Breast Augmentation for Moore Patients: Drive, Consult, Aftercare

The drive from Moore

Our practice sits at 12400 Saint Andrew's Drive in Oklahoma City. From Moore, that is about 20 miles in a straight line — a drive, not a commute from another city. Parking is free and on-site. On surgery day, your driver pulls directly to the entrance for drop-off and pick-up. The team confirms your specific arrival time for your case, not a general clinic opening.

Consultations are available in person at the Oklahoma City office or virtual from anywhere. A virtual visit lets you have a thorough initial conversation from home. When surgery is scheduled, a single in-person pre-operative visit confirms the plan. That means most Moore patients make the drive only a handful of times through the entire process.

What happens at the consultation

Every plan here begins the same way. You meet the surgeon. You are examined. You describe what bothers you in your own words. Implant size and placement are decided together — sized to your frame, not chosen from a menu. You leave with a written plan and a written, all-in quote, both yours to keep, to decide on your own time. There is no pressure in the room and none after you leave it.

Breast augmentation is this practice's flagship procedure. The surgeons of the Tulsa Surgical Arts program operate in two Oklahoma City operating rooms inside an AAAHC-accredited surgery center. You choose your surgeon and your city — surgery happens in Oklahoma City or Tulsa.

Ask for a specific surgeon when you book, or share your goals and the team will match you. The six cosmetic surgeons of the Tulsa Surgical Arts roster all serve Oklahoma City, and Dr. Trent Fogleman practices here full-time.

The surgery itself, in plain language

An implant is a soft shell filled with salt water or silicone gel. It sits behind the breast tissue or behind the chest muscle. You and your surgeon choose the size and placement together at your visit. Surgery takes about one hour. You receive anesthesia — medicine that makes you sleep. The surgeon makes a short incision, most often in the fold under the breast. A pocket is created, the implant is placed and checked for position, and the incision is closed in layers with dissolving stitches.

You go home the same day. The practice has a private overnight guest suite at the surgery center if you and your surgeon decide an overnight stay is appropriate. For Moore patients, the drive home is short enough that same-day discharge is straightforward — as long as a responsible adult drives you.

Recovery, honestly

The first few days bring chest tightness and soreness, like a hard workout. Walk the same day. Sleep on your back. By one week, most people with desk jobs return to work. No lifting over ten pounds. By two weeks, soreness fades and light lower-body exercise is usually fine. At six weeks, full exercise — including chest workouts — is typically cleared. Implants soften and settle over months.

Follow-up visits happen at the same Oklahoma City office. Moore patients can expect a manageable drive for each check-in. The team is reachable by phone day or night if something concerns you between visits.

Risks you should read before your consult

Every surgery has risks. A firm scar shell can form around the implant — called capsular contracture — which can change shape and cause discomfort. An implant can leak or break over time; broken implants are replaced or removed. Nipple sensation can change. Breastfeeding may be affected for some women. A very rare cancer of the scar tissue around certain implants has been reported. Some patients report body-wide symptoms they link to implants; removing implants is always an option.

Other risks include bleeding, infection, visible scars, numb skin near the incisions, blood clots, anesthesia complications, uneven results, and the possible need for another surgery. Implants do not last a lifetime — plan on more surgery someday. We go over every risk with you in person. In any emergency, call 911 first.
