I am a Utah Plastic Surgeon - Breast augmentation can be done with breast implants. There are other methods (none of which are mainstream or work terribly well at this point) including the Brava system and structural fat grafting.

Breast Augmentation, Breast enhancement also known as mammaplasty is the medical term for breast enlargement, this type of plastic surgery involves placing silicone or saline breast implants either behind the breast tissue or beneath the chest muscle to add size, shape, and fullness to the breast. Breast augmentation can be performed to make smaller breasts appear larger, balance breasts that are asymmetrical, or restore fullness that has diminished with age or as a result of pregnancy.

Breast enlargement surgery and breast augmentation are different terms for the same procedure. The procedure increases breast size using implants. There are several different options, including implant type, size, shape, and placement, and incision location.

There is no difference aside form appropriate word usage. For example, while receiving breast augmentation surgery, the patient receives breast implants to increase her bust size. It's similar to Child Birth and Labor. Once could say that they are about to give birth or one could say they are going into labor. Both produce the same results, it just describes a different action.
