Breast implants are a safe way to make you more comfortable with the size and shape of your breasts
(Telehealth Available – Click Here)
Breast augmentation, or breast implants, is one of the top plastic surgery procedures in Connecticut. Breast implants can be either silicone or saline, and both look quite natural and are very safe. Our breast augmentation / breast implant procedure benefits women who are dissatisfied with their breast size or who have suffered changes in the shape of their breasts from weight loss or having children. Breast enlargement can also help when one breast is noticeably smaller than the other.
If you are not pregnant or breast feeding, your breasts have stopped developing, and you are in good health, then you should schedule your consultation today with Dr. Pan or Dr. Davila, one of CT’s top board-certified plastic surgeons, to learn more about silicone and saline breast implants, cost of breast implants (and financing available for your breast augmentation surgery) and receive a customized treatment plan. Please bring a non-padded bra in the size you would like to become to this appointment. Please know that insurance does not cover this surgical procedure.
The Breast Augmentation / Breast Implant or Breast Enhancement Procedure
Breast enhancement is performed by placing an implant either above or below the chest muscle to increase the size of the breast. In most cases this can be done through a small incision to minimize scars. This breast augmentation surgery is usually performed as an outpatient under light general anesthesia. Recovery lasts one to two weeks and is generally tolerated well.

Silicone vs. Saline Breast Implants
The difference between silicone breast implants and saline breast implants is their texture. Silicone implants are softer and feel more natural than saline implants but are also more expensive. Costs of both augmentation surgeries are determined during your cosmetic consultation. Use of the Keller funnel has now allowed silicone breast augmentations without the historically longer scars of the past. Augmentation results can be extremely natural, with no obvious signs that breasts implants have been added.
