Abstract：
:Breast enhancement through augmentation improves not only the woman's physical appearance but also contributes to her psychologic well-being. With the current emphasis placed on women's breasts in the media, it is not surprising that small-breasted women feel inadequate. Recent US Federal Drug Administration approval of saline implants has given them a new image, and more women are seeking breast augmentation. (27) As long as the woman understands that this operation has associated risks, a physician-patient relationship may be developed resulting in many years of happiness and increased self-esteem. The shape, contour, and size of a woman's breasts are permanently altered by augmentation mammaplasty and breast reduction. Although each case is unique, the outcome of each procedure should result in a satisfied patient.
