Understanding Breast Augmentation Surgery

Breast augmentation (also called breast enlargement or augmentation mammaplasty) is one of the most commonly performed plastic surgery procedures nationwide, with about 300,000 women choosing this procedure each year.

Many patients at our award-winning Little Rock practice choose breast augmentation because they want to:

  • Increase the size of naturally small breasts
  • Achieve symmetry between uneven breasts
  • Restore volume lost after pregnancy or breastfeeding
  • Enhance breast size after weight loss
  • Improve proportions and overall figure balance
  • Achieve natural-looking breast enhancement

In many cases, patients seeking breast augmentation combine breast implants with other procedures to give their bust a perkier, more youthful projection. Dr. Yee can help determine the best approach during your consultation.

Most procedures can be completed in about one hour, depending on the technique and whether additional procedures are performed.

Real Results, Real Confidence

What Can Breast Implants Improve?

Size

Whether you’ve struggled with underdeveloped breasts since adolescence or lost breast volume after pregnancy or weight loss, breast implants can help. Dr. Yee offers a full range of implant sizes to achieve your desired cup size while maintaining a natural appearance.

Shape

If you have unbalanced breast tissue, or if your breasts lack the round, attractive shape you desire, breast implants can give you a more pleasing and feminine projection. Patients appreciate Dr. Yee’s award-winning artistic eye for creating results that look completely organic to your body.

Balance

Many women are self-conscious because their breasts are different sizes. Breast implants are carefully selected to restore balance and create a more proportionate bustline that looks naturally beautiful.

Silhouette

Having underdeveloped breasts can give you a figure that seems out of proportion. Breast augmentation can enhance your figure by creating the hourglass shape many women desire, improving how clothes fit and boosting overall confidence.

Silicone vs. Saline Breast Implants

At our award-winning Little Rock practice, we offer both saline and silicone breast implants. Both types come in many sizes and profiles to fit different body types. Dr. Yee can help determine the best implant type, ideal placement, and incision location during your consultation.

Silicone Breast Implants

Silicone breast implants are pre-filled with silicone gel, and although they are typically more expensive than saline, many patients prefer silicone implants for the natural look and feel they provide for breast augmentation in Little Rock. Silicone breast implants sit higher in the chest and are typically undetectable to the touch.

In addition to traditional silicone implants, we offer Natrelle® 410 gummy bear implants. These are teardrop-shaped implants made up of a highly cohesive gel. Due to their shape and composition, these implants feel like natural breast tissue and provide a natural contour as they mimic the droop that occurs in the bottom half of breasts

If silicone breast implants break, it can take some time for them to deflate. Silicone gel cannot be absorbed by the body, so rupture may cause symptoms like pain and changes in breast shape. Implants should be removed (or removed and replaced) as soon as possible.

Saline Breast Implants

saline implant

Saline implants are typically less expensive than silicone gel implants and are filled with a safe saline solution after they are inserted, so they require smaller incisions. They have a natural shape and are soft to the touch, but may feel firmer than silicone breast implants.

Some women find that saline implants don’t have as natural a feel as silicone. They can also show “rippling” in certain positions, particularly in women with very little existing breast tissue.

If saline implants break or leak, you will be aware of the rupture within a few minutes or hours because it doesn’t take long for the implant to deflate. The saline solution can be safely absorbed by the body and the shell can be removed. We may be able to remove the shell and replace your implant in the same procedure.

The Keller Funnel® Advantage

Keller Funnel

Dr. Yee is a KELLER FUNNEL® Certified Physician and uses this advanced technique for silicone breast augmentation. This cone-shaped nylon device allows for no-touch implant delivery, which:

  • Reduces infection risk significantly
  • Requires smaller incisions and less scarring
  • Causes less tissue trauma and bruising
  • Decreases post-operative pain
  • Protects the implant shell from damage
  • Enables more natural-looking breast implant placement

Traditional breast implant insertion involves pushing the implant through a small incision, which can damage both tissue and the implant. The KELLER FUNNEL allows Dr. Yee to expertly guide your implants into position with minimal force and trauma—a key advantage for patients seeking natural-looking results.

