My practice is quite different from those of the doctors of my youth. Growing up, I remember having no idea about my doctor’s personal life. I didn’t know where he lived, or how many kids he had, or if he liked to play golf on the weekends. Sometimes, I might see a picture of…

Recovery is an integral component of any surgical procedure, including a breast augmentation. Breast implants must be placed through an incision, typically within the inframammary fold or crease beneath your breasts.
