With its beautiful weather year-round and pristine sandy dunes, Long Beach is the perfect place to enjoy wearing your favorite tops, swimwear, and dresses. Breast augmentation surgery can help women reclaim their figures after aging, pregnancy, or weight loss, providing a shapelier, more feminine silhouette.
Today, breast augmentation is a highly customized plastic surgery procedure. Breast augmentation patients have a wide array of implant sizes and shapes to choose from, as well as options for fat transfer breast augmentation. Dr. Farbod Esmailian, a board-certified plastic surgeon in Long Beach, has an intuitive understanding of female anatomy, and he creates natural-looking results with balanced and elegant breast shape.
What is Breast Augmentation?
After pregnancy, nursing, the aging process, or weight fluctuations, the breasts may lose their volume and supple fullness, becoming deflated. Breast augmentation surgery is a surgical procedure designed to restore youthful roundness and enhance breast volume. It is often performed in combination with a breast lift to address both volume loss and breast ptosis (sagging) simultaneously.
Dr. Esmailian is a perfectionist when it comes to cosmetic surgery and body sculpting. He will curate a treatment plan tailored to the individual, producing a tasteful, balanced outcome. If you are excited about the thought of once again feeling confident and secure in your appearance, contact Dr. Esmailian today to learn more about your options for breast enhancement with breast augmentation surgery.

The Breast Augmentation Procedure & Recovery
There are two primary methods for breast augmentation: breast implants (either saline implants filled with saltwater or silicone gel) and fat transfer.2 The surgical procedure is similar for each method. Patients will be administered general anesthesia to ensure comfort throughout the process. To minimize visible scarring, Dr. Esmailian carefully places incisions, often in the inframammary fold or near the areola. Through these incisions, breast implants are inserted into the breast pocket, sutures are placed, or fat is injected to increase breast volume.
Once the breast augmentation procedure is complete, breast augmentation patients will need assistance for the first few days of the recovery period. The initial recovery typically lasts four to six weeks,3 during which patients should avoid strenuous activities.