Breast Augmentation Cost

Starting at Just $4,900

Quality breast augmentation doesn’t have to be out of reach. Dr. Yee offers breast augmentation starting at just $4,900, making natural breast enhancement accessible to more women.

The final cost varies based on several factors:

  • Type of breast implants chosen (silicone vs. saline)
  • Surgical technique and implant placement
  • Whether additional procedures are performed
  • Anesthesia and facility fees
  • Customization based on your unique goals

Insurance companies typically don’t cover cosmetic breast augmentation. However, our Little Rock office offers flexible financing options including:

  • CareCredit®: Healthcare financing for qualified applicants
  • Multiple payment plans: Making breast augmentation affordable
  • Transparent pricing: No hidden fees or surprise costs
  • Affordable starting price: Beginning at $4,900

During your consultation, we’ll provide a detailed cost breakdown and discuss all financing options to help you achieve your enhancement goals without breaking the bank.

Choosing the Right Breast Implant Size and Shape

Natural-looking breast augmentation results depend heavily on selecting the right implant size and shape for your body. Dr. Yee specializes in helping patients achieve results that look completely natural and proportionate. Different factors impact this decision, including:

  • Your existing breast tissue volume
  • Body frame and proportions
  • Chest width and height
  • Lifestyle and activity level
  • Personal aesthetic goals
  • Desired level of enhancement

During your consultation at our Little Rock office, Dr. Yee will review all your options. You’ll see before-and-after photos of previous patients with similar body types to understand realistic outcomes. Our team will explain how to “try on” different sizes using special inserts or rice bags in your bra at home.

With Dr. Yee’s guidance and 20+ years of experience, you can be confident your breast implants will perfectly suit your figure and look completely natural.

Am I a Good Candidate for Breast Augmentation?

In Good Overall Health

Pre-existing medical conditions can increase surgical risks. You should be in good physical health, maintain a stable weight, and not smoke (or be willing to quit before surgery).

Finished Having Children

Pregnancy and breastfeeding can significantly affect breast augmentation results. We recommend waiting until you’ve completed your family before undergoing breast enlargement surgery.

Realistic in Their Expectations

Breast augmentation can dramatically enhance your breasts, but it has limitations. Clear communication with Dr. Yee about your goals and managing expectations leads to the highest satisfaction rates.

Unhappy With Their Breast Size or Shape

If you’re unhappy with small breasts, asymmetrical breasts, or volume loss—and it’s causing you daily stress—you’re likely a good candidate. However, breast augmentation should be done for yourself, not to please someone else.

Seeking Natural-Looking Results

Dr. Yee specializes in breast enhancement that looks completely organic to your body and proportionate to your frame.

Concerned About Sagging?

Breast augmentation alone doesn’t address significant sagging or excess skin from pregnancy or weight loss. If sagging concerns you, Dr. Yee will evaluate your skin elasticity and discuss all your options during your consultation to determine the best approach.

