Breast Augmentation In Beverly Hills

Written By: Stuart A. Linder, M.D., F.A.C.S.
Beverly Hills, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Dr. Linder performs hundreds and hundreds of breast augmentations in his Beverly Hills Surgery Center with Board Certified Anesthesiologist each year. Both Allergen (Natrelle saline and silicone) as well as Mentor high profile smooth silicone and saline implants are available by the FDA in the United States of America currently. Both implants have a lifetime guarantee in case of rupture. Detection of rupture saline is usually clinical as the implant will deflate. Silicone implant ruptures can be silent. Therefore, an MRI should be performed every two to three years.
