In the past decade, it seems, there has been an interesting shift in the perception of a
woman’s choice to have her breasts surgically enhanced. There seems to be greater acceptance, now, than there once was. According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, there were more than three times the number of breast augmentation procedures performed in the United States in 2008 compared with 1997.
Breast augmentation is still a surgical procedure, however. It should still be approached with an educated awareness of the potential risks as well as rewards. There is a great deal that can be learned online about the fundamentals of cosmetic surgery, but the personal nature of the procedures makes a one on one consultation with a qualified surgeon crucial to your preparation. Dr. Robert Kearney is a board certified plastic surgeon that can help you make an educated decision about your breast augmentation in San Diego.
