What is Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation is a cosmetic surgery that increases breast size and improves shape using breast implants or, in some cases, fat transfer. It is commonly requested after pregnancy, breastfeeding, or weight change, and by patients who want more balanced proportions in clothing and swimwear.
During a consultation in Miami, your plastic surgeon reviews implant fill (silicone vs saline), profile, placement (submuscular / under the muscle or subglandular / over the muscle), incision options, recovery expectations, and risks such as capsular contracture.
Who is a candidate for breast implants?
- You are generally healthy and at or near a stable weight
- Your breasts are fully developed
- You want enhancement for yourself, not as a weight-loss substitute
- You understand implants are medical devices that may need replacement over time
- You meet typical FDA age guidance: 18+ for saline, 22+ for silicone (cosmetic use)
Common reasons patients choose breast implants
- Cosmetic enhancement of breast size and shape
- Post-pregnancy or breastfeeding volume loss
- Asymmetry or congenital breast differences
- Changes related to aging or weight fluctuation
- Combination planning with a breast lift or mommy makeover when needed
Breast Implant Options, Placement, and Incisions
CG Cosmetic offers saline and silicone breast implants (including cohesive “gummy bear” gel options). Your surgeon matches fill, profile, and size (often discussed in cc) to your frame and goals.
Silicone vs saline vs gummy bear
- Saline: filled with sterile salt water after placement; adjustable during surgery; firmer feel; rippling may be more noticeable in thin patients.
- Silicone gel: often preferred for a more natural feel; typically requires a slightly larger incision; ongoing monitoring is discussed at consultation.
- Gummy bear (form-stable gel): cohesive silicone that holds shape; useful when shape retention is a priority.
Placement
- Submuscular (under the muscle): implant under the pectoralis muscle; often chosen for coverage in thinner patients.
- Subglandular (over the muscle): implant under the breast tissue and over the muscle; may suit selected anatomies.
Incision options
- Inframammary: in the fold under the breast (common for control and implant access)
- Periareolar: along the edge of the areola
- Transaxillary: through the armpit in selected cases
Your surgeon explains scar tradeoffs, implant brand options available at the practice, and whether a lift should be combined for nipple position or skin laxity.
Getting Ready for Your New Breast Implants
Preparation focuses on implant size, shape/profile, fill material, placement, and incision choice. Bring goal photos if helpful, list medications and medical history, arrange a ride home, and plan help for the first few days. Your coordinator will review pre-op instructions, labs if needed, and what to stop before surgery (such as certain supplements).

Third-party financing may be available after credit approval. Choose a payment plan that fits your budget. For details, see our financing page.
Breast Augmentation Recovery Timeline
Recovery varies by patient, implant placement, and whether other procedures are combined. The outline below is educational. Your surgeon gives personalized instructions.
- Days 1-3: rest, prescribed medication as directed, limited arm motion, support garment as instructed.
- Week 1: walking is encouraged; avoid lifting; swelling and tightness are common.
- About 10-14 days: many patients resume driving when off narcotic pain medicine and comfortable with seatbelt pressure.
- 1-2 weeks: desk work is often possible if your job is not physical.
- 4-6 weeks: progressive return to exercise and heavier lifting after clearance.
- 3-6 months: implants continue to settle (“drop and fluff”); scars mature over a longer period.
Follow all post-op visits. Contact the office for fever, increasing redness, sudden swelling, or other urgent concerns.
Breast Augmentation Cost in Miami
At CG Cosmetic, breast augmentation packages start at $2,500. Miami market quotes elsewhere often run higher depending on surgeon fee, facility, anesthesia, and implant choice. Compare written quotes carefully.