Hands down the best!! Everyone from Dr. Yee to her front office staff made the experience of a breast reduction for my teenage daughter absolutely wonderful. You will not find a more caring facility. Plus, any doctor who gives their personal cell phone and home number, and genuinely means for you to use it if there are any problems (which there won’t be) or concerns, is a rarity and top notch in my book! We drove over two hours one way to see Dr. Yee, and for any plastic surgery needs moving forward, she’s the only one we will use!
Emily Rod
I couldn’t be happier with my breast augmentation results! From my very first consultation, Dr. Yee and the entire team made me feel so comfortable and supported. They were all incredibly friendly and informative, answering all my questions and making sure I felt confident in the choices that I wanted every step of the way. Professional, attentive, and skilled. The results look exactly like I pictured in my head and exactly what I hoped for. I’m so grateful for the care and attention I received throughout the entire process. Highly recommend to anyone considering surgery!
Cindy Woodson
Dr Yee and her team are Fantastic! From consultation to recovery for breast reduction surgery, they have surpassed all my expectations. Dr. Suzanne Yee provided me with expert surgical care that was patient focused, thorough and thoughtful. I’m very pleased with my new size and shape. Angie, medical assistant, is leading me through my post-op visits with compassion, commitment and professionalism. Both of them are carefully monitoring my recovery and answering all my questions at my visits or by phone. My appointments are efficient and everyone I meet is friendly and helpful. Plus, I like that there have been no ‘extra expenses’ after the surgery and they provide what I need for self care at home. Dr Yee Cosmetic & Laser Surgery Center has been everything I need to improve my quality of life with breast reduction surgery, Thank You! I recommend Dr Yee to anyone electing to have cosmetic procedures or surgeries.
Kim strong
I’m 62 and decided I needed some changes. I had a breast reduction/lift, tummy tuck and liposuction. My experience at this clinic was amazing. My pain was minimal. Which was one thing I worried about beforehand. The staff was so kind and very helpful. Answered all my questions. I did my research before coming to the decision to use Dr. Yee. I would recommend Dr. Yee for all my cosmetic surgeries.
Caitlin Wolfe
I could not say enough great things about Dr. Yee and her staff! I had a breast augmentation done one year ago. The process from start to finish was seamless, and I am so happy with my results. I recommend her to everyone I know!

Dr. Yee and her staff are the very best! If you’re considering any surgery, filler, or treatments, you need to go to Dr. Yee! I got a breast augmentation and love my results. They’re exactly what I wanted and they look and feel so natural. Dr. Yee and her staff make you feel like a friend and treat you like family. She made herself available 24/7 for any questions and concerns. You can tell she really cares about her patients. I drive from 3 hours away because she is so worth it!

daphne given
I can not say enough good stuff about Dr. Yee and her staff. Everybody is so welcoming and kind. I have had a facelift..browlift..chin implant..fillers…ThermiVa…breast lift and implants. I have only felt confidence and safety with ever procedure. I had lost my smile over the years from putting myself last on the to do list and Dr Yee has helped me not only find it but surpass where it was before. I am so happy and pleased beyond words with her professionalism and overall friendly demeanor. She makes you feel safe and secure every step of the way with each phone call when she checks on you and explains the process of what’s happening and every hug she gives in her office. Her level of care shows in everything she does. I would highly recommend Dr Yee and her staff it doesn’t feel like a doctors office but more like going to a friend for help. I give 100 stars to the whole staff!!! Thank you Dr Yee
Kaitlin Mayhair
Dr. Yee and her nurses were AMAZING. Not only did they squeeze me in to have them done before my wedding but they also gave me exactly what I wanted! Very natural looking breasts and I couldn’t be happier with them! I 100% recommend Dr. Yee!

Your Breast Augmentation Consultation in Little Rock

During your consultation at our award-winning Little Rock practice, you’ll be treated with discretion and respect. Dr. Yee and our professional staff ensure you feel comfortable while discussing:

  • Your specific concerns and goals for breast augmentation
  • Your aesthetic preferences and desired breast size
  • Your complete health history to ensure you’re a good candidate
  • Implant options (silicone vs. saline, size, profile, placement)
  • Incision locations and surgical approach
  • Recovery expectations and timeline
  • How to achieve the most natural-looking results

Dr. Yee will be completely honest about what breast augmentation can and cannot achieve, helping you develop realistic expectations. She’ll show you before-and-after photographs of Little Rock patients with similar breast characteristics to yours, demonstrating her expertise in natural breast enhancement.

Breast Augmentation Surgery Steps

1

Anesthesia

For your comfort and safety, breast augmentation is performed under general anesthesia in our accredited surgical facility in Little Rock. Most breast augmentation procedures take approximately one hour to complete, though this varies based on technique and whether additional procedures are performed.

