Why Choose Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation surgery is a safe and effective way to enhance the appearance of your breasts. This procedure can increase breast size using breast implants and is often combined with a breast lift to help achieve exceptional results.
There are several reasons someone may choose to undergo breast augmentation. If you're in Chevy Chase, MD, or the surrounding area, consider what breast augmentation surgery can do for you.
Add Volume
Breast implants can increase your breast size by adding volume. Breast augmentation with breast implants can create a curvier silhouette and boost your self-confidence.
Achieve Symmetry
If your breasts are noticeably uneven or you're concerned about subtle asymmetry in your chest, you may consider surgical correction with breast implants. Breast augmentation with breast implants can balance the size and shape of your bust. Combining breast augmentation with a breast lift can lead to improved symmetry and proportion of your body.

What to Expect From Breast Augmentation
During your initial consultation, Dr. Rassael will determine if you're a good candidate for breast augmentation by reviewing your medical history and making sure you have realistic expectations about your results. The next steps are to determine which breast implant option is right for you and schedule surgery.
Anesthetic
Breast Augmentation is performed under general anesthesia. Before the procedure, a local anesthetic will be administered to you, ensuring optimal comfort.
Incisions
Your cosmetic surgeon will carefully make incisions under your breast or around your nipple to reduce future scarring. Your individual needs will determine the location and size of the incisions. Dr. Rassael will insert your implants according to your desired results, placing them either on top of or underneath the pectoral muscles. Your cosmetic surgeon will use synthetic implants in both breasts to improve their shape, symmetry, and size.
Closure
Once Dr. Rassael determines that your implants are in the proper position, he will stitch the incisions closed with layered sutures. Your surgeon may use tape or surgical adhesive to further seal the skin. The area will be bandaged as a final step, and your surgeon will monitor you as the anesthesia wears off.
After your surgery, we will provide you with detailed instructions for your recovery process. You will need to schedule a follow-up appointment so your cosmetic surgeon can monitor your progress. Because breast augmentation is typically an outpatient procedure, patients can return home after surgery.
Types of Breast Implants Saline vs. Silicone
Talking to your cosmetic surgeon is the best way to determine which type of implant will best fit your needs. Dr. Rassael can assist you in deciding between fatty tissue, saline, or silicone implants. Enjoy the benefits of breast augmentation and achieve the most natural-looking results by working alongside Dr. Rassael to choose the implant type that works best for you.
Saline Implants
Saline implants consist of a silicone outer shell filled with sterile saltwater. Unlike pre-filled silicone implants, saline implants are inserted as empty shells and filled after insertion. Because they only require a small incision, there is less chance of visible scarring.
Patients with modest breast tissue often prefer the look of saline implants to silicone. While silicone appears more natural, saline typically appears rounder and more pronounced. This option also provides an affordable alternative to silicone.
Silicone Implants
Silicone implants are filled with silicone gel, and compared to saline implants, provide a more natural look and a closer feel to breast tissue. These implants require a slightly larger incision, sit higher on your chest, and may feel lighter than saline. The benefit of silicone gel is its thick consistency, in the slight chance that your implants develop a small tear, the consistency ensures you will not experience leaking of the cohesive material or collapse of the implant.
Capsular contracture is a risk associated with breast implants that involves the hardening and contracting of scar tissue. Through careful planning and strategic techniques, Dr. Rassael will work to reduce the risk of capsular contracture and other complications.
Women who want only a slight increase in their bust size or a more natural look may consider using their own fatty tissue for breast augmentation. Liposuction is used to remove fatty tissue from your stomach or buttocks, which is then used to augment your breasts to achieve your desired shape and size.

My first visit to the office was in January of 2009 to acquire about liposuction. The office appearance is very clean, nice area and friendly staff. The doctor is someone who takes his time to listen to your needs and will provide his honest option on different medical procedures for you to pursue. The cost is not really expensive at all. If you sign up to their e-News, you can recieve discounted specials to use. After almost a year, I have decided to go along with the surgery. I feel confident that I will look great.
