Options to Suit Each Patient Dr. Chua’s Breast Augmentation Techniques

Implant-Based Breast Augmentation

Most patients who want to increase volume, improve symmetry, or enhance overall proportion choose breast augmentation with saline or silicone implants. During your consultation, Dr. Chua will go over type and size, incision location, and implant placement. These decisions are all tailored to your anatomy and the look you want to achieve.

Liposuction and Fat Transfer to the Breasts

Fat transfer can be an excellent option for select patients seeking a modest increase in volume with a more natural feel. This approach uses liposuction to harvest fat from another area of the body, which Dr. Chua then carefully processes and injects into the breasts. Our surgeon will review your candidacy for this approach during your consultation.

Breast Augmentation With Lift or Revision

If you’re dealing with sagging, volume loss after pregnancy, or unsatisfactory results from a previous breast surgery, you may benefit most from combining breast augmentation with a lift or undergoing revision surgery. Dr. Chua and our team regularly handle complex cases, including implant exchange and correction of prior outcomes.

Private Consultation in San Diego

Meet one-on-one with Dr. Chua to discuss your goals, review implant options, and create a personalized surgical plan. We’ll provide re-operative instructions and pricing details at this visit.

Surgery Day

Your breast augmentation will be performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia. Dr. Chua will place the incisions, position the implants, and apply surgical dressings. You’ll be able to return home the same day with detailed aftercare instructions.

First Week After Surgery

Swelling and tightness are normal during the initial recovery period. Continue wearing a surgical wrap or bra recommended by Dr. Chua in order to support healing. Most patients are able to resume light daily activities within several days.

Weeks Two Through Six

Your breasts will soften and settle into a more natural position as the swelling continues to resolve. You can gradually reintroduce more strenuous activities into your routine based on your healing progress and Dr. Chua’s guidance.

Long-Term Results

Your final results will continue to refine over several months as tissues fully adapt to the implants. Attend follow-up visits with Dr. Chua to ensure your healing stays on track and your outcome meets your expectations.

“I am in love with my results”

“I recently got a breast augmentation and I am in love with my results. He did a really good job with the surgery and I had no complications whatsoever. His staff and him listened to what I needed and provided satisfactory results. I would go back and do more work in the near future.”

Frequently Asked Questions About Breast Augmentation in San Diego, CA

Will breast augmentation look natural?
