Wide Variety of Silicone Implants
Breast surgery has been a cornerstone of my practice for almost thirty years. I have considerable experience with the breast augmentation procedure, and one of the things that I have noticed with potential patients is that they don’t always understand the intricacies that go into choosing the right implant.
