Dr. Salomon performs breast augmentation using saline and cohesive silicone gel implants at his South Miami practice. Implants may be placed via an inframammary incision (the preferred approach, eliminating sensation changes at the nipple), periareolar incision, or transaxillary approach.

Additional breast procedures offered include mastopexy (breast lift), breast reduction, and breast reconstruction.
