan. The plastic surgery community is certainly one of them.
Now you can determine what to expect before it even happens. You do not have to make a decision off some vague brochure or some pictures in a picture book that tell an incomplete story. The vividness of the website photos are just amazing and patients across the world now know more about what they are signing up for and pretty much exactly what to expect.
