Love Dr Graham and his staff. I have had two procedures with very positive outcomes. Never had to wait more than 10 minutes to see Dr Graham and he answers all questions without rushing. His staff is friendly and helpful. Since I am in the medical field I have the luxury of exposure to the best Physicians. There is none better than Dr Graham if you want natural results.

Types of Breast Implants

Our commitment to safety is shown through our actions. We do not use breast implants that contain silicone gel. We place saline breast implants, which have a stronger safety profile than silicone implants.

Saline Implants

Saline implants consist of a silicone shell filled with sterile saltwater. In the event of a leak, the saline is naturally absorbed by the body.

In contrast, when silicone implants rupture, the silicone gel stays in place and can potentially cause pain or hardening of the breast tissue over time. The only way to know if the implant has ruptured is for the patient to undergo an MRI.

While implants containing silicone gel are known for natural-looking and natural-feeling results, it's important to understand that Dr. Graham excels at providing results with saline implants that look absolutely real, as well. By placing the implant below the pectoral muscle, your breast tissue is moved forward for increased bust size and a natural appearance.

Factors to Consider Before Breast Augmentation

a1

Your Overall Health

As with any surgical procedure, you should be in good overall health before undergoing breast augmentation. You should provide a complete medical history so Dr. Graham can evaluate your risk for complications.

Pregnancy

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, you should wait a few months. This is recommended because both pregnancy and breastfeeding can affect the shape and size of your breasts.

Feelings About Your Breasts

If you are unhappy with your breasts and the lack of natural breast tissue, this procedure can help. However, you should only undergo breast augmentation to please yourself, not someone else.

Expectations

You should have realistic expectations about the possibilities and limitations of breast augmentation. Dr. Graham will help educate you about the procedure beforehand to help you make your decision.

Breast Sagging

Breast augmentation cannot address significant sagging of the breast tissue and skin. If you are concerned about sagging, Dr. Graham can also perform a breast lift to address the issue.

What to Expect During Breast Augmentation Surgery

The breast augmentation procedure is performed in about one hour at our Greenville, SC, surgery center.

Sedation

For your comfort, breast augmentation surgery is performed under general anesthesia.

Incisions

Most patients choose the inframammary incision location (under the breast). However, our surgeon can also place the breast implants through incisions along the areolar margin (around the nipple). The areolar approach is ideal for patients who wish to undergo breast lift at the same time as augmentation surgery.

Implant Placement

Dr. Graham will carefully place the implant below the pectoral muscle.

Closing Incisions

Once the surgery is complete, we will carefully and strategically place sutures to ensure minimal scarring.

Bandages

Our plastic surgeon will place a bandage wrap around the breasts and send you home to begin your recovery.

Ask an Expert All of Your Questions About Breast Implants

Patient education is an essential part of a successful breast augmentation procedure. After all, when you know what to expect and feel confident about your choices concerning breast surgery, you're far more likely to love your results. During your consultation with Dr. Graham, you can ask any questions you like about breast implants, and determine if he is the right surgeon for you.

Our Greenville office welcomes patients from Asheville, Spartanburg, and communities throughout South Carolina. Request your surgical consultation today by writing to us or calling:

Dr. Sutton Graham is very knowledgeable of not only the medical aspect of elective/corrective surgery, but also the psychological side. He sets realistic expectations, and in my experience, it went way better than I expected. Highly recommend!

After Receiving Breast Implants

After the breast augmentation procedure at our Greenville, SC, surgery center, you’ll be able to return home to begin the recovery process.

How Can I Manage Pain?

Our surgeon uses special techniques during surgery to minimize post-operative discomfort and speed your recovery. Medication will help manage any post-operative pain. As you recover, you will be able to taper off prescription pain medications and use Tylenol.

When Can I Start Moving Around?

You should have full range of motion in your arms and shoulders right away, and you will be able to walk around the first day after surgery. However, you'll need to avoid strenuous activity for several weeks.

When Can I Return to Normal Activities?

You can drive a car within days of your breast augmentation surgery and return to light work in about one week. Exercise should be avoided for about six weeks, or until you are cleared by our surgeon.

What Type of Bra Should I Wear?

We’ll give you a soft bra to wear for a few weeks after surgery as your breast implants settle and your incisions heal. Avoid wearing a bra with an underwire for a couple of months.

Will I Have Follow-Up Appointments?

Several follow-up office visits with your surgeon are typical after receiving breast implants, and we’ll be happy to see you for extra appointments if you have questions.

How Long Will My Results Last?

Breast implants may need to be replaced over time. Results are long lasting, but breasts may change with age and gravity. In most cases, results last at least 10 years.

Are There Any Risks?

Rupture is always a risk when it comes to implants. If your saline implant ruptures, it will quickly become apparent as the saline is harmlessly absorbed by the body (as opposed to silicone gel, which stays in place and is difficult to remove). Capsular contracture is another risk that happens in about one in six cases. Scar tissue always develops around implants, but in some cases, it can tighten and squeeze the implant, dramatically distorting its shape. This is called capsular contracture, and it can be corrected with revision surgery. If you notice any changes at all in the appearance of your breasts after breast augmentation, get in touch with Dr. Sutton right away to determine if you are experiencing capsular contracture or other conditions.

Best decision ever! I am 6 months post op. Dr. Graham and his staff are really amazing. I had a "Mommy Makeover" and really could not be happier. If you are considering any surgery, I highly recommend Dr. Graham and his staff.
