Breast augmentation surgery is not a minor procedure. Not only does this surgery require high-level surgical skills and modern techniques, the plastic surgeon must have an “X-factor:” a discerning eye for balance, harmony, and natural beauty. Finding a breast augmentation surgeon who is held in high esteem by his or her peers is an effective way to find a surgeon you can trust and who you are confident will help you achieve your personal aesthetic vision.

We have developed a list of the best breast augmentation surgeons in the U.S.A., who are recognized for their accomplishments in the field of breast augmentation surgery, and who Dr. Teitelbaum has worked with and respects their skills and ability to handle a wide array of cases:


Dr. Caroline Glicksman, New Jersey Plastic Surgeon

Dr. Caroline Glicksman
