HOW IT WORKS
using a short scar technique and gentle tissue handling, a pocket is made in the breast, either above or under the muscle, tailored to the specific size of the implant chosen by the patient ahead of time. The implant, which can be silicone or saline filled, is then placed into the custom fit pocket, and the incision precisely closed using internal dissolving stitches
WHAT TO EXPECT
- a feeling of tightness in the breasts, some tenderness, and possibly stiffness in the chest muscles similar to having done a lot of push ups at the gym
PROCESS
- A consultation with Dr. Beber to discuss your specific surgical goals.
- A review of your health history including any previous surgeries, medications, health issues, and family history.
- An in depth explanation of the different surgical options including the advantages, disadvantages risks and complications of each option.
- Examination and detailed measurements will be taken of multiple aspects of the breast and chest including the height and width of the breast, the breast and nipple positions, and tissue quality to help determine the optimum procedure for your goals.
- These measurements will allow us to determine the range of implant sizes that will be your chest wall, in terms of diameter and projection, and you will then be able to try on various implants to help you visualize the changes created by the different implant sizes. You will have a second visit several weeks before your surgery to answer any further questions you may have, to finalize the surgical plan and implant size with you, to provide you with your prescriptions prior to surgery, and to complete all necessary paperwork.
- Recovery is an incredibly important part of any operation, and you will have multiple routine follow up appointments to monitor your progress, maximize healing, and optimize scar management.

REVIEWS
Dr Beber is amazing! I don’t take surgery lightly and had a ton of questions before deciding to move forward with breast augmentation. Dr. Beber never made me feel rushed and stayed behind for both consults to walk me through all my concerns. I knew he really cares about his patients when I reached out over email with some additional questions and his response was just as thorough each time (and always timely). He has great credentials, loads of experience and on top of that an excellent bedside manner – all very important factors when trusting someone with a cosmetic procedure on your body.
Throughout my experience with Dr. Beber, he was transparent and continued highlighting potential esthetic risks regarding my outcome (I started with pretty much no breast tissue and have petite dimensions and very thin overall). Not once did I feel pressured to go ahead with the procedure nor was I given unrealistic promises about the outcome. Dr. Beber did a great job managing my expectations, which further helped build that trust. When I finally made the decision to move forward, Dr. Beber did express concerns with the implant projection I wanted to go with (I decided on it after viewing some before/after photos online after our initial consult). He suggested an alternative that would be more suitable. In the end I chose to listen to his expert opinion and the end result is simply excellent – I am so happy I listened! I expected the day of surgery and post-op recovery to be super scary and painful but it was a breeze. I went into it fully trusting my doctor and entire time felt like I was in good hands and didn’t need to worry about a thing. This procedure has been life changing for me as I finally feel my body looks balanced and I don’t have to agonize over clothing choices and try to hide my body.
Exemplary Surgeon for Breast Augmentation – A Life-Changing Experience. I recently had the privilege of being under the care of Dr. Brett Beber for my breast augmentation procedure, and I cannot express how overwhelmingly positive my experience has been. From the initial consultation to post-surgery follow-ups, Dr. Beber’s expertise and compassionate approach have left an unforgettable impression on me. Right from the outset, Dr. Beber took the time to listen attentively to my concerns and understand my desired outcome. He patiently addressed all my questions, explained the various options available, and worked closely with me to develop a personalized treatment plan.
I had never had surgery before and was nervous with the idea of it. However, other family members had also used Dr Beber and highly recommended him. I am 6 months now following a breast augmentation and couldn’t be happier. From the moment I met him and his staff, I was positively greeted, fully informed and he answered all of my questions. Women’s College was a wonderful hospital. The whole experience has been amazing. I love the end results and would recommend Dr Beber to anyone who asks. Thanks again….
