Precision, Proportion, and Privacy

In Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, and Palm Beach Gardens, the aesthetic standard is balanced. You want to fill out your resort wear or an evening gown without looking like you just walked out of a cosmetic surgery clinic. For most of the women we see, breast augmentation is rarely just about size. It is about architectural harmony. It is about restoring what was lost or creating the balance that nature simply forgot.

You might feel your profile has deflated after children. You might be dealing with excess skin or a loss of upper fullness that no amount of chest presses can fix. Or perhaps you never developed the curves to match your hips. At The Optimization Centre, we don’t view breast augmentation surgery as a way to fix a "flaw." We view it as a structural refinement. Aesthetic plastic surgery should not be a transformation of who you are; it should be a strategic alignment of your body with your self-image.

Our practice serves the discerning patient—the one who values anatomical precision, privacy, and a result that moves when she moves. Under the guidance of our team, including board-certified plastic surgeons, we take great pride in delivering results that whisper. We prioritize natural-looking results over volume. We value proportion over trends. This is your aesthetic journey, and it begins with a conversation about what "optimization" actually means for you.

What is Breast Augmentation?

Technically, breast augmentation (augmentation mammoplasty) is a surgical procedure to increase the volume and improve the shape of the breasts. But if you look around South Florida, you will see that the execution varies wildly. At The Optimization Centre, our method is distinct. We don't just insert breast implants. We engineer a better chest wall.

The Biology of the Breast

To understand our approach, one must understand the anatomy. The female breast sits atop the chest wall muscle (pectoralis major). Traditional techniques often involve placing breast implants strictly under this muscle. While this provides coverage, it can lead to "animation deformity"—a phenomenon where the implants distort or jump when you flex your chest muscles during exercise.

The Sub-Fascial Difference

We do things differently. We specialize in Sub-Fascial Placement. Instead of burying the implant deep under the muscle or leaving it dangerously shallow under the skin, we utilize the sub-fascial plane. This is a robust layer of connective tissue between the chest wall muscle and the breast tissue itself.

Additional Reading

This technique is the "Goldilocks" zone of breast surgery. You get the soft coverage of a dual-plane procedure, but we don't have to cut or detach your muscle. Your strength remains intact. Your result looks authentic. Whether you are serving an ace or reaching for a glass of water, your chest looks like it belongs to you. By respecting the integrity of the anatomy, we achieve a youthful appearance that relies on biology, not just silicone.

What are the benefits of Breast Augmentation?

By moving beyond outdated techniques and embracing advanced techniques, we offer a procedure that respects your biology and fits seamlessly into your lifestyle.

Elimination of Animation Deformity:

Because we often avoid cutting the pectoral muscle, your breasts remain soft and stationary even when you flex, allowing for a more natural range of motion and appearance.

Internal Support System:

We often utilize an internal absorbable mesh bra, known as Galaflex, to support the implant. This acts as an internal scaffold, preventing the implant from bottoming out over time and maintaining long-term projection.

Customizable Volume:

With Dr. Hilton Becker’s patented Adjustable Breast Implant, we can fine-tune your breast size post-surgery. This allows us to correct even minor asymmetries to ensure a perfectly balanced result.

Minimal Scarring:

Our precise incision techniques, often hidden in the inframammary fold, result in minimal scarring that is easily concealed in even the smallest swimwear.

Comprehensive Enhancement:

For patients seeking a full spectrum of improvement, this procedure can be combined with a breast lift surgery to address sagging skin and position the nipple-areola complex at a more youthful height.

Am I a candidate for Breast Augmentation?

The Ideal Candidate

This procedure is best for healthy women who want to correct asymmetry, restore lost breast volume, or balance their silhouette. You are likely a good match if you’ve lost volume due to weight loss, pregnancy, or aging. You are a good match if your hips are significantly wider than your chest and you want to even the score. We look for patients with realistic expectations. Surgery can improve your body shape, but it won't fix your life.

Additional Reading

During your initial consultation, we dig deep. We review your medical history, your lifestyle, and your aesthetic goals. Whether you want a subtle change or a significant boost, we will determine if breast implants alone—or a combination of procedures—will get you the desired result.

Safety Considerations

Patient safety is our primary filter. You may need to postpone surgery if you are currently breastfeeding or plan to become pregnant in the near future, as pregnancy can alter your surgical results. We also require that any untreated breast health issues be resolved prior to scheduling your procedure. As a cosmetic surgeon team dedicated to reconstructive surgery principles, we prioritize your long-term health above all else.

Your Breast Augmentation Treatment

The WAMI Advantage

We value your time and comfort, which is why we offer the WAMI (Wide Awake Minimally Invasive) technique for select candidates. Unlike traditional cosmetic procedures that rely on heavy general anesthesia, WAMI uses local anesthesia with IV sedation. You remain comfortable and relaxed throughout the surgery, but you avoid the heavy "hangover," nausea, and prolonged grogginess often associated with deeper sedation.

