The demand for breast augmentation in Las Vegas is exceptionally high, with hundreds of women opting for the procedure annually. The allure lies in the enhanced feminine silhouette achieved through round, shapely, augmented breasts. Beyond simply altering size, these enhancements embody sought-after beauty standards, instilling women with newfound confidence and a heightened sense of attractiveness. For many, breast augmentation is not just a physical transformation—it’s an empowering journey toward self-expression and body positivity. Whether restoring volume after pregnancy, correcting asymmetry, or simply enhancing what nature provided, this procedure remains one of the most popular and impactful choices in cosmetic surgery today.
Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure performed to enhance the size and shape of the breasts, balance breast symmetry and create an attractive, proportionate feminine physique.
Breast volume can be lost after surgery, pregnancy, breastfeeding or significant weight loss, and breast augmentation returns the full, attractive look of the breasts again. For women who have always been small chested and wanted to have larger, rounder breasts, or who have struggled with asymmetrical breasts, this surgery fulfills what is often a long-wished for goal.
At LV Plastic Surgery, we offer a variety of implant options, consistencies and sizes to help you realize your aesthetic goals for your breasts.
Some women put off breast augmentation because they are worried about the cost. However, when you think of the amount most women spend in the long term on expensive bras or clothes to give the appearance of fuller breasts, not to mention the worry and lack of confidence that they live with when they aren’t satisfied with their breasts, the cost of breast augmentation is well worth it.
Breast augmentation expenses depend on a number of factors, such as the price of an excellent anesthesiologist. One of the main factors that can influence the cost of breast augmentation is which breast implants you decide on. Silicone or gummy bear implants are more expensive than saline implants, but each type of implant has its own benefits.
The procedure complexity itself may also be a factor in the price of a breast augmentation in Las Vegas. If you are having revision breast augmentation surgery or breast reconstruction, the cost may be more because the procedure is more complex.
Ultimately, the cost of your breast augmentation varies based on your individual needs, concerns and goals for your breasts. In general, patients can expect to pay about $8,000 to $16,000 for breast surgery with Dr. Parker.

Candidates for breast augmentation are women who are looking to restore or enhance their breasts to achieve a fuller and more shapely appearance. Candidates should meet the following criteria:
Here are ten tips for a smooth breast augmentation recovery to help you heal faster and more comfortably:
Your surgeon will provide detailed post-operative care instructions. Follow these closely, including medication schedules, cleaning routines, and follow-up appointments to ensure proper healing.
Rest is crucial for your body's healing. Avoid strenuous activities, heavy lifting, and vigorous exercises for at least 4-6 weeks. This reduces the risk of complications like implant displacement or swelling.
Your surgeon may recommend wearing a compression or surgical bra. These garments help minimize swelling, provide support, and help shape your breasts during the initial healing phase.
Sleep on your back for the first few weeks with your upper body elevated using pillows. This helps reduce swelling and prevents any undue pressure on your chest.
Drinking plenty of water and eating nutritious foods can help speed up healing. Focus on lean proteins, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to support recovery.
Smoking can impair wound healing and increase the risk of complications, while alcohol can interfere with pain medications and slow down your recovery. Stay clear of both during your healing process.
Take prescribed medications as directed, and don’t hesitate to communicate with your surgeon if your pain becomes unmanageable. You might also find comfort with cold compresses to reduce swelling and discomfort.
Although strenuous exercise is off-limits, light movement, such as walking around the house, helps promote circulation, prevents blood clots, and aids in recovery.
Keep an eye on your incisions and contact your surgeon if you notice signs of infection like redness, excessive swelling, discharge, or unusual pain. Keeping your incisions clean and dry is crucial for proper healing.
Swelling, bruising, and implant settling can take several weeks to months. Results improve gradually, so give your body time to heal and adjust before judging the final outcome.
By following these recovery tips, you’ll ensure the best possible results from your breast augmentation.
Dr. Parker will go over the different sizes of implants so that you can find the one most desirable for you, while also advising on which implant size would best suit your current proportions. Your body type, the width of your natural breasts and the size of your chest wall are all important factors to consider. Clothing and lifestyle preferences are also factors to think with as you make this important decision. With Dr. Parker, you will also be able to test different-sized implants to see how they look and feel on your body.
