Breast Augmentation Details
The goal of
breast augmentation is to increase the fullness and projection of the
breast such that it improves the balance in a woman’s figure.
What is Breast Augmentation?
Breast
augmentation enlarges a woman’s breasts through the surgical placement
of breast implants. It is a cosmetic procedure performed to fulfill
personal expectations or restore the loss of breast volume after weight
loss or pregnancy.
The two main types of implants used for
breast augmentation are saline and silicone gel. Saline implants are
made of smooth silicone shells filled with a sterile saline solution.
Should saline implants rupture or leak, the saline is safely absorbed
by the body. Silicone gel implants are also made of a smooth silicone
shells, however, they are filled with a sterile silicone gel. Both
types of implants have been approved by the FDA.
Implant placement, type, and size will be determined based on your breast anatomy, body type, and desired increase in size.
Following
surgery, initial healing may include swelling and discomfort that can
be controlled with medication. A support bra may be recommended
postoperatively. A return to light, normal activities is possible as
soon as you feel ready, usually a day or two after surgery. Often, you
may return to work within 5-10 days.
Results of breast
augmentation are immediately visible. Soon you will be comfortable and
confident with your new body. Incision lines will continue to fade
over time. However, you should be aware that your breasts may change
over time with normal aging.
