Breast augmentation currently ranks as the most popular procedure performed by a cosmetic surgeon in the US. At the time of initial consultation, the surgeon will educate the patient about all aspects of the procedure, and may also present breast augmentation before and after photographs.
The first goal of the surgeon will be to help the patient make an informed decision. Double board certified cosmetic and oral & maxillofacial surgeon Dr. Landon McLain provides breast augmentation to patients in Huntsville, Madison, Florence, Decatur, Scottsboro, Cullman, Athens, Alabama, and surrounding communities.
What are Breast Augmentation Before and After Images?
Before and after images in case of breast augmentation refer to a set of pictures belonging to a previous patient who has undergone the same surgery with a satisfactory outcome. The set includes images taken prior to the surgery and after the surgery at a stage when the bruising and swelling has completely disappeared and full effects of the procedure are visible.
The cosmetic surgeon will take care to ensure that the pictures are obtained with the express consent of the patient and presented before new patients in an appropriate and discreet manner. The identity of the patient may be kept undisclosed as required. The only purpose of the surgeon in this exercise is to use these photos as a visual tool to explain new patients about the potential effectiveness of breast augmentation.
Advantages
Breast augmentation is a highly customizable procedure that will require active involvement of the patient during the surgical planning. The type and size of implants, the location and size of incisions and placement position of implants in the breast tissue are some of the decisions for which the patient’s inputs should be taken.
The patient can make these choices in a much better way when she has access to breast augmentation plastic surgery before and after photos. Some patients may require breast augmentation with breast lift surgery, or another procedure such as tummy tuck. Surgeons can explain all options more effectively when they make use of before and after photos.
Being Realistic
It is natural for a patient to feel excited about the prospects of more voluptuous and attractive breasts, but she should have realistic and reasonable expectations at the outset. This will allow her to appreciate the results in a better way and increase her satisfaction levels.
Therefore, experienced surgeons will encourage patients to review as many breast augmentation ‘before and after’ photos as possible, and then make a final decision. Double board certified cosmetic and oral & maxillofacial surgeon Dr. McLain receives patients from Huntsville, Madison, Florence, Decatur, Scottsboro, Cullman, Athens, Alabama, and nearby areas for breast augmentation.
Online Photos
The surgeon has an option to provide breast augmentation before and after photos on their practice website under a dedicated Photo Gallery section. New patients can conveniently access the photos online and then choose whether to seek a personal breast augmentation consultation with the surgeon. Surgeons who are active on social media may also disseminate the photos via their social media networks.
Website pictures have become a Godsend to this industry. What industry has not been affected by digital technology? Almost none. Now with these pictures patients can apply almost exactly what they see on the screen to their breasts and realize the benefits of breast augmentation. On top of this, they can do this from the privacy and tranquility of their own homes.
This means the anxiety and uncomfortable feeling that patients used to get has been mitigated. This is because patients now who have done their due diligence, which is not hard since these photos are easy to find and look at, are in a much better state of mind. This is better for the patient for sure and even Dr. McLain and his staff.
