Asian Breast Augmentation in Los Angeles

Dr. Teitelbaum has a very broad and in-depth experience performing Asian breast augmentation in Los Angeles, on patients from a number of Asian countries. It is for this reason that he was invited to lecture on scars to an all-Asian plastic surgery audience at the Asian Breast Aesthetic Symposium, which took place in Malaysia.

Benefits of Asian Breast Augmentation

A well-done Asian breast augmentation:

Adds volume and curves to your silhouette
Evens out asymmetrical breasts
Helps you restore breast size after pregnancy or weight loss
Enhances your self-confidence
Gives you a fuller breast that looks great in any fashion

Recovery from Asian Breast Augmentation

Prior to surgery and again after, Dr. Teitelbaum and his team will provide a detailed description of what you can expect during the next few days and weeks. You’ll also be given detailed post-procedural guidelines—please follow them accurately to ensure a smooth and comfortable recovery.

You can return home within an hour after surgery, but you’ll need to have someone drive you. You can then drive yourself in about two days and return to work in four. At first, your breasts may seem unnaturally firm, but the swelling and firmness will gradually recede over the next couple of days. You will not have any drains; there are no special bras or bandages.

Will there be scars?

The chances of a bad scar are small. Dr. Teitelbaum takes particular steps during Asian breast augmentation to try to reduce the chances of a poor-quality scar. The incision is made and closed with the greatest care, and the incision is hidden under the crease of the breast so that even a bad scar would be concealed.

During his discussions with Asian plastic surgeons, he has learned that the nipple incision is not often used in Asia because the scar has a tendency to darken, leaving patients with an enlarged and irregular areola, with what can seem like a “smiley face” along the bottom of the areola from the scar.

Some breast augmentation surgeons suggest the scar under the breast, and others the armpit scar. But in warmer climates, where women will wear clothing with exposed arms, the underneath incision is preferred.

Asian Breast Augmentation FAQs

Will my results look natural?

Dr. Teitelbaum favors proportion and balance over maximum size, an approach built to prevent the overly augmented look some patients are concerned about. He will share his honest opinion if a requested size would not suit your frame.

What implant size and profile tend to work best for Asian breast augmentation patients?

Implant size and profile are chosen to suit each patient's frame and tissue type, since many Asian patients have a smaller chest size and tighter breast skin. Dr. Teitelbaum's goal is a proportionate result rather than the largest implant available.

Can I choose between saline and silicone implants?

Yes, Dr. Teitelbaum offers both and will walk through how each looks and feels during the consultation. Silicone gel is often preferred by patients with less natural tissue coverage because it feels softer.

Will breast augmentation affect my ability to breastfeed?

Surgery is typically planned to protect the milk ducts and nerves involved in breastfeeding. Incision and implant placement options that carry the least risk are reviewed individually at the consultation.

How long do breast implants typically last before replacement is needed?

Implants are not considered permanent, and many patients eventually choose replacement after a decade or more. Dr. Teitelbaum monitors patients over time and can advise on timing if replacement becomes necessary.

What are the risks of breast augmentation?

As with any surgery, risks can include infection, bleeding, changes in nipple sensation, and capsular contracture, where scar tissue tightens around the implant. These are reviewed in detail during the consultation so patients can make an informed decision.

How much does Asian breast augmentation cost?

Cost depends on implant type, technique, and whether the procedure is combined with another treatment such as a lift. A personalized quote is provided after an in-person evaluation.

Can breast augmentation be combined with a breast lift?

Yes, for patients with some sagging in addition to a desire for more volume. Breast shape and nipple position determine whether this combination is appropriate, which Dr. Teitelbaum evaluates at the consultation.

Will I lose nipple sensation after surgery?

Temporary changes in sensation are common and typically improve within a few months. Permanent loss is uncommon, and this risk is discussed individually with every patient.

How soon will I see my final results?

Initial swelling subsides over the first few weeks, but breasts continue to settle into their final shape over several months. Follow-up visits track healing throughout this period.
