Our Philosophy & Approach

At Ferguson Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics, we understand that choosing to undergo plastic surgery is a deeply personal decision, one that requires trust, careful thought, and a true partnership between patient and surgeon. Our philosophy is simple: we listen first, recommend second, and always prioritize your health, safety, and satisfaction.

Dr. Ferguson believes in achieving results that look natural, not overdone. His approach focuses on restoring and enhancing your unique features in a way that aligns with your personal goals, not unrealistic trends. Every treatment plan is customized, whether you’re seeking subtle rejuvenation or a more transformative change.

We are committed to helping you feel more confident in your own skin, and we consider it a privilege to be part of your journey.

Recovery Process & Results

After surgery, patients typically experience mild swelling, tightness, or soreness for a few days. Most return to normal daily activities within 1–2 weeks, though exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for several weeks.

As healing progresses, the breast implants soften and settle naturally, revealing smooth, balanced results that complement your frame. Dr. Ferguson will provide a personalized recovery plan and follow-up schedule to help you heal comfortably and confidently.

Maintenance & Breast Revision Options

Mentor™ breast implants are designed for long-term durability, but some patients choose revision later in life to adjust size, shape, or accommodate natural aging changes. Dr. Ferguson offers full revision services and can remove or replace breast implants if desired.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Mentor™ different from other breast implants?

Mentor™ breast implants are FDA approved, made in the USA, backed by over 30 years of clinical data, and offer a lifetime replacement warranty.

Do Mentor™ breast implants feel natural?

Yes. MemoryGel™ silicone is designed to closely mimic the feel of natural breast tissue, offering soft, realistic results.

How long is the recovery period?

Most patients return to light activity within 1–2 weeks and resume full activity after several weeks, depending on implant placement and personal healing.

How long do Mentor™ implants last?

While designed for long-term durability, breast implants are not considered lifetime devices. Many patients enjoy results for 10–20+ years, and Mentor™ offers warranty protection for added security.

Is Mentor™ a saline implant?

Mentor™ offers both silicone gel implants and saline-filled breast implant options, but not all Mentor™ breast implants are saline implants. The most popular choice today is Mentor™ MemoryGel™, silicone breast implants designed to look and feel more like natural breast tissue. However, Mentor™ also manufactures Mentor™ Saline Breast Implants, which are filled with sterile saltwater during surgery and can be adjusted for volume.

Which is better, silicone implants or saline implants?

There is no single “better” option because saline and silicone implants each have benefits depending on what you're looking for. Silicone implants, like Mentor™ MemoryGel™, tend to offer a softer, more natural feel and are often preferred by patients who want results that closely resemble natural breast tissue. Saline implants, on the other hand, are filled after they are placed in the breast, which allows for minor size adjustments during surgery and requires a smaller incision. They also have the advantage that, if a rupture occurs, the body safely absorbs the saline. However, saline implants may feel slightly firmer and can show more visible rippling in women with thinner breast tissue. During your consultation, Dr. Ferguson will discuss both options in detail and recommend the implant type that best aligns with your lifestyle, body frame, and aesthetic goals.

What’s the best option for my breast augmentation?

The best breast augmentation option varies from patient to patient, depending on your anatomy, lifestyle, and the look you want to achieve. For instance, a round breast implant may fit the body type of one individual better than a teardrop-shaped breast implant. The only way to know which breast augmentation type, size, and placement will work best for you is through an in-person consultation. During your visit, Dr. Ferguson will evaluate your breast augmentation goals, take precise measurements, and walk you through every breast augmentation option available, including implant types, profiles, incision locations, and whether a breast lift should be combined with your procedure. Our goal is to help you make a confident decision for your breast augmentation based on expert guidance and results that fit your body and vision.
