Breast Augmentation

“How soon will I look ‘normal’ after breast implants?” It’s one of the first questions asked during a consultation at Dr. Shaun Parson Plastic Surgery & Skin Center. What most patients are really asking is when will they feel comfortable in a bikini, naked, and generally get completely back to their regular life. There is no set timeframe, and settling into your new “you” is a process. In actuality, most people who get breast augmentation...

Active women might think twice about getting breast implants—after all, are they actually durable? Will you be able to still do your favorite activities, from boxing and yoga to sleeping on your stomach? You may remember when one surgeon tossed breast implants off of a multi-story building to showcase their durability, and now a different surgeon is showing off just how durable this technology is (in a very intimate manner). The famous TikTok-ing surgeon really...

When it comes to breast augmentation, there are two primary “types” of implants: saline and silicone. Both are available at Dr. Shaun Parson Plastic Surgery & Skin Center, along with the “gummy bear implant,” another subtype of silicone breast implant. Silicone breast implants have surged in popularity in the past few years, due in large part to the gummy bear implant that is known for being very realistic to the touch. However, saline breast implants...

Yes, “plastic surgery” is an outdated term and we are all about shifting to “cosmetic surgery” at Dr. Shaun Parson Plastic Surgery & Skin Center. But why did the whole “plastic” concept get started anyway? Most think it’s because many people have long assumed that breast implants are made with plastic—which isn’t technically true (as anyone who has felt breast implants can attest). Breast implants are, and have always been, made with either silicone or...

For years there were just two options for breast implant materials: silicone or saline. That is still technically true, but thanks to revolutionary innovations there are differences in these two types, with gummy bear breast implants being the latest innovation in silicone breast augmentation.

What exactly is a mommy makeover? There’s no singular answer.

At Dr. Shaun Parson Plastic Surgery & Skin Center, we offer all surgeries most often requested in a mommy makeover including liposuction, a tummy tuck, and breast augmentation.

At Dr. Shaun Parson Plastic Surgery & Skin Center, there was a surge of breast augmentations since the onset of the pandemic, which makes perfect sense.

You can find just about anything on TikTok, and there’s a lot to uncover if you follow “SurgeryTok” on the popular platform. At Dr. Shaun Parson Plastic Surgery & Skin Center, we saw that a plastic surgeon recently documented the removal of 46-year-old implants, which were placed in the 1970s. According to the doctor, he was just four years old when the patient had these first-generation silicone implants placed. Today’s silicone implants are considered fifth-generation. Ultimately,...