- Surgeon fee
- Facility / operating room
- Anesthesia

Breast Augmentation FAQs
How much does breast augmentation cost?
CG Cosmetic offers accessible pricing for breast implants performed by board-certified plastic surgeons in Miami, Florida.
Breast augmentation in the United States often costs between $4,000 and $8,000 or more, depending on the implant and the full surgical plan. At CG Cosmetic, packages start at $2,500. Extra-large implant plans can cost more because they require additional operative time and expertise.
What is the ideal age for breast augmentation?
Many patients choose breast implants in their 20s and 30s, when health and goals are clear. For cosmetic silicone implants, patients are typically at least 22 years old; saline implants are generally considered from age 18 under FDA guidance. Older patients can be candidates when medically appropriate. Age alone is less important than overall health and expectations.
What is implant placement in breast augmentation?
In breast augmentation, implant placement is about where the surgeon puts the breast implants during the surgery. There are two common options for implant placement in breast augmentation:
- In subglandular placement, the surgeon positions the implants between the breast tissue and chest muscle.
- In submuscular placement, the surgeon places the implants beneath the chest muscle.
The choice of implant placement depends on various factors, including the patient's body type, desired outcome, and the surgeon's recommendations.
When you meet the surgeon for the first time, they will talk about where to put the implants and help you choose the best option for the results you want.
How long after a breast surgery can I drive again?
The majority of women can resume driving 10 to 14 days after surgery.
How long before I can return to work?
It all depends on your work environment. After your surgery, make sure not to lift heavy things or reach for at least two weeks to help your recovery.
If your job requires you to do these activities, the time it takes to return to work may be different.
Is breast augmentation reversible?
It is possible to reverse breast augmentation. When your breast implants have settled, taking them out may cause your skin to become loose or saggy. If you no longer want breast implants, you may consider a breast lift or other corrective surgery.
Is breast augmentation painful?
You will not feel any pain during the procedure since you will be under general anesthesia. After the surgery, you will feel discomfort and pain due to the swelling, but your surgeon will prescribe painkillers. In the first week, your chest may feel tight because of the swelling and the new implants taking up space. This will subside as your body heals and adjusts to the implants.
How do I determine the right cup size for me?
We choose the right implant size for breast augmentation based on your current breast size, body proportions, and cosmetic goals. Our doctors will help you choose the best cup size for your body at CG Cosmetic. They will think about your breast size and shape and discuss different ways to enhance your breasts.
We want to make sure you're happy and comfortable with your chosen cup size before we do the surgery. Your satisfaction is the most important thing for us.
How many types of breast implants are there?
There are two types of fill for breast implants: silicone and saline. Feedback from some patients indicates silicone implants feel most realistic.
- Silicone implants are ready before surgery, so surgeons do not need to fill them like saline implants. As a result, they require a slightly larger incision.
- Saline-filled implants are filled with sterile salt water after placement, can be round or shaped, and ruptures are usually easier to detect. CG Cosmetic Surgery uses smooth-shell implants and has not used textured implants.
What is a gummy bear breast implant?
Gummy bear breast implants are the latest option available for the replacement of silicone breast augmentation . A friendly nickname for gel-based implants, are better at retaining their shape compared to other types made from silicone.
The FDA approved a new kind of breast implant called the Mentor MemoryShape CPG. These implants, often called "gummy bear" implants, have been used worldwide for ten years. With this approval, more women now have another option for breast augmentation and reconstruction, as everyone's needs are different.
How long do Breast Implants last?
Many women ask the plastic surgeon if breast implants last forever, but the answer is no. Implants wear out over time and need replacement. However, between 10 and 20 years after the intervention, most implants are likely to rupture, although some can last longer.
Is it possible to breastfeed after breast implants?
The question: Is it safe to breastfeed after a breast augmentation? The short answer is yes, but there are things to consider.
What is capsular contracture?
Capsular contracture is a potential problem that may happen. It happens when scar tissue forms around the breast implants, causing the breasts to feel firm and possibly become misshapen.
Capsular contracture can make you feel uncomfortable, and it might need another surgery to fix. At CG Cosmetic, our experienced surgeons do their best to lower the chance of capsular contracture. They will talk about it during your consultation with them.
If you notice any concerning changes about your breasts after the surgical procedure, make sure to contact us for evaluation and guidance
How can breast implants help correct chest wall asymmetry?
Breast implants can be used to equalize the appearance of the breasts when there's a noticeable size or shape difference due to chest wall asymmetry. By selecting the right size, type, and placement of the implant for each breast, the surgeon can help achieve a more balanced and symmetrical look.

Textured Breast Implants
Due to the rising health concern of textured breast implants, we are making an official statement with American Board of Plastic Surgeon Dr. Jacob Freiman - CG Cosmetic Surgery has never used textured implants. Watch Dr. Freiman's Video
The Allergan Textured Implant Controversy
In 2019, the FDA demanded a full recall of Allergan’s BIOCELL textured breast implants after they were linked to a rare form of blood cancer known as Breast Implant-Associated Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (BIA-ALCL). Though the recall occurred, many of these implants had already been used in breast augmentation procedures across the country, raising serious concerns for patients.
What You Should Know About Breast Implant Risks
Textured breast implants, such as Allergan’s BIOCELL models, were once popular for their reduced risk of migration and capsular contracture. However, studies revealed that the textured surface could lead to scar tissue formation, creating a breeding ground for cancerous cells. Women with these implants, particularly Allergan’s, face a significantly higher risk of developing BIA-ALCL, a type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
While not every woman with these implants will develop cancer, those who do may experience symptoms like breast swelling, lumps, or pain. Medical monitoring is crucial, as catching the disease early greatly improves outcomes.
