New Jersey Breast Augmentation
Women have dozens of reasons for considering breast augmentation surgery to enhance their breast size and shape. Many women want the sexy look and increased self-confidence that a fuller profile can provide. Others seek to regain breast volume lost during pregnancy or nursing, equalize breast volume to ensure symmetry, or reconstruct breast tissue following mastectomy or injury. Whatever your reason, breast enhancement surgery provides an exciting opportunity to achieve the look you've always desired.
When considering breast enlargement, keep in mind that not all New Jersey cosmetic surgeons are the same. Many claim to be "board certified," but this is often misleading. Dr. Sorokin has been certified by the cosmetic surgeon's gold standard: the American Board of Plastic Surgery. In addition, Dr. Sorokin is committed to providing you a thorough consultation and detailed information about your procedure, guiding you through the entire process while using the latest techniques and technology to maximize your comfort and ensure that you get back to enjoying life as quickly as possible.
This site provides you with a good starting point for breast augmentation topics. Like most women, you may have questions not answered here, and we encourage you to call 856-797-0202 to schedule an appointment with New Jersey cosmetic surgeon Dr. Sorokin, a Board-certified plastic surgery specialist at Delaware Valley Plastic Surgery. The office is just a short drive from many towns, including Mt. Laurel, Cherry Hill, Berlin, and Collingswood, New Jersey.

The Breast Augmentation Procedure
Breast enlargement involves making a small incision to insert an implant into the breast area. Because no two breasts are alike, and no two women want the exact same results, Dr. Sorokin will tailor the surgical procedure to your unique needs. Dr. Sorokin performs the procedure, which typically lasts between one to two hours, on an outpatient basis at a local hospital while the patient is under general anesthesia and asleep. We encourage you to learn more about the techniques used during breast augmentation surgery in New Jersey.
Breast Implant Options
Size isn't everything. When choosing an implant, you should consider the type of material contained within the implant, the texture of the outer covering of the implant, and the implant shape. Dr. Sorokin believes that it's important for you to achieve a natural look that integrates the implant with your overall body shape, and custom-tailors each procedure to achieve this result. While many New Jersey and Philadelphia cosmetic surgeons use the same type of implants (in different sizes) for every patient, Dr. Sorokin chooses implants for each patient based on their individual anatomy and postoperative desires. A good plastic surgeon can explain why a particular implant will suit you best. Why limit yourself to a surgeon who uses only one type of implant and gives cookie-cutter results? Learn more about the choices available on our Implant Options page.
Silicone Breast Implant Safety
Most women have heard about potential problems with silicone implants in the past, but many are confused about the availability and use of this type of implant now. In November 2006, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) re-approved silicone breast implants for all types of breast procedures. Prior to this announcement, Dr. Sorokin had been using these breast implants in New Jersey as part of an FDA-sanctioned study, giving him the experience needed to expertly handle these implants as they return to general use. Read the latest information on the safety of silicone implants.
Risks and Recovery Following Breast Augmentation
The recovery process following breast enhancement surgery usually is short, with most women able to return to their normal routine within a few days and able to enjoy their new look without restrictions or medical support in a matter of weeks. As with any surgical procedure, complications may occur. Most patients do not have complications, and any complications that do arise generally can be managed successfully. Rest assured that Dr. Sorokin is one of only a handful of New Jersey cosmetic surgeons who participate in CosmetAssure, a supplemental insurance program that covers expenses incurred as a result of certain medical complications. CosmetAssure, which minimizes a patient's out-of-pocket expenses and allows you to focus on recovery, offers its coverage only to highly-trained physicians like Dr. Sorokin who are certified by The American Board of Plastic Surgery and members of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS).
