Dr. Laurie A. Casas wants to explain important facts about breast augmentation, absolute and relative cup sizes and the options you have. It is critical to evaluate all the factors in this decision.
Question:
My breasts have always made me self-conscious. They’re much smaller than the rest of my frame. How do I decide which implant size would be best for me? I don’t want to end up with overly large breasts, or breasts which are out of proportion to the rest of my body.
Answer:
Many women are under the […]
Question: I tend to go braless a lot when wearing tank tops and camisoles, especially in the summer. Could this have long term negative effects on my breast shape? Do you have any advice for how to help prevent breast sagging or help prevent worsening of my sagging breasts?
Answer: If your breasts are not properly supported, your breast ligaments can over stretch, which can make your breasts droop or sag. If your breasts are not supported, gravity can help to make breasts, especially heavy/large ones, sag or droop. It is important even for small breasted women to wear proper fitting […]
Dr. Laurie Casas is quoted in an article posted by Elle Magazine regarding Breast Enhancement, titled “Terms of Endowment”.Overall Elle Magazine highlights the fact that Breast Implants, contrary to some popular belief, do not last forever! The choice to get implants does infact mean that your new implants “won’t be your last pair”. Although this has not been affecting the popularity of breast enhancement surgery, one must simple ensure that patients are aware of the ‘maintence’ involved with this procedure.
Contracture can happen at any time, “starting from day one to year 40,” says Laurie A. Casas, MD, an associate professor […]
Question: Is the Promotion “The Breast Year Ever” on 97.9 FM legitimate?

The breast implants’ approval by the FDA was not fine-print free. Women must weigh the impact, and costs, of follow-up care.
By Melissa Healy, Times Staff Writer November 27, 2006
The days before Thanksgiving are typically quiet in the offices of plastic surgeons. But a long-awaited decision to approve silicone breast implants for women older than 22 prompted a flurry of excited calls and inquiries last week from prospective patients.
The giddy welcome may not last. Even as the two U.S. manufacturers of silicone implants gleefully projected a surge in demand for their products, physicians began poring over the fine print of […]
Recently, a myth started in the lay press that breast augmentation using your own fat could be performed during your lunchtime. Unfortunately, as appealing as this may be it is not true. The procedure of using your own fat that is removed from your body and then injected into your breasts may be a safe procedure however as a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon I would recommend that you wait until the clinical research is complete. As a member of our two major Societies, ASPS (American Society of Plastic surgery) and ASAPS (American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery) we only want […]
There is no proven association between Breast enhancement surgery and suicide, despite recent reports that women in a Swedish study who had breast augmentation surgery appeared to have a higher incidence of suicide than the general population.
Many published scientific reports do not support this confusing conclusion. In fact, in 2006 in the USA over 300,000 women chose to have breast enhancement surgery according to ASPS and ASAPS. And according to published data, women who have had Breast Augmentation surgery are extremely satisfied. So this Swedish study actually contradicts the published data that shows women who have had breast enhancement have […]
Question: What causes saggy breasts and will breast feeding increase my chances of sagginess? If a breast lift is deemed necessary will my cup size change? What is typical recovery time for a breast lift?
Answer: There are two main factors that cause breasts to sage; one being changes in breast size and the other is poor skin elasticity! Changes in breast size most often occurs when you lose weight or during the pregnancy and nursing period. Keep in mind that deciding to breast feed will also increase your chance for sagginess, more so if you have poor skin elasticity.
If you […]
