Case #2

This 37-year-old woman seen in these before-and-after photos presented to our Northwest Indiana office which was located in Munster (we have since moved to Schererville) for a consultation regarding breast augmentation. She lost volume in her breasts after breastfeeding each of her three children. Her desire was to be enlarged from a small B cup to a full C cup. Being otherwise healthy and having realistic expectations, Dr. Galante, a board certified plastic surgeon specializing in breast surgery, felt she was an excellent candidate for breast augmentation.

Her photos demonstrate the typical appearance of a breast following multiple pregnancies. There is loss of volume in the upper part of the breast, and the nipple is sagging on the lower pole of the breast. At 5 feet, 6 inches tall; 136 pounds; and given her small chest dimensions, a 310cc smooth, saline high profile breast implant was selected and filled to 375cc in order to meet her expectations.

A breast augmentation was performed in one of the Indiana surgery centers used by Dr. Galante. The breast implant was inserted through an incision in the crease under the breast and placed below the muscle to give her the most natural result. Her before and photos show how the breast implants improved the appearance of her breasts by providing upper pole fullness and raising the position of her nipples to a more youthful location.

Each patient is different and requires an individualized treatment plan. If you have an interest in breast augmentation and live near one of Dr. Galante’s Indiana offices in Schererville or Valparaiso, call to schedule a consultation.