2

Incisions

Dr. Yee will create discreet incisions in one of several locations, chosen based on your anatomy and implant type:

  • Inframammary (under the breast fold) – most common for natural results
  • Periareolar (around the nipple)

3

Implant Placement

Your breast implants will be positioned either:

  • Submuscular placement: Under the pectoral muscle for more natural appearance and easier mammogram reading
  • Subglandular placement: Above the muscle but under breast tissue

Saline implants are filled after placement to achieve the exact size desired. Silicone implants are placed using the Keller Funnel® device, which reduces infection risk and allows smaller incisions.

4

Closure

Once your breast implants are perfectly positioned, Dr. Yee closes the incisions with meticulous suturing techniques to minimize scarring and ensure natural-looking results.

5

Recovery and Results

You’ll wear a supportive surgical bra during the initial recovery period to support healing and optimal implant positioning. While you will see your larger breasts right away, the final results of your breast augmentation may not be apparent until as much as a year after surgery. During this time, your implants will naturally settle lower on your breasts and begin to look more natural. To protect your results as best as possible, we recommend wearing supportive bras and maintaining a stable weight.

The Rapid Recovery Method: Faster Healing

Dr. Yee wants all her breast augmentation patients to experience comfortable recovery with minimal downtime. She offers the Rapid Recovery Method—an advanced protocol that allows many patients to return to normal activities within 24 hours of surgery.

Many patients who choose Dr. Yee are amazed by how quickly they return to work, family responsibilities, and normal activities with the Rapid Recovery Method.

woman in black bra

How Rapid Recovery Works

Traditional breast augmentation involves dividing and stretching the pectoral muscle to create a pocket for the implant, resulting in significant trauma similar to a sports injury. The Rapid Recovery Method uses:

Advanced Surgical Technique

Dr. Yee employs refined surgical methods that cause minimal trauma and inflammation to the chest muscle, resulting in significantly less post-operative discomfort.

Alternate Pain Management

The reduced muscle trauma means many patients don’t need strong narcotic pain medications and recover comfortably with non-narcotic analgesics.

Immediate Physical Therapy

Because of reduced pain, patients can practice specialized arm and chest exercises almost immediately after surgery. These movements stimulate muscle repair and significantly decrease recovery time.

Frequently Asked Questions About Breast Augmentation

How Long Do I Need to Sleep on My Back After Breast Augmentation?

Most patients need to sleep on their back for 4-6 weeks after surgery to allow proper implant positioning and healing. Side sleeping can typically resume after 6 weeks, though this varies by individual and surgical approach. Dr. Yee will provide specific instructions based on your procedure.

How Painful Is Breast Augmentation Recovery?

Pain levels vary significantly between patients depending on pain tolerance, implant placement, and surgical technique. Most patients experience soreness and tightness for the first 2-3 weeks, with significant improvement by one month. The Rapid Recovery Method typically results in much less pain than traditional breast augmentation. Many patients manage discomfort with non-narcotic pain relievers.

Can I Get Cancer From Breast Implants?

Breast implants do not cause breast cancer and do not raise your risk of developing breast cancer. However, textured breast implants have been linked to a rare condition called breast implant-associated anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL). Dr. Yee does not and has never used textured implants, eliminating this risk for her patients.

Will My Breast Augmentation Results Look Natural?

Absolutely. Dr. Yee specializes in natural breast augmentation. With her 20+ years of experience and artistic eye, your results will look completely natural and proportionate to your body. She takes time during your consultation to understand your goals, body proportions, and lifestyle to select implants that complement your figure beautifully. Her before-and-after gallery showcases the natural-looking results achieved for patients throughout Arkansas.

Can I Breastfeed After Breast Augmentation?

Most women can successfully breastfeed after breast augmentation, especially with submuscular implant placement and inframammary incisions, which don’t affect milk ducts or nipple sensitivity. However, we recommend completing your family before getting breast implants, as pregnancy and breastfeeding can change your results.

