The short answer
Breast Augmentation adds breast volume with saline or silicone implants but does not lift the breast. It may suit adults who want more volume, improved symmetry, or restored fullness after pregnancy or weight change. In Northglenn, Dr. John Samas reviews your anatomy, your health history and your goals before recommending a plan.
Overview
What is Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure designed to enhance the size and shape of the breasts using either silicone or saline implants. This procedure is ideal for individuals seeking to increase breast volume, improve breast symmetry, or restore fullness after pregnancy or weight loss. The surgery involves small, discreet incisions, and implants are placed either under the breast tissue or beneath the chest muscle, depending on the patient's goals and anatomy. Breast augmentation is designed to give you the balanced appearance you are asking for, with long-lasting results, and many patients experience a boost in self-confidence and body image following the procedure.
Key Benefits

Recovery
What is recovery like?
Recovery from breast augmentation is typically smooth and gradual, allowing most patients to return to light activities within a week. Mild swelling, tightness, and tenderness are normal as the body adjusts, and a supportive surgical bra helps control swelling and maintain implant position. Strenuous exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for several weeks to ensure proper healing. As the implants settle and tissues soften, the breasts achieve their final shape and feel natural over the coming months, delivering beautiful, confident results.

- Most daily activities resume within 1 week
- Wear surgical/support bra for several weeks
