Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure designed to enhance the size, shape, or overall proportion of the breasts to better align with your personal aesthetic goals. In some cases, it may be combined with complementary procedures, such as a breast lift, to achieve more balanced, youthful-looking results. For many patients, breast augmentation provides a renewed sense of confidence—improving the way clothing fits, restoring lost volume, and helping them feel more comfortable and confident in their body.
At H/K/B Oklahoma City, breast augmentation procedures are performed by Dr. Tim R. Love and Dr. Kenny Quang, both highly skilled plastic surgeons with extensive experience in cosmetic breast surgery. Together, they combine advanced surgical techniques, an artistic eye for natural results, and a patient-centered approach to deliver outcomes that are both beautiful and individualized.

Reasons People Choose Breast Augmentation
Breast augmentation is a highly personal decision, and patients seek it for many different reasons. Symmetrical, proportionate breasts can enhance natural femininity while still looking and feeling authentic to your body.
Some of the most common reasons for breast augmentation are:
- Reconstructing one or both breasts following mastectomy
- Increasing breast size when breasts feel disproportionately small
- Improving symmetry between breasts
- Restoring volume lost after pregnancy, nursing, or weight loss
Types of Breast Augmentation Procedures
Breast augmentation can be accomplished through one of two types of procedures: fat transfer (or fat grafting) or implants (either saline or silicone gel).
Fat transfer, or fat grafting, uses your own fat from other parts of your body to increase the size of your breasts or change their shape. Fat is harvested from your thighs, buttocks, or stomach via liposuction and injected into the breasts with a fine needle, eliminating the need for large incisions and resulting in minimal scarring. Because it does not use pre-formed implants to enhance your breasts, fat transfer allows Dr. Love to shape and sculpt the breasts more easily and subtly. Fat transfer results can potentially produce results that last longer but may be more susceptible to future changes in weight gain or loss. Additionally, fat grafting will not result in the same full result as an implant.
Implant procedures consist of inserting saline- or silicone-filled medical-grade implant devices into the breasts via one of three types of incisions: the inframammary fold, where the bottom of the breast meets the chest wall; the peri areolar, around the areola; or a trans axillary, or armpit, incision. Breast implants are inserted under the breast tissue and, in most cases, under the muscle (sub muscularly) as well. The additional tissue to cover the implants allows for a more natural look and feel, while the added support from the muscles reduces the weight impact of the implant and minimizes stretch marks over time. This separated placement also ensures easier and more thorough imaging during mammograms.
Sub glandular placement—where the implant is inserted behind the breast tissue but in front of the muscle—is less common but recommended in certain situations.
There are three types of breast implant options.
Saline implants feature a silicone exterior with a saline solution filling (essentially saltwater) that is harmless to the body if the implant ruptures. The “pockets” of the implant are inserted empty into the breast, then filled with the saline through a port. Saline implants require small incisions but are less natural-looking in appearance.
Silicone implants also have an exterior silicone exterior but are instead filled with a silicone gel that resembles human fat for a more natural look and feel. Silicone implants are inserted pre-filled and come in both round and teardrop shapes for the most natural positioning and look.
Gummy bear implants are anatomically-shaped, textured silicone implants filled with high-strength cohesive silicone gel. They feel soft and natural and are less unlikely to rupture or fold.

The Breast Augmentation Procedure
Breast augmentation is performed in an accredited outpatient surgical facility under general anesthesia and typically takes between one and a half to two hours. At H/K/B Oklahoma City, Dr. Tim R. Love and Dr. Kenny Quang work closely with an experienced nursing and anesthesia team to ensure a carefully planned, comfortable, and safe surgical experience. Extensive preoperative preparation allows every step of the procedure to be tailored to your individual needs. Following surgery, your breasts will be bandaged and supported with a surgical bra, and you will be monitored in a recovery area as you awaken from anesthesia.
Because breast augmentation is an outpatient procedure, you will return home the same day. Some temporary limitations are expected, particularly during the first 24 hours, when rest and minimal activity are essential. Most patients are able to resume light daily activities within a few days. Bandages are typically removed at your 24-hour follow-up appointment, though the surgical support bra should be worn for several weeks to promote optimal healing. Mild discomfort, swelling, and bruising are normal and generally subside within a few weeks.
For implants placed beneath the muscle, it is common to experience tightness or soreness as the muscle adjusts. Light physical activity and gentle movement can usually begin within the first week and may aid recovery, though patients are encouraged to listen to their bodies and follow individualized guidance from Dr. Love or Dr. Quang. Prescription pain medication will be provided as needed to ensure comfort throughout the recovery process.
The Safety of Breast Implants
As with any surgical procedure, breast augmentation carries a small risk of complications. These may include infection, changes in breast sensation, implant wrinkling, capsular contracture, or implant rupture. However, complication rates are low and continue to decrease due to advances in surgical techniques and implant technology.
Breast implants—particularly silicone implants—are among the most extensively studied medical devices available. Long-term research supports their safety, effectiveness, and low risk of serious complications or long-term health concerns. In most cases, breast implants can last 15 to 20 years before replacement may be needed, offering long-lasting, natural-looking results.
Deciding if Breast Augmentation is Right for You
While breast augmentation has helped millions of women feel more confident and comfortable in their bodies, choosing whether the procedure is right for you is a deeply personal decision.
A personalized consultation with Dr. Tim R. Love or Dr. Kenny Quang provides the opportunity to ask questions, explore your options, and gain a clear understanding of what breast augmentation can achieve for your unique body and goals. During this one-on-one visit, your surgeon will guide you through every aspect of the decision-making process, ensuring you feel informed, confident, and fully supported.
Dr. Love and Dr. Quang understand that the best results enhance your natural proportions and complement your lifestyle. They carefully evaluate your anatomy, breast tissue, and aesthetic preferences to recommend the ideal implant size, shape, volume, and placement. You will have the opportunity to view and feel implant samples, review incision and placement options, and discuss whether additional procedures—such as a breast lift—may help you achieve optimal results.
