Whether you’ve always wished for fuller breasts, experienced changes after pregnancy or weight loss, or want to restore breast volume following surgery, breast augmentation can help you feel more confident and aligned with your ideal self-image. For many women, the decision to enhance their breasts is deeply personal—motivated by a desire for balance, femininity, or simply feeling more at home in their own body.
At Dr. Chris Surek’s practice in Overland Park, breast augmentation is approached with an elevated blend of surgical precision and aesthetic artistry. Every procedure is customized to reflect your anatomy and goals, delivering natural, beautiful results. If you’ve been considering breast implants or augmentation mammoplasty, we invite you to schedule a private consultation with Dr. Surek to explore your options and take the next step toward feeling empowered in your skin.
How the Procedure Works
Breast augmentation involves the surgical placement of implants—either silicone or saline—beneath the breast tissue or chest muscle to enhance breast volume and shape. The most common approach is submuscular (under the pectoral muscle), which provides a more natural contour and reduces the risk of implant visibility.
Dr. Surek uses meticulous techniques to minimize scarring and customize implant placement based on your body’s unique proportions. During your consultation, he will assess your breast anatomy, skin quality, and aesthetic preferences to recommend the optimal implant type, size, and surgical approach—whether that means inframammary (under the breast fold), periareolar (around the nipple), or transaxillary (underarm) incisions.
As a board-certified plastic surgeon and renowned educator in anatomy, Dr. Surek prioritizes safety, precision, and harmony in every breast augmentation procedure. His artistic eye ensures results that are both balanced and natural—not overdone.
Benefits of Breast Augmentation

- Restores fullness lost from pregnancy, weight loss, or aging

What to Expect During Your Appointment
Your breast augmentation journey begins with an in-depth consultation with Dr. Surek in Overland Park. During this visit, you’ll discuss your aesthetic goals, review implant options (silicone vs saline, round vs anatomical), and undergo a thorough examination of your chest wall and skin elasticity. Digital imaging may be used to help you visualize potential outcomes.
On the day of surgery, the procedure is performed under general anesthesia in a fully accredited surgical facility. The surgery typically takes 1 to 2 hours. Incisions are carefully placed in discreet locations and closed with layered sutures to optimize healing.
You’ll return home the same day with a surgical bra to support your new shape. Swelling, tightness, and mild discomfort are normal and can be managed with prescribed medications. Most patients resume light activities within 3–5 days, with return to work around one week, depending on the nature of your job. Full recovery—including exercise and strenuous movement—usually takes about 4–6 weeks.
Procedure Enhancements
Breast augmentation is often combined with other procedures to enhance overall contour and aesthetic balance. Common pairings include:
- Breast Lift (Mastopexy): Addresses sagging or drooping by elevating the breast position and reshaping the tissue—often combined with implants for both lift and volume.
- Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty): Popular in post-pregnancy “Mommy Makeovers,” this improves abdominal contour and pairs beautifully with breast enhancement.
- Liposuction: Enhances overall silhouette by refining surrounding areas such as the flanks, back, or bra line.
Combining procedures can streamline recovery and deliver more dramatic, harmonious results.
Is Breast Augmentation Right for You?
You may be a good candidate for breast augmentation if you:
- Are physically healthy and at a stable weight
- Feel your breasts are too small, uneven, or have lost volume
- Have realistic expectations and a positive outlook
- Are not currently pregnant or breastfeeding
- Have completed your breast development
Dr. Surek will help you evaluate whether breast augmentation is right for you based on your health history, goals, and lifestyle. Emotional readiness and a clear understanding of the procedure are essential to ensuring a successful outcome.
Breast Augmentation vs Alternatives
While breast augmentation offers long-term volume enhancement, it’s not the only option for breast rejuvenation. If your primary concern is sagging rather than size, a breast lift alone may be more appropriate. For those interested in a subtle enhancement using their own tissue, fat transfer breast augmentation is another alternative, although volume gain is limited compared to implants.
Dr. Surek will guide you through your choices and explain which technique—or combination—is best suited to your body and goals.
