Huntington Station, NY ( prfree ) April 3, 2013 - For the many women who are unsatisfied with the size or appearance of their breasts, breast augmentation surgery is often an ideal solution. Despite being the number-one cosmetic surgery in the US, many patients still tend to have questions and concerns prior to their procedure. Dr. Charlotte Rhee of Huntington Station took a moment to lend her expertise, sharing three key tips to those seeking breast augmentation surgery.

"The first thing I always emphasize with patients is the importance of setting realistic goals," Dr. Rhee explains. "It's important to understand the potential benefits and limitations of breast augmentation surgery. Patients should develop a plan with their surgeon, and not make hasty decisions on their own." Dr. Rhee - who specializes in today's top breast and body procedures - went on to explain the importance of seeing a doctor's past work.

"It's also crucial to review other patients' before and after photos prior to your own procedure," explains Dr. Rhee. "While not a guarantee of what your results will be, before and after photos can give you a sense of the type of work your plastic surgeon is capable of performing."

Emphasizing the importance of seeking qualified care, Dr. Rhee shared one final tip for breast augmentation candidates: "Most importantly, be sure you are consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon. These are doctors who have undergone specialty training and demonstrated knowledge and experience above and beyond regular medical school." As one of Long Island's top breast surgeons, Dr. Rhee has been board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery since 1999.

Speaking on how interested patients can find out more information, Dr. Rhee concluded with this: "For many women, breast augmentation surgery can be nothing less than life-changing. I encourage anyone interested to meet with a qualified plastic surgeon, discuss your goals and find out the best course of treatment, suited to your needs."
