BREAST AUGMENTATION IN BURLINGTON
Expert guidance to restore symmetry, fullness, and self-assurance with a natural-looking breast augmentation, tailored to you. Book your consultation today with Dr. Shih & our all-female team.
Whether you’re relying on padded bras, clever outfits, or strategic undergarments, you deserve more than just a quick cover-up. There’s a lasting way to feel naturally confident in your own skin.
Temporary Boosts Fall Short
Padded bras and inserts may give you shape for the day, but they can’t deliver the confidence you crave—day in and day out.
Camouflage Isn’t Confidence
Hiding under layers or carefully chosen styles only masks the issue. It’s time to embrace something that celebrates your true silhouette.
Our personalized approach has made a real difference in these lives of patients. Here’s what they have to say about their journey with us.

I am so grateful for Dr. Shih - she changed my life! Throughout the whole process from my first consultation, to the surgery, and the follow up care after the surgery, she was so warm, relaxed and reassuring.
I had researched several surgeons in the area, met with four and decided that Dr. Shih was the right fit for me. I could tell during our first meeting that I was in good hands. She took the time to listen to my concerns, answered all of my questions, explained my options and what I could expect. It was so refreshing, especially after my previous experiences with some of the other doctors in the area.

Still curious? We’ve compiled the most common questions about breast augmentation—from candidacy and recovery to implant choices and costs—so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.
Most healthy adults in good overall health who desire fuller or more symmetrical breasts are candidates. Ideal candidates have realistic expectations, are non-smokers (or willing to quit around surgery), and are free of active infections or uncontrolled medical conditions. Your personalized consultation will confirm your suitability and outline the safest path forward.
After surgery under general anesthesia, most patients return to desk-based work and light daily activities within 5–7 days. Swelling and bruising typically resolve over 2–4 weeks. You can resume more vigorous exercise and heavy lifting around the four-week mark, with full results best appreciated at three months.
We offer multiple incision options—under the breast crease (IMF), around the areola (PA), or in the armpit (TA)—to place scars where they’re least visible. Over time, scars fade and often blend into natural skin lines. Our surgical team uses meticulous closure techniques and post-op scar care recommendations to ensure the best cosmetic outcome
Implant selection is highly personalized. During your consultation, Dr. Shih will evaluate your chest width, tissue elasticity, and lifestyle to recommend a silicone implant profile and volume that complement your frame. We’ll use 3D imaging and “sizers” so you can preview your new shape before making a decision.
Costs vary based on implant type, placement technique, and facility fees. At Burlington Plastic Surgery, our all-inclusive pricing covers surgeon and anesthesiologist fees, facility costs, and follow-up care. We partner with trusted medical financing companies to offer low-interest payment plans, so you can comfortably invest in yourself.