Surgical Precision and the "No-Touch" Technique

Our doctors utilize a specialized "no-touch" funnel to guide the breast implants into the sub-facial pocket. This method significantly reduces the risk of contamination—a key factor in preventing capsular contracture (scar tissue hardening)—and minimizes trauma to the skin incision.

Additional Reading

Because you are not heavily sedated, we can sit you upright during the procedure to verify symmetry and position in real-time. This intra-operative assessment allows us to see how gravity affects the breast shape immediately, rather than guessing how it will look once you are standing. This attention to detail is critical for achieving the desired result and explains why our practice attracts patients from across South Florida.

Recovery after Breast Augmentation

Our use of subfacial placement and WAMI anesthesia significantly reduces recovery time compared to traditional submuscular placement. We understand that our Palm Beach patients lead active, busy lives and cannot afford weeks of bed rest.

Timeline for Healing

Most patients feel "restaurant-ready" within 3 to 5 days. You can likely attend social engagements in comfortable clothing within a week. While you will need to avoid heavy lifting, you can resume light cardio, such as walking, almost immediately. We typically clear patients for full exercise, including golf and tennis, after 4 weeks.

Managing Comfort

You will wear a surgical bra for the first few weeks to ensure the implants settle in their optimal position. Because we spare the muscle from significant trauma, post-operative pain is often manageable with over-the-counter medication after the first few days. We provide a personalized approach to aftercare, ensuring you have direct access to our team should any questions arise.

Actual Patient

Breast Augmentation Results

You will see an immediate change in your silhouette, though the implants will sit high initially due to swelling. Over the first 3 months, the implants will undergo a process often described as "drop and fluff," settling into the natural breast pocket and softening to feel like your own tissue.

Long-Term Satisfaction

Modern cohesive gel implants, often called gummy bear implants, are designed to maintain their shape and integrity for many years. While no medical device is considered a "lifetime" device, many patients enjoy their outstanding results for 10–20 years without issue.

Maintaining Your Look

We recommend annual check-ups to monitor the health of your breast tissue and the status of your implants. Should you ever need a breast revision surgery or desire a change in size down the road, our plastic surgeons are experts in secondary procedures, ensuring your look evolves gracefully with you.

Cost of Breast Augmentation

Pricing reflects the customization required for your anatomy and the specific technology used. A standard augmentation is different from a complex revision or a hybrid procedure involving fat transfer. Costs vary based on the type of implant (Saline, Silicone, or Adjustable), the use of internal mesh support (Galaflex), and anesthesia fees.

We believe in total transparency. We provide a complete quote during your consultation with no hidden surgical facility fees. Financing options are available for qualified patients, allowing you to invest in your self confidence without compromising your budget. We do not offer "discount" surgery; we offer value based on safety, expertise, and exceptional results.

Face: For those seeking facial rejuvenation, we offer neck lifts, eyelid lifts, and deep plane facelifts.
Non-Surgical: We also provide a range of non-surgical treatments for skin health and maintenance.

Breast AugmentationFrequently Asked Questions

Will my scars be visible in a bikini?

We place incisions in the natural fold under the breast (inframammary crease). This keeps scarring hidden in most swimwear tops and bras, so you can enjoy the beach with confidence.

Can I combine this with a Tummy Tuck?

Yes. Many patients choose to combine breast enhancement with a tummy tuck or liposuction to address excess skin and restore their pre-pregnancy body shape. This is often referred to as a "Mommy Makeover."

What is the difference between "Gummy Bear" and saline implants?

Gummy Bear (cohesive gel) implants feel more like natural breast tissue and hold their shape better, providing very natural looking results. Saline implants are filled with sterile salt water and can be adjusted for volume but may feel firmer.

How soon can I drive after surgery?

Most patients stop taking prescription pain medication within 2-3 days. Once you are off narcotics and can move your arms comfortably—usually by day 3 or 4—you are free to drive to our Palm Beach Gardens or Boca Raton locations for follow-up.

Do you offer fat transfer to the breasts?

Yes. For patients wanting a modest size increase without implants, we use the Becker Micronizer to harvest and transfer your own fat. This cosmetic procedure offers a soft, completely natural enhancement.

What happens if I want to change my size later?

If you choose the Becker Adjustable Implant, we can adjust the volume in a simple office visit through a small port. This allows us to reconstruct breasts or refine size without the need for a second surgery.

Are you Board Certified?

Yes. Both Dr. Albert and Dr. Becker are board certified plastic surgeons by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and are members of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. We take patient safety and outstanding results seriously.
