Breast implant surgery is performed in our West Annapolis Surgery Center under light anesthesia. Incisions are made following the procedure plan, a pocket in the breast is created, the implant is placed using a sterile insertion sleeve, and both the pocket and the incisions are closed.
The procedure usually takes 1 to 1-1/2 hours. It may take more time if implant placement is combined with another procedure, such as a breast lift or liposuction.
