  • Achieve a balanced body contour

These individuals often experience high satisfaction post-surgery.

Personalized Consultation Process

Your journey begins with an in-depth consultation, typically lasting about an hour, where Dr. Tornambe discusses your desired breast size, shape, and dimensions. Patients are encouraged to bring photographs that reflect their aesthetic preferences. Various techniques, including trying different implant sizes with bras and T-shirts, help visualize potential outcomes. A follow-up consultation ensures a mutual understanding of expectations before proceeding.

Incision Locations:

Under the nipple, within the breast crease, or in the armpit.​

We know you have questions, and we got all the answers—if there is something else you'd like to know about this Aesthetic Procedure please reach out to us here (212) 628-7600 and we will gladly answer all your questions.

What is the advantage of silicone versus saline implants?

Modern silicone implants are soft, safe, and closely mimic natural breast tissue, especially beneficial for women with minimal breast tissue or those requiring implants over the muscle. Saline implants are effective for many women, particularly those with a modest amount of breast tissue or those desiring implants under the muscle.

How long do breast implants last?

Manufacturers recommend replacing silicone implants every 12-15 years. Saline implants can remain until they leak or deflate, typically lasting around 12-15 years.

How long will I be swollen after undergoing breast augmentation?

Most swelling subsides within 4-6 weeks, with complete resolution taking approximately three months.

When will my recovery be complete?

It usually takes about six months for the muscle tissue, breast tissue, and skin to stretch and accommodate the implants, allowing them to settle. Patients often report that the implants feel like their own by this time.

What kind of scars can I expect after a breast augmentation procedure?

Scars are strategically placed in hidden locations and vary among individuals. Dr. Tornambe and his staff provide comprehensive scar care guidance post-surgery.
