Why Choose a Breast Augmentation
in Santa Rosa?
Factors such as aging, genetics, weight fluctuations, pregnancy, and breastfeeding can lead to changes in the appearance of women's breasts. Women dealing with small, asymmetrical, or drooping breasts may experience a lack of confidence in their physical appearance.
Breast augmentation offers a solution by rejuvenating the breasts, achieving balance, and often boosting self-esteem in many women. It stands as a highly sought-after, secure, and successful method of enhancing one’s figure.

What Is a Santa Rosa Breast Augmentation?
A breast augmentation, often referred to as a "boob job," enhances the size, feel, and appearance of your breasts. Dr. Chernoff will explore the different implant options with you to find the best match for your needs.
It's important to distinguish between a mammoplasty and a mastopexy (breast lift). Unlike a mammoplasty, a mastopexy raises the breasts without changing their size, making it ideal for lifting breasts that have sagged due to breastfeeding, weight loss, or early aging.
Breast Augmentation Procedure in Santa Rosa
Breast augmentation in Santa Rosa is carried out under mild general anesthesia at a certified outpatient surgical center. The operation typically lasts about 2 hours. Dr. Chernoff employs a technique that involves making a discreet incision along the breast's lower fold. He favors this approach as the scar is virtually invisible once it has fully healed. Through this incision, a space is crafted either under the chest muscle or within the breast tissue itself. Dr. Chernoff then positions the implant beneath the muscle for a more natural-looking outcome. The chosen implant, in terms of both size and texture, is carefully placed into this space, and the incision is then meticulously sutured closed.
This method chosen by Dr. Chernoff aims to minimize scarring and ensures the incision line blends seamlessly with the breast's natural contour.

Finding the Perfect Breast Implant for You
The FDA oversees breast implants as they are medical devices designed for insertion under breast tissue or the chest muscle, either to enlarge breasts or replace breast tissue. Various breast implant options provide patients with natural-looking and feeling results.
In the U.S., patients can choose between two FDA-approved breast implant types: saline-filled and silicone gel-filled, both encased in a silicone shell. These implants differ in their size, shell thickness, texture, and shape. Dr. Chernoff will explore these options with you to determine the best implant type to fulfill your desires for breast enhancement.
Getting Ready for Surgery
Before undergoing any surgical procedure, Dr. Chernoff advises all patients to go through our "Patient Guide for Plastic Surgery". This guide outlines crucial considerations for patients contemplating surgery.
