Embark on an insightful exploration of breast augmentation with hosts Dr. Sam Jejurikar @samjejurikar, Dr. Salvatore Pacella @sandiegoplasticsurgeon, Dr. Lawrence Tong @yorkvilleplasticsurgery, and Dr. Sam Rhee @bergencosmetic
as we navigate the nuanced landscape of sizing patients for breast implants, marrying aesthetic desires with anatomical must-haves. 

This episode peels back the layers on how we, as plastic surgeons, harmonize a patient's vision with practical considerations, ensuring the chosen implants complement their individual body frame and personal aspirations.

Sizing isn't just about numbers—it's an art form, and this episode pulls back the curtain on the personalized techniques and cutting-edge technologies we wield to sculpt confidence. We discuss the hands-on approach with sizers, which affords patients the opportunity to 'try before they buy,' often leaning towards a marginally larger implant to nail the anticipated look. We also examine the digital revolution in consultations, where 3D imaging, powered by AI, is transforming the way we visualize potential outcomes and the continued impact of virtual consultations post-pandemic on the evolving practice of plastic surgery.

As we conclude, the spotlight shines on the potent combination of patient autonomy and the surgeon's expertise in cosmetic surgery. Nurturing a relationship anchored in trust and informed choice is paramount, especially when considering larger-than-life implant sizes. We unpack the collaborative process, empowering patients to steer their journey while leaning on our professional acumen for what's achievable. Tune in to discover how we align dreams with reality, ensuring patients are not just satisfied but truly elated with their surgical decisions.
