Small Breast Augmentation
Small Breast Augmentation in Las Vegas and Henderson, NV | Ballerina Breast Augmentation with Dr. Arthur Cambeiro
At SurgiSpa Cosmetic and Plastic Surgery, we understand that beauty is not one-size-fits-all. For some women, the goal of breast augmentation is not about going significantly larger. Rather, it’s about refinement, balance, and subtle elegance. That’s where small breast augmentation, often referred to as ballerina breast augmentation, comes into play.

Whether you’re considering downsizing from larger implants or are a first-time patient seeking a graceful, understated look, Dr. Cambeiro can help you achieve natural-looking, beautifully proportioned results.

What Is Small or “Ballerina” Breast Augmentation?
Small breast augmentation is a form of enhancement using smaller-volume implants, typically ranging from 100cc to 275cc, that provide subtle volume without compromising mobility, athletic performance, or personal style. The term ballerina augmentation reflects the look many patients desire – slim, refined, elegant, and timeless.
This procedure is ideal for women who:
- Live active lifestyles and want to remain agile and physically unrestricted
- Are looking for modest, natural enhancement
- Want to correct asymmetry or restore volume after pregnancy or weight loss
- Are downsizing from larger implants to better suit their current lifestyle
Why Are Patients Choosing Smaller Implants or Implant Removal?
At SurgiSpa, we are seeing a growing trend in patients requesting implant removal or downsizing. These patients are not dissatisfied – they’re simply evolving. Their goals, body image, and lifestyle may have changed, and they want their breasts to reflect that transformation.
Reasons more women are seeking smaller implants include:
- Lifestyle Shifts: Whether it’s a return to fitness, yoga, or high-impact sports, smaller implants offer comfort and ease of movement.
- Fashion Fit: Smaller implants often allow for a broader range of clothing styles, especially minimalist or form-fitting fashion.
- Mature Aesthetic: Many women feel that smaller breasts appear more youthful, sophisticated, and aligned with their current stage in life.
- Long-Term Comfort: Downsizing or choosing smaller implants can reduce potential stress on the skin and minimize risks such as sagging or implant displacement over time.

Small (Ballerina) Breast Augmentation FAQ
We know that every patient considering breast enhancement – especially a more subtle and refined approach – has unique questions. Here are some of the most common questions we receive about small breast augmentation and implant downsizing at SurgiSpa in Las Vegas and Henderson.
Small breast implants typically range between 100cc and 275cc, depending on your frame and anatomy. Dr. Cambeiro will help you visualize different sizes during your consultation using sizers and before-and-after images. For Dr. Cambeiro, the goal is always proportionate enhancement that complements your natural shape.
You may be an excellent candidate if:
- You are in good health and close to your ideal weight
- You want a natural, understated enhancement
- You lead an active lifestyle and prefer a smaller, lighter implant
- You’re considering downsizing from a previous augmentation
- You desire symmetry, volume restoration, or subtle contouring
If you’re unsure whether small breast augmentation is the right option for you, Dr. Cambeiro will help you evaluate your goals and guide you to the safest and most effective path forward.
Absolutely. Many of our patients are returning to remove or replace older implants with smaller ones. Dr. Cambeiro specializes in breast implant revision surgery, including implant removal and replacement. He’ll assess your current implants and breast tissue and create a custom plan that supports your aesthetic goals, whether that includes a lift, reshaping, or downsizing.
Yes! Even small implants can provide a meaningful, beautiful change. Many patients are surprised how a modest increase in volume improves their proportions, posture, and confidence, without looking “overdone.” The goal is always to enhance your natural beauty, not change who you are.
In most cases, yes. Dr. Cambeiro uses techniques that preserve the milk ducts and nerves, particularly when implants are placed under the muscle (submuscular placement). However, your future plans to have children in the future are a great topic to discuss during your consultation.
Sometimes. If you are removing larger implants and have stretched skin or sagging tissue, a breast lift (mastopexy) may be recommended to restore your natural shape and position. During your consultation, Dr. Cambeiro will examine your breast tissue and skin elasticity to help you determine whether a lift should be performed at the same time as implant downsizing or if you would be better served by staged procedures.
Recovery is often easier and faster with smaller implants compared to larger ones. Most patients experience:
- Minor swelling and soreness for a few days
- Return to light activity within 3 to 5 days
- Return to full exercise and lifting within 3 to 4 weeks
You’ll be provided with post-op care instructions and have access to our open-door policy, which means we’re here anytime you have a question or concern.
Breast implants are not lifetime devices no matter their size. Many implants can last 10 to 20 years or longer with no issues. Dr. Cambeiro recommends annual check-ins and monitoring through imaging, such as ultrasound or MRI if using silicone, to ensure everything remains safe and intact. If you ever wish to update or remove your implants, you’ll be in experienced hands.
Both saline and silicone implants are FDA-approved and safe for use. However, most patients seeking a natural, subtle look prefer silicone implants for their soft, tissue-like feel. Dr. Cambeiro will walk you through the pros and cons of each, including shape, texture, and longevity.
The best way to begin is by scheduling a complimentary consultation with Dr. Cambeiro. During your visit, you’ll discuss your goals and lifestyle, try on implant sizers, and receive a customized treatment plan designed just for you.
