Breast augmentation — also called augmentation mammoplasty or breast implant surgery — is one of the most performed cosmetic procedures in the country, and one of Dr. Rieger's specialties. Whether you want to restore volume lost after pregnancy, balance asymmetry, or simply feel more confident in your body, Dr. Rieger customizes every procedure to your unique anatomy and goals.

As a board-certified plastic surgeon by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, Dr. Rieger offers both silicone gel and saline breast implants from FDA-approved manufacturers Allergan and Sientra. Most patients in our Wichita practice — about 97% — choose silicone gel implants because they feel and look more natural. Saline implants remain an excellent option for the right candidate, particularly women with adequate natural breast tissue.

Implants are placed behind the pectoral muscle, which reduces the risk of capsular contracture and interferes less with mammogram screening. Incisions are made in the most discreet location possible — typically in the breast crease, around the areola, or in the armpit — so scarring is minimal and fades over time.

Surgery takes one to two hours. Most patients return to light work within five to seven days and resume full activity within four to six weeks. All-inclusive pricing — covering surgeon fees, implants, anesthesia, and facility — starts at $5,450. There are no hidden costs.
