What Is Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation is a cosmetic procedure aimed at resizing the breasts to create a rounder, fuller appearance. It's one of the most highly demanded cosmetic surgeries on the market, offering women who are unhappy with their breast size a chance to attain the figure they want. With the help of implants or fat from the patient's body, this procedure improves breast shape and size, creating a beautiful and youthful outcome. As an experienced plastic surgeon, Dr. Dino Maglic has extensive training in performing breast augmentation surgery. During your consultation at our Draper, UT office, Dr. Maglic will learn all about the look you're trying to create and educate you on all of your available choices before building a custom treatment plan to help you reach your aesthetic goals. Set up your consultation at Maglic Plastic Surgery to start your transformation.
What Can I Expect During Breast Augmentation?
Before starting your breast augmentation, Dr. Maglic will consider the type of incision needed and the right placement. During the procedure, an incision is created, and then the implant is slipped into its position. There are several techniques that may be chosen for implant placement. These are either under the pectoral muscle or submammary/subglandular placement (over the pec muscle). Where to insert the breast implant depends on varying factors, including the type and degree of implant enlargement. No matter where the incision is placed, scarring is generally minimal. Implant placement is determined based on your body type, implant size, and lifestyle.
What Should I Expect after Breast Augmentation?
Breast enhancement surgery is an outpatient procedure performed under general anesthesia. An incision is made during the surgery, and a silicone or saline implant is placed into a surgically created pocket before being securely positioned. The incision is then closed with sutures or skin adhesives. After recovery monitoring, patients are discharged wearing a medical sports bra to minimize swelling and provide support. Swelling and bruising typically subside within a few days as the breasts settle into their new position and feel more natural. Most patients can return to normal activities within a week, but strenuous exercise should be avoided for a few months. This procedure often delivers beautiful, natural-looking results that enhance confidence and can be life-changing for many women.
What Are the Benefits of Breast Augmentation?
Breast augmentation at Maglic Plastic Surgery offers an effective and customizable solution for Draper, UT patients who want to enhance their overall figure. Some of the benefits of this surgery include:
- Enhances breast size and volume
- Offers noticeable, long-lasting outcomes
- Reconstructs breasts following a mastectomy
- Increases confidence and self-image
- Helps with restoring breasts changed by motherhood, aging, or rapid weight loss
- Eliminates asymmetrical breast shape
Am I A Candidate for Breast Augmentation?
The choice to undergo breast augmentation surgery is personal. If you are contemplating this procedure, it is important you do it for the right reasons. You should be healthy and at a normal weight with breasts that are developed and be the appropriate age to receive implants. If you are unhappy with the shape of your chest because it seems deflated, you may benefit from breast augmentation surgery. Moreover, if your breasts have changed due to age, pregnancy, or weight loss, this surgical procedure can give them life with increased shape and fullness. It is a welcomed solution if you weight train or have limited native breast tissue.
What Are Some Common Approaches for Breast Augmentation Surgery?
There are several approaches to breast augmentation. During your consultation, Dr. Maglic will go over the details of each one, including their benefits. Your breast implant placement choices include:
- Submuscular: With this approach, the implants are positioned under the breast tissue and pectoral muscle. The advantages of submuscular implants include a more natural look and reduced wrinkling (called "rippling").
- Subglandular: Subglandular placement positions the implants under the breast glands but on top of the chest muscle. This technique offers a faster recovery than other approaches and doesn't interfere as much with muscle movement, making it an attractive option for more active patients.
- Subfascial: This approach involves placing the implants under the fascia, the membrane that covers the pectoral muscle. The benefits of this position include added support and a more comfortable recovery period.

Breast Augmentation Reviews
Dr Maglic is hands down one of the best plastic surgeons in the state of Utah. His attention to detail and patient care are second to none. He revised a tummy tuck for me and it looks 100 times better than the first doctor that did it. I also have a few friends that have had breast augmentations with him and we all agree that there isn’t another doctor we would go to.
I highly recommend DR Dino Maglic he did very nice job to my wife on the inplant and the office people are very helpful
I had an amazing experience with my breast augmentation, DR Maglic and his team were amazing. I’m so glad I decided to go through with it. If you’re on the fence about it, I highly recommend doing it—you won’t regret it! The staff was incredibly professional, supportive, and friendly throughout the entire process. From the consultation to post-surgery care, I felt completely at ease and well taken care of every step of the way.
It’s clear that Dr. Maglić is passionate about what he does. He listened to my goals, acknowledged my concerns without judgment, and gave me constructive advice about what would look most natural for my body type. I felt so confident in him that I booked my surgery immediately. Dr. Maglić continues to be very attentive during my follow-up appointments, ensuring all my questions and concerns are addressed, and I don’t leave until I feel everything has been covered. 10/10 would recommend Dr. Maglić and his team to anyone!
I can’t say enough great things about Dr. Maglic. I went in for my consultation having no idea what to expect or what I was getting myself into and left feeling more hopeful than ever. He gives you realistic expectations and is very up front and honest about the process. I felt so confident about being in good hands after my consultation that I called to schedule my surgery just only a couple weeks later. He truly cares for his patients and takes pride in what he does and it shows! You can tell this is not only a talent of his but a true passion. He gets just as excited about your results as you do. I got a breast augmentation and a lift and my recovery was so smooth! The scarring from his work is so minimal it’s truly impressive. I have already recommended him to a friend and would recommend him time and time again. I’m so happy I chose to go with him and his amazing team. It has been a life changing experience :)

Breast Augmentation FAQ
How much does breast augmentation cost?
The total cost of breast augmentation surgery can vary based on your goals and if you are having any other surgeries at the same time. After building your surgical plan, we will go over estimated costs and financing. To make sure you are happy with your results and they last a long time, it's better to focus on working with a qualified surgeon rather than the cheapest provider.
Do I need a breast lift or augmentation?
Your plan may include breast augmentation, a breast lift, or both. Breast lift surgery removes loose skin and raises the position of the breasts, while augmentation addresses the shape and size of the breasts. During your consultation, Dr. Maglic will listen to your needs and goals before discussing your best treatment options. Depending on your aesthetic goals and your body's condition, you may benefit from mommy makeover surgery, which can combine breast enhancement with other surgeries for a more comprehensive transformation.
Can I breastfeed with implants?
It's usually possible to breastfeed after augmentation surgery, depending on the surgical technique and the placement of the implants. If you want to be able to breastfeed after your surgery, talk to Dr. Maglic about this during your consultation. Pregnancy and breastfeeding can affect your results, which is why it is best to wait until after you are done having children to have breast augmentation.
Can I have my implants removed later?
Breast implants can be removed with breast revision surgery. In revision surgery, your current implants will be either replaced with new implants or removed entirely. If you choose to have your implants removed, you may need to have excess skin removed, as larger implants can stretch your skin. If you have any questions or concerns after your augmentation surgery, schedule a consultation at Maglic Plastic Surgery to discuss your options.
Do implants cause breast cancer?
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is investigating a possible link between breast implants and anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). This is not breast cancer; it is a cancer of the immune system. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), implant-related ALCL is very rare and often very treatable if identified early. Dr. Maglic encourages all patients with breast implants to get regular screenings for breast cancer. You should contact Maglic Plastic Surgery if you see any concerns, such as swelling.