One of the most important decisions you will make with Dr. Parker is which type of implant you want: saline or silicone.
Saline implants are a silicone shell that is inserted into a small incision (usually in the armpit), filled with sterile saltwater after placement and precisely adjusted to create symmetrical, round breasts.
Silicone implants are a silicone shell containing a viscous silicone gel that are inserted into an incision around the areola or in the crease under the breast.
There is no limit on the post-operative care we provide, and you will always be served by Dr. Parker. We are available 24/7 for calls if you have any concerns.
During the first few days of recovery after your breast augmentation in Las Vegas, it is best to have someone stay with you and assist you. You will experience swelling, and after surgery you will have a compression bandage around your chest to support and protect your breasts. This bandage limits the post-surgical swelling.
Within a week or two, most women return to their normal daily activities, but be sure not to lift anything over five pounds and avoid lifting your arms above your shoulders. Avoid all vigorous exercise or physical activities until Dr. Parker clears you for this. You should be fully healed in 4-6 weeks.
While you will see immediate results with your new breasts in place, your body will continue to heal over the coming weeks to months. Once the swelling subsides, the implants will settle into their final position, and you can enjoy your new, full and beautiful breasts.

Schedule a ConsultationLV Plastic Surgery provides general anesthesia for your breast augmentation procedure, ensuring you are completely asleep during the surgery.
Most women will have loss of some feeling or sensation which usually lasts 6-12 months. 15% of women will experience permanent alterations in nipple sensation.
Do not pick up anything that weighs over five pounds. The weight of anything heavier may have a negative impact on the implants and healing incisions. Wait for at least six weeks.
You should be able to breastfeed after a typical augmentation, but be sure to discuss this requirement with Dr. Parker during your consultation, as some methods of implant placement may affect breastfeeding.
Wait until six weeks have passed to do any rigorous exercise.
Breast augmentation is often best paired with a breast lift to raise the breasts. This provides a youthful, attractive upward tilt of the breasts and nipples. Breast augmentation can also be done as a part of a mommy makeover, which may include a tummy tuck, liposuction or labiaplasty.
After the initial healing period, it will take between six weeks and three months for your implants to fully settle.
If you have a sedentary job that doesn’t require exertion, you may return to work after 1-2 weeks, depending on your comfort level. Any lifting (above five pounds) or exertion should be avoided for at least six weeks.
During the first two weeks, the pain is moderate, but should not be severe, and can be controlled with medication.
There is no right answer for this, as each patient’s needs are unique.
Saline implants are less expensive and pose no risk in the event of rupture. They can be easily inserted through an armpit incision, meaning the breasts will not be scarred. They provide a very round look.
Silicone implants are softer, more natural-looking and feel more like natural breasts. They have a variety of options when it comes to texture and firmness.
Breast augmentation will round out deflated breasts, but if your breasts are sagging and you would like them lifted, this can be done in conjunction with the augmentation, providing you with perky, lifted breasts.
“Gummy bear” is the nickname for silicone implants that retain their shape better than other types of breast implants. These silicone implants are made from a highly cohesive gel and are a popular choice for implants at LV Plastic Surgery.
Choosing the right implant size is a highly personalized decision that should be made in consultation with your surgeon. Factors to consider include your body frame, existing breast tissue, aesthetic goals, and lifestyle. During your consultation, your surgeon will discuss these factors and may use tools like 3D imaging or sizers to help you visualize potential outcomes. It's important to communicate your desired look clearly and consider the long-term implications of your choice. Your surgeon will guide you to ensure that the chosen size complements your body proportions and achieves a natural, balanced appearance.
Like any surgical procedure, breast augmentation carries potential risks and complications. These can include infection, bleeding, changes in nipple or breast sensation, implant leakage or rupture, and capsular contracture (scar tissue forming around the implant). Some patients may also experience asymmetry or dissatisfaction with the aesthetic outcome. It's important to choose a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience in breast augmentation to minimize these risks. During your consultation, your surgeon will thoroughly discuss the potential complications, how they are managed, and the steps taken to reduce their likelihood. Following pre- and post-operative care instructions meticulously can also help mitigate these risks.
