Breast Augmentation

A woman may seek breast implants to regain her pre-pregnancy body, correct uneven breasts, or to have a larger cup size. Breast implants can do much to improve self-confidence and can change a woman’s life forever.

​After the surgery, the patient’s breast size may be increased by one or more cup sizes, depending on the specific wishes of the patient. The incisions are usually created in subtle places. Dr. Hsu will be meticulous in working to ensure you experience the least amount of scarring possible.

Breast augmentation is one of the most common types of plastic surgery preferred by women.

This was the most popular surgical cosmetic procedure performed on women nationwide. Due to constant advances in technology and the way breast implant procedures are performed, breast augmentation as a whole is less-invasive and offers patients better post-surgical results.

Saline or Silicone?

When you seek to undergo breast augmentation at Bellavita Center, you will be able to choose between saline and silicone implants.

Saline implants consist of a silicone rubber shell that is inflated with sterile saline (a solution of salt and distilled water) to the desired size.

Silicone implants are filled with a particular amount of silicone gel, which is a silicon-based compound. Saline and silicone implants have different specific benefits. Silicone implants may have a more natural feel, but saline implants are often able to be inserted with a smaller incision and therefore may result in less scarring.

Surgery Details

The placement of an implant is an important part of any breast augmentation procedure. An implant may be placed over or underneath the pectoralis muscles, and the final result of an implant will vary depending upon where they are placed as well as the route of placement, such as through the nipple area or within the breast fold.

Dr. Hsu can talk to you about your particular needs in order to determine the best route of placement as well as whether you should aim for placement below or under the pectoralis muscles in order to achieve the desired result.

Breast Reduction

Large breasts may present a number of problems for a woman, ranging from back pain to difficulty sleeping, recurring skin rashes, or decreased mobility. Fortunately, a breast reduction offers a woman suffering from these issues the opportunity to reduce her breast size through a single surgical procedure


  • During breast reduction surgery, excess fat, skin and glandular tissue are removed from the breasts via a series of incisions. Once the right amount of tissue has been removed, the nipple and areola will be repositioned.

    After a consultation about your particular concerns and completing an evaluation of your body type and what size and shape of breast will be most aesthetically pleasing on your figure, Dr. Hsu can determine exactly how to perform your breast reduction to reach the desired result with minimal scarring. At times, liposuction may also be performed to remove fat from around the armpit area, bringing the patient even more relief.

    Many women who undergo breast reduction surgery find that they already feel better and can experience a great deal of relief after only a few days post-surgery.
