Get the Breasts You've Always Wanted, and Recover Fast
Breast augmentation, also called breast enlargement, enhances the size, fullness, and shape of breasts with breast implants.
For patients who’d like to restore volume after weight loss, pregnancy, or aging, a breast augmentation in Northern Virginia and Alexandria can give you a perfectly balanced figure*. This procedure is also an excellent option for women who’d like to enlarge a naturally smaller chest. Patients often enjoy boosted confidence, the ability to wear more clothing styles, and a general increase in self-esteem after breast enlargement. Learn how you can transform your look with this popular procedure, get the figure you’ve always wanted, and get back to normal quickly and safely with Rapid Recovery.
What is Rapid Recovery Breast Augmentation?
Rapid Recovery is a streamlined breast augmentation recovery technique that typically allows patients to resume normal activities within 24 to 48 hours post-surgery—significantly quicker than the usual 7-14 day recovery period. This approach eliminates the need for narcotics, pain pumps, or specialized bras.
Our method focuses on gentle rest, over-the-counter pain relief, and movement to ease muscle adjustment and reduce discomfort. Detailed instructions are provided to manage post-surgical care efficiently, including incision care, optimal times for rest, and guidelines for eating and medication.
A key aspect of Rapid Recovery is proactive muscle management, which helps prevent prolonged discomfort and supports a faster return to daily routines. Many patients feel well enough to dine out the evening after surgery, and we encourage activities like raising your arms and going out the day after surgery to promote quicker healing.
Are You Qualified for a Breast Augmentation?
Deciding on an ideal shape and size is very difficult while the breasts are still developing. If you are a younger woman thinking about getting breast augmentation, waiting until your breasts have finished growing will help you and Dr. Desman decide which approach is best for you.
Candidates for breast augmentation should be:
- Over 18
- Unhappy with the size or shape of their breasts
- Live in Alexandria or Northern Virginia, or be willing to travel
Ideal patients should also be:
- In good health
- Within their target body weight
- Not pregnant.
