Breast augmentation is one of the most popular cosmetic breast procedures for women who want to enhance the size, shape, or symmetry of their breasts. For women in Boca Raton and throughout South Florida, the decision to undergo breast augmentation is highly personal—and there is no single reason that applies to every patient.
At David Bogue, MD Plastic Surgery, we believe the best breast augmentation results begin with understanding each woman’s individual goals, lifestyle, and proportions. Whether you’re interested in a subtle enhancement or a more noticeable change, breast augmentation can be customized to create a look that feels natural and balanced for your body.
Here are three of the most common reasons women consider breast augmentation.
1. Restoring Breast Volume After Pregnancy, Breastfeeding, or Weight Loss
Pregnancy and breastfeeding can create significant changes in the breasts. Many women notice that their breasts lose fullness, particularly in the upper portion, after having children. Significant weight loss can produce similar changes.
For some women, breast augmentation can restore volume that was lost over time and help clothing and swimsuits fit differently. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons notes that breast augmentation can restore breast volume following pregnancy or weight reduction and can also improve breast shape and natural asymmetry.
Depending on the amount of loose skin and degree of sagging, some women may benefit from combining breast augmentation with a breast lift (mastopexy). Breast implants add volume, but they do not by themselves correct significant breast drooping.
At David Bogue, MD Plastic Surgery, breast enhancement is approached as more than simply increasing cup size. The goal is to create proportions that complement your overall figure.
2. Improving Breast Shape, Size, or Symmetry
Not every woman seeking breast augmentation wants dramatically larger breasts. For many patients, the goal is simply to feel more proportionate and confident.
Women may consider breast augmentation because they feel their breasts are naturally small, lack upper-pole fullness, or are noticeably different in size or shape. Breast augmentation can increase breast fullness and projection while improving the balance between the breasts and the rest of the body.
Breast asymmetry is also common. While perfect symmetry isn’t realistic, augmentation can sometimes improve differences in breast volume and create a more balanced appearance.
The right implant size and shape depend on several factors, including your existing breast tissue, chest dimensions, body proportions, skin quality, and desired appearance. Dr. Bogue offers saline, silicone, and form-stable “gummy bear” implants and works with patients to determine which option best fits their goals.
For women considering breast augmentation in Boca Raton, an individualized consultation is an important opportunity to discuss whether you prefer a subtle, natural enhancement or a fuller, more noticeable result.
3. Feeling More Confident in Clothing and in Your Own Body
For many women, breast augmentation isn’t about meeting someone else’s definition of beauty. It’s about feeling more comfortable with their own body.
Some women find that certain clothes, bras, swimsuits, or evening wear fit differently when they have more breast volume. Others simply want their breasts to better match the proportions of their hips, waist, and shoulders.
The American Society of Plastic Surgeons recognizes improved self-image and self-confidence among the potential benefits women may seek from breast augmentation.
At David Bogue, MD Plastic Surgery, the focus is on creating results that align with each patient’s personal goals. Some women want a very natural appearance, while others prefer more fullness and projection. There is no universally “right” breast size—the right result is the one that makes sense for you.
Is Breast Augmentation Right for You?
The best candidates for breast augmentation are women who are physically healthy, have realistic expectations, and are considering surgery for their own reasons.
During a consultation, you can discuss:
- Your desired breast size and shape
- Implant options and placement
- Whether a breast lift may be appropriate
- Breast asymmetry
- Your lifestyle and activity level
- Recovery expectations
- Potential risks and complications
- Which implant fits your goals
Breast augmentation is an elective surgical procedure, and it is important to understand both its potential benefits and risks before making a decision.

Frequently Asked Questions About Breast Augmentation
How do I know what implant size is right for me?
There is no single ideal implant size. Implant selection should take into account your chest anatomy, existing breast tissue, proportions, and desired result. Dr. Bogue can help you evaluate different options during your consultation with the help of the Mentor Sizing System and the Arbrea 3D simulator software.
Can breast augmentation fix sagging breasts?
Breast augmentation can add volume, but significant sagging may require a breast lift. In some cases, augmentation and a lift can be performed together.
Can breast augmentation make breasts more symmetrical?
Augmentation can improve differences in breast volume and shape, although some degree of natural asymmetry is normal and may remain after surgery.
