Understanding Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation is a plastic surgery procedure that allows women to achieve the breast size and shape that best complements their natural features. Desired by women with small breast tissue, uneven breasts or those who have endured significant breast tissue loss over time, the breast augmentation procedure can restore confidence while enhancing natural-looking contours.

Dr. Christopher Schaffer uses several techniques to provide patients with the results they crave. These techniques may vary from one patient to another, but they include inframammary, periareolar and transaxillary techniques. Dr. Schaffer often uses these techniques to perform minimally invasive breast augmentation procedures.

The breast augmentation procedure is a significant surgical procedure, so patients must have realistic expectations of the recovery process. In general, recovery lasts for between 7 and 14 days, and activity may be restricted for between 4 and 6 weeks. Dr. Schaffer will provide personalized after-care instructions, including information about specific activity restrictions and guidelines for the typical healing process.

The Benefits of Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation is a revolutionary procedure that can improve your appearance and boost your self-confidence, giving you the flexibility and freedom to live life on your terms.

Dr. Schaffer and his staff did an amazing job! Joely was my nurse and she was wonderful. She helped me make an informed decision. I went with the silicone naturelle gummier implants. They feel wonderful! I was extremely happy and amazed at my recovery time. I have a 2 year old so I was worried about how it would affect me, but there was no issues at all. I recently recommended my aunt.

After two children, I decided it was time to make some adjustments to my 'sad' situation. I visited a total of 4 surgeons (Houston, TX; Lafayette, LA; Atlanta; and another in Birmingham) before I found Dr. Schaffer. I thoroughly enjoyed both the experiences with his staff and him. My results are STUNNING. I could not be happier. 5 stars all the way!!!

I highly recommend Dr. Schaffer. He performed a breast augmentation on me and he was able to reduce the asymmetry in the appearance of my breast tremendously. He is very professional and listened to all my wishes. The results are amazing and I couldn't be any happier.

I got my breast done in 2014 by doctor Chris Schaffer. He did a great job. The staff was great he was the best doctor I have ever worked with.

Michelle P.

Dr. Schaffer did a breast augmentation and abdominoplasty almost 17 years ago on me at Kirkland clinic. I just turned 51 and I am still as happy now as I was then. It says a lot for someone's work when you still feel great with it after all of these years!

Kimberly M.

I would recommend Dr. Schaffer a million times over! He did an amazing job. I had gone to several plastic surgeons for consults and wasn't pleased. I drove out of state just to use him. The entire staff was incredible. They go they extra mile! They even sent a card in the mail to me with the signatures of the staff. So sweet

Moriah M,

Dr. Schaffer and his staff are absolutely amazing! I had breast augmentation on April 14th, 2017. Over the past month, Dr. Schaffer and his staff have taken very good care of me. I had some issues that were unexpected, unplanned for and were not anyone's fault, my body just didn't want to cooperate! Dr. Schaffer made sure that he did everything in his power to treat me properly and professionally take care of me. He even saw me in his office on a Saturday night, when he didn't have to! He took time away from his family and personal life to check on me, even calling my husband the next day to make sure all was good. In my eyes Dr. Schaffer and his staff have gone above and beyond for me and for that I greatly appreciate them! I would highly recommend him to anyone that asks!!

Tiffany B.

I had been wanting breast enhancement surgery for quite a while, went to lots of surgeons in the Tampa Bay area to try and find that one special dr. As soon as I met Dr. Schaffer I knew he would be the Dr. for me, I wanted the best of the best...And another bonus was the price, I would have paid any amount as long as the Dr. I went to was the right one for me. Dr. Schaffer asked me questions and also let me talk. He also was very informative and up to date, and he LISTENED to me, he gave me the results I asked for and I could not be any happier!! I get so many compliments on how great I look, I have also been approached by photographers for magazines and any girl I come across that like my new look asks me “who is your Dr. “ I look and feel like a million bucks! I would never ever go anywhere else. He has a great personality and Dr. Schaffer and his staff were always just a phone call away, they called me every day to check on me to see how I was doing after surgery! I had not one bruise and no pain!! His rapid recovery program for Breast Augmentation is amazing. So if you’re looking for the BEST at a good price, go see the lovely Dr. Schaffer. And I promise you will not be disappointed !!!!!!!!!! He is great…simply put.
