See What's Possible
Awake Breast Augmentation vs. General Anesthesia
A major distinguishing factor in the way that Dr. Barone performs breast surgery is her approach to anesthesia and sedation. Breast augmentation is typically performed under general anesthesia, which essentially means the patient sleeps throughout the procedure. But whenever possible, Dr. Barone prefers to only use local anesthetic to numb the area. This approach is called "awake surgery" and it offers a number of benefits while still ensuring your comfort:
- No "hangover," a typical side effect of general anesthesia
- Less disorientation after surgery
- Minimal nausea, if any
- Can return to normal activities more quickly

Motiva® Breast Implants in San Antonio The Next Generation of Softness, Safety, and Natural Movement
At Barone Plastic Surgery, we understand that a successful breast augmentation is defined by how a patient feels, not just how they look. Dr. Constance Barone is proud to offer Motiva® Breast Implants to our San Antonio patients.
As a pioneer in surgical techniques like the TUBA (transumbilical) "awake" breast augmentation, Dr. Barone selects the most innovative materials to ensure her patients achieve natural soft results that have the highest safety standards available.
Integrating Motiva With Dr. Barone's Signature Techniques
Dr. Barone's approach to breast surgery is centered on minimizing downtime and maximizing comfort. Motiva implants integrate perfectly with her specialized offerings:
The TUBA Compatibility: For patients choosing the "Belly Button" (transumbilical) approach, Motiva's highly flexible shells and cohesive gels allow for precise placement with minimal scarring.
The "Awake" Experience: Because Motiva procedures are streamlined and efficient, they are excellent candidates for Dr. Barone's local anesthesia with sedation (awake) protocol, which avoids the side effects of general anesthesia.
High-Definition Results: Whether you are looking for a modest "refresh" or a significant increase in volume, Motiva's wide range of profiles allows Dr. Barone to "structure" your results to match your frame perfectly.
Is Motiva Right for You?
During your private consultation, Dr. Barone will use her 30+ years of expertise to help you choose the right implant. Motiva is often the top choice for: Patients seeking the softest possible feel. Active women who want an implant that moves naturally during exercise. Those who prioritize the latest in safety and digital tracking technology.
Your Journey to Confidence
Your breast augmentation at Barone Plastic Surgery is more than just a procedure; it is a personalized experience guided by one of the most respected female plastic surgeons in Texas.
We Offer Several Types of Breast Implants
We offer four types of breast implants at our San Antonio practice: saline, silicone gel, MemoryGel BOOST, and gummy bear implants. Each type has unique characteristics that can benefit you, depending on your unique cosmetic goals:
Saline implants are made of a silicone shell filled with a saltwater solution (saline). Since they are filled post-operatively, saline breast implants provide more incision options. One is the TUBA technique, which places implants via an incision in the belly button for virtually no visible scarring.
Silicone implants consist of a silicone shell that is pre-filled with silicone gel rather than saline. The silicone gel imitates the feel of fat, giving the implants a natural look and feel. However, Dr. Barone is experienced at making both saline and silicone implants look completely natural.
MemoryGel BOOST implants are cohesive gel implants developed by MENTOR®. Made in the USA, MemoryGel BOOST implants provide a natural feel as well as greater stability when it comes to breast shape. This results in breasts that look and move more like natural breast tissue.
Gummy bear breast implants are silicone implants filled with cohesive gel with a texture similar to that of the candy these implants are named after. Gummy bear implants have a teardrop shape, giving them an incredibly natural-looking appearance.
Looking for a
Completely Natural Solution?
We Offer Natural Breast Augmentation
A natural breast augmentation uses excess fat from another area of the body and injects it into the breasts. Dr. Barone can expertly graft the transplanted breast tissue to enhance breast size, improve symmetry, and create a fuller bustline. Breast injections can create stunning results, especially when combined with a breast lift. Many patients can achieve their cosmetic goals without the need for implants.
How Dr. Barone Minimizes Visible Scarring
Many patients are concerned about the scars they may have after breast augmentation. Our plastic surgeon takes measures to ensure your scars are easily hidden. She can use one of several incision types to help create the most natural-looking results:
- Periareolar: An incision made around the areola.
- Transaxillary: An incision made in the armpit.
- TUBA: An incision made in the navel. This incision is only available with saline implants.
- Inframammary: An incision made in the crease below your breast.
Real Patients, Real Results
Curious what TUBA breast augmentation looks like? In one case, Dr. Barone placed saline implants, which were inserted through a small incision made in the belly button. The result was an increased breast size, enhanced breast shape, and overall more feminine figure with no visible scarring. See the patient’s results and more in our gallery.
Breast Augmentation Recovery Involves Minimal Downtime
Typically, a full recovery takes around four to six weeks. However, your recovery will depend on multiple factors like your incision type, implant placement, and your ability to heal. Dr. Barone will give you aftercare instructions and let you know when you can return to exercise and other activities.
