Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation is one of the most requested cosmetic procedures in New Orleans and around the world. Also called mammaplasty, breast augmentation can enhance the size, shape and beauty of a woman's breasts.

Women desire breast augmentation for a variety of reasons. Some have lost breast fullness after childbearing, breastfeeding or dieting. Others want a more voluptuous fit in clothing. And for many women, a more prominent breast curve can bring proportional balance and a new sensuality to the overall shape of their body.

During your initial consultation at either our Mandeville or Slidell, Louisiana clinic, you can talk with Dr. Cooper about the changes you hope to achieve, and she will work with you to determine which approaches can be taken to accomplish your cosmetic goals. Dr. Cooper likes to schedule a whole hour to meet each new patient. This provides a friendly, unhurried atmosphere for her to provide you with all the information you will need to make educated decisions about breast augmentation.

Some of the topics that you and Dr. Cooper will discuss are possible incision locations, the placement of implants above or below the muscle, implant shape, silicone versus saline implants and the risks and benefits associated with each option. With this information you and Dr. Cooper will be able to determine which procedural strategies will best meet your expectations.

Two weeks prior to your breast augmentation you will meet with Dr. Cooper again to discuss all pre-operative and post-operative instructions, and to confirm the procedural plans previously determined.

The procedure itself is performed in an outpatient facility, so you may leave shortly after your procedure. A family member or friend will need to drive you home and provide assistance during the first 24 to 48 hours that follow your augmentation. You and your care giver will both be provided with Dr. Cooper's cell phone number for any concerns or questions.

Breasts are the most feminine contour on a woman's body. An ideal breast contour will bring beauty to the shape of the whole body-and work wonders for our self-confidence. Come see why so many New Orleans area women trust Dr. Cooper to achieve their most beautifully enhanced self. To request your consultation, contact us today.
