breast augmentation

Cosmetic chest enhancement

Breast augmentation is a cosmetic surgical procedure to increase breast size, typically using implants filled with silicone or saline.

The procedure may also be called a boob job in casual speech.

Some women seek augmentation for aesthetic reasons; others undergo it as reconstruction after mastectomy.
