Welcome to MedSpa 1722

As you probably know, both silicone gel and saline implants are widely available for most breast augmentation surgeries. For a long time, due to unfounded claims about a link between silicone implants and autoimmune disorders, silicone implants fell out of favor in the United States. After over a decade of research and technological advances, silicone implants were again FDA approved as safe medical devices in 2006. Silicone is fast becoming the preferred implant type for women from New Jersey and Philadelphia choosing breast enlargement with Dr. Sorokin. Silicone gel breast implants have been labeled as safe and effective devices by the FDA, and you can choose to use them with confidence that they are one of the most rigorously studied medical devices in the history of the United States. Dr. Sorokin offers both saline and silicone breast implants however 95% of the implants he places are gummy highly cohesive silicone gel breast implants. If you still have lingering doubts, you can learn more about the safety of silicone gel implants by coming to see Dr. Sorokin, who will show you actual implants and explain the history of these devices.

Recently the FDA added a Black Box Warning to breast implants. The warning includes the following:

• Breast implants are not considered lifetime devices. The longer people have them, the greater the chances are that they will develop complications, some of which will require more surgery.
• Breast implants have been associated with the development of a cancer of the immune system called breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL). This cancer occurs more commonly in patients with textured breast implants than smooth implants, although rates are not well defined. Some patients have died from BIA-ALCL.
• Patients receiving breast implants have reported a variety of systemic symptoms such as joint pain, muscle aches, confusion, chronic fatigue, autoimmune diseases and others. Individual patient risk for developing these symptoms has not been well established. Some patients report complete resolution of symptoms when the implants are removed without replacement.

Proper education about the pros and cons of these implants is thus imperative, so that each patient can make the right personal decision about whether to proceed. Dr. Sorokin believes in thorough patient education, and his office staff is a tremendous resource in assisting patients both before and after surgery.

But implant material isn’t the only decision you’ll need to make about breast augmentation. Some women who visit Delaware Valley Plastic Surgery struggle to select the “right” breast implant size, while others want to learn more about surgical methods that can help minimize the appearance of scarring. Most women who come to see Dr. Sorokin in the Society Hill Philadelphia plastic surgery office are not looking for huge breasts. While some ladies indeed want to have the Dolly Parton appearance, most are looking for enhanced, body proportionally sized breasts. They are tired of having to buy mismatched bathing suit sizes and wearing padded bras all of the time and want to have breasts that are proportionately sized to their body. During your consultation, Dr. Sorokin will set aside time to answer every question, address every concern, and review your goals so that you can choose a carefully tailored augmentation procedure for pleasing results in the months and years to come.

Experience counts. It’s really that simple. In this area you won’t find another surgeon who does as many primary breast augmentations. Dr. Sorokin’s most frequent surgery is breast augmentation. Patients from all over the country travel to Southern New Jersey for a surgical experience like no other. He performs breast enhancement and breast revisional surgeries hundreds of times every year. When Dr. Sorokin initially started his practice, he performed the full range of plastic surgery procedures from cleft lips to hand surgery to wound reconstruction to breast and body. However, he quickly realized that his true passion was for breast enhancement and has directed his energies toward breast procedures. Patients throughout New Jersey, Philadelphia, Delaware, and New York looking for breast enhancement have responded well to a surgeon that focuses mainly on the breast and have been willing to drive hours for this specialization. Word has spread and now it is very common for patients to come to us from New York, Maryland, Delaware and recently we have been catering even to an international clientele.
