Plastic surgery
Breast augmentation
Breast augmentation increases or reshapes breast volume using implants, the patient's own fat, or a combination of both.
Korea Breast Care coordinates a consultation with a registered plastic surgery institution. The choice of implant, technique and surgical plan is made by the surgeon after examining you — not by this service.
What this covers
Scope of this field
Augmentation is a plastic surgery field. Where a breast-health question exists at the same time — a lump, pain or a screening interval that is due — we can also coordinate a separate breast-surgery or radiology assessment so the two are not confused.
- Implant-based augmentation
- Autologous fat grafting
- Composite augmentation (implant plus fat)
- Body-shape and proportion consultation
- Breast asymmetry
Consultation materials
What we help you prepare
A useful consultation depends on complete information. We help you organise these; the institution orders and interprets any tests.
- A clear description of the change you are considering
- Relevant medical history and a current medication list
- Any previous breast surgery records
- Recent breast imaging, if you have had any
- Your questions for the surgeon
Common questions
Frequently asked
- Can I combine augmentation with a breast check?
- Yes. If a breast-health question exists, we coordinate a separate screening or breast-surgery assessment so it is handled properly rather than as an add-on to the cosmetic consultation.
- Who decides the implant and size?
- The surgeon, after examining you and discussing your goals. Korea Breast Care coordinates the consultation and helps you prepare; it does not select implants.
