Breast Augmentation for Small Breasts: How to Achieve Proportional Results

By: Dr. Algie LaBrasca

4/21/2025

If you have smaller breasts, you may have thought about breast enhancement at some point. Maybe your clothing doesn't fit quite how you'd like, or perhaps you're self-conscious about uneven breasts. Whatever your reasons, breast augmentation surgery can help you achieve a fuller, more balanced look. At LaBrasca Plastic Surgery in DuBois, PA, Dr. Algie LaBrasca frequently sees patients from all over the state who simply want to feel more comfortable and confident in their own skin. If proportional, natural-looking results are important to you, breast surgery can be a great choice. 

What is breast augmentation surgery? 

Breast augmentation surgery, also known as augmentation mammoplasty, is a procedure designed to increase breast size and improve breast shape. The procedure typically involves placing silicone or saline breast implants beneath the breast tissue or chest muscle. Women at LaBrasca Plastic Surgery often choose breast augmentation surgery when they want fuller breasts or to restore breast volume after pregnancy or weight changes. The surgery usually takes about an hour or two, and you'll likely go home the same day. Most people return to normal activities within a week or two, with optimal results becoming clear over several months as the swelling settles and the body adjusts. 

What size of breast implants should I get? 

Selecting the right breast implant size depends heavily on body type, desired look, and lifestyle. Bigger isn't always better when it comes to breast enhancement — in fact, proportional, natural-looking results usually provide the highest satisfaction. During your consultation, Dr. LaBrasca will help you understand your options, guiding you toward a breast implant size that complements your unique figure and feels comfortable. The goal is to enhance your existing shape, ensuring that your breast enhancement complements your overall look. 

Can augmentation mammoplasty help with uneven breasts? 

Breast asymmetry is extremely common — almost every woman has some degree of uneven breasts — but for some, it can be especially noticeable. Augmentation mammoplasty can effectively address this by using breast implants of differing sizes or adjusting implant positioning to balance breasts. For women who've struggled with noticeable asymmetry, breast augmentation surgery can make a meaningful difference, improving appearance and self-confidence at the same time. 

Can I combine my breast augmentation surgery with other treatments? 

Many women ask Dr. LaBrasca about combining breast augmentation surgery with additional procedures, especially if they're looking for more comprehensive results in Pittsburgh, PA. Some of the most common combinations include:  

  • Breast lift: Helps reposition and reshape the breasts for a perkier, more youthful appearance. 
  • Tummy tuck: Removes excess skin and tightens abdominal muscles, often chosen after pregnancy or weight loss. 
  • VASER liposuction: Targets stubborn fat with precision, enhancing body contours with minimal downtime. 
  • Brazilian butt lift: Uses your own fat to add volume and shape to the buttocks for a more sculpted silhouette. 

Combining multiple procedures into a single surgical plan can make recovery more efficient and support a more balanced overall result. If you're hoping to enhance more than one area at once, your consultation is the place to explore what makes the most sense for your goals.