Are There Any Risks to Breast Augmentation Surgery?

While rare, every surgical procedure carries some risk. Potential complications include:

  • Capsular contracture: Excessive scar tissue forming around the implant
  • Implant rupture or leakage: More common with saline implants
  • Changes in nipple sensation: Usually temporary
  • Implant malposition: Improper settling or movement
  • Infection: Very rare with proper surgical technique

Choosing an experienced, board-certified cosmetic surgeon like Dr. Yee significantly minimizes these risks. She uses advanced techniques including the Keller Funnel® to reduce infection risk and improve outcomes.

How Long Do Breast Implants Last?

Modern breast implants are durable and long-lasting. Most last 10-15 years or longer, though they’re not considered lifetime devices. Regular monitoring and mammograms help track implant condition. Many patients choose to replace implants after 10-15 years to maintain optimal appearance and update their size or style.

Will I Need to Replace My Breast Implants?

While breast implants don’t have a specific expiration date, most cosmetic surgeons recommend considering replacement after 10-15 years. Some patients choose earlier replacement to:

  • Update to a different size
  • Change implant type (saline to silicone or vice versa)
  • Address natural aging or lifestyle changes
  • Maintain the best possible aesthetic result

What's the Difference Between a Boob Job and Breast Augmentation?

“Boob job” is the colloquial term for breast augmentation surgery. They refer to the same cosmetic procedure. At Dr. Yee’s practice, we use the medical term “breast augmentation” to describe the surgical enhancement of breast size and shape using implants, but we understand patients use various terms when searching for this life-changing procedure.

Breast Augmentation Recovery and Results

Initial Recovery (First Week)

Most patients experience:

  • Mild to moderate swelling and bruising
  • Tightness in the chest
  • Some discomfort managed with prescribed medications
  • Restrictions on lifting and strenuous activity

Dr. Yee will have you return to our Little Rock office about one week after surgery for your first follow-up visit. You’ll wear a supportive post-surgical garment for several weeks to support proper healing and implant positioning.

Returning to Activities

  • Desk work: Many patients return within 3-5 days with Rapid Recovery
  • Light exercise: Approved after 2-3 weeks
  • Upper body workouts: Resumed after 4-6 weeks
  • Full activity: Most patients return to all activities by 6 weeks

Long-Term Results

The final results of your breast augmentation may take up to one year to fully develop. During this time, your breast implants will naturally settle into their permanent position, creating the most natural appearance possible.

Your new breast size can truly transform your life, allowing you to pursue professional, romantic, and personal endeavors with newfound confidence. Many patients report:

  • Greater clothing options and improved fit
  • Enhanced body confidence
  • Improved self-esteem in social situations
  • Greater comfort in intimate relationships
  • Natural-looking results they’re proud of

Protecting Your Results

To maintain your beautiful breast augmentation results:

  • Wear supportive bras, especially during exercise
  • Maintain a stable weight
  • Follow all post-operative care instructions
  • Attend scheduled follow-up appointments
  • Consider implant replacement after 10-15 years for optimal appearance

We Also Perform Breast Implant Exchange and Removal

There are many reasons you may want to remove or replace their breast implants:

It's Time to Replace Them

Although breast implants are designed to last 10-20 years, they will need to be replaced eventually. When it comes time for you to remove or replace your implants, Dr. Yee can perform your surgery. Implants can often be removed and replaced in the same procedure.

An Implant Has Ruptured

If an implant has ruptured, it should be removed or replaced quickly. Dr. Yee can safely remove the damaged implant and place a new one. She can also provide treatment for related issues, like capsular contracture.

You're Unhappy With the Results

If you’ve undergone breast augmentation in the past, but you aren’t satisfied with your results, Dr. Yee can exchange or remove your implants. If you want to try a new size, shape, or implant type, Dr. Yee can help you explore your options to ensure your satisfaction.
