Here is some useful information on the procedure for breast augmentation surgery, I found it so useful...

Breast augmentation surgery — also known as augmentation mammaplasty — can be performed in a surgical center or hospital outpatient facility. You usually go home the same day, but on occasion you might require a hospital stay. Breast augmentation is usually performed under general anesthesia.
To insert the breast implant, your surgeon makes an incision in one of three places:
§ In the breast fold. An inframammary incision runs along the crease between the underside of your breast and your chest.
§ Around the nipple. A periareolar incision follows the natural line of the dark skin around your nipple (areola). This incision may leave a less noticeable scar than does the inframammary incision, but it might also impact your ability to breast-feed or affect sensation in your nipple.
§ Under the arm. The axillary incision is made in your armpit.
Breast implants may be smooth or textured, round or shaped like a teardrop. They consist of a silicone shell filled with salt water (saline) or silicone gel. For a number of years, only saline-filled implants were available for cosmetic use. But in November 2006, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved silicone gel-filled implants for breast augmentation. This means that you now have a choice between saline-filled or silicone gel-filled breast implants. Your doctor can help you decide which type would be better for you.
After making the incision, the surgeon lifts your skin and tissue to create a pocket either behind the breast glandular tissue or behind the muscle in your chest (pectoral muscle). The surgeon inserts the implant and centers it behind your nipple. Saline implants, when inserted, are empty. The surgeon fills the implant with sterile saline once it's in place. Silicone implants are already filled at the time they're placed.
Breast augmentation surgery generally lasts one to two hours.
