Breast augmentation is one of the most personal decisions a woman can make, and the reasons behind it are just as individual as the procedure itself. For some women, it’s about restoring volume and shape after pregnancy or significant weight loss has changed the body they felt most comfortable in. For others, it’s simply about achieving a silhouette that finally feels like an accurate reflection of who they are. Whatever’s brought you to this point, if you’re exploring breast augmentation in Phoenix, AZ, Maffi Plastic Surgery has built a reputation for delivering results that feel natural, proportionate, and completely tailored to you.
No two consultations look the same here because no two patients come in with identical goals, anatomy, or starting points. If you’re ready to have that conversation, we’d love to be part of it. Call us at (480) 505-6430 or schedule a consultation online to get started.
Understanding Breast Augmentation Surgery
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure and breast surgery designed to increase breast size, improve symmetry, or restore breast volume. Patients can choose between saline or silicone implants at Maffi Plastic Surgery.
Silicone breast implants, including cohesive silicone gel options, are among the most commonly selected because they closely mimic the feel of natural breast tissue. Saline breast implants offer an alternative that some patients prefer for their adjustability. Saline implants are filled after placement, which may allow for a smaller incision. Your plastic surgeon will help you evaluate which approach aligns with your anatomy, desired breast size, and lifestyle.
Benefits of Breast Augmentation at Maffi Plastic Surgery
The benefits of breast augmentation extend beyond aesthetics for many patients. Improved self-confidence and self-esteem are frequently reported outcomes, and many women describe feeling more comfortable in their clothing and overall appearance. Individual results vary, and outcomes depend on factors including implant type, placement, and your natural breast tissue. Some of the many benefits you can look forward to include:
- Increased breast volume and improved proportions
- Restoration of breast fullness following weight fluctuations or pregnancy
- Improved breast symmetry
- Option to combine breast augmentation with a breast lift or mommy makeover for more comprehensive results
- Natural-looking enhancement
- Personalized treatment plan based on your unique anatomy and aesthetic goals
Good candidates for breast augmentation surgery are in stable overall health, have realistic expectations, and are not currently pregnant or breastfeeding. A thorough consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon is the best way to determine whether this procedure is appropriate for you.

What to Expect During the Breast Augmentation Procedure
The actual procedure begins with anesthesia to keep you comfortable throughout. Your plastic surgeon will then create incisions in discreet locations designed to minimize scarring, such as along the breast crease, around the areola, or in the underarm area. Implant placement may be above or below the chest muscle, depending on your anatomy and implant type.
Recovery following this augmentation surgery typically involves temporary swelling and soreness. Most patients return to light activities within one to two weeks, though individual recovery varies. Final results from breast augmentation may take several months to fully develop as swelling subsides and implants settle.
Potential risks associated with breast implant surgery include capsular contracture, implant rupture, changes in nipple sensation, visible implant edges, and the formation of scar tissue. Your provider will discuss these risks in detail during your consultation so you can make a fully informed decision.

Frequently Asked Questions About Breast Augmentation in Phoenix, AZ
Have more questions? We are here to help. Contact us online or call (480) 505-6430 to speak with our team.
What is the difference between saline implants and silicone implants?
Saline implants are filled with sterile salt water after placement, while silicone gel breast implants are pre-filled with a cohesive silicone gel that closely resembles natural breast tissue. Both are FDA-approved options for breast augmentation in eligible patients. Dr. Maffi will help you determine which implant type best suits your body and goals during a consultation.
Can I combine breast augmentation with other cosmetic procedures?
Yes, many patients choose to combine breast augmentation with a breast lift, tummy tuck, or other cosmetic procedures as part of a mommy makeover. Combining procedures may reduce overall recovery time compared to undergoing each surgery separately. Dr. Maffi will evaluate whether combination surgery is appropriate based on your health and surgical goals.
How long do breast augmentation results typically last?
Breast augmentation results can be long-lasting, though implants are not considered permanent devices. Factors such as weight fluctuations, pregnancy, and natural aging may affect breast appearance over time. Some patients undergo breast revision or breast implant removal at some point after their initial surgery. We will discuss what to expect at your consultation.
What is capsular contracture?
Capsular contracture occurs when scar tissue forms around a breast implant and tightens, potentially causing firmness or discomfort. It is one of the more common complications associated with breast implant surgery. Dr. Maffi will explain preventive measures and discuss your risk factors during your consultation.
What is breast implant removal, and when might it be needed?
Breast implant removal involves surgically removing breast implants, sometimes with or without replacement. Patients may consider removal due to implant rupture, capsular contracture, changes in aesthetic preference, or other medical reasons. A board-certified plastic surgeon can evaluate your situation and recommend the most appropriate course of action.
