Drop and Fluff
Breast Augmentation is a procedure used to volumize and enhance the appearance of the breasts. This is done by inserting implants beneath the entire breast or transferring fat cells from other parts of the body, such as the thighs or stomach, and filling the breasts that way. Both methods yield similar results, leaving you with more shapely, voluminous, and fuller-looking breasts.
The Difference
Breast Augmentations address the shape and volume of the breasts. Dr. Santosa can plump up your breasts by utilizing implants or relocated fat cells while maintaining a natural appearance that enhances your confidence and appearance. Breast Lifts only lift the breast tissue to provide a younger look but does not add shape or volume.

A Lifted, Voluminous Appearance
Breast Augmentation works by filling the empty, sagging space in the breast with an implant that restores the chest’s fullness. As time goes on, a process that many cosmetic surgeons call “dropping and fluffing” happens. “Dropping and fluffing” refers to the behavior of the breast as the implants settle in. As your chest is healing, the implants will be “dropped” into a natural position from gravity and how your body rests. They will then “fluff” out, resting in the most natural position and spreading out as a real breast would while still maintaining its lifted, voluminous appearance.
Your Chest Will Thank You
Breast Augmentation can help restore volume, reshape, and provide a much more youthful appearance to your breasts using relocated fat cells or implants. Good candidates for Breast Augmentation are adults in relatively good health and have realistic expectations for their procedure results. You should not receive a Breast Augmentation if you have underlying medical conditions that could interfere with your procedure or healing process, are pregnant, or are breastfeeding. You can talk with Dr. Santosa during your consultation to find out if Breast Augmentation is good for you or if there is an alternate procedure that can yield similar results and is safer for your health.

Enhancing Your Natural Beauty
When you are ready for your procedure, Dr. Santosa will begin by having you change into a medical gown and clean your chest where the incisions are placed. She will administer the general anesthesia to put you to sleep before proceeding. Dr. Santosa will make small incisions around the breast where she will insert the implants or relocate fat taken from your stomach or another part of the body. Once inserted, she will gently manipulate the implants or fat into its proper place to achieve the desired outcome. Dr. Santosa will begin stitching your incisions closed when everything is in place. Your breasts will be rounder, more voluminous, and appear more youthful.
Results That Are Worth It
You may experience slight bruising and swelling around the incision sites for the first week after your procedure. You may also feel a sense of tightness in the chest, which will subside within the first two or three days. You should avoid lifting anything over ten pounds, over-exerting yourself, working out, smoking, or drinking for at least the first two weeks after your procedure. Most patients find themselves back at work within a week post-procedure, but if you have a more strenuous or demanding job, you may need to take off longer. Breast Augmentation results take about three to four months to show fully. At this time, all swelling and bruising should have subsided entirely, and your implants should be completely settled and resting naturally now.
Dr. Katherine B. Santosa will provide supplements that help with bruising if necessary. She will be available to answer any questions and provide guidance throughout your healing process with just a call. Schedule your Breast Augmentation consultation today and begin your journey to newfound confidence.
Breast Augmentations do leave scars; however, they are not extremely visible. Depending on where the incisions are made, scars can be hidden easily or barely noticeable, even when looking directly at them. Dr. Santosa will discuss incision placement with you during your consultation. Many patients wait until after they are fully healed to get a laser or other cosmetic treatment that helps reduce the appearance of scars.
Risks associated with Breast Augmentation are rare. Some rare risks include a build-up of scar tissue, bleeding, infection, rupture of the implant, and possible nerve damage of and around the nipple.
The average cost of a Breast Augmentation is about $8,000. This price can vary depending on the individual and their unique procedure. Dr. Santosa’s team will be happy to assist in answering any questions you may have during your consultation about pricing, payment, and financing. Since Breast Augmentation is considered an elective cosmetic procedure, it is not covered by insurance.
