Breast Augmentation New York (Augmentation Mammoplasty)
Following pregnancy and weight change, many women have aesthetic and functional concerns regarding their chest region. Breast augmentation surgery makes use of implants, to enhance the size, shape, and position of the breasts, for a youthful appearance.
What Is Breast Augmentation?
Breast Augmentation is also known as augmentation mammoplasty or boob job. For some women, breast augmentation is a way to feel more confident. For others, it’s part of rebuilding the breast due to various conditions. Breast augmentation might help you enhance your appearance if you think your breasts are small or asymmetrical. It can also adjust for a reduction in your breast size after pregnancy or massive weight loss. It can correct breast asymmetry and improve your self-confidence.
The process involves placing saline or silicone implants to achieve the desired outcome. In an initial consultation, Dr. Singh will discuss and recommend the best method for everyone. As a highly customizable procedure, it mainly depends on their unique anatomy and goals.
What Can a Boob Job Address
Women undergo for this surgery for a variety of reasons, deeply rooted in personal, aesthetic, and sometimes medical concerns. One of the most common reasons is wanting a more proportionate body. Some may feel that their breasts are too small in comparison to their overall body frame. This disproportion can skew self-perception and affect confidence levels.
Asymmetry is another major concern — it’s not uncommon for breasts to differ in size or shape from each other. This may lead to difficulty finding fitting clothes and dissatisfaction with body image. Pregnancy and weight loss are other pivotal moments when a woman may consider augmentation. Both can lead to a loss of volume and a longing to reclaim a more youthful silhouette.
This procedure presents a solution, utilizing various implants and techniques. Whether achieving a specific size, correcting asymmetry, or reconstructing the area, Dr. Singh provides natural-looking, desired results.
Types of Breast Augmentations
Dr. Singh makes use of two approaches to the surgery: inserting implants and transferring fat. Between these methods, he can address each patient’s unique needs and goals. It also allows him to provide dramatic transformations or subtle enhancements.
Implants
This is a popular choice for women who wish to significantly improve their breast volume and symmetry. Dr. Singh offers a diverse selection, allowing him to address various concerns. These can include asymmetry, deformation, or volume loss post-pregnancy. This approach is especially advantageous for those desiring a noticeable alteration.
Choosing implants over fat transfer can provide more predictable and immediate results. During an initial consultation, Dr. Singh will help determine and recommend the ideal choice for your requirements.
Fat Transfer
Grafting yields a more organic way to improve breast size and shape. Dr. Singh harvests the patient’s own fat (from areas like the abdomen and thighs), and then relocates it to add volume.
Fat transfer is an ideal choice for slight enhancement or those wanting to naturally rectify minor imbalances. Furthermore, there is no risk of allergic reactions, rejection, or implant-related complications like rupture or capsular contracture.
How Dr. Singh Performs Breast Augmentation
His approach to breast augmentation surgery is meticulous, starting with a personalized plan after a one-on-one consultation. In which, he discusses the best approach and its outcomes. For those wanting implants, he helps select the type (silicone or saline), shape, and size.
Beginning the surgery, he marks the treatment areas and creates incisions. He discreetly hides them under the breast, around areola, or under the arm. This prevents scarring from being visible and allows patients to easily hide them with underwear and swimwear.
With fat grafting, Dr. Singh begins with liposuction to gently extract adipose from areas with excess deposits. These include the abdomen and thighs. He then purifies and injects into the breasts to add form and volume in a natural-looking manner. It also contours the areas from where he harvested fat, offering a dual benefit.
Breast Augmentation Recovery
Though it generally subsides within a few weeks, most individuals experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort immediately after surgery. Patients can manage these side effects with prescribed pain-relief medication.
Post-op, the first couple of weeks are vital for rest and minimal movement, to ensure a smooth recovery. Dr. Singh recommends wearing a supportive surgical bra. This, or a compression garment, will help reduce swelling, while supporting the newly formed contours. He also emphasizes the importance of following his at-home care instructions.
After about 2 to 3 weeks, many can return to work and light exercise. By around week 6, most patients can return to more strenuous activities, like heavy lifting. They can notice their final results after a few months.
What Makes a Good Boob Job Candidate
Typically, these individuals are looking for improvement, not perfection. A good candidate for breast augmentation is someone who mainly seeks to simply enhance size, shape, or symmetry. They also have realistic expectations about the potential outcome.
Ideally, they are in good physical health and are non-smokers. Active smoking can increase the risk of complication and delay the healing process.

Breast Augmentation FAQ
How long until I can exercise again?
After the surgery, Dr. Singh advises patients to wait at least 2-3 weeks before engaging in low-impact exercises. They should also wait about 1-2 months before heavy lifting. When beginning to exercise again, he emphasizes slowly reintroducing routines. Adhering to his recovery guidelines will usher in the best outcome and lower the risk of complication.
What’s better for a boob job: fat transfer or implants?
During a consultation, Dr. Singh can help decide which option aligns most with your expectations and body type. The choice depends on your specific goals, anatomy, and preferences.
Fat transfer offers a more natural-looking appearance and the added benefit of reducing unwanted adipose from other areas. However, it typically provides more subtle improvements and may require multiple sessions. On the other hand, implants can achieve more significant and immediate results. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes, to properly diverse aesthetic requirements.
Will breast surgery give me visible scars?
Scarring is inevitable with any surgery, but Dr. Singh’s approach prioritizes placing incisions in less noticeable areas, using various techniques. He strives to lower their visibility, allowing patients to easily hide them beneath underwear and swimwear.
Over time, scars tend to fade significantly, but may not disappear completely. With proper post-operative care and following Dr. Singh’s advice, patients can minimize their visibility.
Will I need a follow-up appointment?
Dr. Singh will schedule your first check-up shortly after surgery to monitor your healing. He will be able to remove sutures, if necessary, and address any concerns. Some patients may require additional appointments to ensure proper healing and to assess the long-term results.
Can I pair other procedures with my breast augmentation?
Patients commonly undergo multiple surgeries at the same time, to rejuvenate their entire body and improve harmony between features. Common pairings include breast lifting and liposuction. One procedure, the “mommy makeover,” combines multiple treatments, addressing concerns along the legs, buttocks, abdomen, chest, neck, and arms. This makes it a popular choice among women experiencing dissatisfaction with their bodies, following pregnancy.
